17 — 1 Re (1 Samuele)

1Now the Philistines gathering together their troops to battle, assembled at Socho of Juda: and camped between Socho and Azeca, in the borders of Dommim.Ma i Filistei, messe insieme le loro schiere per combattere, si adunarono a Socho di Giuda, e posero il campo tra Socho, e Azeca a' confini di Dommim.AND the Philisthijms gathering together their companies vnto battel, assembled into Socho of Iuda: and camped betwen Socho & Azeca in the borders of Dommim.Congregantes autem Philisthiim agmina sua in prælium, convenerunt in Socho Judæ: et castrametati sunt inter Socho et Azeca in finibus Dommim. 2And Saul and the children of Israel being gathered together, came to the valley of Terebinth, and they set the army in array to fight against the Philistines.E Saul co' figliuoli d'Israele uniti insieme andarono nella Valle del terebinto, e schieraron l'esercito per combattere i Filistei.Moreouer Saul and the children of Israel being gathered together came into the Valley of terebinth, and they put the armie in aray to fight against the Philistijms.Porro Saul et filii Israël congregati venerunt in Vallem terebinthi, et direxerunt aciem ad pugnandum contra Philisthiim. 3And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.E i Filistei stavan sul monte da una parte, e Israele stava sul monte dall'altra parte: e la valle li divideva.And the Philistijms stoode vpon the mountaine on this side, and Israel stoode vpon the mountaine on the other side: and the valley was betwen them.Et Philisthiim stabant super montem ex parte hac, et Israël stabat supra montem ex altera parte: vallisque erat inter eos. 4And there went out a man baseborn from the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Geth, whose height was six cubits and a span:Quando uscì dagli alloggiamenti de' Filistei un uomo bastardo, per nome Goliath, di Geth, alto sei cubiti e un palmo.And there came forth a man that was a bastard from the campe of the Philistians named Goliath, of Geth, in height six cubites and a palme:Et egressus est vir spurius de castris Philisthinorum nomine Goliath, de Geth, altitudinis sex cubitorum et palmi: 5And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clothed with a coat of mail with scales, and the weight of his coat of mail was five thousand sicles of brass:E avea in testa una celata di rame, ed era vestito di una corazza fatta a squamme, e il peso della corazza era del peso di cinque mila sicli di rame:and a helmet of brasse vpon his head, and he was clothed with a cote of mayle linked. moreouer the weight of his cote of mayle was fiue thousand sicles of brasse:et cassis ærea super caput ejus, et lorica squamata induebatur. Porro pondus loricæ ejus, quinque millia siclorum æris erat:

6And he had greaves of brass on his legs, and a buckler of brass covered his shoulders.E avea agli stinchi gambiere di rame: e uno scudo di rame gli copriva le spalle:and he had brassen bootes on his thighes, and a target of brasse couered his shoulders.et ocreas æreas habebat in cruribus, et clypeus æreus tegebat humeros ejus. 7And the staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam, and the head of his spear weighed six hundred sicles of iron: and his armourbearer went before him.E l'asta della sua lancia era come un subbio da tessitore; e il ferro della sua lancia pesava secento sicli: e innanzi a lui andava il suo scudiere.And the shaft of his speare was as it were a weauers beame. and the verie yton of his speare had six hundred sicles of yron: and his esquier went before him.Hastile autem hastæ ejus erat quasi liciatorium texentium: ipsum autem ferrum hastæ ejus sexcentos siclos habebat ferri: et armiger ejus antecedebat eum. 8And standing, he cried out to the bands of Israel, and said to them: Why are you come out prepared to fight? am not I a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose out a man of you, and let him come down and fight hand to hand.E stando in piedi gridava verso le falangi d'Israele, e diceva loro: Per qual motivo siete voi venuti in ordine per la battaglia? Non son io Filisteo, e voi servi di Saul? Scegliete uno di voi, e venga a combattere testa a testa.And standing he cried against the bandes of Israel, and sayd to them: Why came you prepared to fight? Am not I a Philistian, and you the seruantes of Saul? Choose out a man of you and let him descend to fight hand to hand.Stansque clamabat adversum phalangas Israël, et dicebat eis: Quare venistis parati ad prælium ? numquid ego non sum Philisthæus, et vos servi Saul ? eligite ex vobis virum, et descendat ad singulare certamen. 9If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, we will be servants to you: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, you shall be servants, and shall serve us.Se egli avrà forze da combatter con me, è torrammi la vita, noi sarem vostri servi: ma se io sarò vincitore, e lo ucciderò, voi sarete schiavi, e servirete a noi.If he shal be able to fight with me, and strike me, we wil be seruantes to you: but if I shal preuaile, and shal beate him, you shal be seruantes, and shal serue vs.Si quiverit pugnare mecum, et percusserit me, erimus vobis servi: si autem ego prævaluero, et percussero eum, vos servi eritis, et servietis nobis. 10And the Philistine said: I have defied the bands of Israel this day: give me a man, and let him fight with me hand to hand.E diceva il Filisteo: Io oggi ho svergognato le schiere d'Israele, dicendo: Datemi un uomo, che venga meco a battaglia testa a testa.And the Philistian sayd: I haue defyed the bandes of Israel this day: Geue me a man, and let him fight with me hand to hand.Et aiebat Philisthæus: Ego exprobravi agminibus Israël hodie: date mihi virum, et ineat mecum singulare certamen.

