ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΩΝ Α´ - 1 Samuele - Kings I 25

GREEK BIBLE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Απεθανε δε ο Σαμουηλ? και συνηχθησαν πας ο Ισραηλ και εκλαυσαν αυτον, και ενεταφιασαν αυτον εν τω οικω αυτου εν Ραμα. Και εσηκωθη ο Δαβιδ και κατεβη εις την ερημον Φαραν.	1 And Samuel died, and all Israel was gathered together, and they mourned for him, and buried him in his house in Ramatha. And David rose and went down into the wilderness of Pharan.
2 Ητο δε ανθρωπος τις εν Μαων, του οποιου τα κτηματα ησαν εν τω Καρμηλω, και ο ανθρωπος ητο μεγας σφοδρα και ειχε τρισχιλια προβατα και χιλιας αιγας? και εκουρευε τα προβατα αυτου εν τω Καρμηλω.	2 Now there was a certain man in the wilderness of Maon, and his possessions were in Carmel, and the man was very great: and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and it happened that he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
3 Το δε ονομα του ανθρωπου ητο Ναβαλ? και το ονομα της γυναικος αυτου Αβιγαια? και η μεν γυνη ητο καλη εις την συνεσιν και ωραια την οψιν? ο ανθρωπος ομως σκληρος, και κακος εις τας πραξεις αυτου? ητο δε εκ της γενεας του Χαλεβ.	3 Now the name of the man was Nabal: and the name of his wife was Abigail. And she was a prudent and very comely woman, but her husband was churlish, and very bad and ill natured: and he was of the house of Caleb.
4 Και ηκουσεν ο Δαβιδ εν τη ερημω, οτι ο Ναβαλ εκουρευε τα προβατα αυτου.	4 And when David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep,
5 Και απεστειλεν ο Δαβιδ δεκα νεους, και ειπεν ο Δαβιδ προς τους νεους, Αναβητε εις τον Καρμηλον και υπαγετε προς τον Ναβαλ και χαιρετησατε αυτον εξ ονοματος μου.	5 He sent ten young men, and said to them: Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and salute him in my name with peace.
6 και θελετε ειπει, Να ησαι πολυχρονιος? ειρηνη και εις σε, ειρηνη και εις τον οικον σου, ειρηνη και εις παντα οσα εχεις?	6 And you shall say: Peace be to my brethren, and to thee, and peace to thy house, and peace to all that thou hast.
7 και τωρα ηκουσα οτι εχεις κουρευτας? ιδου, τους ποιμενας σου, οιτινες ησαν μεθ' ημων, δεν εβλαψαμεν αυτους, ουδε εχαθη τι εις αυτους, καθ' ολον τον καιρον καθ' ον ησαν εν τω Καρμηλω?	7 I heard that thy shepherds that were with us in the desert were shearing: we never molested them, neither was there ought missing to them of the flock at any time, all the while they were with us in Carmel.
8 ερωτησον τους νεους σου, και θελουσι σοι ειπει? ας ευρωσι λοιπον οι νεοι ουτοι χαριν εις τους οφθαλμους σου? διοτι εις ημεραν καλην ηλθομεν? δος, παρακαλουμεν, ο, τι ελθη εις την χειρα σου προς τους δουλους σου και προς τον υιον σου τον Δαβιδ.	8 Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Now therefore let thy servants find favour in thy eyes: for we are come in a good day, whatsoever thy hand shall find give to thy servants, and to thy son David.
9 Και ελθοντες οι νεοι του Δαβιδ ελαλησαν προς τον Ναβαλ κατα παντας τους λογους τουτους εν ονοματι του Δαβιδ, και επαυσαν.	9 And when David's servants came, they spoke to Nabal all these words in David's name: and then held their peace.
10 Αλλ' ο Ναβαλ απεκριθη προς τους δουλους του Δαβιδ και ειπε, Τις ειναι ο Δαβιδ; και τις ο υιος του Ιεσσαι; πολλοι ειναι την σημερον οι δουλοι, οιτινες αποσκιρτωσιν εκαστος απο του κυριου αυτου?	10 But Nabal answering the servants of David, said: Who is David? and what is the son of Isai? servants are multiplied now a days who flee from their masters.
11 θελω λαβει λοιπον τον αρτον μου και το υδωρ μου και το σφακτον μου, το οποιον εσφαξα δια τους κουρευτας μου, και δωσει εις ανθρωπους τους οποιους δεν γνωριζω ποθεν ειναι;	11 Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and the flesh of my cattle, which I have killed for my shearers, and give to men whom I know not whence they are?
