4 — 2 Re (2 Samuele)

1And Isboseth the son of Saul heard that Abner was slain in Hebron: and his hands were weakened, and all Israel was troubled.Ma Isboseth figliuolo di Saul avendo udito, come Abner era morto in Hebron, si perde di animo, e tutto Israele ne restò sbigottito.AND Isboseth the sonne of Saul heard that Abner was slaine in Hebron: and his handes were weakened, and al Israel was trubledAudivit autem Isboseth filius Saul quod cecidisset Abner in Hebron: et dissolutæ sunt manus ejus, omnisque Israël perturbatus est. 2Now the son of Saul had two men captains of his bands, the name of the one was Baana, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Remmon a Berothite of the children of Benjamin: for Beroth also was reckoned in Benjamin.Il figliuolo di Saulle avea due capi di ladroni, de' quali uno chiamavasi Baana, e l'altro Rechab, figliuoli di Remmon di Beroth della tribù di Beniamin: perocché Beroth era anch'essa considerata come della tribù di Beniamin:And the sonne of Saul had two men captaynes of robbers, the name of one Baana, and the name of the other Rechab, the sonnes of Rhemmon the Berothite of the sonnes of Beniamin: for Beroth also was accounted in Beniamin.Duo autem viri principes latronum erant filio Saul, nomen uni Baana, et nomen alteri Rechab, filii Remmon Berothitæ de filiis Benjamin: siquidem et Beroth reputata est in Benjamin. 3And the Berothites fled into Gethaim, and were sojourners there until that time.Ma que' di Beroth si rifuggirono a Gethaim, e ivi abitarono come forestieri fino a questi dì.And the Berothites fled into Gethaim, and were there strangers vntil that time.Et fugerunt Berothitæ in Gethaim, fueruntque ibi advenæ usque ad tempus illud. 4And Jonathan the son of Saul had a son that was lame of his feet: for he was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan from Jezrahel. And his nurse took him up and fled: and as she made haste to flee, he fell and became lame: and his name was Miphiboseth.Or Gionata figliuolo di Saul avea un figliuolo stroppiato delle gambe: perocché egli avea cinque anni, quando arrivò da Jezrahel la nuova della morte di Saul, e di Gionata, e la balia avendolo preso per fuggirsene, e scappando via frettolosamente, egli fece una caduta, e rimase stroppiato e il suo nome era Miphiboseth.And Ionathas the sonne of Saul had a sonne lame in his feete: for he was fiue yeares old, when the tydinges came of Saul and Ionathas from Iezrahel. his nurse therefore taking him, fled: and when she made hast to flee, he fel, and was made lame: and he was called Miphiboseth.Erat autem Jonathæ filio Saul filius debilis pedibus: quinquennis enim fuit, quando venit nuntius de Saul et Jonatha ex Jezrahel. Tollens itaque eum nutrix sua, fugit: cumque festinaret ut fugeret, cecidit, et claudus effectus est: habuitque vocabulum Miphiboseth.