11And Saul and all the Israelites hearing these words of the Philistine, were dismayed, and greatly afraid.Ma Saul, e tutti gli Israeliti all'udir le parole del Filisteo si sbigottivano, e temevano formisura.And Saul and al the Israelites hearing such wordes of the Philistian were astonied, and feared excedingly.Audiens autem Saul et omnes Israëlitæ sermones Philisthæi hujuscemodi, stupebant, et metuebant nimis. 12Now David was the son of that Ephrathite, of Bethlehem Juda, before mentioned, whose name was Isai, who had eight sons, and was an old man in the days of Saul, and of great age among men.Eravi quel Davidde figliuolo di un Ephratheo di Bethlehem di Giuda chiamato Isai, del quale si è parlato di sopra, che aveva otto figliuoli, ed era vecchio, e dei più avanzati in età a tempo di Saul.And there was Dauid the sonne of a man that was an Ephratheite, of whom there was mention before, of Bethlehem Iuda, whose name was Isai, who had eight sonnes, and he was in the dayes of Saul an old man, and aged among men.David autem erat filius viri Ephrathæi, de quo supra dictum est, de Bethlehem Juda, cui nomen erat Isai, qui habebat octo filios, et erat vir in diebus Saul senex, et grandævus inter viros. 13And his three eldest sons followed Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle, were Eliab, the firstborn, and the second, Abinadab, and the third Samma:E i tre figliuoli maggiori di lui erano andati alla guerra con Saul: e i nomi de' tre figliuoli che eran iti alla guerra (sono) Eliab primogenito, Abinadab il secondo, Samma il terzo.And his three elder sonnes went after Saul into battel: and the names of his three sonnes, which went to battel, were Eliab the first begotten, and the second Abinadab, the third also Samma:Abierunt autem tres filii ejus majores post Saul in prælium: et nomina trium filiorum ejus qui perrexerunt ad bellum, Eliab primogenitus, et secundus Abinadab, tertiusque Samma. 14But David was the youngest. So the three eldest having followed Saul,E David era il più piccolo. Avendo adunque li tre maggiori seguito Saul,and Dauid was the yongest. The three elder therefore hauing folowed Saul,David autem erat minimus. Tribus ergo majoribus secutis Saulem, 15David went, and returned from Saul, to feed his father’s flock at Bethlehem.David avea lasciato Saul, ed era tornato a pascolare la greggia del padre suo a Bethlehem.Dauid went, and returned from Saul, to feede his fathers flocke in Bethlehem.abiit David, et reversus est a Saul ut pasceret gregem patris sui in Bethlehem. 16Now the Philistine came out morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.E il Filisteo usciva fuori la mattina, e la sera, e continuò per quaranta giorni.But the Philistian came forth morning and euening, and stoode fourtie dayes.Procedebat vero Philisthæus mane et vespere, et stabat quadraginta diebus.

