ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΩΝ Β´ - 2 Samuele - Kings II 1

GREEK BIBLE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Μετα δε τον θανατον του Σαουλ, αφου επεστρεψεν ο Δαβιδ απο της σφαγης των Αμαληκιτων, εκαθησεν ο Δαβιδ εν Σικλαγ δυο ημερας?	1 Now it came to pass, after Saul was dead, that David returned from the slaughter of the Amalecites, and abode two days in Siceleg.
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.	2 And on the third day, there appeared a man who came out of Saul's camp, with his garments rent, and dust strewed on his head: and when he came to David, he fell upon his face, and adored.
3 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Δαβιδ, Ποθεν ερχεσαι; Ο δε ειπε προς αυτον, Εγω εκ του στρατοπεδου του Ισραηλ διεσωθην.	3 And David said to him: From whence comest thou? And he said to him: I am fled out of the camp of Israel.
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.	4 And David said unto him: What is the matter that is come to pass? tell me. He said: The people are fled from the battle, and many of the people are fallen and dead: moreover Saul and Jonathan his son are slain.
5 Και ειπεν ο Δαβιδ προς τον νεον τον απαγγελλοντα προς αυτον, Πως εξευρεις οτι απεθανεν ο Σαουλ, και Ιωναθαν ο υιος αυτου;	5 And David said to the young man that told him: How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son, are dead?
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.	6 And the young man that told him, said: I came by chance upon mount Gelboe, and Saul leaned upon his spear: and the chariots and horsemen drew nigh unto him,
7 και οτε εβλεψεν εις τα οπισω αυτου, με ειδε και με εκαλεσε? και απεκριθην, Ιδου, εγω.	7 And looking behind him, and seeing me, he called me. And I answered, Here am I.
8 Και ειπε προς εμε, Ποιος εισαι; Και απεκριθην προς αυτον, Ειμαι Αμαληκιτης.	8 And he said to me: Who art thou? And I said to him: I am an Amalecite.
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.	9 And he said to me: Stand over me, and kill me: for anguish is come upon me, and as yet my whole life is in me.
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.	10 So standing over him, I killed him: for I knew that he could not live after the fall: and I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm and have brought them hither to thee, my lord.
11 Τοτε πιασας ο Δαβιδ τα ιματια αυτου, διεσχισεν αυτα? και παντες ομοιως οι ανδρες οι μετ' αυτου.	11 Then David took hold of his garments and rent them, and likewise all the men that were with him.
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.	12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening 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.
13 Ειπε δε ο Δαβιδ προς τον νεον, τον απαγγελλοντα προς αυτον, Ποθεν εισαι; Και απεκριθη, Ειμαι υιος παροικου τινος Αμαληκιτου.	13 And David said to the young man that told him: Whence art thou? He answered: I am the son of a stranger of Amalee.
14 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Δαβιδ, Πως δεν εφοβηθης να επιβαλης την χειρα σου δια να θανατωσης τον κεχρισμενον του Κυριου;	14 David said to him: Why didst thou not fear to put out thy hand to kill the Lord's anointed?
15 Και εκαλεσεν ο Δαβιδ ενα εκ των νεων και ειπε, Πλησιασον, πεσον επ' αυτον. Και επαταξεν αυτον, και απεθανε.	15 And David calling one of his servants, said: Go near and fall upon him. And he struck him so that he died.
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.	16 And David said to him: Thy blood be upon thy own head: for thy own mouth hath spoken against thee, saying: I have slain the Lord's anointed.
17 Και εθρηνησεν ο Δαβιδ τον θρηνον τουτον επι τον Σαουλ και επι Ιωναθαν τον υιον αυτου?	17 And David made this kind of lamentation over Saul, and over Jonathan his son.
18 και παρηγγειλε να διδαξωσι τους υιους Ιουδα τουτο το ασμα του τοξου? ιδου, ειναι γεγραμμενον εν τω βιβλιω του Ιασηρ.	18 (Also he commanded that they should teach the children of Juda the use of the bow, as it is written in the book of the just.) And he said: Consider, O Israel, for them that are dead, wounded on thy high places.
19 Ω δοξα του Ισραηλ, επι τους υψηλους τοπους σου κατηκοντισμενη. Πως επεσον οι δυνατοι.	19 The illustrious of Israel are slain upon thy mountains: how are the valiant fallen?
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?	20 Tell it not in Geth, publish it not in the streets of Ascalon: lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph,
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.	21 Ye mountains of Gelboe, let neither dew, nor rain come upon you, neither be they fields of firstfruits: for there was cast away the shield of the valiant, the shield of Saul as though he had not been anointed with oil.
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.	22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the valiant, the arrow of Jonathan never turned back, and the sword of Saul did not return empty.
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.	23 Saul and Jonathan, lovely, and comely in their life, even in death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, stronger than lions.
24 Θυγατερες Ισραηλ, κλαυσατε επι τον Σαουλ τον ενδυοντα υμας κοκκινα μετα καλλωπισμων, τον επιβαλλοντα στολισμους χρυσους επι τα ενδυματα υμων.	24 Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you with scarlet in delights, who gave ornaments of gold for your attire.
25 Πως επεσον οι δυνατοι εν μεσω της μαχης? Ιωναθαν, επι τους υψηλους τοπους σου τετραυματισμενε.	25 How are the valiant fallen in battle? Jonathan slain in the high places?
26 Περιλυπος ειμαι δια σε, αδελφε μου Ιωναθαν? προσφιλεστατος εσταθης εις εμε? η προς εμε αγαπη σου ητο εξαισιος. Υπερεβαινε την αγαπην των γυναικων.	26 I grieve for thee, my brother Jonathan: exceeding beautiful, and amiable to me above the love of women. As the mother loveth her only son, so did I love thee.
27 Πως επεσον οι δυνατοι, και απωλεσθησαν τα οπλα του πολεμου.	27 How are the valiant fallen, and the weapons of war perished?
