¹Ja vilistid kogusid oma sõjaväed võitluseks; nad kogunesid Sookosse, mis kuulus Juudale, ning lõid leeri üles Sooko ja Aseka vahele, Efes-Dammimi.

¹And the Philistines assembled their armies to battle, and were gathered together at Sochoh, which belongs to Judah, and encamped between Sochoh and Azekah, in Ephesdammim.

²Ka Saul ja Iisraeli mehed kogunesid ja lõid leeri üles Tammeorgu ning seadsid endid tapluseks vilistite vastu.

²And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and encamped in the valley of terebinths, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.

³Vilistid seisid siinpool mäe peal ja Iisraeli lapsed seisid sealpool mäe peal, ja nende vahel oli org.

³And the Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side; and the ravine was between them.

⁴Siis tuli vilistite leeridest välja kahevõitleja, Koljat nimi, Gatist pärit; ta pikkus oli kuus küünart ja üks vaks.

⁴And there went out a champion from the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.

⁵Tal oli vaskkübar peas ja soomusrüü seljas; see soomusrüü kaalus viis tuhat seeklit vaske.

⁵And he had a helmet of bronze upon his head, and he was clothed with a corselet of scales; and the weight of the corselet was five thousand shekels of bronze.

⁶Ta jalgadel olid vasksed säärekilbid ja tal oli vaskoda õlal.

⁶And he had greaves of bronze upon his legs, and a javelin of bronze between his shoulders.

⁷Ta piigivars oli nagu kangrupoom, ja ta piigiots kaalus kuussada seeklit rauda; ja tema ees käis ta kilbikandja.

⁷And the shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam; and his spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron; and the shield-bearer went before him.

⁸Ta seisis ja hüüdis Iisraeli võitlusridadele ning ütles neile: 'Mispärast tulite välja ja seadsite endid tapluseks? Eks ole mina vilist ja teie Sauli sulased? Valige eneste keskelt üks mees ja las ta tuleb alla minu juurde!

⁸And he stood and cried to the ranks of Israel, and said to them, Why are ye come out to set your battle in array? am not I the Philistine, and ye servants of Saul? choose for yourselves a man, and let him come down to me.

⁹Kui ta suudab minuga võidelda ja lööb mu maha, siis oleme meie teie sulased; aga kui mina ta võidan ja tema maha löön, siis olete teie meie sulased ja peate meid teenima!'

⁹If he be able to fight with me, and to smite me, then will we be your servants; but if I overcome and smite him, then shall ye be our servants and serve us.

¹⁰Ja vilist jätkas: 'Mina teotan täna Iisraeli võitlusridu. Andke mulle üks mees, et võiksime teineteisega võidelda!'

¹⁰And the Philistine said, I have defied the ranks of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together.

¹¹Saul ja kogu Iisrael kuulsid neid vilisti sõnu ja nad kohkusid ning kartsid väga.

¹¹And Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, and they were dismayed and greatly afraid.

¹²Taavet oli selle efratlase poeg Juuda Petlemmast, kelle nimi oli Iisai ja kellel oli kaheksa poega; ja Iisai ise oli Sauli päevil vana ja elatanud.

¹²Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem-Judah whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons; and the man was old in the days of Saul, advanced [in years] among men.

¹³Tema kolm vanemat poega olid läinud ja Saulile sõtta järgnenud; ta kolme sõtta läinud poja nimed olid: esmasündinu Eliab, teine Abinadab ja kolmas Samma.

¹³And the three eldest of the sons of Jesse had gone and followed Saul to the battle; and the names of his three sons that went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and the second to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.

¹⁴Taavet oli kõige noorem; kolm vanemat olid Saulile järgnenud.

¹⁴And David was the youngest; and the three eldest had followed Saul.

¹⁵Taavet oli Sauli juurest läinud tagasi Petlemma oma isa lambaid hoidma.

¹⁵But David went and returned from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem.

¹⁶Vilist ligines hommikuti ja õhtuti, astudes välja neljakümnel päeval.

¹⁶And the Philistine drew near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.

¹⁷Iisai ütles oma pojale Taavetile: 'Võta nüüd oma vendade jaoks see pool vakka kõrvetatud teri ja need kümme leiba ja vii joostes leeri oma vendadele!