17And Isai said to David, his son: Take for thy brethren an ephi of frumenty, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren,Or Isai disse a David suo figliuolo: Prendi un ephi di farina d'orzo, e questi dieci pani, e corri a portargli ai tuoi fratelli agli alloggiamenti.And Isai sayd to Dauid his sonne: Take for thy brethren an ephi of polent, and these ten loaues, and runne into the campe to thy brethren,Dixit autem Isai ad David filium suum: Accipe fratribus tuis ephi polentæ, et decem panes istos, et curre in castra ad fratres tuos, 18And carry these ten little cheeses to the tribune: and go see thy brethren, if they are well: and learn with whom they are placed.E porta al tribuno queste dieci caciuole; e vedi se i tuoi fratelli stan bene, e informati in quale squadra sieno posti.and these ten litle cheeses thou shalr carie to the tribune: and shalt visite thy brethren, if they doe wel: and learne with whom they are placed.et decem formellas casei has deferes ad tribunum: et fratres tuos visitabis, si recte agant: et cum quibus ordinati sunt, disce. 19But Saul, and they, and all the children of Israel, were in the valley of Terebinth, fighting against the Philistines.Ma Saul, e que' (figliuoli d'Isai), e tutt'i figliuoli d'Israele stavano in faccia a' Filistei alla Valle del terebinto.And Saul, and they, and al the children of Israel fought in the Valley of terebiuth against the Philistijms.Saul autem, et illi, et omnes filii Israël, in Valle terebinthi pugnabant adversum Philisthiim. 20David, therefore, arose in the morning, and gave the charge of the flock to the keeper: and went away loaded, as Isai had commanded him. And he came to the place of Magala, and to the army, which was going out to fight, and shouted for the battle.Davidde pertanto levossi di gran mattino, e raccomandò la greggia al guardiano, e col suo carico andò come gli avea ordinato Isai. E giunse al luogo di Magala, e presso all'esercito, il quale essendo uscito per combattere aveva alzato il grido della battaglia.Dauid therefore arose in the morning, and commended the flocke to the keeper: and he went loaded as Isai had commanded him. And he came to the place Magala, and to the host, which issuing out to fight had made a shoute in the battel.Surrexit itaque David mane, et commendavit gregem custodi: et onustus abiit, sicut præceperat ei Isai. Et venit ad locum Magala, et ad exercitum, qui egressus ad pugnam vociferatus erat in certamine. 21For Israel had put themselves in array, and the Philistines who stood against them were prepared.Perocché Israele aveva messe in ordine le sue schiere, e i Filistei dall'altra parte erano preparati.For Israel had put them selues in aray, and the Philistijms on the contrarie side were prepared.Direxerat enim aciem Israël, sed et Philisthiim ex adverso fuerant præparati.

22And David leaving the vessels which he had brought, under the care of the keeper of the baggage, ran to the place of the battle, and asked if all things went well with his brethren.Davidde adunque lasciata presso i bagagli la roba, che avea portata, in mano di uno che la custodisse, corse al luogo della battaglia, e s'informava, se tutto andasse bene pe' suoi fratelli.Dauid therefore leauing the vessels which he had brought, vnder the hand of him, that was keeper at the bagage, ranne to the place of the battel and asked if al thinges went wel with his brethren.Derelinquens ergo David vasa quæ attulerat sub manu custodis ad sarcinas, cucurrit ad locum certaminis, et interrogabat si omnia recte agerentur erga fratres suos. 23And as he talked with them, that baseborn man, whose name was Goliath, the Philistine, of Geth, shewed himself coming up from the camp of the Philistines: and he spoke according to the same words, and David heard them,E mentr'ei parlava di questo, comparve quell'uomo bastardo, di nome Goliath, Filisteo, di Geth, che usciva dal campo de' Filistei: e ripetendo questi le solite parole, lo udì Davidde.And when he yet spake to them, that man the bastard appeared coming vp, named Goliath, the Philistian of Geth, coming vp from the campe of the Philistians: and he speaking these self same wordes, Dauid heard them.Cumque adhuc ille loqueretur eis, apparuit vir ille spurius ascendens, Goliath nomine, Philisthæus de Geth, de castris Philisthinorum: et loquente eo hæc eadem verba audivit David. 24And all the Israelites, when they saw the man, fled from his face, fearing him exceedingly.Or tutti gl'Israeliti, veduto colui, lo fuggivano: perocché ne aveano gran paura.And al the Israelites when they had sene the man, fled from his face, fearing him excedingly.Omnes autem Israëlitæ, cum vidissent virum, fugerunt a facie ejus, timentes eum valde. 25And some one of Israel said: Have you seen this man that is come up, for he is come up to defy Israel. And the man that shall slay him, the king will enrich with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and will make his father’s house free from tribute in Israel.E un uomo d'Israele disse: Vedete voi quell'uomo che è uscito fuora? egli viene ad insultare Israele. Or chiunque lo uccida, il re lo farà grandemente ricco, e gli darà la propria sua figliuola, ed esenterà in Israele la casa del padre suo da' tributi.And some one of Israel sayd: Haue you seene this man that came vp, to defye Israel he came vp? The man therefore that shal strike him, the King wil geue him his daughter, and he wil make his fathers house without tribute in Israel.Et dixit unus quispiam de Israël: Num vidistis virum hunc, qui ascendit ? ad exprobrandum enim Israëli ascendit. Virum ergo qui percusserit eum, ditabit rex divitiis magnis, et filiam suam dabit ei, et domum patris ejus faciet absque tributo in Israël.

