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 on Mount Gilboa.
1ΚΑΙ ἀλλόφυλοι ἐπολέμησαν πρὸς τὸν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἔφυγον ἀπὸ προσώπου ἀλλοφύλων, καὶ ἔπεσον τραυματίαι ἐν ὄρει Γελβουέ.
2The Philistines followed hard after Saul and after his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, 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.
3The battle went hard against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was distressed 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 Saul said to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me.” But his armor bearer would not, for he was terrified. Therefore Saul took his sword and fell on 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.
5When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on 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 with 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.
7When all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and lived 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.
8On the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his sons fallen on 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.
9They stripped him and took his head and his armor, then sent into the land of the Philistines all around to carry the news to 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·
10They put his armor 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.
11When 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 oak 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 trespass which he committed against the LORD, because of the LORD’s word, which he didn’t keep, and also because he asked counsel of one who had a familiar spirit, to inquire,
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 didn’t inquire of the LORD. Therefore he killed him, and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.
14καὶ οὐκ ἐζήτησε Κύριον, καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐπέστρεψε τὴν βασιλείαν τῷ Δαυὶδ υἱῷ Ἰεσσαί.
