SMITH VAN DYKE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 وكان بعد موت شاول ورجوع داود من مضاربة العمالقة ان داود اقام في صقلغ يومين.	1 Now it happened that, after Saul died, David returned from the slaughter of Amalek, and he remained for two days at Ziklag.
2 وفي اليوم الثالث اذا برجل اتى من المحلّة من عند شاول وثيابه ممزقة وعلى راسه تراب. فلما جاء الى داود خرّ الى الارض وسجد.	2 Then, on the third day, a man appeared, arriving from the camp of Saul, with his garments torn and dust sprinkled on his head. And when he came to David, he fell on his face, and he reverenced.
3 فقال له داود من اين اتيت. فقال له من محلّة اسرائيل نجوت.	3 And David said to him, “Where have you come from?” And he said to him, “I have fled from the camp of Israel.”
4 فقال له داود كيف كان الامر. اخبرني. فقال ان الشعب قد هرب من القتال وسقط ايضا كثيرون من الشعب وماتوا ومات شاول ويوناثان ابنه ايضا.	4 And David said to him: “What is the word that has happened? Reveal it to me.” And he said: “The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people have fallen and died. Moreover, Saul and his son Jonathan have passed away.”
5 فقال داود للغلام الذي اخبره كيف عرفت انه قد مات شاول ويوناثان ابنه.	5 And David said to the youth who was reporting to him, “How do you know that Saul and his son Jonathan have died?”
6 فقال الغلام الذي اخبره اتفق اني كنت في جبل جلبوع واذا شاول يتوكأ على رمحه واذا بالمركبات والفرسان يشدّون وراءه.	6 And the youth, who was reporting it to him, said: “I arrived by chance on mount Gilboa. And Saul was lying upon his spear. Then the chariots and horsemen drew near to him.
7 فالتفت الى ورائه فرآني ودعاني فقلت هانذا.	7 And turning behind his back and seeing me, he called to me. And when I had responded, “I am here,”
8 فقال لي من انت فقلت له عماليقي انا.	8 he said to me, “Who are you?” And I said to him, “I am an Amalekite.”
9 فقال لي قف عليّ واقتلني لانه قد اعتراني الدوار لان كل نفسي بعد فيّ.	9 And he said to me: “Stand over me, and kill me. For anguish has taken hold of me, and still my whole life is in me.”
10 فوقفت عليه وقتلته لاني علمت انه لا يعيش بعد سقوطه واخذت الاكليل الذي على راسه والسوار الذي على ذراعه واتيت بهما الى سيدي ههنا.	10 And standing over him, I killed him. For I knew that he was not able to live after the fall. And I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet from his arm, and I have brought them here to you, my lord.”
11 فامسك داود ثيابه ومزقها وكذا جميع الرجال الذين معه.	11 Then David, taking hold of his garments, tore them, with all the men who were with him.
12 وندبوا وبكوا وصاموا الى المساء على شاول وعلى يوناثان ابنه وعلى شعب الرب وعلى بيت اسرائيل لانهم سقطوا بالسيف.	12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening, over Saul and over his son Jonathan, and over the people of the Lord and over the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
13 ثم قال داود للغلام الذي اخبره من اين انت. فقال انا ابن رجل غريب عماليقي.	13 And David said to the youth who had reported it to him, “Where are you from?” And he responded, “I am the son of a man who is a new arrival from the Amalekites.”
14 فقال له داود كيف لم تخف ان تمد يدك لتهلك مسيح الرب.	14 And David said to him, “Why were you not afraid to put forth your hand, so that you would kill the Christ of the Lord?”
15 ثم دعا داود واحدا من الغلمان وقال تقدم. اوقع به. فضربه فمات.	15 And calling one of his servants, David said, “Draw near and rush against him” And he struck him, and he died.
16 فقال له داود دمك على راسك لان فمك شهد عليك قائلا انا قتلت مسيح الرب	16 And David said to him: “Your blood is upon your own head. For your own mouth has spoken against you, saying: ‘I have killed the Christ of the Lord.’ ”
17 ورثا داود بهذه المرثاة شاول ويوناثان ابنه	17 Then David mourned a lamentation over Saul and over his son Jonathan, in this way.
18 وقال ان يتعلم بنو يهوذا نشيد القوس هوذا ذلك مكتوب في سفر ياشر	18 (And he instructed that they should teach the sons of Judah the bow, just as it is written in the Book of the Just.) And he said: “Consider, O Israel, on behalf of those who are dead, wounded upon your heights:
19 الظبي يا اسرائيل مقتول على شوامخك. كيف سقط الجبابرة.	19 The illustrious of Israel have been killed upon your mountains. How could the valiant have fallen?
20 لا تخبروا في جتّ. لا تبشروا في اسواق اشقلون لئلا تفرح بنات الفلسطينيين لئلا تشمت بنات الغلف.	20 Do not choose to announce it in Gath, and do not announce it in the crossroads of Ashkelon. Otherwise, the daughters of the Philistines may rejoice; otherwise, the daughters of the uncircumcised may exult.
21 يا جبال جلبوع لا يكن طل ولا مطر عليكنّ ولا حقول تقدمات لانه هناك طرح مجنّ الجبابرة مجنّ شاول بلا مسح بالدهن.	21 O mountains of Gilboa, let neither dew, nor rain fall over you, and may these not be the fields of the first-fruits. For in that place, the shield of the valiant was cast away, the shield of Saul, as if he had not been anointed with oil.
22 من دم القتلى من شحم الجبابرة لم ترجع قوس يوناثان الى الوراء وسيف شاول لم يرجع خائبا.	22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the strong, the arrow of Jonathan never turned back, and the sword of Saul did not return empty.
23 شاول ويوناثان المحبوبان والحلوان في حياتهما لم يفترقا في موتهما. اخف من النسور واشدّ من الأسود.	23 Saul and Jonathan, worthy to be loved, and stately in their life: even in death they were not divided. They were swifter than eagles, stronger than lions.
24 يا بنات اسرائيل ابكين شاول الذي ألبسكنّ قرمزا بالتنعم وجعل حليّ الذهب على ملابسكنّ.	24 O daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you with scarlet finery, who offered ornaments of gold for your adornment.
25 كيف سقط الجبابرة في وسط الحرب. يوناثان على شوامخك مقتول.	25 How could the valiant have fallen in battle? How could Jonathan have been slain on the heights?
26 قد تضايقت عليك يا اخي يوناثان. كنت حلوا لي جدا. محبتك لي اعجب من محبة النساء.	26 I grieve over you, my brother Jonathan: exceedingly stately, and worthy to be loved above the love of women. As a mother loves her only son, so also did I love you.
27 كيف سقط الجبابرة وبادت آلات الحرب	27 How could the robust have fallen, and the weapons of war have perished?”
