1
And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered their armies together for warfare, to fight with Israel. And Achish said unto David, Know thou assuredly, that thou shalt go out with me to battle, thou and thy men.
Καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις, καὶ συναθροίζονται ἀλλόφυλοι ἐν ταῖς παρεμβολαῖς αὐτῶν ἐξελθεῖν πολεμεῖν μετὰ Ἰσραήλ· καὶ εἶπεν Ἀγχοῦς πρὸς Δαυὶδ, γινώσκων γνώσῃ, ὅτι μετʼ ἐμοῦ ἐξελεύσῃ εἰς πόλεμον σὺ, καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες σου.
2
And David said to Achish, Surely thou shalt know what thy servant can do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee keeper of mine head for ever.
Καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς Ἀγχοῦς, οὕτω νῦν γνώσῃ ἃ ποιήσει ὁ δοῦλός σου· καὶ εἶπεν Ἀγχοῦς πρὸς Δαυὶδ, οὕτως ἀρχισωματοφύλακα θήσομαί σε πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας
3
Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. And Saul had put away those that had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.
Καὶ Σαμουὴλ ἀπέθανε, καὶ ἐκόψαντο αὐτὸν πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ θάπτουσιν αὐτὸν ἐν Ἀρμαθαὶμ ἐν πόλει αὐτοῦ. καὶ Σαοὺλ περιεῖλε τοὺς ἐγγαστριμύθους καὶ τοὺς γνώστας ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς.
4
And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and pitched in Shunem: and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they pitched in Gilboa.
Καὶ συναθροίζονται οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι, καὶ ἔρχονται καὶ παρεμβάλλουσιν εἰς Σωνάμ· καὶ συναθροίζει Σαοὺλ πάντα ἄνδρα Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ παρεμβάλλουσιν εἰς Γελβουέ.
5
And when Saul saw the host of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart greatly trembled.
Καὶ εἶδε Σαοὺλ τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν ἀλλοφύλων, καὶ ἐφοβήθη, καὶ ἐξέστη ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ σφόδρα.
6
And when Saul enquired of the Lord, the Lord answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.
Καὶ ἐπηρώτησε Σαοὺλ διὰ Κυρίου, καὶ οὐκ ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ Κύριος ἐν τοῖς ἐνυπνίοις καὶ ἐν τοῖς δήλοις καὶ ἐν τοῖς προφήταις.
7
Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and enquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at En–dor.
Καὶ εἶπε Σαοὺλ τοῖς παισὶν αὐτοῦ, ζητήσατέ μοι γυναῖκα ἐγγαστρίμυθον, καὶ πορεύσομαι πρὸς αὐτὴν, καὶ ζητήσω ἐν αὐτῇ· καὶ εἶπαν οἱ παἷδες αὐτοῦ πρὸς αὐτὸν ἰδοὺ γυνὴ ἐγγαστρίμυθος ἐν Ἀενδώρ.
8
And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he said, I pray thee, divine unto me by the familiar spirit, and bring me him up, whom I shall name unto thee.
Καὶ συνεκαλύψατο Σαοὺλ, καὶ περιεβάλετο ἱμάτια ἕτερα, καὶ πορεύεται αὐτὸς καὶ δύο ἄνδρες μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔρχονται πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα νυκτὸς, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ, μάντευσαι δή μοι ἐν τῷ ἐγγαστριμύθῳ, καὶ ἀνάγαγέ μοι ὃν ἐὰν εἴπω σοι.
9
And the woman said unto him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that have familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land: wherefore then layest thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die?
Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἡ γυνὴ, ἰδοὺ δὴ σὺ οἶδας ὅσα ἐποίησε Σαοὺλ, ὡς ἐξωλόθρευσε τοὺς ἐγγαστριμύθους καὶ τοὺς γνώστας ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἱνατί σὺ παγιδεύεις τὴν ψυχήν μοι θανατῶσαι αὐτήν;
10
And Saul sware to her by the Lord, saying, As the Lord liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.
Καὶ ὤμοσεν αὐτῇ Σαοὺλ, λέγων, ζῇ Κύριος, εἰ ἀπαντήσεταί σοι ἀδικία ἐν τῷ λόγῳ τούτῳ.
11
Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
Καὶ εἶπεν ἡ γυνὴ, τίνα ἀναγάγω σοι; καὶ εἶπε, τὸν Σαμουὴλ ἀνάγαγέ μοι.
12
And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul.
Καὶ εἶδεν ἡ γυνὴ τὸν Σαμουὴλ, καὶ ἀνεβόησε φωνῇ μεγάλῃ· καὶ εἶπεν ἡ γυνὴ πρὸς Σαοὺλ, ἱνατί παρελογίσω με; καὶ σὺ εἶ Σαούλ.
13
And the king said unto her, Be not afraid: for what sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, I saw gods ascending out of the earth.
Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ βασιλεὺς, μὴ φοβοῦ, εἶπον τίνα ἑώρακας· καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἡ γυνὴ, θεοὺς ἑώρακα ἀναβαίνοντας ἐκ τῆς γῆς.
14
And he said unto her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man cometh up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground, and bowed himself.
Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ, τί ἔγνως; καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, ἄνδρα ὄρθιον ἀναβαίνοντα ἐκ τῆς γῆς, καὶ οὗτος διπλοΐδα ἀναβεβλημένος· καὶ ἔγνω Σαοὺλ, ὅτι οὗτος Σαμουὴλ, καὶ ἔκυψεν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καὶ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ.
