KING JAMES BIBLEGREEK BIBLE
1 Now it came to pass after the death of Saul, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and David had abode two days in Ziklag;1 Μετα δε τον θανατον του Σαουλ, αφου επεστρεψεν ο Δαβιδ απο της σφαγης των Αμαληκιτων, εκαθησεν ο Δαβιδ εν Σικλαγ δυο ημερας?
2 It came even to pass on the third day, that, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his clothes rent, and earth upon his head: and so it was, when he came to David, that he fell to the earth, and did obeisance.2 την δε τριτην ημεραν, ιδου, ηλθεν ανθρωπος εκ του στρατοπεδου απο πλησιον του Σαουλ, εχων διεσχισμενα τα ιματια αυτου και χωμα επι της κεφαλης αυτου? και καθως εισηλθε προς τον Δαβιδ, επεσεν εις την γην και προσεκυνησε.
3 And David said unto him, From whence comest thou? And he said unto him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped.3 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Δαβιδ, Ποθεν ερχεσαι; Ο δε ειπε προς αυτον, Εγω εκ του στρατοπεδου του Ισραηλ διεσωθην.
4 And David said unto him, How went the matter? I pray thee, tell me. And he answered, That the people are fled from the battle, and many of the people also are fallen and dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also.4 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Δαβιδ, Τι συνεβη; ειπε μοι, παρακαλω. Και απεκριθη, Οτι εφυγεν ο λαος εκ της μαχης, και πολλοι μαλιστα εκ του λαου επεσον και απεθανον? απεθανον δε και Σαουλ και Ιωναθαν ο υιος αυτου.
5 And David said unto the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son be dead?5 Και ειπεν ο Δαβιδ προς τον νεον τον απαγγελλοντα προς αυτον, Πως εξευρεις οτι απεθανεν ο Σαουλ, και Ιωναθαν ο υιος αυτου;
6 And the young man that told him said, As I happened by chance upon mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned upon his spear; and, lo, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.6 Και ειπεν ο νεος ο απαγγελλων προς αυτον, Ευρεθην κατα τυχην εν τω ορει Γελβουε, και ιδου, ο Σαουλ ητο κεκλιμενος επι του δορατος αυτου, και ιδου, αι αμαξαι και οι ιππεις κατεφθανον αυτον.
7 And when he looked behind him, he saw me, and called unto me. And I answered, Here am I.7 και οτε εβλεψεν εις τα οπισω αυτου, με ειδε και με εκαλεσε? και απεκριθην, Ιδου, εγω.
8 And he said unto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite.8 Και ειπε προς εμε, Ποιος εισαι; Και απεκριθην προς αυτον, Ειμαι Αμαληκιτης.
9 And he said unto me again, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me: for anguish is come upon me, because my life is yet whole in me.9 Παλιν ειπε προς εμε, Στηθι επανω μου, παρακαλω, και θανατωσον με? διοτι σκοτοδινιασις με κατελαβεν, επειδη η ζωη μου ειναι ετι ολη εν εμοι.
10 So I stood upon him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he was fallen: and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither unto my lord.10 Εσταθην λοιπον επ' αυτον και εθανατωσα αυτον? επειδη ημην βεβαιος οτι δεν ηδυνατο να ζηση αφου επεσε? και ελαβον το διαδημα το επι της κεφαλης αυτου και το βραχιολιον το εν τω βραχιονι αυτου, και εφερα αυτα ενταυθα προς τον κυριον μου.
11 Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him:11 Τοτε πιασας ο Δαβιδ τα ιματια αυτου, διεσχισεν αυτα? και παντες ομοιως οι ανδρες οι μετ' αυτου.
12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword.12 Και επενθησαν και εκλαυσαν και ενηστευσαν εως εσπερας δια τον Σαουλ και δια Ιωναθαν τον υιον αυτου και δια τον λαον του Κυριου και δια τον οικον του Ισραηλ, διοτι επεσον δια ρομφαιας.