12 Και εστραφησαν οι νεοι του Δαβιδ εις την οδον αυτων και ανεχωρησαν και ελθοντες απηγγειλαν προς αυτον παντας τους λογους τουτους.	12 So the servants of David went back their way, and returning came and told him all the words that he said.
13 Και ειπεν ο Δαβιδ προς τους ανδρας αυτου, Ζωσθητε εκαστος την ρομφαιαν αυτου. Και εζωσθησαν εκαστος την ρομφαιαν αυτου? και ο Δαβιδ ομοιως εζωσθη την ρομφαιαν αυτου? και ανεβησαν κατοπιν του Δαβιδ εως τετρακοσιοι ανδρες? διακοσιοι δε εμειναν πλησιον της αποσκευης.	13 Then David said to his young men: Let every man gird on his sword. And they girded on every man his sword. And David also girded on his sword: and there followed David about four hundred men: and two hundred remained with the baggage.
14 Εις δε εκ των νεων απηγγειλε προς την Αβιγαιαν, την γυναικα του Ναβαλ, λεγων, Ιδου, ο Δαβιδ απεστειλε μηνυτας εκ της ερημου δια να χαιρετηση τον κυριον ημων, και εκεινος απεδιωξεν αυτους?	14 But one of the servants told Abigail the wife of Nabal, saying: Behold David sent messengers out of the wilderness, to salute our master: and he rejected them.
15 οι ανδρες ομως εσταθησαν πολυ καλοι προς ημας και δεν εβλαφθημεν ουδε εχασαμεν ουδεν, οσον καιρον συνανεστραφημεν μετ' αυτων, οτε ημεθα εν τοις αγροις?	15 These men were very good to us, and gave us no trouble: neither did we ever lose any thing all the time that we conversed with them in the desert.
16 ησαν ως τειχος περιξ ημων και νυκτα και ημεραν, καθ' ολον τον καιρον καθ' ον ημεθα μετ' αυτων βοσκοντες τα προβατα?	16 They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
17 τωρα λοιπον, γνωρισον και ιδε τι θελεις καμει συ? διοτι κακον απεφασισθη κατα του κυριου ημων, και κατα παντος του οικου αυτου? επειδη ειναι ανθρωπος δυστροπος, ωστε ουδεις δυναται να ομιληση προς αυτον.	17 Wherefore consider, and think what thou hast to do: for evil is determined against thy husband, and against thy house, and he is a son of Belial, so that no man can speak to him.
18 Τοτε εσπευσεν η Αβιγαια, και ελαβε διακοσιους αρτους, και δυο αγγεια οινου, και πεντε προβατα ητοιμασμενα, και πεντε μετρα σιτου πεφρυγανισμενου, και εκατον δεσμας σταφιδος, και διακοσιας πηττας συκων, και εθεσεν αυτα επι ονων.	18 Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of dry figs, and laid them upon asses:
19 Και ειπε προς τους νεους αυτης, Προπορευεσθε εμπροσθεν μου? ιδου, εγω ερχομαι κατοπιν σας? προς τον Ναβαλ ομως τον ανδρα αυτης δεν εφανερωσε τουτο.	19 And she said to her servants: Go before me: behold I will follow after you: but she told not her husband Nabal.
20 Και καθως αυτη, καθημενη επι του ονου, κατεβαινεν υπο την σκεπην του ορους, ιδου, ο Δαβιδ και οι ανδρες αυτου κατεβαινον προς αυτην? και συνηντησεν αυτους.	20 And when she had gotten upon an ass, and was coming down to the foot of the mountain, David and his men came down over against her, and she met them.
21 ειχε δε ειπει ο Δαβιδ, Ματαιως τωοντι εφυλαξα παντα οσα ειχεν ουτος εν τη ερημω, και δεν εχαθη ουδεν εκ παντων των κτηματων αυτου? και ανταπεδωκεν εις εμε κακον αντι καλου?	21 And David said: Truly in vain have I kept all that belonged to this man in the wilderness, and nothing was lost of all that pertained unto him: and he hath returned me evil for good.
22 ουτω να καμη ο Θεος εις τους εχθρους του Δαβιδ και ουτω να προσθεση, εαν εως το πρωι αφησω εκ παντων των πραγματων αυτου ουρουντα εις τοιχον.	22 May God do so and so, and add more to the foes of David, if I leave of all that belong to him till the morning, any that pisseth against the wall.
23 Και καθως ειδεν η Αβιγαια τον Δαβιδ, εσπευσε και κατεβη απο του ονου και επεσεν ενωπιον του Δαβιδ κατα προσωπον και προσεκυνησεν εως εδαφους.	23 And when Abigail saw David she made haste and lighted off the ass, and fell before David, on her face, and adored upon the ground.
