1ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο λιμὸς ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις Δαυὶδ τρία ἔτη, ἐνιαυτὸς ὁ ἐχόμενος ἐνιαυτοῦ, καὶ ἐζήτησε Δαυὶδ τὸ πρόσωπον Κυρίου. καὶ εἶπε Κύριος· ἐπὶ Σαοὺλ καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ ἀδικία ἐν θανάτῳ αἱμάτων αὐτοῦ, περὶ οὗ ἐθανάτωσε τοὺς Γαβαωνίτας.
1There was a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year; and David sought the face of the LORD. The LORD said, “It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put the Gibeonites to death.”
2καὶ ἐκάλεσεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυὶδ τοὺς Γαβαωνίτας καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτούς· καὶ οἱ Γαβαωνῖται οὐχ υἱοὶ Ἰσραήλ εἰσιν, ὅτι ἀλλ' ἢ ἐκ τοῦ λείμματος τοῦ Ἀμορραίου, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ὤμοσαν αὐτοῖς· καὶ ἐζήτησε Σαοὺλ πατάξαι αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ ζηλῶσαι αὐτὸν τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ καὶ Ἰούδα.
2The king called the Gibeonites and said to them (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites, and the children of Israel had sworn to them; and Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah);
3καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς τοὺς Γαβαωνίτας· τί ποιήσω ἡμῖν καὶ ἐν τίνι ἐξιλάσομαι καὶ εὐλογήσετε τὴν κληρονομίαν Κυρίου;
3and David said to the Gibeonites, “What should I do for you? And with what should I make atonement, that you may bless the LORD’s inheritance?”
4καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ οἱ Γαβαωνῖται· οὐκ ἔστιν ἡμῖν ἀργύριον ἢ χρυσίον μετὰ Σαοὺλ καὶ μετὰ τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἡμῖν ἀνὴρ θανατῶσαι ἐν Ἰσραήλ.
4The Gibeonites said to him, “It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul or his house; neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel.” He said, “I will do for you whatever you say.”
5καὶ εἶπε· τί ὑμεῖς λέγετε καὶ ποιήσω ὑμῖν; καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα· ὁ ἀνήρ, ὃς συνετέλεσεν ἐφ' ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐδίωξεν ἡμᾶς, ὃς παρελογίσατο ἐξολοθρεῦσαι ἡμᾶς· ἀφανίσωμεν αὐτόν, τοῦ μή ἑστάναι αὐτὸν ἐν παντὶ ὁρίῳ Ἰσραήλ·
5They said to the king, “The man who consumed us and who plotted against us, that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
6δότω ἡμῖν ἑπτὰ ἄνδρας ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξηλιάσωμεν αὐτοὺς τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐν τῷ Γαβαὼν Σαοὺλ ἐκλεκτοὺς Κυρίου. καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς· ἐγὼ δώσω.
6let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to the LORD in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of the LORD.” The king said, “I will give them.”
7καὶ ἐφείσατο ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐπὶ Μεμφιβοσθὲ υἱὸν Ἰωνάθαν υἱοῦ Σαοὺλ διὰ τὸν ὅρκον Κυρίου τὸν ἀνὰ μέσον αὐτῶν καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Δαυὶδ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Ἰωνάθαν υἱοῦ Σαούλ·
7But the king spared Mephibosheth the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the LORD’s oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8καὶ ἔλαβεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τοὺς δύο υἱοὺς Ρεσφὰ θυγατρὸς Ἁϊᾶ, οὓς ἔτεκε τῷ Σαούλ, τὸν Ἑρμωνὶ καὶ τὸν Μεμφιβοσθέ, καὶ τοὺς πέντε υἱοὺς τῆς Μιχὸλ θυγατρὸς Σαούλ, οὓς ἔτεκε τῷ Ἐσδριὴλ υἱῷ Βερζελλὶ τῷ Μουλαθί,
8But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Merab the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοὺς ἐν χειρὶ τῶν Γαβαωνιτῶν, καὶ ἐξηλίασαν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ ἔπεσαν οἱ ἑπτὰ αὐτοὶ ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό· καὶ αὐτοὶ δὲ ἐθανατώθησαν ἐν ἡμέραις θερισμοῦ ἐν πρώτοις, ἐν ἀρχῇ θερισμοῦ κριθῶν.
9He delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites; and they hanged them on the mountain before the LORD, and all seven of them fell together. They were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
10καὶ ἔλαβε Ρεσφὰ θυγάτηρ Ἁϊᾶ τὸν σάκκον καὶ ἔπηξεν αὐτῇ πρὸς τὴν πέτραν ἐν ἀρχῇ θερισμοῦ κριθῶν, ἕως ἔσταξεν ἐπ' αὐτοὺς ὕδωρ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκε τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καταπαῦσαι ἐπ' αὐτοὺς ἡμέρας καὶ τὰ θηρία τοῦ ἀγροῦ νυκτός.
10Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water poured on them from the sky. She allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day, nor the animals of the field by night.
