1 शमुवेल 31
Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
2 २ पलिष्टी शौलाच्या व त्याच्या मुलांच्या पाठीस लागले; आणि पलिष्टयांनी शौलाचे पुत्र योनाथान व अबीनादाब व मलकीशुवा यांना जिवे मारले.
And the Philistines followed hard upon Saul and upon his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul.
And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was greatly distressed by reason of the archers.
4 ४ तेव्हा शौल आपल्या शस्त्रवाहकाला म्हणाला, “तू आपली तलवार उपसून तिने मला आरपार भोसक नाही तर हे बेसुंती येऊन मला भोसकून माझी विटंबना करतील.” परंतु त्याचा शस्त्रवाहक मान्य होईना, कारण तो फार भ्याला. म्हणून शौल आपली तलवार घेऊन तिच्यावर पडला.
Then said Saul to his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. Therefore Saul took his sword, and fell upon it.
And when his armourbearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell upon his sword, and died with him.
So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armourbearer, and all his men, that same day together.
7 ७ इस्राएलांची माणसे पळाली आणि शौल व त्याचे पुत्र मरण पावले, हे इस्राएलाची माणसे खोऱ्याच्या पलीकडे व यार्देनेच्या पलीकडे होती त्यांनी पाहिले; तेव्हा ती आपली नगरे सोडून पळाली; मग पलिष्टी येऊन त्यामध्ये राहिले.
And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the valley, and they that were beyond Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
8 ८ दुसऱ्या दिवशी असे झाले की, पलिष्टी मेलेल्यांची वस्त्रे लुटायला आले तेव्हा त्यांना शौल व त्याचे तिघे पुत्र गिलबोवा डोंगरात पडलेले सापडले.
And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his three sons fallen in mount Gilboa.
9 ९ तेव्हा त्यांनी त्यांचे शिर छेदून त्याची शस्त्रे काढली आणि पलिष्ट्यांच्या देशात चहूकडे त्यांच्या मूर्तीच्या देवळात व लोकांस हे वर्तमान कळवायला त्यांनी माणसे पाठवली.
And they cut off his head, and stripped off his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry the tidings unto the house of their idols, and to the people.
10 १० त्यांनी त्याची शस्त्रे अष्टारोथाच्या मंदिरात ठेवली आणि त्यांनी त्यांचे प्रेत बेथ-शानाच्या भिंतीस टांगले.
And they put his armour in the house of the Ashtaroth: and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth-shan.
And when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard concerning him that which the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 १२ तेव्हा सर्व शूर पुरुष उठून रात्रभर चालत गेले आणि त्यांनी शौलाचे प्रेत व त्याच्या मुलांची प्रेते बेथ-शानाच्या भिंतीवरून काढून याबेशाला आणले व तेथे ती जाळली.
all the valiant men arose, and went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth-shan; and they came to Jabesh, and burnt them there.
And they took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