24 Και προσεπεσεν εις τους ποδας αυτου και ειπεν, Επ' εμε, επ' εμε, κυριε μου, ας ηναι αυτη η αδικια? και ας λαληση, παρακαλω, η δουλη σου εις τα ωτα σου, και ακουσον τους λογους της δουλης σου.	24 And she fell at his feet, and said: Upon me let this iniquity be, my lord: let thy handmaid speak, I beseech thee, in thy ears: and hear the words of thy servant.
25 Ας μη δωση ο κυριος μου, παρακαλω, ουδεμιαν προσοχην εις τουτον τον δυστροπον ανθρωπον, τον Ναβαλ? διοτι κατα το ονομα αυτου, τοιουτος ειναι? Ναβαλ το ονομα αυτου, και αφροσυνη μετ' αυτου? εγω δε η δουλη σου δεν ειδον τους νεους του κυριου μου, τους οποιους απεστειλας.	25 Let not my lord the king, I pray, regard this naughty man Nabal: for according to his name, he is a fool, and folly is with him: but I thy handmaid did not see thy servants, my lord, whom thou sentest.
26 Τωρα λοιπον, κυριε μου, ζη Κυριος και ζη η ψυχη σου, ο Κυριος βεβαιως σε εκρατησεν απο του να εμβης εις αιμα και να εκδικηθης δια της χειρος σου? τωρα δε οι εχθροι σου και οι ζητουντες κακον εις τον κυριον μου, ας ηναι ως ο Ναβαλ.	26 Now therefore, my lord, the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, who hath withholden thee from coming to blood, and hath saved thy hand to thee: and now let thy enemies be as Nabal, and all they that seek evil to my lord.
27 Και τωρα αυτη η προσφορα, την οποιαν η δουλη σου εφερε προς τον κυριον μου, ας δοθη εις τους νεους τους ακολουθουντας τον κυριον μου.	27 Wherefore receive this blessing, which thy handmaid hath brought to thee, my lord: and give it to the young men that follow thee, my lord.
28 Συγχωρησον, παρακαλω, το αμαρτημα της δουλης σου? διοτι ο Κυριος θελει βεβαιως καμει εις τον κυριον μου οικον ασφαλη, επειδη μαχεται ο κυριος μου τας μαχας του Κυριου, και κακια δεν ευρεθη εν σοι πωποτε.	28 Forgive the iniquity of thy handmaid: for the Lord will surely make for my lord a faithful house, because thou, my lord, fightest the battles of the Lord: let not evil therefore be found in thee all the days of thy life.
29 Αν και εσηκωθη ανθρωπος καταδιωκων σε και ζητων την ψυχην σου, η ψυχη ομως του κυριου μου θελει εισθαι δεδεμενη εις τον δεσμον της ζωης πλησιον Κυριου του Θεου σου? τας δε ψυχας των εχθρων σου, ταυτας θελει εκσφενδονισει εκ μεσου της σφενδονης.	29 For if a man at any time shall rise, and persecute thee, and seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be kept, as in the bundle of the living, with the Lord thy God: but the souls of thy enemies shall be whirled, as with the violence and whirling of a sling.
30 Και οταν καμη ο Κυριος εις τον κυριον μου κατα παντα τα αγαθα τα οποια ελαλησε περι σου, και σε καταστηση κυβερνητην επι τον Ισραηλ,	30 And when the Lord shall have done to thee, my lord, all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have made thee prince over Israel,
31 δεν θελει εισθαι τουτο σκανδαλον εις σε ουδε προσκομμα καρδιας εις τον κυριον μου, η οτι εχυσας αιμα αναιτιον, η οτι ο κυριος μου εξεδικησεν αυτος εαυτον? πλην οταν ο Κυριος αγαθοποιηση τον κυριον μου, τοτε ενθυμηθητι την δουλην σου.	31 This shall not be an occasion of grief to thee, and a scruple of heart to my lord, that thou hast shed innocent blood, or hast revenged thyself: and when the Lord shall have done well by my lord, thou shalt remember thy handmaid.
32 Και ειπεν ο Δαβιδ προς την Αβιγαιαν, Ευλογητος Κυριος ο Θεος του Ισραηλ, οστις σε απεστειλε την ημεραν ταυτην εις συναντησιν μου?	32 And David said to Abigail: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me, and blessed be thy speech:
33 και ευλογημενη η βουλη σου και ευλογημενη συ, ητις με εφυλαξας την ημεραν ταυτην απο του να εμβω εις αιματα και να εκδικηθω δια της χειρος μου?	33 And blessed be thou, who hast kept me to day, from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand.