¹⁷And Jesse said to David his son, Take, I pray, for thy brethren, this ephah of parched [corn] and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp to thy brethren;

¹⁸Ja need kümme piimajuustu vii tuhandepealikule ja vaata järele, kas su vendade käsi käib hästi, ja võta neilt tõend!'

¹⁸and carry these ten cheeses to the captain of the thousand, and visit thy brethren to see how they are, and take a pledge of them.

¹⁹Ja Saul ning nemad ja kõik Iisraeli mehed olid Tammeorus vilistite vastu sõdimas.

¹⁹Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel [were] in the valley of terebinths, fighting against the Philistines.

²⁰Ja Taavet tõusis hommikul vara, jättis lambad teiste hooleks, võttis oma kandami kaasa ja läks, nagu Iisai teda oli käskinud; ta jõudis vankriteleeri, kui sõjavägi sõjakisa tõstes läks välja võitlusrindele.

²⁰And David rose up early in the morning, and left the sheep with a keeper, and took his charge and went, as Jesse had commanded him. And he came to the wagon-defence; and the host which was going forth to the battle-array shouted for the fight.

²¹Ja Iisrael ja vilistid seadsid endid võitluseks valmis, rinne rinde vastu.

²¹And Israel and the Philistines put the battle in array, rank against rank.

²²Siis jättis Taavet asjad, mida ta kandis, varahoidja kätte ja jooksis rindele; ja jõudnud sinna, küsis ta oma vendade käekäigu järele.

²²And David left the things he was carrying in the hand of the keeper of the baggage, and ran into the ranks, and came and saluted his brethren.

²³Ja kui ta nendega rääkis, vaata, siis tuli kahevõitleja vilist Gatist, Koljat nimi, vilistite ridadest üles ja rääkis neidsamu sõnu; ja Taavet kuulis pealt.

²³And as he talked with them, behold there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the ranks of the Philistines, and spoke according to the same words; and David heard [them].

²⁴Ja kui Iisraeli mehed nägid seda meest, siis nad põgenesid kõik tema eest ja kartsid väga.

²⁴And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him and were greatly afraid.

²⁵Ja üks Iisraeli mees ütles: 'Kas näete seda meest, kes üles tuleb? Ta tuleb muidugi Iisraeli teotama. Aga selle mehe, kes lööb tema maha, lubab kuningas teha väga rikkaks; ta annab temale oma tütre ning vabastab maksust ta isakoja Iisraelis.'

²⁵And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that comes up? for to defy Israel is he come up: and it shall be, that the man who smites him, him will the king enrich with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house free in Israel.

²⁶Ja Taavet küsis meestelt, kes seisid ta juures, öeldes: 'Mida saab see mees, kes lööb selle vilisti maha ja kustutab teotuse Iisraeli pealt? Sest kes on see ümberlõikamata vilist, et ta teotab elava Jumala väehulki?'

²⁶And David spoke to the men that stood by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that smites this Philistine, and takes away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?

²⁷Ja rahvas rääkis temale, mis oli kõneldud, ja ütles, mida saab mees, kes lööb Koljati maha.

²⁷And the people told him after this manner, saying, So shall it be done to the man that smites him.

²⁸Aga Eliab, Taaveti vanem vend, kuulis, kui ta meestega rääkis, ja Eliabi viha süttis põlema Taaveti vastu ja ta ütles: 'Mispärast sina siia tulid? Ja kelle hoolde sa jätsid selle väikese karja sinna kõrbe? Ma tunnen küll su ülbust ja su südame kurjust! Sa tulid muidugi selleks, et näha taplust.'

²⁸And Eliab, his eldest brother, heard while he spoke to the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why art thou come down? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride and the naughtiness of thy heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle.

²⁹Aga Taavet vastas: 'Mida ma siis nüüd olen teinud? Eks see olnud ju ainult kõnelus?'

²⁹And David said, What have I now done? Was it not laid upon me?

³⁰Siis ta pöördus tema juurest ühe teise poole ja küsis sedasama; ja rahvas vastas temale, nagu varem oli olnud kõnet.

