1ΚΑΙ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ πρὸς Σαούλ· ἐμὲ ἀπέστειλε Κύριος χρῖσαί σε εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ νῦν ἄκουε τῆς φωνῆς Κυρίου·
1Samuel said to Saul, “The LORD sent me to anoint you to be king over his people, over Israel. Now therefore listen to the voice of the LORD’s words.
2τάδε εἶπε Κύριος Σαβαώθ· νῦν ἐκδικήσω ἃ ἐποίησεν Ἀμαλὴκ τῷ Ἰσραήλ, ὡς ἀπήντησεν αὐτῷ ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ ἀναβαίνοντος αὐτοῦ ἐξ Αἰγύπτου·
2The LORD of Armies says, ‘I remember what Amalek did to Israel, how he set himself against him on the way when he came up out of Egypt.
3καὶ νῦν πορεύου καὶ πατάξεις τὸν Ἀμαλὴκ καὶ Ἱερὶμ καὶ πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ περιποιήσῃ ἐξ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξολοθρεύσεις αὐτὸν καὶ ἀναθεματιεῖς αὐτὸν καὶ πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ φείσῃ ἀπ᾿ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀποκτενεῖς ἀπὸ ἀνδρὸς καὶ ἕως γυναικὸς καὶ ἀπὸ νηπίου ἕως θηλάζοντος καὶ ἀπὸ μόσχου ἕως προβάτου καὶ ἀπὸ καμήλου ἕως ὄνου.
3Now go and strike Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and don’t spare them; but kill both man and woman, infant and nursing baby, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.’”
4καὶ παρήγγειλε Σαοὺλ τῷ λαῷ καὶ ἐπισκέπτεται αὐτοὺς ἐν Γαλγάλοις τετρακοσίας χιλιάδας ταγμάτων καὶ τὸν Ἰούδαν τριάκοντα χιλιάδας ταγμάτων.
4Saul summoned the people, and counted them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen and ten thousand men of Judah.
5καὶ ἦλθε Σαοὺλ ἕως τῶν πόλεων Ἀμαλὴκ καὶ ἐνήδρευσεν ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ.
5Saul came to the city of Amalek, and set an ambush in the valley.
6καὶ εἶπε Σαοὺλ πρὸς τὸν Κιναῖον· ἄπελθε καὶ ἔκκλινον ἐκ μέσου τοῦ Ἀμαληκίτου, μὴ προσθῶ σε μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ, καὶ σὺ ἐποίησας ἔλεος μετὰ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῷ ἀναβαίνειν αὐτοὺς ἐξ Αἰγύπτου· καὶ ἐξέκλινεν ὁ Κιναῖος ἐκ μέσου Ἀμαλήκ.
6Saul said to the Kenites, “Go, depart, go down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them; for you showed kindness to all the children of Israel when they came up out of Egypt.” So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
7καὶ ἐπάταξε Σαοὺλ τὸν Ἀμαλὴκ ἀπὸ Εὐιλὰτ ἕως Σοὺρ ἐπὶ προσώπου Αἰγύπτου.
7Saul struck the Amalekites, from Havilah as you go to Shur, which is before Egypt.
8καὶ συνέλαβε τὸν Ἀγὰγ βασιλέα Ἀμαλὴκ ζῶντα καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν καὶ Ἱερὶμ ἀπέκτεινεν ἐν στόματι ρομφαίας.
8He took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.
9καὶ περιεποιήσατο Σαοὺλ καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς τὸν Ἀγὰγ ζῶντα καὶ τὰ ἀγαθὰ τῶν ποιμνίων καὶ τῶν βουκολίων καὶ τῶν ἐδεσμάτων καὶ τῶν ἀμπελώνων καὶ πάντων τῶν ἀγαθῶν καὶ οὐκ ἐβούλοντο ἐξολοθρεῦσαι αὐτά· καὶ πᾶν ἔργον ἠτιμωμένον καὶ ἐξουδενωμένον ἐξωλόθρευσαν.
9But Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the sheep, of the cattle, of the fat calves, of the lambs, and all that was good, and were not willing to utterly destroy them; but everything that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.
10Καὶ ἐγενήθη ρῆμα Κυρίου πρὸς Σαμουὴλ λέγων·
10Then the LORD’s word came to Samuel, saying,
11παρακέκλημαι ὅτι ἐβασίλευσα τὸν Σαοὺλ εἰς βασιλέα, ὅτι ἀπέστρεψεν ἀπὸ ὄπισθέν μου καὶ τοὺς λόγους μου οὐκ ἐτήρησε. καὶ ἠθύμησε Σαμουὴλ καὶ ἐβόησε πρὸς Κύριον ὅλην τὴν νύκτα.
11“It grieves me that I have set up Saul to be king, for he has turned back from following me, and has not performed my commandments.” Samuel was angry; and he cried to the LORD all night.