11καὶ ἀπηγγέλη τῷ Δαυὶδ ὅσα ἐποίησε Ρεσφὰ θυγάτηρ Ἁϊᾶ παλλακὴ Σαούλ· καὶ ἐξελύθησαν, καὶ κατέλαβεν αὐτοὺς Δὰν υἱὸς Ἰωὰ ἐκ τῶν ἀπογόνων τῶν γιγάντων,
11David was told what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
12καὶ ἐπορεύθη Δαυὶδ καὶ ἔλαβε τὰ ὀστᾶ Σαοὺλ καὶ τὰ ὀστᾶ Ἰωνάθαν τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ παρὰ τῶν ἀνδρῶν υἱῶν Ἰαβὶς Γαλαάδ, οἳ ἔκλεψαν αὐτοὺς ἐκ τῆς πλατείας Βαιθσάν, ὅτι ἔστησαν αὐτοὺς ἐκεῖ οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, ᾗ ἐπάταξαν οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι τὸν Σαοὺλ ἐν Γελβουέ,
12So David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh Gilead, who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hanged them in the day that the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa;
13καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν ἐκεῖθεν τὰ ὀστᾶ Σαοὺλ καὶ τὰ ὀστᾶ Ἰωνάθαν τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ συνήγαγε τὰ ὀστᾶ τῶν ἐξηλιασμένων.
13and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son. They also gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
14καὶ ἔθαψαν τὰ ὀστᾶ Σαοὺλ καὶ τὰ ὀστᾶ Ἰωνάθαν τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ τά ὀστᾶ τῶν ἡλιασθέντων ἐν γῇ Βενιαμὶν ἐν τῇ πλευρᾷ ἐν τῷ τάφῳ Κὶς τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐποίησαν πάντα, ὅσα ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεύς. καὶ ἐπήκουσεν ὁ Θεὸς τῇ γῇ μετὰ ταῦτα.
14They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father; and they performed all that the king commanded. After that, God answered prayer for the land.
15Καὶ ἐγενήθη ἔτι πόλεμος τοῖς ἀλλοφύλοις μετὰ Ἰσραήλ. καὶ κατέβη Δαυὶδ καὶ οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ μετ' αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπολέμησαν μετὰ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων, καὶ ἐξελύθη Δαυίδ.
15The Philistines had war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. David grew faint;
16καὶ Ἰεσβί, ὃς ἦν ἐν τοῖς ἐκγόνοις τοῦ Ραφὰ καὶ ὁ σταθμὸς τοῦ δόρατος αὐτοῦ τριακοσίων σίκλων ὁλκὴ χαλκοῦ καὶ αὐτὸς περιεζωσμένος κορύνην, καὶ διενοεῖτο τοῦ πατάξαι τὸν Δαυίδ.
16and Ishbibenob, who was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, he being armed with a new sword, thought he would kill David.
17καὶ ἐβοήθησεν αὐτῷ Ἀβεσσὰ υἱὸς Σαρουΐας καὶ ἐπάταξε τὸν ἀλλόφυλον καὶ ἐθανάτωσεν αὐτόν. τότε ὤμοσαν οἱ ἄνδρες Δαυὶδ λέγοντες· οὐκ ἐξελεύσῃ ἔτι μεθ' ἡμῶν εἰς πόλεμον καὶ οὐ μὴ σβέσῃς τὸν λύχνον Ἰσραήλ.
17But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, “Don’t go out with us to battle any more, so that you don’t quench the lamp of Israel.”
18καὶ ἐγενήθη μετὰ ταῦτα ἔτι πόλεμος ἐν Γὲθ μετὰ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων. τότε ἐπάταξε Σεβοχὰ ὁ Ἀστατωθὶ τὸν Σὲφ ἐν τοῖς ἐκγόνοις τοῦ Ραφά.
18After this, there was again war with the Philistines at Gob. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was of the sons of the giant.
19καὶ ἐγένετο ὁ πόλεμος ἐν Γὸβ μετὰ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων. καὶ ἐπάταξεν Ἐλεανὰν υἱὸς Ἀριωργὶμ ὁ Βηθλεεμίτης τὸν Γολιὰθ τὸν Γεθθαῖον, καὶ τὸ ξύλον τοῦ δόρατος αὐτοῦ ὡς ἀντίον ὑφαινόντων.
19There was again war with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite’s brother, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
20καὶ ἐγένετο ἔτι πόλεμος ἐν Γέθ. καὶ ἦν ἀνὴρ μαδών, καὶ οἱ δάκτυλοι τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ δάκτυλοι τῶν ποδῶν αὐτοῦ ἓξ καὶ ἕξ, εἰκοσιτέσσαρες ἀριθμῷ, καί γε αὐτὸς ἐτέχθη τῷ Ραφά.
20There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on every hand and six toes on every foot, twenty-four in number, and he also was born to the giant.
21καὶ ὠνείδισε τὸν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν Ἰωνάθαν υἱὸς Σεμεΐ ἀδελφοῦ Δαυίδ.
21When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David’s brother, killed him.
22οἱ τέσσαρες οὗτοι ἐτέχθησαν ἀπόγονοι τῶν γιγάντων ἐν Γὲθ τῷ Ραφὰ οἶκος, καὶ ἔπεσαν ἐν χειρὶ Δαυίδ, καὶ ἐν χειρὶ τῶν δούλων αὐτοῦ.
22These four were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
