Первая книга Царств 31
1 И иноплеменницы воеваху на Израиля, и бежаша мужие Израилевы от лица иноплеменнича, и падаху язвеннии на горе Гелвуе.
And the Philistines fought with Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and they fall down wounded in the mountain in Gelbue.
2 И снидошася иноплеменницы с Саулом и с сынми его, и убиша иноплеменницы Ионафана и Аминадава и Мелхисуа, сыны Сауловы.
And the Philistines press closely on Saul and his sons, and the Philistines smite Jonathan, and Aminadab, and Melchisa son of Saul.
3 И отяготе брань на Саула, и обретоша его копейницы мужие стрелцы, и уязвен бысть (Саул) во утробу.
And the battle prevails against Saul, and the shooters with arrows, even the archers find him, and he was wounded under the ribs.
4 И рече Саул к носящему оружие его: изсуни мечь твой и прободи мя им, да не приидут необрезаннии сии и избодут мя, и поругаются мне. И не хотяше носяй оружие его, яко убояся зело. И взя Саул мечь свой и паде на него.
And Saul said to his armour-bearer, Draw thy sword and pierce me through with it; lest these uncircumcised come and pierce me through, and mock me. But his armour-bearer would not, for he feared greatly: so Saul took his sword and fell upon it.
5 И виде носяй оружие его, яко умре Саул, и паде и той на мечь свой и умре с ним.
And his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, and he fell also himself upon his sword, and died with him.
6 И умре Саул и трие сынове его, и носяй оружие его, и вси мужие его в день той купно.
So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armour-bearer, in that day together.
7 И видеша мужие Израилстии, иже об он пол юдоли и иже об он пол Иордана, яко бежаша мужие Израилстии, и яко умре Саул и сынове его, и оставиша грады своя и бежаша: и приидоша иноплеменницы и вселишася в них.
And the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those beyond Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead; and they leave their cities and flee: and the Philistines come and dwell in them.
8 И бысть на утрие, и приидоша иноплеменницы обнажити мертвых, и обретоша Саула и три сыны его падшыя на горе Гелвуе,
And it came to pass on the morrow that the Philistines come to strip the dead, and they find Saul and his three sons fallen on the mountains of Gelbue.
9 и обратиша его, и сняша оружие его, и отсекоша главу его, и послаша в землю иноплеменничу окрест возвещающе идолом их и людем их:
And they turned him, and stripped off his armour, and sent it into the land of the Philistines, sending round glad tidings to their idols and to the people.
10 и положиша оружие его у Астарта, тело же его воткнуша на стене Вефсамли.
And they set up his armour at the temple of Astarte, and they fastened his body on the wall of Baethsam.
11 И услышаша живущии во Иависе Галаадитийстем, яже сотвориша иноплеменницы Саулу,
And the inhabitants of Jabis Galaad hear what the Philistines did to Saul.
12 и восташа вси мужие сильнии, и идоша всю нощь, и взяша тело Саулово и тело Ионафана сына его с стены Вефсамски, и принесоша я во Иавис, и сожгоша я тамо:
And they rose up, [even] every man of might, and marched all night, and took the body of Saul and the body of Jonathan his son from the wall of Baethsam; and they bring them to Jabis, and burn them there.
13 и взяша кости их, и погребоша я в дубраве яже во Иависе, и постишася седмь дний.
And they take their bones, and bury them in the field that is in Jabis, and fast seven days.