12καὶ ὤρθρισε Σαμουὴλ καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς ἀπάντησιν Ἰσραὴλ τὸ πρωΐ. καὶ ἀπηγγέλη τῷ Σαοὺλ λέγοντες· ἥκει Σαμουὴλ εἰς Κάρμηλον καὶ ἀνέστακεν αὐτῷ χεῖρα καὶ ἐπέστρεψε τὸ ἅρμα. καὶ κατέβη εἰς Γάλγαλα πρὸς Σαούλ, καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς ἀνέφερεν ὁλοκαύτωσιν τῷ Κυρίῳ τὰ πρῶτα τῶν σκύλων, ὧν ἤνεγκεν ἐξ Ἀμαλήκ.
12Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning; and Samuel was told, saying, “Saul came to Carmel, and behold, he set up a monument for himself, turned, passed on, and went down to Gilgal.”
13καὶ παρεγένετο Σαμουὴλ πρὸς Σαούλ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Σαούλ· εὐλογητὸς σὺ τῷ Κυρίῳ· ἔστησα πάντα, ὅσα ἐλάλησε Κύριος.
13Samuel came to Saul; and Saul said to him, “You are blessed by the LORD! I have performed the commandment of the LORD.”
14καὶ εἶπε Σαμουήλ· καὶ τίς ἡ φωνὴ τοῦ ποιμνίου τούτου ἐν τοῖς ὠσί μου καὶ φωνὴ τῶν βοῶν, ὧν ἐγὼ ἀκούω;
14Samuel said, “Then what does this bleating of the sheep in my ears and the lowing of the cattle which I hear mean?”
15καὶ εἶπε Σαούλ· ἐξ Ἀμαλὴκ ἤνεγκα αὐτά, ἃ περιεποιήσατο ὁ λαὸς τὰ κράτιστα τοῦ ποιμνίου καὶ τῶν βοῶν, ὅπως τυθῇ Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ σου, καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ ἐξωλόθρευσα.
15Saul said, “They have brought them from the Amalekites; for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the cattle, to sacrifice to the LORD your God. We have utterly destroyed the rest.”
16καὶ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ πρὸς Σαούλ· ἄνες καὶ ἀπαγγελῶ σοι ἃ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρός με τὴν νύκτα· καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· λάλησον.
16Then Samuel said to Saul, “Stay, and I will tell you what the LORD said to me last night.” He said to him, “Say on.”
17καὶ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ πρὸς Σαούλ· οὐχὶ μικρὸς εἶ σὺ ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ ἡγούμενος σκήπτρου φυλῆς Ἰσραήλ; καὶ ἔχρισέ σε Κύριος εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ.
17Samuel said, “Though you were little in your own sight, weren’t you made the head of the tribes of Israel? The LORD anointed you king over Israel;
18καὶ ἀπέστειλέ σε Κύριος ἐν ὁδῷ καὶ εἶπέ σοι· πορεύθητι καὶ ἐξολόθρευσον τοὺς ἁμαρτάνοντας εἰς ἐμέ, τὸν Ἀμαλήκ, καὶ πολεμήσεις αὐτοὺς ἕως συντελέσῃς αὐτούς.
18and the LORD sent you on a journey, and said, ‘Go, and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they are consumed.’
19καὶ ἱνατί οὐκ ἤκουσας φωνῆς Κυρίου, ἀλλ᾿ ὥρμησας τοῦ θέσθαι ἐπὶ τὰ σκῦλα καὶ ἐποίησας τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου;
19Why then didn’t you obey the LORD’s voice, but took the plunder, and did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight?”
20καὶ εἶπε Σαοὺλ πρὸς Σαμουήλ· διὰ τὸ ἀκοῦσαί με τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ λαοῦ· καὶ ἐπορεύθην τῇ ὁδῷ, ᾗ ἀπέστειλέ με Κύριος, καὶ ἤγαγον τὸν Ἀγὰγ βασιλέα Ἀμαλὴκ καὶ τὸν Ἀμαλὴκ ἐξωλόθρευσα·
20Saul said to Samuel, “But I have obeyed the LORD’s voice, and have gone the way which the LORD sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.
21καὶ ἔλαβεν ὁ λαὸς τῶν σκύλων ποίμνια καὶ βουκόλια, τὰ πρῶτα τοῦ ἐξολοθρεύματος, θῦσαι ἐνώπιον Κυρίου Θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐν Γαλγάλοις.
21But the people took of the plunder, sheep and cattle, the best of the devoted things, to sacrifice to the LORD your God in Gilgal.”
22καὶ εἶπε Σαμουήλ· εἰ θελητὸν τῷ Κυρίῳ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ θυσίας ὡς τὸ ἀκοῦσαι φωνῆς Κυρίου; ἰδοὺ ἀκοὴ ὑπὲρ θυσίαν ἀγαθὴν καὶ ἡ ἐπακρόασις ὑπὲρ στέαρ κριῶν·
22Samuel said, “Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the LORD’s voice? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to listen than the fat of rams.
