1 Kingdoms 28

And it came to pass in those days that the Philistines gathered themselves together with their armies to go out to fight with Israel; and Anchus said to David, Know surely, that thou shalt go forth to battle with me, 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.

And David said to Anchus, Thus now thou shalt know what thy servant will do. And Anchus said to David, So will I make thee captain of my body-guard continually.

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

And Samuel died, and all Israel lamented for him, and they bury him in his city, in Armathaim. And Saul had removed those who had in them divining 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.

And the Philistines assemble themselves, and come and encamp in Sonam: and Saul gathers all the men of Israel, and they encamp in Gelbue.

Καὶ συναθροίζονται οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι, καὶ ἔρχονται καὶ παρεμβάλλουσιν εἰς Σωνάμ· καὶ συναθροίζει Σαοὺλ πάντα ἄνδρα Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ παρεμβάλλουσιν εἰς Γελβουέ.

And Saul saw the camp of the Philistines, and he was alarmed, and his heart was greatly dismayed.

Καὶ εἶδε Σαοὺλ τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν ἀλλοφύλων, καὶ ἐφοβήθη, καὶ ἐξέστη ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ σφόδρα.

And Saul enquired of the Lord; and the Lord answered him not by dreams, nor by manifestations, nor by prophets.

Καὶ ἐπηρώτησε Σαοὺλ διὰ Κυρίου, καὶ οὐκ ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ Κύριος ἐν τοῖς ἐνυπνίοις καὶ ἐν τοῖς δήλοις καὶ ἐν τοῖς προφήταις.

Then Saul said to his servants, Seek for me a woman who has in her a divining spirit, and I will go to her, and enquire of her: and his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman who has in her a divining spirit at Aendor.

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.

And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and he goes, and two men with him, and they come to the woman by night; and he said to her, Divine to me, I pray thee, by the divining spirit within thee, and bring up to me him whom I shall name to 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.

And the woman said to him, Behold now, thou knowest what Saul has done, how he has cut off those who had in them divining spirits, and the wizards from the land, and why dost thou spread a snare for my life to destroy it?

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;

And Saul swore to her, and said, As the Lord lives, no injury shall come upon thee on this account.

Καὶ ὤμοσεν αὐτῇ Σαοὺλ, λέγων, ζῇ Κύριος, εἰ ἀπαντήσεταί σοι ἀδικία ἐν τῷ λόγῳ τούτῳ.

And the woman said, Whom shall I bring up to thee? and he said, Bring up to me Samuel.

Καὶ εἶπεν ἡ γυνὴ, τίνα ἀναγάγω σοι; καὶ εἶπε, τὸν Σαμουὴλ ἀνάγαγέ μοι.

And the woman saw Samuel, and cried out with a loud voice: and the woman said to Saul, 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.

And the king said to her, Fear not; tell me whom thou hast seen. And the woman said to him, 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.

And he said to her, What didst thou perceive? and she said to him, An upright man ascending out of the earth, and he was clothed with a mantle. And Saul knew that this was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the earth, and did obeisance to him.

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.

And Samuel said, Why hast thou troubled me, that I should come up? And Saul said, I am greatly distressed, and the Philistines war against me, and God has departed from me, and no longer hearkens to me either by the hand of prophets or by dreams: and now I have called thee to tell 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.

And Samuel said, Why askest thou me, whereas the Lord has departed from thee, and taken part with thy neighbour?

Καὶ εἶπε Σαμουὴλ, ἱνατί ἐπερωτᾷς με, καὶ Κύριος ἀφέστηκεν ἀπὸ σοῦ, καὶ γέγονε μετὰ τοῦ πλησίον σου;

And the Lord has done to thee, as the Lord spoke by me; and the Lord will rend thy kingdom out of thy hand, and will give it to thy neighbour 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,

because thou didst not hearken to the voice of the Lord, and didst not execute his fierce anger upon Amalec, therefore the Lord has done this thing to 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.

And the Lord shall deliver Israel with thee into the hands of the Philistines, and to-morrow thou and thy sons with thee shall fall, and the Lord shall deliver the army of Israel into the hands 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.

And Saul instantly fell at his full length upon the earth, and was greatly afraid because of the words of Samuel; and there was no longer any strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all that day, and all that 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.

And the woman went in to Saul, and saw that he was greatly disquieted, and said to him, Behold now, thine handmaid has hearkened to thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have heard the words which thou hast spoken to 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.

And now hearken, I pray thee, to the voice of thine handmaid, and I will set before thee a morsel of bread, and eat, and thou shalt be strengthened, for thou wilt be going 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.

But he would not eat; so his servants and the woman constrained him, and he hearkened to their voice, and rose up from the earth, and sat upon a bench.

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.

And the woman had a fat heifer in the house; and she hasted and slew it; and she took meal and kneaded it, and baked unleavened cakes.

Καὶ τῇ γυναικὶ ἦν δάμαλις νομὰς ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ· καὶ ἔσπευσε καὶ ἔθυσεν αὐτήν· καὶ ἔλαβεν ἄλευρα καὶ ἐφύρασε, καὶ ἔπεψεν ἄζυμα,

And she brought the meat before Saul, and before his servants; and they ate, and rose up, and departed that night.

καὶ προσήγαγεν ἐνώπιον Σαοὺλ, καὶ ἐνώπιον τῶν παίδων αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἔφαγον, καὶ ἀνέστησαν καὶ ἀπῆλθον τὴν νύκτα ἐκείνην.