34 διοτι αληθως, ζη Κυριος ο Θεος του Ισραηλ, οστις με εμποδισεν απο του να σε κακοποιησω, εαν δεν ηθελες σπευσει να ελθης εις συναντησιν μου, δεν ηθελε μεινει εις τον Ναβαλ εως της αυγης ουρων εις τοιχον.	34 Otherwise as the Lord liveth the God of Israel, who hath withholden me from doing thee any evil: if thou hadst not quickly come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
35 Και ελαβεν ο Δαβιδ εκ της χειρος αυτης τα οσα εφερε προς αυτον? και ειπε προς αυτην, Αναβα προς τον οικον σου εν ειρηνη? βλεπε, εισηκουσα της φωνης σου και ετιμησα το προσωπον σου.	35 And David received at her hand all that she had brought him, and said to her: Go in peace into thy house, behold I have heard thy voice, and have honoured thy face.
36 Και ηλθεν η Αβιγαια προς τον Ναβαλ? και ιδου, ειχε συμποσιον εν τω οικω αυτου, ως συμποσιον βασιλεως? και η καρδια του Ναβαλ ητο ευθυμος εν αυτω, και ητο εις ακρον μεθυσμενος? οθεν δεν απηγγειλε προς αυτον ουδεν, μικρον μεγα, εως της αυγης.	36 And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold he had a feast in his house, like the feast of a king, and Nabal's heart was merry: for he was very drunk: and she told him nothing less or more until morning.
37 Το πρωι ομως, αφου ο Ναβαλ εξεμεθυσεν, εφανερωσε προς αυτον η γυνη αυτου τα πραγματα ταυτα? και ενεκρωθη η καρδια αυτου εντος αυτου και εγεινεν ως λιθος.	37 But early in the morning when Nabal had digested his wine, his wife told him these words, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
38 Και μετα δεκα ημερας περιπου επαταξεν ο Κυριος τον Ναβαλ, και απεθανε.	38 And after ten days had passed, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.
39 Και οτε ηκουσεν ο Δαβιδ οτι απεθανεν ο Ναβαλ, ειπεν, Ευλογητος Κυριος, οστις εκρινε την κρισιν μο περι του ονειδισμου μου του γενομενου παρα του Ναβαλ, και ημποδισε τον δουλον αυτου απο κακου? και την κακιαν του Ναβαλ εστρεψεν ο Κυριος κατα της κεφαλης αυτου. Και απεστειλεν ο Δαβιδ και ελαλησε προς την Αβιγαιαν, δια να λαβη αυτην γυναικα εις εαυτον.	39 And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: Blessed be the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head. The n David sent and treated with Abigail, that he might take her to himself for a wife.
40 Και ελθοντες οι δουλοι του Δαβιδ προς την Αβιγαιαν εις τον Καρμηλον, ελαλησαν προς αυτην, λεγοντες, Ο Δαβιδ απεστειλεν ημας προς σε, δια να σε λαβη γυναικα εις εαυτον.	40 And David's servants came to Abigail to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying: David hath sent us to thee, to take thee to himself for a wife.
41 Και εσηκωθη και προσεκυνησε κατα προσωπον εως εδαφους και ειπεν, Ιδου, ας ηναι η δουλη σου θεραπαινα δια να πλυνη τους ποδας των δουλων του κυριου μου.	41 And she arose and bowed herself down with her face to the earth, and said: Behold, let thy servant be a handmaid, to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.
42 Και εσπευσεν η Αβιγαια και εσηκωθη και ανεβη επι του ονου, μετα πεντε κορασιων αυτης ακολουθουντων οπισω αυτης? και υπηγε κατοπιν των απεσταλμενων του Δαβιδ και εγεινε γυνη αυτου.	42 And Abigail arose, and made haste, and got upon an ass, and five damsels went with her, her waiting maids, and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.
43 Ελαβεν ο Δαβιδ και την Αχινοαμ απο Ιεζραελ? και ησαν αμφοτεραι γυναικες αυτου.	43 Moreover David took also Achinoam of Jezrahel: and they were both of them his wives.
44 Ο δε Σαουλ ειχε δωσει Μιχαλ, την θυγατερα αυτου, την γυναικα του Δαβιδ, εις τον Φαλτι τον υιον του Λαεις, τον απο Γαλλειμ.	44 But Saul gave Michol his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti, the son of Lais, who was of Gallium.
