BIBBIA VOLGARE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 E i Filistei combatterono contro ad Israel, e fuggirono gli uomini d' Israel da quelli di Palestina, e morinno nel monte di Gelboe.	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.
2 E appressandosi gli Filistei che perseguitavano Saul e i suoi figliuoli, uccisono Ionata e Abinadab e Melchisua, figliuoli di Saul.	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.
3 E fu aggravata la battaglia contra a Saul, e trovaronlo saettatori, e ferinnolo.	3 And the battle grew heavy against Saul. And the archers found him, and they wounded him with arrows.
4 E disse Saul al suo scudiere: trài fuori il tuo coltello e uccidimi, acciò che non vengano questi incirconcisi, e faccino istrazio di me. E non volle fare il suo scudiere, isbigottito per paura; e tolse Saul la spada, e gittossi sopra essa.	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.
5 E veggendo il suo scudiere ch' era morto Saul, an ch' egli si gittò in su il suo coltello, e fu morto.	5 And when his armor bearer had seen this, specifically, that Saul was dead, he now fell on his sword also, and he died.
6 Onde che morì Saul e tre suoi figliuoli, e ivi cadde tutta la sua casa.	6 Therefore, Saul died, and his three sons passed away, and his entire house fell, together.
7 La quale cosa veggendo gli uomini d' Israel, i quali abitavano ne' campestri, fuggirono; e morto Saul e i suoi figliuoli, lasciarono le loro cittadi, e tutti si sparsero là e qua; e vennero i Filistei, e abitarono in quelle.	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.
8 E l'altro dì i Filistei, spogliando i morti, trovarono Saul e i suoi figliuoli giacere nel monte Gelboe.	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.
9 E avendolo spogliato, e tagliatoli il capo, e spogliato dell' arme, mandaronlo nella terra loro, acciò che fosse portato dintorno, e mostrato a' templi degl' idoli, e a' popoli.	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.
10 E l'arme sue conservarono nel tempio del loro iddio, e il capo puosero nel tempio di Dagon.	10 But his armor they consecrated in the shrine of their god, and his head they affixed in the temple of Dagon.
11 E avendo udito ciò gli uomini di Iabes di Galaad, cioè tutto quello che i Filistei aveano fatto a Saul,	11 When the men of Jabesh Gilead had heard this, specifically, all that the Philistines had done concerning Saul,
12 levaronsi tutti gli uomini fortissimi, e tolsero il corpo di Saul, e il corpo di ciascuno dei suoi figliuoli, e portaronli in Iabes, e seppellirono l'ossa loro sotto la quercia la quale era in Iabes, e digiunarono VII dì.	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.
13 E morì Saul per le sue iniquitadi, però che prevaricò il comandamento di Dio, il quale . avea domandato consiglio alla pitonessa,	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;
14 e non sperò in Dio; però l' uccise, e translatoe il suo regno a David figliuolo d'Isai.	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.
