Nagpakamatay si Saul

(1 Sam. 31:1-13)

10 Unya, nakiggira ang mga Filistihanon sa mga Israelinhon sa Bukid sa Gilboa. Daghan ang namatay sa mga Israelinhon, ug ang uban kanila nangikyas. Gigukod pag-ayo sa mga Filistihanon si Saul ug ang iyang mga anak nga lalaki, ug gipatay nila ang iyang mga anak nga si Jonatan, Abinadab, ug Malkishua. Labihan gayod ang panagsangka tali kang Saul ug sa mga Filistihanon. Nakit-an si Saul sa mga tigpamana, ug gipana nila siya ug grabe ang iyang samad. Miingon si Saul sa tigdala sa iyang armas, “Ibta ang imong espada ug patya ako, kay kon dili, sila nga mga wala nakaila sa Dios[a] mao ang mopatay kanako, ug bugalbugalan nila ako.” Apan nahadlok mopatay kaniya ang tigdala sa iyang armas, busa gikuha ni Saul ang iyang kaugalingong espada, ug giunay ang iyang kaugalingon.

Sa dihang nakita sa tigdala sa armas nga patay na si Saul giunay usab niya ang iyang kaugalingon sa iyang kaugalingong espada, ug namatay usab siya. Busa namatay si Saul, ang iyang tulo ka anak nga lalaki, ug ang tibuok niyang panimalay.

Niadtong higayona may mga Israelinhon nga atua sa kapatagan sa Jezreel. Sa dihang nakita nila nga nangikyas ang mga sundalo sa Israel ug namatay si Saul ug ang iyang mga anak, gibiyaan nila ang ilang mga lungsod ug nangikyas usab sila. Busa gisulod sa mga Filistihanon kini nga mga lungsod ug gipuy-an.

Pagkasunod nga adlaw, human sa gira, miadto ang mga Filistihanon sa Bukid sa Gilboa aron sa pagkuha sa mga butang sa mga nangamatay. Nakita nila didto ang patayng lawas ni Saul ug sa mga anak niini. Gikuha nila ang mga armas ug ang panagang nga gisul-ob ni Saul ug gipunggotan nila kini ug ulo. Unya nagpadala sila ug mga mensahero sa tibuok nga kayutaan sa Filistia sa pagbalita didto sa ilang mga dios-dios ug sa ilang mga katagilungsod nga patay na si Saul. 10 Gibutang nila ang armas ni Saul sa templo sa ilang mga dios, ug gibitay ang ulo niini sa templo sa ilang dios nga si Dagon.

11 Nabalitaan sa mga taga-Jabes Gilead ang tanan nga gihimo sa mga Filistihanon kang Saul. 12 Busa milakaw ang tanan nilang maisog nga mga sundalo ug gikuha ang patayng lawas ni Saul ug sa mga anak niini, ug gidala nila kini sa Jabes. Gilubong nila ang mga patayng lawas ilalom sa dakong kahoy sa Jabes, ug nagpuasa sila sulod sa pito ka adlaw.

13 Namatay si Saul kay wala siya nagmatinumanon sa Ginoo. Wala niya tumana ang sugo sa Ginoo, ug midangop siya sa mga espiritista 14 imbis nga mangayo ug tambag gikan sa Ginoo. Busa gipatay siya sa Ginoo ug gihatag ang gingharian kang David nga anak ni Jesse.

Saul Takes His Life(A)

10 Now the Philistines fought against Israel; the Israelites fled before them, and many fell dead on Mount Gilboa. The Philistines were in hot pursuit of Saul and his sons, and they killed his sons Jonathan, Abinadab and Malki-Shua. The fighting grew fierce around Saul, and when the archers overtook him, they wounded him.

Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and run me through, or these uncircumcised fellows will come and abuse me.”

But his armor-bearer was terrified and would not do it; so Saul took his own sword and fell on it. When the armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he too fell on his sword and died. So Saul and his three sons died, and all his house died together.

When all the Israelites in the valley saw that the army had fled and that Saul and his sons had died, they abandoned their towns and fled. And the Philistines came and occupied them.

The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the dead, they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa. They stripped him and took his head and his armor, and sent messengers throughout the land of the Philistines to proclaim the news among their idols and their people. 10 They put his armor in the temple of their gods and hung up his head in the temple of Dagon.(B)

11 When all the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead(C) heard what the Philistines had done to Saul, 12 all their valiant men went and took the bodies of Saul and his sons and brought them to Jabesh. Then they buried their bones under the great tree in Jabesh, and they fasted seven days.

13 Saul died(D) because he was unfaithful(E) to the Lord; he did not keep(F) the word of the Lord and even consulted a medium(G) for guidance, 14 and did not inquire of the Lord. So the Lord put him to death and turned(H) the kingdom(I) over to David son of Jesse.

Tragic End of Saul and His Sons(A)

10 Now (B)the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell slain on Mount Gilboa. Then the Philistines followed hard after Saul and his sons. And the Philistines killed Jonathan, [a]Abinadab, and Malchishua, Saul’s sons. The battle became fierce against Saul. The archers hit him, and he was wounded by the archers. Then Saul said to his armorbearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised men come and abuse me.” But his armorbearer would not, for he was greatly afraid. Therefore Saul took a sword and fell on it. And when his armorbearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his sword and died. So Saul and his three sons died, and all his house died together. And when all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that they had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook their cities and fled; then the Philistines came and dwelt in them.

So it happened the next day, when the Philistines came to [b]strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa. And they stripped him and took his head and his armor, and sent word throughout the land of the Philistines to proclaim the news in the temple of their idols and among the people. 10 (C)Then they put his armor in the [c]temple of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon.

11 And when all Jabesh Gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul, 12 all the (D)valiant men arose and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons; and they brought them to (E)Jabesh, and buried their bones under the tamarisk tree at Jabesh, and fasted seven days.

13 So Saul died for his unfaithfulness which he had [d]committed against the Lord, (F)because he did not keep the word of the Lord, and also because (G)he consulted a medium for guidance. 14 But he did not inquire of the Lord; therefore He killed him, and (H)turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.

The Death of Saul and His Sons

10 (A)Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled before the Philistines and fell slain on Mount Gilboa. And the Philistines overtook Saul and his sons, and the Philistines struck down Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul. The battle pressed hard against Saul, and the archers found him, and he was wounded by the archers. Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and mistreat me.” But his armor-bearer would not, for he feared greatly. Therefore Saul took his own sword and fell upon it. And when his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died. Thus Saul died; he and his three sons and all his house died together. And when all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that the army[a] had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and fled, and the Philistines came and lived in them.

The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa. And they stripped him and took his head and his armor, and sent messengers throughout the land of the Philistines to carry the good news to their idols and to the people. 10 And they put his armor in the temple of their gods and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon. 11 But when all Jabesh-gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul, 12 all the valiant men arose and took away the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh. And they buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh and fasted seven days.

13 So Saul died (B)for his breach of faith. He broke faith with the Lord in that he did not keep the command of the Lord, and also (C)consulted a medium, seeking guidance. 14 He (D)did not seek guidance from the Lord. Therefore the Lord put him to death and (E)turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.