5And the sons of Remmon the Berothite, Rechab and Baana coming, went into the house of Isboseth in the heat of the day: and he was sleeping upon his bed at noon. And the doorkeeper of the house, who was cleansing wheat, was fallen asleep.Andarono adunque i figliuoli di Remmon di Beroth, Rechab e Baana, ed entrarono nella sferza del sole in casa d'Isboseth, il quale dormiva nel suo letto nelle ore meridiane: e la portinaja di casa nettando il grano si era addormentata.Therefore the sonnes of Rhemmon the Berothite, Rachab and Baana coming, entered into the house of Isboseth in the heat of the day: who slept vpon his bed at noone.Venientes igitur filii Remmon Berothitæ, Rechab et Baana, ingressi sunt fervente die domum Isboseth: qui dormiebat super stratum suum meridie. Et ostiaria domus purgans triticum, obdormivit. 6And they entered into the house secretly taking ears of corn, and Rechab and Baana his brother stabbed him in the groin, and fled away.E Rechab, e Baana suo fratello entrarono in casa senza esser veduti, prendendo delle spighe di grano, e ferirono Isboseth nell'anguinaja, e si fuggirono.And they entered into the house secretely taking eares of corne, and Rechab and Baana his brother, stroke him in priuy partes and fled.Ingressi sunt autem domum latenter assumentes spicas tritici, et percusserunt eum in inguine Rechab, et Baana frater ejus, et fugerunt. 7For when they came into the house, he was sleeping upon his bed in a parlour, and they struck him and killed him and taking away his head they went off by the way of the wilderness, walking all night.Perocché quando essi entrarono in casa, egli dormiva sul suo letto nella camera, onde lo uccisero: e tolta la sua testa, e presa la via del deserto camminarono tutta la notte,And when they were entred into the house, he slept vpon his bed in a parler, and striking they killed him: and taking away his head they went by the way of the desert al night.Cum autem ingressi fuissent domum, ille dormiebat super lectum suum in conclavi, et percutientes interfecerunt eum: sublatoque capite ejus, abierunt per viam deserti tota nocte, 8And they brought the head of Isboseth to David to Hebron: and they said to the king: Behold the head of Isboseth the son of Saul thy enemy who sought thy life: and the Lord hath revenged my lord the king this day of Saul, and of his seed.E portarono il capo d'Isboseth a David in Hebron, e dissero al re: Ecco il capo d'Isboseth figliuolo di Saul tuo nemico, il quale macchinava di toglierti la vita: e oggi il Signore ha fatte le vendette del re mio signore sopra Saul, e sopra la sua stirpe.And brought the head of Isboseth to Dauid into Hebron: and they said to the king: Behold the head of Isboseth the sonne of Saul thine enemie who sought thy life: and our Lord hath geuen my lord the king this day reuenge of Saul, and of his seede.et attulerunt caput Isboseth ad David in Hebron: dixeruntque ad regem: Ecce caput Isboseth filii Saul inimici tui, qui quærebat animam tuam: et dedit Dominus domino meo regi ultionem hodie de Saul, et de semine ejus.

9But David answered Rechab, and Baana his brother, the sons of Remmon the Berothite, and said to them: As the Lord liveth, who hath delivered my soul out of all distress,Ma David rispose a Rechab e a Baana suo fratello, figliuoli di Remmon di Beroth, e disse loro: Viva il Signore, che ha liberata l'anima mia da tutte le angustie:But Dauid answering Rechab, and Baana his brother, the sonnes of Rhemmon the Berothite, and sayd to them: our Lord liueth, which hath deliuered my soule out of al distresse,Respondens autem David Rechab, et Baana fratri ejus, filiis Remmon Berothitæ, dixit ad eos: Vivit Dominus, qui eruit animam meam de omni angustia, 10The man that told me, and said: Saul is dead, who thought he brought good tidings, I apprehended, and slew him in Siceleg, who should have been rewarded for his news.Colui, che mi portò quella nuova e disse: Saul è morto, pensandosi di portare gradita novella, io lo feci prendere, e uccidere in Siceleg, quando per la nuova parea doversegli premio.for so much as him that told me, and said: Saul is dead, who thought that he told prosperous thinges, I apprehended, and slewe him in Siceleg, to whom I should haue geuen a reward for his tydinges.quoniam eum qui annuntiaverat mihi, et dixerat: Mortuus est Saul: qui putabat se prospera nuntiare, tenui, et occidi eum in Siceleg, cui oportebat mercedem dare pro nuntio. 11How much more now when wicked men have slain an innocent man in his own house, upon his bed, shall I not require his blood at your hand, and take you away from the earth?Quanto più adesso che uomini scellerati hanno ucciso un innocente in casa sua sul suo letto, vendicherò il sangue di lui sopra di voi e vi leverò dal mondo!How much more now when wicked men haue slaine an innocent man in his owne house, vpon his bed, shal I not require his bloud of your hand, and take you away from the earth?Quanto magis nunc cum homines impii interfecerunt virum innoxium in domo sua, super lectum suum, non quæram sanguinem ejus de manu vestra, et auferam vos de terra ? 12And David commanded his servants and they slew them: and cutting off their hands and feet, hanged them up over the pool in Hebron: but the head of Isboseth they took and buried in the sepulchre of Abner in Hebron.E David diede l'ordine a' suoi servi, e questi gli uccisero: e troncate loro le mani, e i piedi, gli appiccarono sopra la piscina di Hebron: e preso il capo d'Isboseth, lo seppellirono nel sepolcro di Abner in Hebron.Dauid therefore commanded his seruantes, and they slew them, and cutting of their hands and feete, hanged them ouer the poole in Hebron: but the head of Isboseth they tooke, and buried in the sepulcher of Abner in Hebron.Præcepit itaque David pueris suis, et interfecerunt eos: præcidentesque manus et pedes eorum, suspenderunt eos super piscinam in Hebron: caput autem Isboseth tulerunt, et sepelierunt in sepulchro Abner in Hebron.