26And David spoke to the men that stood by him, saying: What shall be given to the man that shall kill this Philistine, and shall take away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?E Davidde disse alla gente, che eragli attorno: Che darann'eglino a chi ucciderà questo Filisteo, e torrà l'obbrobrio da Israele? Perocché chi è egli questo Filisteo incirconciso, che vitupera le schiere di Dio vivo?And Dauid spake to the men that stood with him, saying: What shal be geuen to the man that shal beate this Philistian, and shal take away the reproch from Israel? For who is this vncircumcised Philistian, which hath vpbraided the armies of the liuing God?Et ait David ad viros qui stabant secum, dicens: Quid dabitur viro qui percusserit Philisthæum hunc, et tulerit opprobrium de Israël ? quis enim est hic Philisthæus incircumcisus, qui exprobravit acies Dei viventis ? 27And the people answered him the same words, saying: These things shall be given to the man that shall slay him.E la gente ripeteva a lui le stesse parole, dicendo: Questo, e questo si darà a chi lo uccida.And the people reported vnto him the self same worde, saying: These thinges shal be geuen to the man, that shal strike him.Referebat autem ei populus eumdem sermonem, dicens: Hæc dabuntur viro qui percusserit eum. 28Now when Eliab his eldest brother heard this, when he was speaking with others, he was angry with David, and said: Why camest thou hither? and why didst thou leave those few sheep in the desert? I know thy pride, and the wickedness of thy heart: that thou art come down to see the battle.Ma mentre quegli parlava così con altri, avendolo udito Eliab, suo fratello maggiore, andò in collera contro Davidde, e disse: Perchè sei tu venuto qua, e hai abbandonate quelle poche pecore nel deserto? Io conosco la tua superbia, e la malvagità del tuo cuore: tu se' venuto a veder la battaglia.Which when Eliab his eldest brother had heard, when he spake with others, he was angrie against Dauid, and sayd: Wherefore cau•cst thou? and why hast thou left those few sheepe in the desert? I know thy pride, and the wickednes of thy hart: that to see the battel thou art come downe.Quod cum audisset Eliab frater ejus major, loquente eo cum aliis, iratus est contra David, et ait: Quare venisti, et quare dereliquisti pauculas oves illas in deserto ? Ego novi superbiam tuam, et nequitiam cordis tui: quia ut videres prælium, descendisti. 29And David said: What have I done? is there not cause to speak?E David disse: che ho io fatto? è ella altro, che una parola?And Dauid sayd: What haue I done? is there not cause to speake?Et dixit David: Quid feci ? numquid non verbum est ?

