ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΩΝ Α´ - 1 Samuele - Kings I 4

GREEK BIBLE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Και εγεινε λογος του Σαμουηλ προς παντα τον Ισραηλ. Και εξηλθεν ο Ισραηλ εναντιον των Φιλισταιων εις μαχην, και εστρατοπεδευσαν πλησιον του Εβεν-εζερ? οι δε Φιλισταιοι εστρατοπεδευσαν εν Αφεκ.	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,
2 Και παρεταχθησαν οι Φιλισταιοι εναντιον του Ισραηλ? και οτε εξηπλωθη η μαχη, εκτυπηθη ο Ισραηλ εμπροσθεν των Φιλισταιων? και εφονευθησαν εν τω πεδιω κατα την συμπλοκην εως τεσσαρες χιλιαδες ανδρων.	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.
3 Οτε δε ηλθεν ο λαος εις το στρατοπεδον, ειπον οι πρεσβυτεροι του Ισραηλ, Δια τι ο Κυριος επαταξεν ημας σημερον εμπροσθεν των Φιλισταιων; ας λαβωμεν προς εαυτους απο Σηλω την κιβωτον της διαθηκης του Κυριου, και ελθουσα εν μεσω ημων θελει σωσει ημας εκ της χειρος των εχθρων ημων.	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.
4 Και απεστειλεν ο λαος εις Σηλω, και εσηκωσαν εκειθεν την κιβωτον της διαθηκης του Κυριου των δυναμεων, του καθημενου επι των χερουβειμ? και αμφοτεροι οι υιοι του Ηλει, Οφνει και Φινεες, ησαν εκει μετα της κιβωτου της διαθηκης του Θεου.	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.
5 Και οτε ηλθεν η κιβωτος της διαθηκης του Κυριου εις το στρατοπεδον, πας ο Ισραηλ ηλαλαξε μετα φωνης μεγαλης, ωστε αντηχησεν η γη.	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.
6 Και ακουσαντες οι Φιλισταιοι την φωνην του αλαλαγμου, ειπον, Τι σημαινει η φωνη του μεγαλου τουτου αλαλαγμου εν τω στρατοπεδω των Εβραιων; Και εμαθον οτι η κιβωτος του Κυριου ηλθεν εις το στρατοπεδον.	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.
7 Και εφοβηθησαν οι Φιλισταιοι, λεγοντες, Ο Θεος ηλθεν εις το στρατοπεδον. Και ειπον, Ουαι εις ημας. Διοτι δεν εσταθη τοιουτον πραγμα χθες και προχθες?	7 And the Philistines were afraid, saying: God is come into the camp. And sighing, they said:
8 ουαι εις ημας. Τις θελει σωσει ημας εκ της χειρος των θεων τουτων των ισχυρων; ουτοι ειναι οι θεοι, οι παταξαντες τους Αιγυπτιους εν παση πληγη εν τη ερημω?	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.
9 ενδυναμωθητε, Φιλισταιοι, και σταθητε ως ανδρες, δια να μη γεινητε δουλοι εις τους Εβραιους, καθως αυτοι εσταθησαν δουλοι εις εσας? σταθητε ως ανδρες, και πολεμησατε αυτους.	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.
10 Τοτε οι Φιλισταιοι επολεμησαν? και εκτυπηθη ο Ισραηλ, και εφυγεν εκαστος εις την σκηνην αυτου? και εγεινε σφαγη μεγαλη σφοδρα? και επεσον εκ του Ισραηλ τριακοντα χιλιαδες πεζοι.	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.
11 Και η κιβωτος του Θεου επιασθη? και αμφοτεροι οι υιοι του Ηλει, Οφνει και Φινεες, εθανατωθησαν.	11 And the ark of God was taken: and the two sons of Heli, Ophni and Phinees, were slain.
12 Και εδραμεν εκ της μαχης ανθρωπος τις εκ του Βενιαμιν, και ηλθεν εις Σηλω την αυτην ημεραν, εχων τα ιματια αυτου διεσχισμενα και χωμα επι την κεφαλην αυτου.	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.
13 Και οτε ηλθεν, ιδου, ο Ηλει εκαθητο επι της καθεδρας, κατα το πλαγιον της οδου, σκοπευων? διοτι η καρδια αυτου ετρεμε περι της κιβωτου του Θεου. Και οτε ο ανθρωπος ελθων εις την πολιν ανηγγειλε ταυτα, ανεβοησε πασα η πολις.	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.
14 Και ακουσας ο Ηλει την φωνην της βοης, ειπε, Τι σημαινει η φωνη της βοης ταυτης; Και ο ανθρωπος ηλθε σπευδων και ανηγγειλε προς τον Ηλει.	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.
15 Ητο δε ο Ηλει ενενηκοντα οκτω ετων? και οι οφθαλμοι αυτου ησαν ημαυρωμενοι, ωστε δεν ηδυνατο να βλεπη.	15 Now Heli was ninety and eight years old, and his eyes were dim, and he could not see.
16 Και ειπεν ο ανθρωπος προς τον Ηλει, Εγω ειμαι ο ελθων εκ της μαχης, και εφυγον εγω εκ της μαχης σημερον. Και ειπε, Τι εγεινε, τεκνον μου;	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?
17 Και απεκριθη ο μηνυτης και ειπεν, Εφυγεν ο Ισραηλ εμπροσθεν των Φιλισταιων, και ετι μεγαλη σφαγη εγεινεν εις τον λαον? και προσετι αμφοτεροι οι υιοι σου, Οφνει και Φινεες, απεθανον? και η κιβωτος του Θεου επιασθη.	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.
18 Και καθως ανεφερε περι της κιβωτου του Θεου, ο Ηλει επεσεν εκ της καθεδρας εις τα οπισθια προς το πλαγιον της πυλης, και συνετριβη ο τραχηλος αυτου, και απεθανε? διοτι ητο γερων ο ανθρωπος και βαρυς. Εκρινε δε αυτος τον Ισραηλ τεσσαρακοντα ετη.	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.
19 Και η νυμφη αυτου, η γυνη του Φινεες, ουσα εγκυος, ετοιμη να γεννηση, ως ηκουσε την αγγελιαν, οτι η κιβωτος του Θεου επιασθη και οτι ο πενθερος αυτης και ο ανηρ αυτης απεθανον, εκυρτωθη και εγεννησε? διοτι ηλθον εις αυτην οι πονοι.	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.
20 Και καθ' ον καιρον απεθνησκεν, αι γυναικες αι παρισταμεναι ειπον προς αυτην, Μη φοβου? διοτι εγεννησας υιον. Εκεινη ομως δεν απεκριθη ουδε εβαλεν αυτο εις την καρδιαν 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.
21 Και εκαλεσε το παιδιον Ιχαβωδ, λεγουσα, Η δοξα εφυγεν εκ του Ισραηλ? διοτι η κιβωτος του Θεου επιασθη, και διοτι ο πενθερος αυτης και ο ανηρ αυτης απεθανον.	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:
22 Και ειπεν, Η δοξα εφυγεν εκ του Ισραηλ? διοτι επιασθη η κιβωτος του Θεου.	22 And she said: The glory is departed from Israel, because the ark of God was taken.
