GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Κατ' εκεινας δε τας ημερας συνηθροισαν οι Φιλισταιοι τα στρατευματα αυτων προς εκστρατειαν, δια να πολεμησωσι μετα του Ισραηλ. Και ειπεν ο Αγχους προς τον Δαβιδ, Εξευρε μετα βεβαιοτητος οτι θελεις εξελθει μετ' εμου εις τον πολεμον, συ και οι ανδρες σου.	1 Now it happened that, in those days, the Philistines gathered together their troops, so that they might be prepared for war against Israel. And Achish said to David, “I know now, certainly, that you will go out with me to war, you and your men.”
2 Και ειπεν ο Δαβιδ προς τον Αγχους, Θελεις βεβαιως γνωρισει τι θελει καμει ο δουλος σου. Και ειπεν ο Αγχους προς τον Δαβιδ, Δια τουτο θελω σε καμει αρχισωματοφυλακα μου διαπαντος.	2 And David said to Achish, “You know now what your servant will do.” And Achish said to David, “And so, I will appoint you to guard my head for all days.”
3 Απεθανε δε ο Σαμουηλ, και πας ο Ισραηλ εθρηνησεν αυτον και ενεταφιασεν αυτον εν Ραμα τη πολει αυτου. Και εξεβαλεν ο Σαουλ εκ του τοπου τους εχοντας πνευμα μαντειας και τους μαγους.	3 Now Samuel was dead, and all of Israel mourned for him, and they buried him in Ramah, his city. And Saul took away the magi and soothsayers from the land.
4 Συνηθροισθησαν λοιπον οι Φιλισταιοι και ηλθον και εστρατοπεδευσαν εν Σουνημ? και συνηθροισεν ο Σαουλ παντα τον Ισραηλ, και εστρατοπεδευσαν εν Γελβουε.	4 And the Philistines gathered together, and they arrived and made camp at Shunem. Then Saul also gathered all of Israel, and he arrived at Gilboa.
5 Και οτε ειδεν ο Σαουλ το στρατοπεδον των Φιλισταιων, εφοβηθη, και ετρομαξεν η καρδια αυτου σφοδρα.	5 And Saul saw the camp of the Philistines, and he was afraid, and his heart was exceedingly terrified.
6 Και ηρωτησεν ο Σαουλ τον Κυριον? αλλ' ο Κυριος δεν απεκριθη προς αυτον ουτε δι' ενυπνιων ουτε δια του Ουριμ ουτε δια προφητων.	6 And he consulted the Lord. But he did not respond to him, neither by dreams, nor by priests, nor by prophets.
7 Τοτε ειπεν ο Σαουλ προς τους δουλους αυτου, Ζητησατε μοι γυναικα εχουσαν πνευμα μαντειας, δια να υπαγω προς αυτην και να ερωτησω αυτην. Και οι δουλοι αυτου ειπον προς αυτον, Ιδου, ειναι εν Εν-δωρ γυνη τις εχουσα πνευμα μαντειας.	7 And Saul said to his servants, “Seek for me a woman having a divining spirit, and I will go to her, and consult through her.” And his servants said to him, “There is a woman having a divining spirit at Endor.”
8 Και μετεσχηματισθη ο Σαουλ και ενεδυθη αλλα ιματια, και υπηγεν αυτος και δυο ανδρες μετ' αυτου και ηλθον προς την γυναικα δια νυκτος? και ειπε, Μαντευσον, παρακαλω, εις εμε δια του πνευματος της μαντειας και αναβιβασον μοι οντινα σοι ειπω.	8 Therefore, he changed his usual appearance, and he put on other clothes. And he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night. And he said to her, “Divine for me, by your divining spirit, and raise up for me whomever I will tell you.”
9 Και ειπεν η γυνη προς αυτον, Ιδου, συ εξευρεις οσα εκαμεν ο Σαουλ, τινι τροπω εξωλοθρευσε τους εχοντας πνευμα μαντειας και τους μαγους εκ του τοπου? δια τι λοιπον συ παγιδευεις την ζωην μου, δια να με θανατωσωσι;	9 And the woman said to him: “Behold, you know how much Saul has done, and how he has wiped away the magi and soothsayers from the land. Why then do you set a trap for my life, so that it will be put to death?”
10 Και ωμοσε προς αυτην ο Σαουλ εις τον Κυριον, λεγων, Ζη Κυριος, δεν θελει σε συμβη ουδεν κακον δια τουτο.	10 And Saul swore to her by the Lord, saying, “As the Lord lives, nothing evil will befall you because of this matter.”
11 Τοτε ειπεν η γυνη, Τινα να σοι αναβιβασω; Και ειπε, τον Σαμουηλ αναβιβασον μοι.	11 And the woman said to him, “Whom shall I raise up for you?” And he said, “Raise up for me Samuel.”
12 Και οτε ειδεν γυνη τον Σαμουηλ, εβοησε μετα φωνης μεγαλης? και ειπεν η γυνη προς τον Σαουλ, λεγουσα, Δια τι με ηπατησας; και συ εισαι ο Σαουλ.	12 And when the woman had seen Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice, and she said to Saul: “Why have you afflicted me? For you are Saul!”
13 Και ειπε προς αυτην ο βασιλευς, Μη φοβου? τι ειδες λοιπον; Και ειπεν η γυνη προς τον Σαουλ, Θεους ειδον αναβαινοντας εκ της γης.	13 And the king said to her: “Do not be afraid. What have you seen?” And the woman said to Saul, “I saw gods ascending from the earth.”