³⁰And he turned from him to another, and spoke after the same manner; and the people answered him again after the former manner.

³¹Aga kui neid sõnu kuuldi, mis Taavet rääkis, jutustati neist Saulile ja Saul laskis tema tuua.

³¹And the words were heard which David spoke, and they rehearsed them before Saul; and he sent for him.

³²Ja Taavet ütles Saulile: 'Ärgu lasku keegi tema pärast oma julgust langeda! Su sulane läheb ja võitleb selle vilistiga.'

³²And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him: thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine.

³³Aga Saul ütles Taavetile: 'Ei suuda sina minna selle vilisti vastu, et temaga võidelda, sest sa oled noor, tema on aga noorest põlvest peale sõjamees.'

³³And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for thou art but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.

³⁴Siis ütles Taavet Saulile: 'Su sulane oli oma isa lammaste ja kitsede karjane. Kui tuli lõvi või karu ja viis lamba karjast ära,

³⁴And David said to Saul, Thy servant fed his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and also a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock.

³⁵siis ma läksin temale järele ja lõin ta maha ning päästsin saagi tema suust; ja kui ta tõusis mu vastu, siis ma haarasin tal habemest kinni, lõin ta maha ja tapsin ta.

³⁵And I went after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth; and when he arose against me, I seized him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him.

³⁶Su sulane on niihästi lõvi kui karu maha löönud; ja see vilist, see ümberlõikamatu, saab olema nagu üks neist, sest ta on teotanud elava Jumala väehulki.'

³⁶Thy servant smote both the lion and the bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, because he has defied the armies of the living God.

³⁷Ja Taavet ütles: 'Küllap Issand, kes mind on päästnud lõvi ja karu küüsist, päästab mind ka selle vilisti käest.' Siis ütles Saul Taavetile: 'Mine, ja Issand olgu sinuga!'

³⁷And David said, Jehovah 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 Jehovah be with thee.

³⁸Ja Saul pani oma riided Taavetile selga, andis temale vaskkübara pähe ja pani temale raudrüü selga.

³⁸And Saul clothed David with his dress, and put a helmet of bronze upon his head, and clothed him with a corselet.

³⁹Ja Taavet pani tema mõõga enesele riiete peale vööle ja katsus kõndida, ta ei olnud ju nendega harjunud; aga Taavet ütles Saulile: 'Ei mina saa nendega käia, sest ma pole harjunud.' Ja Taavet võttis need oma seljast ära.

³⁹And David girded his sword upon his dress, and endeavoured to go; for he had not yet tried [it]. And David said to Saul, I cannot go in these; for I have never tried [them]. And David put them off him.

⁴⁰Siis ta võttis oma kepi kätte ja valis enesele ojast viis siledat kivi ning pani need karjasepauna, mis oli tal lingukivikotiks; tal oli ling käes ja ta astus vilistile vastu.

⁴⁰And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the shepherd's bag that he had, into the pocket; and his sling was in his hand. And he drew near to the Philistine.

⁴¹Ja vilist tuli ning ligines üha Taavetile, ja mees, kes kandis ta kilpi, tema ees.

⁴¹And the Philistine came on and approached David; and the man that bore the shield was before him.

⁴²Vilist vaatas ja nägi Taavetit, aga ei pannud teda millekski, sest too oli noor, punapalgeline ja kauni välimusega.

⁴²And when the Philistine looked about and saw David, he disdained him; for he was a youth, and ruddy, and besides of a beautiful countenance.

⁴³Ja vilist ütles Taavetile: 'Kas ma olen koer, et sa tuled mu juurde kepiga?' Ja vilist sajatas Taavetit oma jumalate nimel.

⁴³And the Philistine said to David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.

⁴⁴Siis ütles vilist Taavetile: 'Tule mu juurde, ja ma annan su liha lindudele taeva all ja loomadele väljal!'

⁴⁴And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the fowls of the heavens and to the beasts of the field.

⁴⁵Aga Taavet ütles vilistile: 'Sina tuled mu juurde mõõga, piigi ja odaga, aga mina tulen su juurde vägede Issanda, Iisraeli väehulkade Jumala nimel, keda sa oled teotanud.