30And he turned a little aside from him to another: and said the same word. And the people answered him as before.E si scostò alquanto da lui, e andò verso altri, e disse le stesse cose: e la gente gli diede la stessa risposta di prima.And he went a litle aside from him to an other: and sayd the sel same word. And the people answered him as beforeEt declinavit paululum ab eo ad alium: dixitque eumdem sermonem. Et respondit ei populus verbum sicut prius. 31And the words which David spoke were heard, and were rehearsed before Saul.Or le parole di David essendo state sentite, furono riportate a Saul.And the wordes which Dauid spake were heard, and told in the sight of Saul.Audita sunt autem verba quæ locutus est David, et annuntiata in conspectu Saul. 32And when he was brought to Saul, he said to him. Let not any man’s heart be dismayed in him: I thy servant will go, and will fight against the Philistine.Dinanzi al quale essendo egli stato condotto, gli disse: Nissuno si sbigottisca per ragione di colui: io tuo servo andrò, e combatterò con quel Filisteo.To whom when he was brought, he spake vnto him: Let not any mans hart be discouraged in him: I thy seruant wil goe, and wil fight against the Philistian.Ad quem cum fuisset adductus, locutus est ei: Non concidat cor cujusquam in eo: ego servus tuus vadam, et pugnabo adversus Philisthæum. 33And Saul said to David: Thou art not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him: for thou art but a boy, but he is a warrior from his youth.Ma Saul disse a David: Tu non hai forza da stare appetto a quel Filisteo, nè per combattere contro di lui, perchè tu se' un giovanetto, ed egli è un uomo guerriero fin dalla sua puerizia.And Saul sayd to Dauid: Thou art not able to resist this Philistian, nor to fight against him, because thou art a childe, but he is a man of warre from his youth.Et ait Saul ad David: Non vales resistere Philisthæo isti, nec pugnare adversus eum, quia puer es: hic autem vir bellator est ab adolescentia sua. 34And David said to Saul: Thy servant kept his father’s sheep, and there came a lion, or a bear, and took a ram out of the midst of the flock:E Davidde disse a Saul: Il tuo servo pascolava la greggia del padre suo, e veniva un lione, ed un orso, e prendeva un ariete di mezzo al gregge:And Dauid sayd to Saul: Thy seruant did fecde his fathers slock, and there came a lyon, or a beare, and tooke a ramme out of the middes of the flocke:Dixitque David ad Saul: Pascebat servus tuus patris sui gregem, et veniebat leo vel ursus, et tollebat arietem de medio gregis: 35And I pursued after them, and struck them, and delivered it out of their mouth: and they rose up against me, and I caught them by the throat, and I strangled, and killed them.E io gl'inseguiva, e gli uccideva, strappando dalle lor fauci (la preda); e quelli si voltavan contro di me, e io li prendeva per la gola e gli strangolava, e gli uccideva.and I pursued them, and stroke them, and plucked them out of their mouth, and they arose vp against me, and I caught their chinne, and I strangled and slew them.et persequebar eos, et percutiebam, eruebamque de ore eorum: et illi consurgebant adversum me, et apprehendebam mentum eorum, et suffocabam, interficiebamque eos.

36For I thy servant have killed both a lion and a bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be also as one of them. I will go now, and take away the reproach of the people: for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, who hath dared to curse the army of the living God?Perocché e un leone, e un orso ho ucciso io tuo servo: sarà adunque come uno di questi anche questo Filisteo incirconciso. Adesso io anderò, e torrò l'obbrobrio del popolo: perocché chi è egli questo Filisteo incirconciso, che ha ardito di maledire l'esercito di Dio vivo?For both the lyon and the beare did I thy seruant kil: therefore this vncircumcised Philistian also, shal be as it were one of them. Now wil I goe and take away the reproch of the people: for who is this vncircumcised Philistian, which hath beene so hardie to curse the host of the liuing God?Nam et leonem et ursum interfeci ego servus tuus: erit igitur et Philisthæus hic incircumcisus quasi unus ex eis. Nunc vadam, et auferam opprobrium populi: quoniam quis est iste Philisthæus incircumcisus, qui ausus est maledicere exercitui Dei viventis ? 