23ὅτι ἁμαρτία οἰώνισμά ἐστιν, ὀδύνην καὶ πόνους θεραφὶν ἐπάγουσιν· ὅτι ἐξουδένωσας τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου, καὶ ἐξουδενώσει σε Κύριος μὴ εἶναι βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ.
23For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as idolatry and teraphim. Because you have rejected the LORD’s word, he has also rejected you from being king.”
24καὶ εἶπε Σαοὺλ πρὸς Σαμουήλ· ἡμάρτηκα ὅτι παρέβην τὸν λόγον Κυρίου καὶ τὸ ρῆμά σου, ὅτι ἐφοβήθην τὸν λαὸν καὶ ἤκουσα τῆς φωνῆς αὐτῶν·
24Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned; for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD and your words, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice.
25καὶ νῦν ἆρον δὴ τὸ ἁμάρτημά μου καὶ ἀνάστρεψον μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ, καὶ προσκυνήσω Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ σου.
25Now therefore, please pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD.”
26καὶ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ πρὸς Σαούλ· οὐκ ἀναστρέφω μετὰ σοῦ, ὅτι ἐξουδένωσας τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου, καί ἐξουδενώσει σε Κύριος τοῦ μὴ εἶναι βασιλέα ἐπὶ τὸν Ἰσραήλ.
26Samuel said to Saul, “I will not return with you; for you have rejected the LORD’s word, and the LORD has rejected you from being king over Israel.”
27καὶ ἐπέστρεψε Σαμουὴλ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ τοῦ ἀπελθεῖν. καὶ ἐκράτησε Σαοὺλ τοῦ πτερυγίου τῆς διπλοΐδος αὐτοῦ καὶ διέρρηξεν αὐτό·
27As Samuel turned around to go away, Saul grabbed the skirt of his robe, and it tore.
28καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν Σαμουήλ· διέρρηξε Κύριος τὴν βασιλείαν σου ἀπὸ Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ χειρός σου σήμερον καὶ δώσει αὐτὴν τῷ πλησίον σου τῷ ἀγαθῷ ὑπὲρ σέ·
28Samuel said to him, “The LORD has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today, and has given it to a neighbor of yours who is better than you.
29καὶ διαιρεθήσεται Ἰσραὴλ εἰς δύο, καὶ οὐκ ἀποστρέψει οὐδὲ μετανοήσει, ὅτι οὐχ ὡς ἄνθρωπός ἐστι τοῦ μετανοῆσαι αὐτός.
29Also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent; for he is not a man, that he should repent.”
30καὶ εἶπε Σαούλ· ἡμάρτηκα, ἀλλὰ δόξασόν με δὴ ἐνώπιον πρεσβυτέρων Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἐνώπιον λαοῦ μου καὶ ἀνάστρεψον μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ, καὶ προσκυνήσω Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ σου.
30Then he said, “I have sinned; yet please honor me now before the elders of my people and before Israel, and come back with me, that I may worship the LORD your God.”
31καὶ ἀνέστρεψε Σαμουὴλ ὀπίσω Σαοὺλ καὶ προσεκύνησε τῷ Κυρίῳ.
31So Samuel went back with Saul; and Saul worshiped the LORD.
32καὶ εἶπε Σαμουήλ· προσαγάγετέ μοι τὸν Ἀγὰγ βασιλέα Ἀμαλήκ. καὶ προσῆλθε πρὸς αὐτὸν Ἀγὰγ τρέμων, καὶ εἶπεν Ἀγάγ· εἰ οὕτω πικρὸς ὁ θάνατος;
32Then Samuel said, “Bring Agag the king of the Amalekites here to me!” Agag came to him cheerfully. Agag said, “Surely the bitterness of death is past.”
33καὶ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ πρὸς Ἀγάγ· καθότι ἠτέκνωσε γυναῖκας ἡ ρομφαία σου, οὕτως ἀτεκνωθήσεται ἐκ γυναικῶν ἡ μήτηρ σου, καὶ ἔσφαξε Σαμουὴλ τὸν Ἀγὰγ ἐνώπιον Κυρίου ἐν Γαλγάλ.
33Samuel said, “As your sword has made women childless, so your mother will be childless among women!” Then Samuel cut Agag in pieces before the LORD in Gilgal.
34καὶ ἀπῆλθε Σαμουὴλ εἰς Ἀρμαθαίμ, καὶ Σαοὺλ ἀνέβη εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ εἰς Γαβαά.
34Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house to Gibeah of Saul.
35καὶ οὐ προσέθετο ἔτι Σαμουὴλ ἰδεῖν τὸν Σαοὺλ ἕως ἠμέρας θανάτου αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἐπένθει Σαμουὴλ ἐπὶ Σαούλ· καὶ Κύριος μετεμελήθη ὅτι ἐβασίλευσε τὸν Σαοὺλ ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ.
35Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death, but Samuel mourned for Saul. The LORD grieved that he had made Saul king over Israel.