13 And David said unto the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he answered, I am the son of a stranger, an Amalekite.13 Ειπε δε ο Δαβιδ προς τον νεον, τον απαγγελλοντα προς αυτον, Ποθεν εισαι; Και απεκριθη, Ειμαι υιος παροικου τινος Αμαληκιτου.
14 And David said unto him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thine hand to destroy the LORD's anointed?14 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Δαβιδ, Πως δεν εφοβηθης να επιβαλης την χειρα σου δια να θανατωσης τον κεχρισμενον του Κυριου;
15 And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, and fall upon him. And he smote him that he died.15 Και εκαλεσεν ο Δαβιδ ενα εκ των νεων και ειπε, Πλησιασον, πεσον επ' αυτον. Και επαταξεν αυτον, και απεθανε.
16 And David said unto him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I have slain the LORD's anointed.16 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Δαβιδ, Το αιμα σου επι της κεφαλης σου? διοτι το στομα σου εμαρτυρησεν εναντιον σου, λεγων, Εγω εθανατωσα τον κεχρισμενον του Κυριου.
17 And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son:17 Και εθρηνησεν ο Δαβιδ τον θρηνον τουτον επι τον Σαουλ και επι Ιωναθαν τον υιον αυτου?
18 (Also he bade them teach the children of Judah the use of the bow: behold, it is written in the book of Jasher.)18 και παρηγγειλε να διδαξωσι τους υιους Ιουδα τουτο το ασμα του τοξου? ιδου, ειναι γεγραμμενον εν τω βιβλιω του Ιασηρ.
19 The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places: how are the mighty fallen!19 Ω δοξα του Ισραηλ, επι τους υψηλους τοπους σου κατηκοντισμενη. Πως επεσον οι δυνατοι.
20 Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Askelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.20 Μη αναγγειλητε εις την Γαθ, μη διακηρυξητε εις τας πλατειας της Ασκαλωνος, μηποτε χαρωσιν αι θυγατερες των Φιλισταιων, μηποτε αγαλλιασωνται αι θυγατερες των απεριτμητων?
21 Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew, neither let there be rain, upon you, nor fields of offerings: for there the shield of the mighty is vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, as though he had not been anointed with oil.21 Ορη τα εν Γελβουε, Ας μη ηναι δροσος μηδε βροχη εφ' υμας, μηδε αγροι διδοντες απαρχας? διοτι εκει απερριφθη η ασπις των ισχυρων, Η ασπις του Σαουλ, ως να μη εχρισθη δι' ελαιου.
22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, the bow of Jonathan turned not back, and the sword of Saul returned not empty.22 Απο του αιματος των πεφονευμενων, απο του στεατος των ισχυρων, το τοξον του Ιωναθαν δεν εστρεφετο οπισω, και η ρομφαια του Σαουλ δεν επεστρεφε κενη.
23 Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in their death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions.23 Σαουλ και Ιωναθαν ησαν οι ηγαπημενοι και ερασμιοι εν τη ζωη αυτων, και εν τω θανατω αυτων δεν εχωρισθησαν? ησαν ελαφροτεροι αετων, δυνατωτεροι λεοντων.
24 Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet, with other delights, who put on ornaments of gold upon your apparel.24 Θυγατερες Ισραηλ, κλαυσατε επι τον Σαουλ τον ενδυοντα υμας κοκκινα μετα καλλωπισμων, τον επιβαλλοντα στολισμους χρυσους επι τα ενδυματα υμων.
25 How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! O Jonathan, thou was slain in thine high places.25 Πως επεσον οι δυνατοι εν μεσω της μαχης? Ιωναθαν, επι τους υψηλους τοπους σου τετραυματισμενε.
26 I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant hast thou been unto me: thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women.26 Περιλυπος ειμαι δια σε, αδελφε μου Ιωναθαν? προσφιλεστατος εσταθης εις εμε? η προς εμε αγαπη σου ητο εξαισιος. Υπερεβαινε την αγαπην των γυναικων.
27 How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished!27 Πως επεσον οι δυνατοι, και απωλεσθησαν τα οπλα του πολεμου.
