¹Now the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle; and they were gathered together at Socoh, which belongs to Judah, and encamped between Socoh and Azekah, in Ephesdammim.

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

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

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

³The Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.

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

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

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

⁵He had a helmet of brass on his head, and he was clad with a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of brass.

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

⁶He had brass shin armor on his legs, and a javelin of brass between his shoulders.

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

⁷The staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam; and his spear’s head weighed six hundred shekels of iron: and his shield bearer went before him.

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

⁸He stood and cried to the armies of Israel, and said to them, “Why have you come out to set your battle in array? Am I not a Philistine, and you servants to Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me.

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!

⁹If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, then will we be your servants; but if I prevail against him, and kill him, then you will be our servants, and serve us.”

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!'

¹⁰The Philistine said, “I defy the armies of Israel this day! Give me a man, that we may fight together!”

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

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

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

¹²Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Judah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons: and the man was an old man in the days of Saul, stricken among men.

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.

¹³The three eldest sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.

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

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

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

¹⁵Now David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father’s sheep at Bethlehem.

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

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

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

¹⁷Jesse said to David his son, “Now take for your brothers an ephah 1 ephah is about 22 litres or about 2/3 of a bushel of this parched grain, and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp to your brothers;

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!

¹⁸and bring these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand, and see how your brothers are doing, and bring back news.”

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

¹⁹Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel, were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.

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

²⁰David rose up early in the morning, and left the sheep with a keeper, and took, and went, as Jesse had commanded him; and he came to the place of the wagons, as the army which was going forth to the fight shouted for the battle.

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.

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

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

²²David left his baggage in the hand of the keeper of the baggage, and ran to the army, and came and greeted his brothers.

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

²³As 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.

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

²⁴All the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were terrified.

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

²⁵The men of Israel said, “Have you seen this man who has come up? He has surely come up to defy Israel. It shall be, that the man who kills him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father’s house free in Israel.”

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.'

²⁶David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, “What shall be done to the man who kills 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?”

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?'

²⁷The people answered him in this way, saying, “So shall it be done to the man who kills him.”

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

²⁸Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab’s anger was kindled against David, and he said, “Why have you come down? With whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride, and the naughtiness of your heart; for you have come down that you might see the battle.”

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.'

²⁹David said, “What have I now done? Is there not a cause?”

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

³⁰He turned away from him toward another, and spoke like that again; and the people answered him again the same way.

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

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

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

³²David said to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail because of him. Your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.”

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

³³Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.”

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.'

³⁴David said to Saul, “Your servant was keeping his father’s sheep; and when a lion or a bear came, and took a lamb out of the flock,

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

³⁵I went out after him, and struck him, and rescued it out of his mouth. When he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and struck him, and killed him.

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.

³⁶Your servant struck both the lion and the bear. This uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, since he has defied the armies of the living God.”

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.'

³⁷David said, “Yahweh 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.” Saul said to David, “Go; and Yahweh shall be with you.”

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!'

³⁸Saul dressed David with his clothing. He put a helmet of brass on his head, and he clad him with a coat of mail.

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

³⁹David strapped his sword on his clothing, and he tried to move; for he had not tested it. David said to Saul, “I can’t go with these; for I have not tested them.” David took them off.

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.

⁴⁰He took his staff in his hand, and chose for himself five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the shepherd’s bag which he had, even in his wallet. His sling was in his hand; and he drew near to the Philistine.

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.

⁴¹The Philistine came on and drew near to David; and the man who bore the shield went before him.

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

⁴²When the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and withal of a fair face.

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

⁴³The Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?” The Philistine cursed David by his gods.

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

⁴⁴The Philistine said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the sky, and to the animals of the field.”

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

⁴⁵Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a javelin: but I come to you in the name of Yahweh of Armies, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.

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.

⁴⁶Today, Yahweh will deliver you into my hand. I will strike you, and take your head from off you. I will give the dead bodies of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the sky, and to the wild animals of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel,

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!

⁴⁷and that all this assembly may know that Yahweh doesn’t save with sword and spear: for the battle is Yahweh’s, and he will give you into our hand.”

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!'

⁴⁸It happened, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew near to meet David, that David hurried, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.

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

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

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

⁵⁰So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine, and killed him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.

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

⁵¹Then David ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of its sheath, and killed him, and cut off his head therewith. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.

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.

⁵²The men of Israel and of Judah arose, and shouted, and pursued the Philistines, until you come to Gai, and to the gates of Ekron. The wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath, and to Ekron.

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.

⁵³The children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they plundered their camp.

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

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

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

⁵⁵When Saul saw David go forth against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the captain of the army, “Abner, whose son is this youth?” Abner said, “As your soul lives, O king, I can’t tell.”

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.'

⁵⁶The king said, “Inquire whose son the young man is!”

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

⁵⁷As 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.

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

⁵⁸Saul said to him, “Whose son are you, you young man?” David answered, “I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite.”

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