1 Samuel 4

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
1 And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight: and Israel went out to war against the Philistines, and camped by the Stone of help. And the Philistines came to Aphec,	1 και εγενηθη εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις και συναθροιζονται αλλοφυλοι εις πολεμον επι ισραηλ και εξηλθεν ισραηλ εις απαντησιν αυτοις εις πολεμον και παρεμβαλλουσιν επι αβενεζερ και οι αλλοφυλοι παρεμβαλλουσιν εν αφεκ
2 And put their army in array against Israel. And when they had joined battle, Israel turned their backs to the Philistines, and there was slain in that fight here and there in the fields about four thousand men.	2 και παρατασσονται οι αλλοφυλοι εις πολεμον επι ισραηλ και εκλινεν ο πολεμος και επταισεν ανηρ ισραηλ ενωπιον αλλοφυλων και επληγησαν εν τη παραταξει εν αγρω τεσσαρες χιλιαδες ανδρων
3 And the people returned to the camp: and the ancients of Israel said: Why hath the Lord defeated us to day before the Philistines? Let us fetch unto us the ark of the covenant of the Lord from Silo, and let it come in the midst of us, that it may save us from the hand of our enemies.	3 και ηλθεν ο λαος εις την παρεμβολην και ειπαν οι πρεσβυτεροι ισραηλ κατα τι επταισεν ημας κυριος σημερον ενωπιον αλλοφυλων λαβωμεν την κιβωτον του θεου ημων εκ σηλωμ και εξελθετω εν μεσω ημων και σωσει ημας εκ χειρος εχθρων ημων
4 So the people sent to Silo, and they brought from thence the ark of the covenant of the Lord of hosts sitting upon the cherubims: and the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were with the ark of the covenant of God.	4 και απεστειλεν ο λαος εις σηλωμ και αιρουσιν εκειθεν την κιβωτον κυριου καθημενου χερουβιμ και αμφοτεροι οι υιοι ηλι μετα της κιβωτου οφνι και φινεες
5 And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, and the earth rang again.	5 και εγενηθη ως ηλθεν κιβωτος κυριου εις την παρεμβολην και ανεκραξεν πας ισραηλ φωνη μεγαλη και ηχησεν η γη
6 And the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, and they said: What is this noise of a great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the Lord was come into the camp.	6 και ηκουσαν οι αλλοφυλοι της κραυγης και ειπον οι αλλοφυλοι τις η κραυγη η μεγαλη αυτη εν παρεμβολη των εβραιων και εγνωσαν οτι κιβωτος κυριου ηκει εις την παρεμβολην
7 And the Philistines were afraid, saying: God is come into the camp. And sighing, they said:	7 και εφοβηθησαν οι αλλοφυλοι και ειπον ουτοι οι θεοι ηκασιν προς αυτους εις την παρεμβολην ουαι ημιν εξελου ημας κυριε σημερον οτι ου γεγονεν τοιαυτη εχθες και τριτην
8 Woe to us: for there was no such great joy yesterday and the day before: Woe to us. Who shall deliver us from the hand of these high gods? these are the gods that struck Egypt with all the plagues in the desert.	8 ουαι ημιν τις εξελειται ημας εκ χειρος των θεων των στερεων τουτων ουτοι οι θεοι οι παταξαντες την αιγυπτον εν παση πληγη και εν τη ερημω
9 Take courage and behave like men, ye Philistines: lest you come to be servants to the Hebrews, as they have served you: take courage and fight.	9 κραταιουσθε και γινεσθε εις ανδρας αλλοφυλοι μηποτε δουλευσητε τοις εβραιοις καθως εδουλευσαν ημιν και εσεσθε εις ανδρας και πολεμησατε αυτους
10 So the Philistines fought, and Israel was overthrown, and every man fled to his own dwelling: and there was an exceeding great slaughter; for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.	10 και επολεμησαν αυτους και πταιει ανηρ ισραηλ και εφυγεν εκαστος εις σκηνωμα αυτου και εγενετο πληγη μεγαλη σφοδρα και επεσαν εξ ισραηλ τριακοντα χιλιαδες ταγματων
