اول سموئیل 30
| بعد از سه روز، داوود و افرادش به صقلغ رسیدند. قبل از آن، عَمالیقی‌ها به جنوب یهودا هجوم آورده، شهر صقلغ را به آتش کشیده بودند | 1 |
And it came to pass when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, that the 'Amalekites had invaded the south, and Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag, and burnt it with fire;
| و زنان و تمام کسانی را که در آنجا بودند، از کوچک و بزرگ به اسارت برده و هیچ‌کس را نکشته بودند، بلکه همه را برداشته، به راه خود رفته بودند. | 2 |
And had taken captive the women that were therein, both great and small: they had not slain any one, but had led them off, and gone on their way.
| داوود و افرادش وقتی به شهر رسیدند و دیدند چه بر سر زنها و بچه‌هایشان آمده است، | 3 |
When therefore David and his men came to the city, behold, it was burnt with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, had been taken captive.
| با صدای بلند آنقدر گریه کردند که دیگر رمقی برایشان باقی نماند. | 4 |
And David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep.
| هر دو زن داوود، اخینوعم و اَبیجایِل هم جزو اسیران بودند. | 5 |
And the two wives of David were also taken captive, Achino'am the Yizre'elitess, and Abigayil the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
| داوود بسیار مضطرب بود، زیرا افرادش به خاطر از دست دادن بچه‌هایشان از شدت ناراحتی می‌خواستند او را سنگسار کنند. اما داوود خویشتن را از خداوند، خدایش تقویت کرد. | 6 |
And David was greatly distressed; for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was imbittered, every man for his sons and for his daughters; but David fortified himself in the Lord his God.
| داوود به اَبیاتار کاهن گفت: «ایفود را پیش من بیاور!» اَبیاتار آن را آورد. | 7 |
And David said to Ebyathar the priest, the son of Achimelech, Bring hither, I pray thee, unto me the ephod. And Ebyathar brought the ephod near unto David.
| داوود از خداوند پرسید: «آیا دشمن را تعقیب کنم؟ آیا به آنها خواهم رسید؟» خداوند به او فرمود: «بله، آنها را تعقیب کن، چون به آنها خواهی رسید و آنچه را که برده‌اند پس خواهی گرفت!» | 8 |
And David asked counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop! shall I overtake them? And he said to him, Pursue; for thou wilt surely overtake them, and certainly recover [all].
| پس داوود و آن ششصد نفر به تعقیب عَمالیقی‌ها پرداختند. وقتی به نهر بسور رسیدند، دویست نفر از افراد داوود از فرط خستگی نتوانستند از آن عبور کنند، اما چهارصد نفر دیگر به تعقیب دشمن ادامه دادند. | 9 |
So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and came up to the brook Bessor, where those that were left behind stayed.
| 10 |
But David pursued on, he and four hundred men; and there stayed behind two hundred men, who were too fatigued to go over the brook Bessor.
| در بین راه به یک جوان مصری برخوردند و او را نزد داوود آوردند. او سه شبانه روز چیزی نخورده و نیاشامیده بود. آنها مقداری نان انجیری، دو نان کشمشی و آب به او دادند و جان او تازه شد. | 11 |
And they found an Egyptian man in the field, and took him to David, and gave him bread, and he did eat; and they made him drink water;
| 12 |
And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and two clusters of raisins, and he ate, and then his spirit returned to him; for he had not eaten any bread, nor drunk any water, three days and three nights.
| داوود از او پرسید: «تو کیستی و از کجا می‌آیی؟» گفت: «من مصری و نوکر یک شخص عَمالیقی هستم. اربابم سه روز پیش مرا در اینجا رها نمود و رفت، چون مریض بودم. | 13 |
And David said unto him, To whom belongest thou? and whence art thou? And he said, I am a young Egyptian man, the servant to an 'Amalekite; and my master left me behind, because I fell sick, today three days ago.
| ما به جنوب سرزمین کریتی‌ها واقع در جنوب یهودا و سرزمین قبیلهٔ کالیب هجوم بردیم و شهر صقلغ را سوزاندیم.» | 14 |
We made an invasion upon the south of the Kerethites, and upon that which belongeth to Judah, and upon the south of Caleb; and Ziklag did we burn with fire.
| داوود از او پرسید: «آیا می‌توانی ما را به آن گروه برسانی؟» آن جوان پاسخ داد: «اگر به نام خدا قسم بخورید که مرا نکشید و یا مرا به اربابم پس ندهید حاضرم شما را راهنمایی کنم تا به آنها برسید.» | 15 |
And David said to him, Wilt thou bring me down to this troop? And he said, Swear unto me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, and that thou wilt not surrender me into the hand of my master, and then will I bring thee down to this troop.
