< 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 |
It happened, when David and his men had come to Ziklag on the third day, that Amalek had made a raid on the Negev, and on Ziklag, and had struck Ziklag, and burned 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 and all who were in it, both small and great. They did not kill any, but carried them off, and went their way.
داوود و افرادش وقتی به شهر رسیدند و دیدند چه بر سر زنها و بچههایشان آمده است، | 3 |
When David and his men came to the city, look, it was burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captive.
با صدای بلند آنقدر گریه کردند که دیگر رمقی برایشان باقی نماند. | 4 |
Then David and the people who 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 |
David's two wives were taken captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelite and Abigail 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 |
David was greatly distressed; for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David strengthened himself in Jehovah his God.
داوود به اَبیاتار کاهن گفت: «ایفود را پیش من بیاور!» اَبیاتار آن را آورد. | 7 |
David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, "Please bring me here the ephod." Abiathar brought the ephod to 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 |
David inquired of Jehovah, saying, "If I pursue after this troop, shall I overtake them?" He answered him, "Pursue; for you shall surely overtake them, and shall without fail 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 who were with him, and came to the Wadi Besor, where those who were left behind stayed.
But David pursued, he and four hundred men; for two hundred stayed behind, who were so faint that they couldn't cross the Wadi Besor.
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 |
They found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David, and gave him bread, and he ate; and they gave him water to drink.
They gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and two clusters of raisins. When he had eaten, his spirit came again to him; for he had eaten no 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 |
David asked him, "To whom do you belong? Where are you from?" He said, "I am a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days ago I fell sick.
ما به جنوب سرزمین کریتیها واقع در جنوب یهودا و سرزمین قبیلهٔ کالیب هجوم بردیم و شهر صقلغ را سوزاندیم.» | 14 |
We made a raid on the Negev of the Kerethites, and on that which belongs to Judah, and on the Negev of Caleb; and we burned Ziklag 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 |
David said to him, "Will you bring me down to this troop?" He said, "Swear to me by God that you will neither kill me, nor deliver me up into the hands of my master, and I will bring you down to this troop." And he swore to him.
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 |
When he had brought him down, look, they were spread around over all the ground, eating, drinking, and dancing, because of all the great spoil that 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 |
David struck them from the twilight even to the evening of the next day and he put them to death. Not a man of them escaped from there, except four hundred young men, who rode on 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 |
He recovered all that the Amalekites had taken; and David rescued his two wives.
There was nothing lacking to them, neither small nor great, neither sons nor daughters, neither spoil, nor anything that they had taken to them. David brought back all.
افراد داوود تمام گلهها و رمهها را گرفته، پیشاپیش خود میراندند و میگفتند: «همهٔ اینها غنایم داوود است.» | 20 |
He took all the flocks and the herds, which they drove before those other livestock, 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 |
David came to the two hundred men, who were so faint that they could not follow David, whom he also had made to stay at the Wadi Besor; and they went forth to meet David, and to meet the people who were with him. And when David came near to the people, he greeted them.
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 every wicked and worthless one of the men who had gone with David answered, and they said, "Because they did not go with us, we will not give them anything of the spoil that we have recovered, except to each man his wife and his children. And let them take them, and depart."
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 David said, "You shall not do so after what Jehovah has given to us, who has preserved us, and delivered into our hand the raiding party that came against us.
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 |
So who will listen to you in this matter? For they are not inferior to you. For as his share is who goes down to the battle, so will his share be who remains with the supplies; they will share alike."
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 |
It was so from that day forward, that he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel to 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 |
When David came to Ziklag, he sent of the spoil to the elders of Judah and to his friends, saying, "Look, a present for you of the spoil of the enemies of Jehovah."
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 |
He sent it to those who were in Bethel, and to those who were in Ramath Negev, and to those who were in Jattir,
and to those who were in Aroer, and to those who were in Siphmoth, and to those who were in Eshtemoa,
and to those who were in Racal, and to those who were in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, and to those who were in the cities of the Kenizzites.
and to those who were in Hormah, and to those who were in Bor Ashan, and to those who were in Athach,
and to those who were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men used to stay.
