ISTORIA LUI DAVID
Capitolele 10—29. (2 Samuel 23:3-5.)
Moartea lui Saul
10 Filistenii(A) s-au luptat cu Israel, şi oamenii lui Israel au luat-o la fugă înaintea filistenilor şi au căzut morţi pe muntele Ghilboa. 2 Filistenii au urmărit pe Saul şi pe fiii lui şi au ucis pe Ionatan, Abinadab şi Malchi-Şua, fiii lui Saul. 3 Învălmăşeala luptei a prins şi pe Saul; arcaşii l-au ajuns şi l-au rănit. 4 Saul a zis atunci celui ce-i ducea armele: „Scoate-ţi sabia şi străpunge-mă cu ea, ca nu cumva să vină aceşti netăiaţi împrejur să mă batjocorească.” Cel ce-i ducea armele n-a voit, căci se temea. Şi Saul şi-a luat sabia şi s-a aruncat în ea. 5 Cel ce ducea armele lui Saul, văzându-l mort, s-a aruncat şi el în sabia lui şi a murit. 6 Astfel au pierit Saul şi cei trei fii ai lui, şi toată casa lui a pierit în acelaşi timp. 7 Toţi bărbaţii lui Israel care erau în vale, văzând fuga şi văzând că Saul şi fiii lui au murit, şi-au părăsit cetăţile şi au fugit şi ei. Şi filistenii au venit şi s-au aşezat acolo. 8 A doua zi, filistenii au venit să jefuiască morţii şi au găsit pe Saul şi pe fiii lui căzuţi pe muntele Ghilboa. 9 L-au jefuit şi i-au luat capul şi armele. Apoi au trimis să dea de ştire prin toată ţara filistenilor, idolilor lor şi poporului. 10 Au pus(B) armele lui Saul în casa dumnezeului lor şi i-au atârnat ţeasta capului în templul lui Dagon. 11 Când au auzit toţi locuitorii din Iabesul din Galaad tot ce au făcut filistenii lui Saul, 12 s-au sculat toţi oamenii viteji, au luat trupul lui Saul şi trupurile fiilor lui şi le-au dus la Iabes. Le-au îngropat oasele sub stejar, la Iabes, şi au postit şapte zile. 13 Saul a murit pentru că s-a făcut vinovat de fărădelege faţă de Domnul, al cărui cuvânt(C) nu l-a păzit, şi pentru că a întrebat şi a cerut sfatul celor ce cheamă morţii. 14 N-a întrebat pe Domnul, de aceea Domnul l-a omorât, şi împărăţia a dat-o(D) lui David, fiul lui Isai.
1 Chronicles 10
King James Version
10 Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
2 And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
3 And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him, and he was wounded of the archers.
4 Then said Saul to his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. So Saul took a sword, and fell upon it.
5 And when his armourbearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise on the sword, and died.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together.
7 And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, then they forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
8 And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen in mount Gilboa.
9 And when they had stripped him, they took his head, and his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry tidings unto their idols, and to the people.
10 And they put his armour in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon.
11 And when all Jabeshgilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 They arose, all the valiant men, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
13 So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the Lord, even against the word of the Lord, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to enquire of it;
14 And enquired not of the Lord: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom unto David the son of Jesse.
1 Chronicles 10
English Standard Version
The Death of Saul and His Sons
10 (A)Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled before the Philistines and fell slain on Mount Gilboa. 2 And the Philistines overtook Saul and his sons, and the Philistines struck down Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul. 3 The battle pressed hard against Saul, and the archers found him, and he was wounded by the archers. 4 Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and mistreat me.” But his armor-bearer would not, for he feared greatly. Therefore Saul took his own sword and fell upon it. 5 And when his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died. 6 Thus Saul died; he and his three sons and all his house died together. 7 And when all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that the army[a] had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and fled, and the Philistines came and lived in them.
8 The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa. 9 And they stripped him and took his head and his armor, and sent messengers throughout the land of the Philistines to carry the good news to their idols and to the people. 10 And they put his armor in the temple of their gods and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon. 11 But when all Jabesh-gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul, 12 all the valiant men arose and took away the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh. And they buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh and fasted seven days.
13 So Saul died (B)for his breach of faith. He broke faith with the Lord in that he did not keep the command of the Lord, and also (C)consulted a medium, seeking guidance. 14 He (D)did not seek guidance from the Lord. Therefore the Lord put him to death and (E)turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.