37And David said: The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David: Go, and the Lord be with thee.E soggiunse David: Il Signore, che liberommi dal lione, e dall'orso, egli mi libererà dalle mani di questo Filisteo. E Saul disse a Davidde: Va, il Signore sia teco.And Dauid sayd: Our Lord which hath deliuered me from the hand of the lion, and of the beare, he wil deliuer me from the hand of this Philistian. And Saul sayd to Dauid: Goe, and our Lord be with thee.Et ait David: Dominus qui eripuit me de manu leonis, et de manu ursi, ipse me liberabit de manu Philisthæi hujus. Dixit autem Saul ad David: Vade, et Dominus tecum sit. 38And Saul clothed David with his garments, and put a helmet of brass upon his head, and armed him with a coat of mail.E Saul lo rivestì delle sue vesti, e gli mise in capo una celata di rame, e lo armò di corazza.And Saul clothed Dauid with his rayments, and put an helmet of brasse vpon his head, and vested him with a coate of maile.Et induit Saul David vestimentis suis, et imposuit galeam æream super caput ejus, et vestivit eum lorica. 39And David having girded his sword upon his armour, began to try if he could walk in armour: for he was not accustomed to it. And David said to Saul: I cannot go thus, for I am not used to it. And he laid them off,Davidde allora cintosi la spada di lui sopra la sua veste, cominciò a far prova se potesse camminare così armato: perocché non era avvezzo (a questo). E disse David a Saul: Io così non posso muovermi, perchè non son uso. E depose quelle cose.Dauid therefore being girded with his sword ouer his rayment, beganne to proue if he could goe armed: for he was not accustomed. And Dauid sayd to Saul: I can not goe so, because I am not vsed, and he layd them of.Accinctus ergo David gladio ejus super vestem suam, cœpit tentare si armatus posset incedere: non enim habebat consuetudinem. Dixitque David ad Saul: Non possum sic incedere, quia non usum habeo. Et deposuit ea, 40And he took his staff, which he had always in his hands: and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them into the shepherd’s scrip, which he had with him, and he took a sling in his hand, and went forth against the Philistine.E prese il suo bastone che avea sempre in mano, e scelse dal torrente cinque limpidissime pietre, e le mise nella sua taschetta da pastore che avea seco, e prese in mano la fionda, e andò contro il Filisteo.And he tooke his staffe, which he had alwaies in his handes: & he chose him fiue most bright stones out of the torrent, and cast them into the shepherds skrippe, which he had with him, and he tooke a sling in his hand, and went forth against the Philistian.et tulit baculum suum, quem semper habebat in manibus: et elegit sibi quinque limpidissimos lapides de torrente, et misit eos in peram pastoralem quam habebat secum, et fundam manu tulit: et processit adversum Philisthæum.

41And the Philistine came on, and drew nigh against David, and his armourbearer went before him.E il Filisteo si mosse con grave passo accostandosi verso David, e avea innanzi il suo scudiere.And the Philistian went, going, and approching against Dauid, and his esquier before him.Ibat autem Philisthæus incedens, et appropinquans adversum David, et armiger ejus ante eum. 42And when the Philistine looked, and beheld David, he despised him. For he was a young man, ruddy, and of a comely countenance.E quando il Filisteo ebbe veduto, e squadrato Davidde, Io disprezzò. Perocché era giovinetto rosso di pelo, e di bell'aspetto.And when the Philistian had seene, and beheld Dauid, he despised him. And he was a yong man redde, and beautiful to behold.Cumque inspexisset Philisthæus, et vidisset David, despexit eum. Erat enim adolescens, rufus, et pulcher aspectu. 43And the Philistine said to David: Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with a staff? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.E disse il Filisteo a David: Son io un cane, che tu vieni verso di me col bastone? E il Filisteo maledisse David (giurando) pe' suoi dei.And the Philistian sayd to Dauid: Why am I a dogge, that thou comest to me with a staffe? And the Philistian cursed Dauid in his goddes.Et dixit Philisthæus ad David: Numquid ego canis sum, quod tu venis ad me cum baculo ? Et maledixit Philisthæus David in diis suis: 44And he said to David: Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.E disse a David: Vieni qua, e io darò il tuo carname agli uccelli dell'aria, e alle fiere della terra.and sayd to Dauid: Come to me, and I wil geue thy flesh to the foules of the ayre and the beastes of the earth.dixitque ad David: Veni ad me, et dabo carnes tuas volatilibus cæli et bestiis terræ. 45And David said to the Philistine: Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which thou hast defied.Ma David disse al Filisteo: Tu vieni a me colla spada, e colla lancia, e collo scudo: e io vengo a te nel nome del Signore degli eserciti, del Dio delle schiere d'Israele, alle quali hai detta villania quest'oggi,And Dauid sayd to the Philistian: Thou comest to me with a sword, and speare, and sheeld, but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the bandes of Israel, whom thou hast defiedDixit autem David ad Philisthæum: Tu venis ad me cum gladio, et hasta, et clypeo: ego autem venio ad te in nomine Domini exercituum, Dei agminum Israël quibus exprobrasti

46This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.E il Signore ti darà nelle mie mani, e ti ucciderò, e troncherò il tuo capo: e darò oggi i cadaveri dei Filistei agli uccelli dell'aria, e alle fiere della terra; affinchè tutta la terra conosca, come v'ha un Dio in Israele.this day, and our Lord shal geue thee in my hand, and I shal strike thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I shal geue the carcasses of the campe of the Philistijms this day, to the fowles of the ayre, and to the beastes of the earth: that al the earth may knowe that there is a God in Israel.hodie, et dabit te Dominus in manu mea, et percutiam te, et auferam caput tuum a te: et dabo cadavera castrorum Philisthiim hodie volatilibus cæli, et bestiis terræ, ut sciat omnis terra quia est Deus in Israël, 47And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for it is his battle, and he will deliver you into our hands.E tutta questa gente adunata comprenda che il Signore dà salute non per mezzo della spada, o della lancia: perocché in man del Signore sta la guerra, ed egli daravvi nelle nostre mani.And al this assemblie shal know, that not in sword, nor in speare, doth our Lord saue, for it is his battel, and he wil deliuer you into our handes.et noverit universa ecclesia hæc, quia non in gladio nec in hasta salvat Dominus: ipsius enim est bellum, et tradet vos in manus nostras. 48And when the Philistine arose, and was coming, and drew nigh to meet David, David made haste, and ran to the fight to meet the Philistine.Quando adunque il Filisteo si alzò avvicinandosi a David, si affrettò David, e corse verso il Filisteo per assalirlo.When the Philistian therefore was risen vp, and came and approched against Dauid, Dauid made hast, & ranne to the battel against the Philistian.Cum ergo surrexisset Philisthæus, et veniret, et appropinquaret contra David, festinavit David et cucurrit ad pugnam ex adverso Philisthæi. 49And he put his hand into his scrip, and took a stone, and cast it with the sling, and fetching it about, struck the Philistine in the forehead: and the stone was fixed in his forehead, and he fell on his face upon the earth.E mise la mano nella taschetta, e ne cavò una pietra, e la scagliò, menata in giro la fionda, e percosse il Filisteo nella fronte: e la pietra restò fitta nella fronte di lui, ed ei cadde boccone per terra.And he put his hand into his skrippe, and tooke one stone, and cast it with the sling, and fetching it about stroke the Philistian in the forehead, and he fel on his face vpon the earth.Et misit manum suam in peram, tulitque unum lapidem, et funda jecit, et circumducens percussit Philisthæum in fronte: et infixus est lapis in fronte ejus, et cecidit in faciem suam super terram.