| پس او داوود و همراهانش را به اردوگاه دشمن راهنمایی کرد. عَمالیقی‌ها در مزارع پخش شده، می‌خوردند و می‌نوشیدند و می‌رقصیدند، چون از فلسطینی‌ها و مردم یهودا غنایم فراوانی به چنگ آورده بودند. | 16 |
And he brought him down; and behold, they were scattered over the face of all the country, eating and drinking, and dancing for joy, because of all the great spoil which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
| همان شب داوود و همراهانش بر آنها هجوم برده، تا غروب روز بعد، ایشان را از دم شمشیر گذراندند، به طوری که فقط چهارصد نفر از آنها باقی ماندند که بر شتران خود سوار شده، گریختند. | 17 |
And David smote them from the twilight even unto the evening of the next day; and there escaped not a man of them, save four hundred young men, who rode upon camels, and fled.
| داوود تمام غنایم را از عمالیقی‌ها پس گرفت. آنها زنان و اطفال و همهٔ متعلقات خود را بدون کم و کسر پس گرفتند و داوود دو زن خود را نجات داد. | 18 |
And David recovered all that the 'Amalekites had taken away; and his two wives also did David rescue.
| 19 |
And there was nothing missing to them, from small to great, as also sons and daughters, and spoil, down to every thing that they had taken from them: the whole did David bring back.
| افراد داوود تمام گله‌ها و رمه‌ها را گرفته، پیشاپیش خود می‌راندند و می‌گفتند: «همهٔ اینها غنایم داوود است.» | 20 |
And David took all the flocks and the herds: these they drove before those other cattle, and said, This is David's spoil.
| سپس داوود نزد آن دویست نفر خسته‌ای که کنار نهر بسور مانده بودند، رفت. آنها به استقبال داوود و همراهانش آمدند و داوود با آنها احوالپرسی کرد. | 21 |
And David came to the two hundred men, who had been too fatigued to follow after David, and whom they had left to remain at the brook Bessor: and they went forth to meet David, and to meet the people that were with him; and David came near to the people, and asked them after their well-being.
| اما بعضی از افراد شروری که در میان مردان داوود بودند گفتند: «آنها همراه ما نیامدند، بنابراین از این غنیمت هم سهمی ندارند. زنان و بچه‌هایشان را به آنها واگذارید و بگذارید بروند.» | 22 |
Then exclaimed every wicked and worthless man, of those that had gone with David, and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them aught of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, and these they may lead away, and go.
| اما داوود گفت: «نه، برادران من! با آنچه خداوند به ما داده است چنین عمل نکنید. خداوند ما را سلامت نگاه داشته و کمک کرده است تا دشمن را شکست دهیم. | 23 |
Then said David, Ye must not do so, my brethren; since the Lord hath given us this, and guarded us, and delivered the troop that came against us into our hand.
| من با آنچه شما می‌گویید موافق نیستم. همهٔ ما به طور یکسان از این غنیمت سهم خواهیم برد. کسانی که به میدان جنگ می‌روند و آنانی که در اردوگاه نزد اسباب و اثاثیه می‌مانند سهم هر دو مساوی است.» | 24 |
And who will hearken unto you in this matter? but as is the part of him that went down to the battle, so shall be the part of him that remained with the baggage: together must they share.
| از آن زمان به بعد این حکم داوود در اسرائیل به صورت یک قانون درآمد که تا به امروز هم به قوت خود باقی است. | 25 |
And it happened from that day and forward, that he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel until this day.
| وقتی که داوود به صقلغ رسید، قسمتی از غنایم جنگی را برای بزرگان یهودا که دوستانش بودند، فرستاد و گفت: «این هدیه‌ای است که از دشمنان خداوند به دست آورده‌ایم.» | 26 |
And when David came to Ziklag, he sent of the spoil unto the elders of Judah, to his friends, saying, Behold, here is a present for you from the spoil of the enemies of the Lord:
| داوود برای این شهرها نیز که خود و همراهانش قبلاً در آنجا بودند هدایا فرستاد: بیت‌ئیل، راموت در جنوب یهودا، یتیر، عروعیر، سفموت، اشتموع، راکال، شهرهای یرحم‌ئیلیان، شهرهای قینیان، حرمه، بورعاشان، عتاق و حبرون. | 27 |
To those who were in Beth-el, and to those who were in south Ramoth, and to those who were in Yattir,
| 28 |
And to those who were in 'Aro'er, and to those who were in Siphmoth, and to those who were in Eshtemoa',
| 29 |
And to those who were in Rachal, and to those who were in the cities of Yerach-meelites, and to those who were in the cities of the Kenites,
| 30 |
And to those who were in Chormah, and to those who were in Kor-'ashan, and to those who were in 'Athach,
| 31 |
And to those who were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men had wandered about.
