1 Chronicles 10
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
1ΚΑΙ ἀλλόφυλοι ἐπολέμησαν πρὸς τὸν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἔφυγον ἀπὸ προσώπου ἀλλοφύλων, καὶ ἔπεσον τραυματίαι ἐν ὄρει Γελβουέ.
2And the Philistines followed hard after Saul and after his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul.
2καὶ κατεδίωξαν οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι ὀπίσω Σαοὺλ καὶ ὀπίσω τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπάταξαν ἀλλόφυλοι τὸν Ἰωνάθαν καὶ τὸν Ἀμιναδὰβ καὶ τὸν Μελχισουὲ υἱοὺς Σαούλ.
3And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was in anguish by reason of the archers.
3καὶ ἐβαρύνθη ὁ πόλεμος ἐπὶ Σαούλ, καὶ εὗρον αὐτὸν οἱ τοξόται ἐν τόξοις καὶ πόνοις, καὶ ἐπόνεσεν ἀπὸ τῶν τόξων.
4Then said Saul unto his armour-bearer: 'Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and make a mock of me.' But his armour-bearer would not; for he was sore afraid. Therefore Saul took his sword, and fell upon it.
4καὶ εἶπε Σαοὺλ τῷ αἴροντι τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ· σπάσαι τὴν ρομφαίαν σου καὶ ἐκκέντησόν με ἐν αὐτῇ, μὴ ἔλθωσιν οἱ ἀπερίτμητοι οὗτοι καὶ ἐμπαίξωσί μοι. καὶ οὐκ ἐβούλετο ὁ αἴρων τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἐφοβεῖτο σφόδρα· καὶ ἔλαβε Σαοὺλ τὴν ρομφαίαν καὶ ἐπέπεσεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτήν.
5And when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell upon his sword, and died.
5καὶ εἶδεν ὁ αἴρων τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἀπέθανε Σαούλ, καὶ ἔπεσε καί γε αὐτὸς ἐπὶ τὴν ρομφαίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπέθανε.
6So Saul died, and his three sons; and all his house died together.
6καὶ ἀπέθανε Σαοὺλ καὶ τρεῖς υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἶκος αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ ἀπέθανε.
7And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook their cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
7καὶ εἶδε πᾶς ἀνὴρ Ἰσραὴλ ὁ ἐν τῷ αὐλῶνι ὅτι ἔφυγεν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ὅτι ἀπέθανε Σαοὺλ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ κατέλιπον τὰς πόλεις αὐτῶν καὶ ἔφυγον· καὶ ἦλθον οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι καὶ κατῴκησαν ἐν αὐταῖς.
8And 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.
8καὶ ἐγένετο τῇ ἑπομένῃ καὶ ἦλθον ἀλλόφυλοι τοῦ σκυλεύειν τοὺς τραυματίας καὶ εὗρον τὸν Σαοὺλ καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ πεπτωκότας ἐν τῷ ὄρει Γελβουέ.
9And they stripped him, and took his head, and his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry the tidings unto their idols, and to the people.
9καὶ ἐξέδυσαν αὐτὸν καὶ ἔλαβον τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπέστειλαν εἰς γῆν ἀλλοφύλων κύκλῳ τοῦ εὐαγγελίσασθαι τοῖς εἰδώλοις αὐτῶν καὶ τῷ λαῷ·
10And they put his armour in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the house of Dagon.
10καὶ ἔθηκαν τὰ σκεύη αὐτῶν ἐν οἴκῳ θεοῦ αὐτῶν καὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ ἔθηκαν ἐν οἴκῳ Δαγών.
11And when all Jabesh-gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
11καὶ ἤκουσαν πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες Γαλαὰδ ἅπαντα, ἃ ἐποίησαν οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι τῷ Σαοὺλ καὶ υἱῷ Ἰσραήλ.
12all the valiant men arose, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the terebinth in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
12καὶ ἠγέρθησαν ἐκ Γαλαὰδ πᾶς ἀνὴρ δυνατὸς καὶ ἔλαβον τὸ σῶμα Σαοὺλ καὶ τὸ σῶμα τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἤνεγκαν αὐτὰ εἰς Ἰαβὶς καὶ ἔθαψαν τὰ ὀστᾶ αὐτῶν ὑπὸ τὴν δρῦν ἐν Ἰαβὶς καὶ ἐνήστευσαν ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας.
13So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the LORD, because of the word of the LORD, which he kept not; and also for that he asked counsel of a ghost, to inquire thereby,
13καὶ ἀπέθανε Σαοὺλ ἐν ταῖς ἀνομίαις αὐτοῦ, αἷς ἠνόμησε τῷ Θεῷ κατὰ τὸν λόγον Κυρίου, διότι οὐκ ἐφύλαξεν· ὅτι ἐπηρώτησε Σαοὺλ ἐν τῶ ἐγγαστριμύθῳ τοῦ ζητῆσαι, καὶ ἀπεκρίνατο αὐτῷ Σαμουὴλ ὁ προφήτης·
14and inquired not of the LORD; therefore He slew him, and turned the kingdom unto David the son of Jesse.
14καὶ οὐκ ἐζήτησε Κύριον, καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐπέστρεψε τὴν βασιλείαν τῷ Δαυὶδ υἱῷ Ἰεσσαί.
