1 Samuel 10

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Then, from a flask he had with him, Samuel poured oil on Saul's head; he also kissed him, saying: "The LORD anoints you commander over his heritage. You are to govern the LORD'S people Israel, and to save them from the grasp of their enemies round about. "This will be the sign for you that the LORD has anointed you commander over his heritage:	1 فاخذ صموئيل قنينة الدهن وصبّ على راسه وقبّله وقال أليس لان الرب قد مسحك على ميراثه رئيسا.
2 When you leave me today, you will meet two men near Rachel's tomb at Zelzah in the territory of Benjamin, who will say to you, 'The asses you went to look for have been found. Your father is no longer worried about the asses, but is anxious about you and says, What shall I do about my son?'	2 في ذهابك اليوم من عندي تصادف رجلين عند قبر راحيل في تخم بنيامين في صلصح فيقولان لك قد وجدت الاتن التي ذهبت تفتش عليها وهوذا ابوك قد ترك امر الاتن واهتم بكما قائلا ماذا اصنع لابني.
3 Farther on, when you arrive at the terebinth of Tabor, you will be met by three men going up to God at Bethel; one will be bringing three kids, another three loaves of bread, and the third a skin of wine.	3 وتعدو من هناك ذاهبا حتى تأتي الى بلوطة تابور فيصادفك هناك ثلاثة رجال صاعدون الى الله الى بيت ايل واحد حامل ثلاثة جداء وواحد حامل ثلاثة ارغفة خبز وواحد حامل زق خمر.
4 They will greet you and offer you two wave offerings of bread, which you will take from them.	4 فيسلمون عليك ويعطونك رغيفي خبز فتأخذ من يدهم.
5 After that you will come to Gibeath-elohim, where there is a garrison of the Philistines. As you enter that city, you will meet a band of prophets, in a prophetic state, coming down from the high place preceded by lyres, tambourines, flutes and harps.	5 بعد ذلك تأتي الى جبعة الله حيث انصاب الفلسطينيين ويكون عند مجيئك الى هناك الى المدينة انك تصادف زمرة من الانبياء نازلين من المرتفعة وامامهم رباب ودف وناي وعود وهم يتنبأون.
6 The spirit of the LORD will rush upon you, and you will join them in their prophetic state and will be changed into another man.	6 فيحل عليك روح الرب فتتنبأ معهم وتتحول الى رجل آخر.
7 When you see these signs fulfilled, do whatever you judge feasible, because God is with you.	7 واذا أتت هذه الآيات عليك فافعل ما وجدته يدك لان الله معك.
8 Now go down ahead of me to Gilgal, for I shall come down to you, to offer holocausts and to sacrifice peace offerings. Wait seven days until I come to you; I shall then tell you what you must do."	8 وتنزل قدامي الى الجلجال وهوذا انا انزل اليك لاصعد محرقات واذبح ذبائح سلامة. سبعة ايام تلبث حتى آتي اليك واعلمك ماذا تفعل
9 As Saul turned to leave Samuel, God gave him another heart. That very day all these signs came to pass. . . .	9 وكان عندما ادار كتفه لكي يذهب من عند صموئيل ان الله اعطاه قلبا آخر. وأتت جميع هذه الآيات في ذلك اليوم.
10 When they were going from there to Gibeah, a band of prophets met him, and the spirit of God rushed upon him, so that he joined them in their prophetic state.	10 ولما جاءوا الى هناك الى جبعة اذا بزمرة من الانبياء لقيته فحل عليه روح الله فتنبأ في وسطهم.
11 When all who had known him previously saw him in a prophetic state among the prophets, they said to one another, "What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?"	11 ولما رآه جميع الذين عرفوه منذ امس وما قبله انه يتنبّأ مع الانبياء قال الشعب الواحد لصاحبه ماذا صار لابن قيس. اشاول ايضا بين الانبياء.
12 And someone from that district added, "And who is their father?" Thus the proverb arose, "Is Saul also among the prophets?"	12 فاجاب رجل من هناك وقال ومن هو ابوهم. ولذلك ذهب مثلا أشاول ايضا بين الانبياء.