14 Και ειπε προς αυτην, Τις ειναι η μορφη αυτου; Η δε ειπε, Γερων τις αναβαινει και ειναι περιτετυλιγμενος με επενδυμα. Και εγνωρισεν ο Σαουλ οτι ητο ο Σαμουηλ, και εκυψε κατα προσωπον εις την γην και προσεκυνησε.	14 And he said to her, “What appearance does he have?” And she said, “An old man ascends, and he is clothed in a cloak.” And Saul understood that it was Samuel. And he bowed himself upon his face on the ground, and he reverenced.
15 Και ειπεν ο Σαμουηλ προς τον Σαουλ, Δια τι με παρηνωχλησας, ωστε να με καμης να αναβω; Και απεκριθη ο Σαουλ, Ευρισκομαι εν μεγαλη αμηχανια? διοτι οι Φιλισταιοι πολεμουσιν εναντιον μου, και ο Θεος απεμακρυνθη απ' εμου και δεν μοι αποκρινεται πλεον ουτε δια προφητων ουτε δι' ενυπνιων? δια τουτο σε εκαλεσα δια να φανερωσης εις εμε τι να καμω.	15 Then Samuel said to Saul, “Why have you disquieted me, so that I would be raised up?” And Saul said: “I am greatly distressed. For the Philistines fight against me, and God has withdrawn from me, and he is not willing to heed me, neither by the hand of prophets, nor by dreams. Therefore, I have summoned you, so that you would reveal to me what I should do.”
16 Τοτε ειπεν ο Σαμουηλ, Δια τι λοιπον ερωτας εμε, αφου ο Κυριος απεμακρυνθη απο σου και εγεινεν εχθρος σου;	16 And Samuel said, “Why do you question me, though the Lord has withdrawn from you, and has crossed over to your rival?
17 ο Κυριος βεβαιως εκαμεν εις εαυτον ως ελαλησε δι' εμου? διοτι εξεσχισεν ο Κυριος την βασιλειαν εκ της χειρος σου και εδωκεν αυτην εις τον πλησιον σου, τον Δαβιδ?	17 For the Lord will do to you just as he spoke by my hand. And he will tear your kingdom from your hand. And he will give it to your neighbor David.
18 επειδη δεν υπηκουσας εις την φωνην του Κυριου, ουδε εξετελεσας τον μεγαν θυμον αυτου κατα του Αμαληκ, δια τουτο ο Κυριος εκαμεν εις σε το πραγμα τουτο την ημεραν ταυτην?	18 For you did not obey the voice of the Lord, and you did not carry out the wrath of his fury upon Amalek. For this reason, the Lord has done to you what you are enduring this day.
19 και θελει παραδωσει ο Κυριος και τον Ισραηλ μετα σου εις την χειρα των Φιλισταιων? και αυριον συ και οι υιοι σου θελετε εισθαι μετ' εμου? και το στρατοπεδον του Ισραηλ θελει παραδωσει ο Κυριος εις την χειρα των Φιλισταιων.	19 And the Lord also will give Israel into the hands of the Philistines, along with you. Then tomorrow you and your sons will be with me. But the Lord will also deliver the camp of Israel into the hands of the Philistines.”
20 Τοτε επεσεν ο Σαουλ ευθυς ολος εξηπλωμενος κατα γης? διοτι κατετρομαξεν εκ των λογων του Σαμουηλ? και δυναμις δεν ητο εν αυτω, επειδη δεν ειχε φαγει αρτον ολην την ημεραν και ολην την νυκτα.	20 And immediately, Saul fell stretched out on the ground. For he was terrified by the words of Samuel. And there was no strength in him. For he had not eaten bread all that day.
21 Και ηλθεν η γυνη προς τον Σαουλ και ειδεν οτι ητο σφοδρα τεταραγμενος, και ειπε προς αυτον, Ιδου, η δουλη σου υπηκουσεν εις την φωνην σου, και εβαλον την ζωην μου εις την χειρα μου και υπεταχθην εις τους λογους σου, τους οποιους ελαλησας προς εμε?	21 And so, the woman entered to Saul, (for he was very troubled) and she said to him: “Behold, your handmaid has obeyed your voice, and I have placed my life in my hand. And I have heeded the words which you spoke to me.
22 τωρα λοιπον, ακουσον και συ, παρακαλω, την φωνην της δουλης σου, και ας βαλω ολιγον αρτον εμπροσθεν σου? και φαγε, δια να λαβης δυναμιν, επειδη υπαγεις εις οδοιποριαν.	22 And so now, I ask you to heed the voice of your handmaid, and let me place before you a morsel of bread, so that, by eating, you may recover strength, and you may be able to undertake the journey.”
23 Πλην δεν ηθελε, λεγων, Δεν θελω φαγει? οι δουλοι ομως αυτου μετα της γυναικος εβιαζον αυτον, και εισηκουσεν εις την φωνην αυτων? και σηκωθεις απο της γης, εκαθησεν επι της κλινης.	23 But he refused, and he said, “I will not eat.” But his servants and the woman urged him, and after some time, heeding their voice, he rose up from the ground, and he sat upon the bed.
24 ειχε δε η γυνη παχυ δαμαλιον εν τη οικια? και εσπευσε και εσφαξεν αυτο? και λαβουσα αλευρον, εζυμωσε και εψησεν αζυμα εξ αυτου.	24 Now the woman had a fatted calf in the house, and she hurried and killed it. And taking meal, she kneaded it, and she baked unleavened bread.
25 Και εφερεν εμπροσθεν του Σαουλ και εμπροσθεν των δουλων αυτου? και εφαγον. Και εσηκωθησαν και ανεχωρησαν την νυκτα εκεινην.	25 And she set it before Saul and before his servants. And when they had eaten, they rose up, and they walked all through that night.
