1Ang mga Filisteo nga ay lumaban sa Israel: at ang mga lalake sa Israel ay tumakas sa harap ng mga Filisteo, at nangabuwal na patay sa bundok ng Gilboa. 2At hinabol ng panunod ng mga Filisteo si Saul at ang kaniyang mga anak; at pinatay ng mga Filisteo si Jonathan, at si Abinadab, at si Melchisua, na mga anak ni Saul. 3At ang pagbabaka ay lumubha laban kay Saul, at inabutan siya ng mga mamamana; at siya'y totoong nahirapan dahil sa mga mamamana. 4Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ni Saul sa kaniyang tagadala ng sandata, Bunutin mo ang iyong tabak at palagpasan mo ako niyaon; baka dumating ang mga hindi tuling ito at ako'y palagpasan, at ako'y kanilang pahirapan. Nguni't ayaw ang kaniyang tagadala ng sandata; sapagka't siya'y totoong natakot. Kaya't kinuha ni Saul ang kaniyang tabak, at nagpakabuwal sa kaniyang tabak. 5At nang makita ng kaniyang tagadala ng sandata na si Saul ay patay, siya naman ay nagpakabuwal sa kaniyang tabak, at nagpakamatay na kasama niya. 6Gayon namatay si Saul, at ang kaniyang tatlong anak, at ang kaniyang tagadala ng sandata, at ang lahat niyang mga lalake nang araw na yaon na magkakasama. 7At nang makita ng mga lalake sa Israel na nasa kabilang dako ng libis, at ng mga nasa dako roon ng Jordan, na ang mga lalake sa Israel ay tumakas, at si Saul at ang kaniyang mga anak ay namatay, kanilang iniwan ang mga bayan, at nagsitakas; at naparoon ang mga Filisteo, at tumahan sa mga yaon. 8At nangyari nang kinabukasan nang ang mga Filisteo ay dumating upang hubaran ang mga patay, ay kanilang nasumpungan si Saul at ang kaniyang tatlong anak na nabuwal sa bundok ng Gilboa. 9At kanilang pinugot ang kaniyang ulo, at hinubad ang kaniyang mga sakbat, at ipinadala sa lupain ng mga Filisteo sa palibot upang ibalita sa mga bahay ng kanilang mga diosdiosan at sa bayan. 10At kanilang inilagay ang kaniyang sakbat, sa bahay ni Astaroth: at kanilang ibinitin ang bangkay niya sa kuta ng Beth-san. 11At nang mabalitaan ng mga tumatahan sa Jabes-galaad ang tungkol sa ginawa ng mga Filisteo kay Saul, 12Lahat ng matapang na lalake ay bumangon at nagsilakad sa buong gabi at kinuha ang bangkay ni Saul at ang mga bangkay ng kaniyang mga anak sa kuta ng Beth-san; at sila'y naparoon sa Jabes, at kanilang pinagsunog doon. 13At kanilang kinuha ang kanilang mga buto at ibinaon sa ilalim ng isang puno ng tamarisko sa Jabes, at nagayuno silang pitong araw.
1Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on Mount Gilboa. 2The Philistines followed hard on Saul and on his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul. 3The battle went hard against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was greatly distressed by reason of the archers. 4Then Saul said to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me!” But his armor bearer would not; for he was terrified. Therefore Saul took his sword, and fell on it. 5When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword, and died with him. 6So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armor bearer, and all his men, that same day together. 7When the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those who were beyond the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned the cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them. 8On the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa. 9They cut off his head, and stripped off his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines all around, to carry the news to the house of their idols, and to the people. 10They put his armor in the house of the Ashtaroth; and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth Shan. 11When the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard concerning him that which the Philistines had done to Saul, 12all the valiant men arose, and went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth Shan; and they came to Jabesh, and burnt them there. 13They took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
1De Filistijnen dan steden tegen Israel; en de mannen Israels vloden voor het aangezicht der Filistijnen, en vielen verslagen op het gebergte Gilboa. 2En de Filistijnen hielden dicht op Saul en zijn zonen; en de Filistijnen sloegen Jonathan, en Abinadab, en Malchisua, de zonen van Saul. 3En de strijd werd zwaar tegen Saul; en de mannen, die met den boog schieten, troffen hem aan, en hij vreesde zeer voor de schutters. 4Toen zeide Saul tot zijn wapendrager: Trek uw zwaard uit, en doorsteek mij daarmede, dat misschien deze onbesnedenen niet komen, en mij doorsteken, en met mij den spot drijven. Maar zijn wapendrager wilde niet, want hij vreesde zeer. Toen nam Saul het zwaard, en viel daarin. 5Toen zijn wapendrager zag, dat Saul dood was, zo viel hij ook in zijn zwaard en stierf met hem. 6Alzo stierf Saul, en zijn drie zonen, en zijn wapendrager, ook al zijn mannen, te dienzelven dage te gelijk. 7Als de mannen van Israel, die aan deze zijde van het dal waren, en die aan deze zijde der Jordaan waren, zagen, dat de mannen van Israel gevloden waren, en dat Saul en zijn zonen dood waren, zo verlieten zij de steden, en zij vloden. Toen kwamen de Filistijnen en woonden daarin. 8Het geschiedde nu des anderen daags, als de Filistijnen kwamen, om de verslagenen te plunderen, zo vonden zij Saul en zijn drie zonen, liggende op het gebergte Gilboa. 9En zij hieuwen zijn hoofd af, en zij togen zijn wapenen uit, en zij zonden ze in der Filistijnen land rondom, om te boodschappen in het huis hunner afgoden, en onder het volk. 10En zij legden zijn wapenen in het huis van Astharoth; en zijn lichaam hechtten zij aan den muur te Beth-San. 11Als de inwoners van Jabes in Gilead daarvan hoorden, wat de Filistijnen Saul gedaan hadden; 12Zo maakten zich op alle strijdbare mannen, en gingen den gehelen nacht, en zij namen het lichaam van Saul, en de lichamen zijner zonen, van den muur te Beth-San; en zij kwamen te Jabes, en brandden ze aldaar. 13En zij namen hun beenderen, en begroeven ze onder het geboomte te Jabes; en zij vastten zeven dagen.
