1 Chronicles 10

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	EL LIBRO DEL PUEBLO DE DIOS
1 Now the Philistines were fighting against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from the Philistines, and they fell down wounded on mount Gilboa.	1 Los filisteos entablaron combate con Israel. Los hombres de Israel huyeron ante ellos y cayeron heridos de muerte en el monte Gelboé.
2 And when the Philistines had draw near, pursuing Saul and his sons, they struck down Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.	2 Los filisteos persiguieron de cerca a Saúl y a sus hijos y mataron a Jonatán, Abinadab y Malquisúa, los hijos de Saúl.
3 And the battle grew heavy against Saul. And the archers found him, and they wounded him with arrows.	3 El peso del combate recayó entonces sobre Saúl. Los arqueros lo descubrieron, y fue herido por ellos.
4 And Saul said to his armor bearer: “Unsheathe your sword and kill me. Otherwise, these uncircumcised men may arrive and mock me.” But his armor bearer was not willing, having been struck with fear. And so, Saul took hold of his sword, and he fell upon it.	4 Saúl dijo a su escudero: «Saca tu espada y traspásame, no sea que vengan esos incircuncisos, para vergüenza mía». Pero su escudero no quiso hacerlo, porque tenía mucho miedo. Entonces Saúl tomó la espada y se arrojó sobre ella.
5 And when his armor bearer had seen this, specifically, that Saul was dead, he now fell on his sword also, and he died.	5 Al ver que Saúl estaba muerto, también su escudero se echó sobre su espada y murió.
6 Therefore, Saul died, and his three sons passed away, and his entire house fell, together.	6 Así murieron Saúl y sus tres hijos; toda su casa murió al mismo tiempo.
7 And when the men of Israel who were living in the plains had seen this, they fled. And since Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and were dispersed, here and there. And the Philistines arrived and lived among them.	7 Todos los hombres de Israel que estaban en el valle, al ver que la gente huía y que Saúl y sus hijos habían muerto, abandonaron sus ciudades y se dieron a la fuga. Luego vinieron los filisteos y se establecieron allí.
8 Then, on the next day, when the Philistines were taking away the spoils of the slain, they found Saul and his sons, lying on mount Gilboa.	8 Al día siguiente, cuando llegaron los filisteos para despojar a las víctimas, encontraron a Saúl y a sus hijos tendidos sobre el monte Gelboé.
9 And when they had despoiled him, and had cut off his head, and had stripped his armor, they sent these things into their land, so that they would be carried around and displayed in the temples of the idols and to the people.	9 Entonces despojaron a Saúl y se llevaron su cabeza y sus armas. Luego enviaron mensajeros por todo el país de los filisteos, para anunciar la buena noticia a sus ídolos y al pueblo.
10 But his armor they consecrated in the shrine of their god, and his head they affixed in the temple of Dagon.	10 Depositaron las armas de Saúl en el templo de dios y colgaron su cabeza en el templo de Dagón.
11 When the men of Jabesh Gilead had heard this, specifically, all that the Philistines had done concerning Saul,	11 Cuando todo Iabés de Galaad oyó lo que los filisteos habían hecho a Saúl,
12 each one of the valiant men rose up, and they took the bodies of Saul and of his sons. And they brought them to Jabesh. And they buried their bones under the oak that was in Jabesh. And they fasted for seven days.	12 todos los hombres valientes emprendieron la marcha, retiraron el cadáver de Saúl y los cadáveres de sus hijos, y se los llevaron a Iabés. Allí sepultaron sus huesos bajo el Terebinto de Iabés y ayunaron siete días.
13 Thus did Saul die for his iniquities, because he betrayed the commandment of the Lord which he had instructed, and did not keep it. And moreover, he even consulted a woman diviner;	13 Así murió Saúl, por haberse rebelado contra el Señor, no observando su palabra, y por haber evocado y consultado al espíritu de un muerto,
14 for he did not trust in the Lord. Because of this, he caused his death, and he transferred his kingdom to David, the son of Jesse.	14 en lugar de consultar al Señor. Por eso el Señor lo hizo morir y transfirió la realeza a David, hijo de Jesé.