⁴⁵And David said to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with sword, and with spear, and with javelin; but I come to thee in the name of Jehovah of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.

⁴⁶Täna annab Issand sind minu kätte, et ma su maha lööksin ja su pea raiuksin; ja ma annan vilistite sõjaväe laibad täna lindudele taeva all ja metsloomadele maa peal, ja kogu maailm saab teada, et Iisraelil on Jumal!

⁴⁶This day will Jehovah deliver thee up into my hand; and I will smite thee, and take thy head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the camp of the Philistines this day to the fowl of the heavens and to the wild beasts of the earth. And all the earth shall know that Israel has a God;

⁴⁷Ja kogu see väehulk saab teada, et Issand ei päästa mitte mõõga ega piigi abil, sest see on Issanda võitlus ja tema annab teid meie kätte!'

⁴⁷and all this congregation shall know that Jehovah saves not with sword and spear; for the battle is Jehovah's, and he will give you into our hands.

⁴⁸Ja sündis, kui vilist tõusis ja tuli ning lähenes, et Taavetit kohata, siis ruttas Taavet ja jooksis rinde poole vilistile vastu.

⁴⁸And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came and advanced to meet David, that David hasted, and ran towards the ranks to meet the Philistine.

⁴⁹Ja Taavet pistis käe pauna, võttis sealt kivi ja lingutas ning tabas vilistit otsaette; kivi tungis laupa ja ta langes silmili maha.

⁴⁹And David put his hand into the bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, and the stone sank into his forehead; and he fell on his face to the earth.

⁵⁰Nõnda sai Taavet vilistist jagu lingu ja kiviga; ta lõi vilisti maha ja surmas tema; aga Taavetil ei olnud mõõka käes.

⁵⁰So David overcame the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and smote the Philistine and killed him; and there was no sword in the hand of David.

⁵¹Siis Taavet jooksis ning astus vilisti juurde ja võttis tema mõõga, tõmbas tupest ja surmas tema ning raius sellega ta pea maha. Ja kui vilistid nägid, et nende kangelane oli surnud, siis nad põgenesid.

⁵¹And David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of its sheath, and killed him completely, and cut off his head with it. And when the Philistines saw that their hero was dead, they fled.

⁵²Aga Iisraeli ja Juuda mehed tõusid ning tõstsid sõjakisa ja nad ajasid vilisteid taga kuni Gati teelahkmeni ja kuni Ekroni väravateni; ja mahalöödud vilistid langesid Saaraimi teele, kuni Gati ja Ekronini.

⁵²And the men of Israel and of Judah arose, and shouted, and pursued the Philistines, until thou comest to the ravine and to the gates of Ekron. And the wounded of the Philistines fell down on the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath, and to Ekron.

⁵³Siis lõpetasid Iisraeli lapsed vilistite tagaajamise, pöördusid tagasi ja riisusid nende leerid paljaks.

⁵³And the children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they pillaged their camps.

⁵⁴Ja Taavet võttis vilisti pea ning viis selle Jeruusalemma, aga tema sõjariistad pani ta oma telki.

⁵⁴And David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent.

⁵⁵Kui Saul nägi Taavetit vilisti vastu välja minevat, küsis ta väepealik Abnerilt: 'Kelle poeg see noor mees on, Abner?' Ja Abner vastas: 'Nii tõesti kui sa elad, kuningas, ma ei tea.'

⁵⁵And when Saul saw David go forth against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the captain of the host, Abner, whose son is this young man? And Abner said, As thy soul liveth, O king, I cannot tell.

⁵⁶Siis ütles kuningas: 'Sa küsi, kelle poeg see noor mees on!'

⁵⁶And the king said, Inquire thou whose son this youth is.

⁵⁷Ja kui Taavet vilistit maha löömast tagasi tuli, siis võttis Abner tema ja viis Sauli ette; ja vilisti pea oli tal käes.

⁵⁷And as David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.

⁵⁸Ja Saul küsis temalt: 'Kelle poeg sa oled, noor mees?' Ja Taavet vastas: 'Ma olen su sulase, petlemlase Iisai poeg.'

⁵⁸And Saul said to him, Whose son art thou, young man? And David said, I am the son of thy servant Jesse the Beth-lehemite.