11 And the ark of God was taken: and the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were slain.	11 και κιβωτος θεου ελημφθη και αμφοτεροι υιοι ηλι απεθανον οφνι και φινεες
12 And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the army, and came to Silo the same day, with his clothes rent, and his head strewed with dust.	12 και εδραμεν ανηρ ιεμιναιος εκ της παραταξεως και ηλθεν εις σηλωμ εν τη ημερα εκεινη και τα ιματια αυτου διερρηγοτα και γη επι της κεφαλης αυτου
13 And when he was come, Heli sat upon a stool over against the way watching. For his heart was fearful for the ark of God. And when the man was come into the city, he told it: and all the city cried out.	13 και ηλθεν και ιδου ηλι εκαθητο επι του διφρου παρα την πυλην σκοπευων την οδον οτι ην η καρδια αυτου εξεστηκυια περι της κιβωτου του θεου και ο ανθρωπος εισηλθεν εις την πολιν απαγγειλαι και ανεβοησεν η πολις
14 And Heli heard the noise of the cry, and he said: What meaneth the noise of this uproar? But he made haste, and came, and told Heli.	14 και ηκουσεν ηλι την φωνην της βοης και ειπεν τις η βοη της φωνης ταυτης και ο ανθρωπος σπευσας εισηλθεν και απηγγειλεν τω ηλι
15 Now Heli was ninety and eight years old, and his eyes were dim, and he could not see.	15 και ηλι υιος ενενηκοντα ετων και οι οφθαλμοι αυτου επανεστησαν και ουκ εβλεπεν και ειπεν ηλι τοις ανδρασιν τοις περιεστηκοσιν αυτω τις η φωνη του ηχους τουτου
16 And he said to Heli: I am he that came from the battle, and have fled out of the field this day. And he said to him: What is there done, my son?	16 και ο ανηρ σπευσας προσηλθεν προς ηλι και ειπεν αυτω εγω ειμι ο ηκων εκ της παρεμβολης καγω πεφευγα εκ της παραταξεως σημερον και ειπεν τι το γεγονος ρημα τεκνον
17 And he that brought the news answered, and said: Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has been a great slaughter of the people: moreover thy two sons, Ophni and Phinees, are dead: and the ark of God is taken.	17 και απεκριθη το παιδαριον και ειπεν πεφευγεν ανηρ ισραηλ εκ προσωπου αλλοφυλων και εγενετο πληγη μεγαλη εν τω λαω και αμφοτεροι οι υιοι σου τεθνηκασιν και η κιβωτος του θεου ελημφθη
18 And when he had named the ark of God, he fell from his stool backwards by the door, and broke his neck, and died. For he was an old man, and far advanced in years: and he judged Israel forty years.	18 και εγενετο ως εμνησθη της κιβωτου του θεου και επεσεν απο του διφρου οπισθιως εχομενος της πυλης και συνετριβη ο νωτος αυτου και απεθανεν οτι πρεσβυτης ο ανθρωπος και βαρυς και αυτος εκρινεν τον ισραηλ εικοσι ετη
19 And his daughter in law the wife of Phinees, was big with child, and near her time: and hearing the news that the ark of God was taken, and her father in law, and her husband, were dead, she bowed herself and fell in labour: for her pains came upon her on a sudden.	19 και νυμφη αυτου γυνη φινεες συνειληφυια του τεκειν και ηκουσεν την αγγελιαν οτι ελημφθη η κιβωτος του θεου και οτι τεθνηκεν ο πενθερος αυτης και ο ανηρ αυτης και ωκλασεν και ετεκεν οτι επεστραφησαν επ' αυτην ωδινες αυτης
20 And when she was upon the point of death, they that stood about her said to her: Fear not, for thou hast borne a son. She answered them not, nor gave heed to them.	20 και εν τω καιρω αυτης αποθνησκει και ειπον αυτη αι γυναικες αι παρεστηκυιαι αυτη μη φοβου οτι υιον τετοκας και ουκ απεκριθη και ουκ ενοησεν η καρδια αυτης
21 And she called the child Ichabod, saying: The glory is gone from Israel, because the ark of God was taken, and for her father in law, and her husband:	21 και εκαλεσεν το παιδαριον ουαι βαρχαβωθ υπερ της κιβωτου του θεου και υπερ του πενθερου αυτης και υπερ του ανδρος αυτης
22 And she said: The glory is departed from Israel, because the ark of God was taken.	22 και ειπαν απωκισται δοξα ισραηλ εν τω λημφθηναι την κιβωτον κυριου
