1 Crônicas 10
1 Now os filisteus lutaram contra Israel; e os homens de Israel fugiram de antes dos filisteus, e caíram mortos no Monte Gilboa.
The army of Philistia [again] fought against the Israelis. The Israeli soldiers ran away from them, and many Israelis were killed {the soldiers of Philistia killed many Israelis} on Gilboa Mountain.
2 Os filisteus seguiram duramente após Saul e seus filhos; e os filisteus mataram Jonathan, Abinadab e Malchishua, os filhos de Saul.
The soldiers of Philistia caught up with Saul and his sons, and they killed his sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua.
3 A batalha foi dura contra Saul, e os arqueiros o dominaram; e ele ficou angustiado por causa dos arqueiros.
The fighting was very fierce around Saul, and the (archers/men who shot arrows) shot Saul and wounded him severely.
4 Então Saul disse a seu portador de armadura: “Saque sua espada e me empurre com ela, para que estes incircuncisos não venham e abusem de mim”. Mas seu portador de armadura não o faria, pois ele estava aterrorizado. Por isso Saul pegou sua espada e caiu em cima dela.
Saul said to the man who was carrying his weapons, “Take out your sword and kill me with it, in order that these heathen Philistines will not be able to injure me [further] and make fun of me [while I am dying].” But the man who was carrying Saul’s weapons was terrified and refused to do that. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it [and died].
5 Quando seu portador de armadura viu que Saul estava morto, ele também caiu sobre sua espada e morreu.
When the man carrying his weapons saw that Saul was dead, he also threw himself on his own sword and died.
6 Assim, Saul morreu com seus três filhos; e toda a sua casa morreu junto.
So Saul and three of his sons all died, and none of his descendants ever became king.
7 Quando todos os homens de Israel que estavam no vale viram que fugiram, e que Saul e seus filhos estavam mortos, abandonaram suas cidades, e fugiram; e os filisteus vieram e viveram nelas.
When the Israelis who were living in the valley saw that their army had run away and that Saul and his three sons were dead, they left their towns and ran away. Then the soldiers from Philistia came and (occupied/lived in) those towns.
8 No dia seguinte, quando os filisteus vieram para despojar os mortos, encontraram Saul e seus filhos caídos no Monte Gilboa.
The next day, when the Philistines came to take away the weapons of the dead [Israeli soldiers], they found the corpses of Saul and his three sons on Gilboa Mountain.
9 Eles o despojaram e levaram sua cabeça e sua armadura, depois mandaram para a terra dos filisteus por toda parte para levar a notícia a seus ídolos e ao povo.
They took the clothes off Saul’s corpse and [cut off] his head and took it and Saul’s armor.
10 Eles colocaram sua armadura na casa de seus deuses, e prenderam sua cabeça na casa de Dagon.
Then they sent messengers throughout their land, to proclaim the news throughout their own area, to their idols and to the other people. They put Saul’s armor in the temple where their idols were, and they hung Saul’s head in the temple of [their god] Dagon.
11 Quando todo Jabesh Gilead ouviu tudo o que os filisteus tinham feito a Saul,
All the people who lived in Jabesh in [the] Gilead [region] heard what the Philistines had done to Saul’s [corpse].
12 todos os homens valentes se levantaram e levaram o corpo de Saul e os corpos de seus filhos, e os trouxeram a Jabesh, e enterraram seus ossos debaixo do carvalho em Jabesh, e jejuaram sete dias.
So the bravest men/soldiers of Jabesh went and got the corpses of Saul and his sons and brought them back to Jabesh. They buried their bones under a large tree in Jabesh. Then the people of Jabesh (fasted/abstained from eating food) for seven days.
13 Então Saul morreu por sua transgressão que cometeu contra Javé, por causa da palavra de Javé, que ele não cumpriu, e também porque pediu conselho a alguém que tinha um espírito familiar, para perguntar,
Saul died because he did not faithfully obey what Yahweh told him to do. He even went to a woman who talks to the spirits of dead people and asked her what he should do,
14 e não perguntou de Javé. Portanto, ele o matou e entregou o reino a David, o filho de Jessé.
instead of asking Yahweh what he should do. So Yahweh caused him to die, and he appointed David, the son of Jesse, to be the king [of Israel].