15
And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known unto me what I shall do.
Καὶ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ, ἱνατί παρηνώχλησάς μοι ἀναβῆναί με; καὶ εἶπε Σαοὺλ, θλίβομαι σφόδρα, καὶ οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι πολεμοῦσιν ἐν ἐμοὶ, καὶ ὁ Θεὸς ἀφέστηκεν ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἐπακήκοέ μοι ἔτι καὶ ἐν χειρὶ τῶν προφητῶν καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἐνυπνίοις· καὶ νῦν κέκληκά σε γνωρίσαι μοι τί ποιήσω.
16
Then said Samuel, Wherefore then dost thou ask of me, seeing the Lord is departed from thee, and is become thine enemy?
Καὶ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ, ἱνατί ἐπερωτᾷς με, καὶ Κύριος ἀφέστηκεν ἀπὸ σοῦ, καὶ γέγονε μετὰ τοῦ πλησίον σου;
17
And the Lord hath done to him, as he spake by me: for the Lord hath rent the kingdom out of thine hand, and given it to thy neighbour, even to David:
Καὶ πεποίηκε Κύριος σοι, καθὼς ἐλάλησε Κύριος ἐν χειρί μου, καὶ διαῤῥήξει Κύριος τὴν βασιλείαν σου ἐκ χειρός σου, καὶ δώσει αὐτὴν τῷ πλησίον σου τῷ Δαυὶδ,
18
Because thou obeyedst not the voice of the Lord, nor executedst his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore hath the Lord done this thing unto thee this day.
διότι οὐκ ἤκουσας φωνῆς Κυρίου, καὶ οὐκ ἐποίησας θυμὸν ὀργῆς αὐτοῦ ἐν Ἀμαλὴκ, διὰ τοῦτο τὸ ῥῆμα ἐποίησε Κύριός σοι ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ.
19
Moreover the Lord will also deliver Israel with thee into the hand of the Philistines: and to morrow shalt thou and thy sons be with me: the Lord also shall deliver the host of Israel into the hand of the Philistines.
Καὶ παραδώσει Κύριος τὸν Ἰσραὴλ μετὰ σοῦ εἰς χεῖρας ἀλλοφύλων, καὶ αὔριον σὺ καὶ οἱ υἱοί σου μετὰ σοῦ πεσοῦνται, καὶ τὴν παρεμβολὴν Ἰσραὴλ δώσει Κύριος εἰς χεῖρας ἀλλοφύλων.
20
Then Saul fell straightway all along on the earth, and was sore afraid, because of the words of Samuel: and there was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.
Καὶ ἔσπευσε Σαοὺλ καὶ ἔπεσεν ἑστηκὼς ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἐφοβήθη σφόδρα ἀπὸ τῶν λόγων Σαμουὴλ, καὶ ἐν αὐτῷ οὐκ ἦν ἰσχὺς ἔτι, οὐ γὰρ ἔφαγεν ἄρτον ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν καὶ ὅλην τὴν νύκτα ἐκείνην.
21
And the woman came unto Saul, and saw that he was sore troubled, and said unto him, Behold, thine handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened unto thy words which thou spakest unto me.
Καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ἡ γυνὴ πρὸς Σαοὺλ, καὶ εἶδεν ὅτι ἔσπευσε σφόδρα, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν, ἰδοὺ δὴ ἤκουσεν ἡ δούλη σου τῆς φωνῆς σου, καὶ ἐθέμην τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐν τῇ χειρί μου, καὶ ἤκουσα τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἐλάλησάς μοι.
22
Now therefore, I pray thee, hearken thou also unto the voice of thine handmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee; and eat, that thou mayest have strength, when thou goest on thy way.
Καὶ νῦν ἄκουσον δὴ φωνῆς τῆς δούλης σου, καὶ παραθήσω ἐνώπιόν σου ψωμὸν ἄρτου, καὶ φάγε, καὶ ἔσται σοὶ ἰσχὺς, ὅτι πορεύῃ ἐν ὁδῷ.
23
But he refused, and said, I will not eat. But his servants, together with the woman, compelled him; and he hearkened unto their voice. So he arose from the earth, and sat upon the bed.
Καὶ οὐκ ἐβουλήθη φαγεῖν· καὶ παρεβιάζοντο αὐτὸν οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ καὶ ἡ γυνὴ, καὶ ἤκουσε τῆς φωνῆς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἀνέστη ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἐπὶ τὸν δίφρον.
24
And the woman had a fat calf in the house; and she hasted, and killed it, and took flour, and kneaded it, and did bake unleavened bread thereof:
Καὶ τῇ γυναικὶ ἦν δάμαλις νομὰς ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ· καὶ ἔσπευσε καὶ ἔθυσεν αὐτήν· καὶ ἔλαβεν ἄλευρα καὶ ἐφύρασε, καὶ ἔπεψεν ἄζυμα,
25
And she brought it before Saul, and before his servants; and they did eat. Then they rose up, and went away that night.
καὶ προσήγαγεν ἐνώπιον Σαοὺλ, καὶ ἐνώπιον τῶν παίδων αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἔφαγον, καὶ ἀνέστησαν καὶ ἀπῆλθον τὴν νύκτα ἐκείνην.