50And David prevailed over the Philistine, with a sling and a stone, and he struck, and slew the Philistine. And as David had no sword in his hand,E Davidde ebbe vittoria del Filisteo, mediante una fionda, e una pietra, e percosso che ebbe il Filisteo, lo uccise. E siccome egli non avea spada alla mano,And Dauid preuailed agaynst the Philistian with sling and stone, and he stroke, and slew the Philistian. And whereas Dauid had no sword in his hand,Prævaluitque David adversum Philisthæum in funda et lapide, percussumque Philisthæum interfecit. Cumque gladium non haberet in manu David, 51He ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath, and slew him, and cut off his head. And the Philistines seeing that their champion was dead, fled away.Corse, e gettossi sul Filisteo, e prese la sua spada, e sguainatala lo finì, e tagliò la sua testa. Or veggendo i Filistei, come il più forte di tutti loro era morto, se ne fuggirono.he ranne, and stood vpon the Philistian, and tooke his sword, and drew it out of the scabard, and slew him, and cut of his head. And the Philistijms seing, that the strongest of them was dead, did flee.cucurrit, et stetit super Philisthæum, et tulit gladium ejus, et eduxit eum de vagina sua: et interfecit eum, præciditque caput ejus. Videntes autem Philisthiim quod mortuus esset fortissimus eorum, fugerunt. 52And the men of Israel and Juda rising up shouted, and pursued after the Philistines till they came to the valley and to the gates of Accaron, and there fell many wounded of the Philistines in the way of Saraim, and as far as Geth, and as far as Accaron.Ma la gente d'Israele e di Giuda si mossero, levando un grido, e inseguirono i Filistei sino ad arrivar nella valle, e sino alle porte di Accaron, e furon feriti, e uccisi molti dei Filistei per la strada di Saraim, e fino a Geth, e fino ad Accaron.And the men of Israel and Iuda rising vp shouted, and pursued the Philistians til they came into a valley to the gates of Accaron, and there fel wounded of the Philistijms in the way of Saraim, as farre as Geth, & as farre as AccaronEt consurgentes viri Israël et Juda vociferati sunt, et persecuti sunt Philisthæos usque dum venirent in vallem, et usque ad portas Accaron: cecideruntque vulnerati de Philisthiim in via Saraim, et usque ad Geth, et usque ad Accaron. 53And the children of Israel returning, after they had pursued the Philistines, fell upon their camp.E tornati indietro i figliuoli d'Israele dopo aver inseguito i Filistei, predarono il loro campo.And the children of Israel returning, after they had pursued the Philistians, inuaded their campe.Et revertentes filii Israël postquam persecuti fuerant Philisthæos, invaserunt castra eorum.

54And David taking the head of the Philistine, brought it to Jerusalem: but his armour he put in his tent.E David presa la testa del Filisteo la portò a Gerusalemme, e l'armi di lui ripose nella sua tenda.And Dauid taking the head of the Philistian brought it into Ierusalem: but his armour he layd in his tabernacle.Assumens autem David caput Philisthæi, attulit illud in Jerusalem: arma vero ejus posuit in tabernaculo suo. 55Now at the time that Saul saw David going out against the Philistines, he said to Abner, the captain of the army: Of what family is this young man descended, Abner? And Abner said: As thy soul liveth, O king, I know not.Or in quel punto, in cui Saul avea veduto David, che andava contro il Filisteo, egli avea detto ad Abner capitano dell'esercito: Abner, di qual famiglia è egli questo giovanotto? E Abner gli disse: Per la vita tua, o re, io nol so.And at the same time that Saul saw Dauid going forth against the Philistian, he sayd to Abuer the prince of the armie: Of what stocke is this yong man descended, Abner? And Abner sayd: Thy soule liueth ô king, if I know.Eo autem tempore quo viderat Saul David egredientem contra Philisthæum, ait ad Abner principem militiæ: De qua stirpe descendit hic adolescens, Abner ? Dixitque Abner: Vivit anima tua, rex, si novi. 56And the king said: Inquire thou, whose son this young man is.E il re disse: Informati, di chi sia figliuolo questo giovinetto.And the king sayd: Aske thou, whose sonne this yong man is.Et ait rex: Interroga tu, cujus filius sit iste puer. 57And when David was returned, after the Philistine was slain, Abner took him, and brought him in before Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand.E quando David, ucciso il Filisteo, tornò indietro, Abner lo prese, e lo introdusse alla presenza di Saul, avendo egli in mano la testa del Filisteo.And when Dauid was returned, after the Philisthian was slaine, Abner tooke him, and brought him in before Saul, hauing the head of the Philistian in his hand.Cumque regressus esset David, percusso Philisthæo, tulit eum Abner, et introduxit coram Saule, caput Philisthæi habentem in manu. 58And Saul said to him: Young man, of what family art thou? And David said: I am the son of thy servant Isai the Bethlehemite.E Saul gli disse: Giovinetto, di quale stirpe sei tu? E David disse: Io son figliuolo del tuo servo Isai di Bethlehem.And Saul sayd to him: O yong man of what progenie art thou? And Dauid sayd: I am the sonne of thy seruant Isai the Bethlemite.Et ait ad eum Saul: De qua progenie es, o adolescens ? Dixitque David: Filius servi tui Isai Bethlehemitæ ego sum.