13 When he came out of the prophetic state, he went home.	13 ولما انتهى من التنبي جاء الى المرتفعة.
14 Saul's uncle inquired of him and his servant, "Where have you been?" Saul replied, "To look for the asses. When we could not find them, we went to Samuel."	14 فقال عم شاول له ولغلامه الى اين ذهبتما. فقال لكي نفتش على الاتن. ولما رأينا انها لم توجد جئنا الى صموئيل.
15 Then Saul's uncle said, "Tell me, then, what Samuel said to you."	15 فقال عم شاول اخبرني ماذا قال لكما صموئيل.
16 Saul said to his uncle, "He assured us that the asses had been found." But he mentioned nothing to him of what Samuel had said about the kingship.	16 فقال شاول لعمه. اخبرنا بان الاتن قد وجدت. ولكنه لم يخبره بامر المملكة الذي تكلم به صموئيل
17 Samuel called the people together to the LORD at Mizpah	17 واستدعى صموئيل الشعب الى الرب الى المصفاة.
18 and addressed the Israelites: "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, 'It was I who brought Israel up from Egypt and delivered you from the power of the Egyptians and from the power of all the kingdoms that oppressed you.'	18 وقال لبني اسرائيل هكذا يقول الرب اله اسرائيل. اني اصعدت اسرائيل من مصر وانقذتكم من يد المصريين ومن يد جميع الممالك التي ضايقتكم.
19 But today you have rejected your God, who delivers you from all your evils and calamities, by saying to him, 'Not so, but you must appoint a king over us.' Now, therefore, take your stand before the LORD according to tribes and families."	19 وانتم قد رفضتم اليوم الهكم الذي هو مخلّصكم من جميع الذين يسيئون اليكم ويضايقونكم وقلتم له بل تجعل علينا ملكا. فالآن امثلوا امام الرب حسب اسباطكم والوفكم.
20 So Samuel had all the tribes of Israel come forward, and the tribe of Benjamin was chosen.	20 فقدم صموئيل جميع اسباط اسرائيل فاخذ سبط بنيامين.
21 Next he had the tribe of Benjamin come forward in clans, and the clan of Matri was chosen, and finally Saul, son of Kish, was chosen. But they looked for him in vain.	21 ثم قدم سبط بنيامين حسب عشائره فأخذت عشيرة مطري وأخذ شاول بن قيس. ففتشوا عليه فلم يوجد.
22 Again they consulted the LORD, "Has he come here?" The LORD answered, "He is hiding among the baggage."	22 فسألوا ايضا من الرب هل يأتي الرجل ايضا الى هنا. فقال الرب هوذا قد اختبأ بين الامتعة.
23 They ran to bring him from there; and when he stood among the people, he was head and shoulders above all the crowd.	23 فركضوا واخذوه من هناك فوقف بين الشعب فكان اطول من كل الشعب من كتفه فما فوق.
24 Samuel said to all the people, "Do you see the man whom the LORD has chosen? There is none like him among all the people!" Then all the people shouted, "Long live the king!"	24 فقال صموئيل لجميع الشعب أرأيتم الذي اختاره الرب انه ليس مثله في جميع الشعب. فهتف كل الشعب وقالوا ليحي الملك.
25 Samuel next explained to the people the law of royalty and wrote it in a book, which he placed in the presence of the LORD. This done, Samuel dismissed the people, each to his own place.	25 فكلم صموئيل الشعب بقضاء المملكة وكتبه في السفر ووضعه امام الرب. ثم اطلق صموئيل جميع الشعب كل واحد الى بيته.
26 Saul also went home to Gibeah, accompanied by warriors whose hearts the LORD had touched.	26 وشاول ايضا ذهب الى بيته الى جبعة وذهب معه الجماعة التي مسّ الله قلبها.
27 But certain worthless men said, "How can this fellow save us?" They despised him and brought him no present.	27 واما بنو بليعال فقالوا كيف يخلّصنا هذا. فاحتقروه ولم يقدموا له هدية. فكان كاصمّ
