II Samuel 4

Και οτε ηκουσεν ο υιος του Σαουλ οτι ο Αβενηρ απεθανεν εν Χεβρων, αι χειρες αυτου ενεκρωθησαν, και παντες οι Ισραηλιται συνεταραχθησαν.

And when Saul's son heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands were feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.

Ειχε δε ο υιος του Σαουλ δυο ανδρας, οιτινες ησαν οπλαργηγοι, το ονομα του ενος Βαανα, και το ονομα του αλλου Ρηχαβ, υιοι Ριμμων του Βηρωθαιου, εκ των υιων Βενιαμιν διοτι και η Βηρωθ ελογιζετο του Βενιαμιν

And Saul's son had two men that were captains of bands: the name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon a Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin: (for Beeroth also was reckoned to Benjamin:

οι δε Βηρωθαιοι ειχον φυγει εις Γιτθαιμ και ησαν εκει παροικουντες εως της ημερας ταυτης.

And the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and were sojourners there until this day.)

Ιωναθαν δε, ο υιος του Σαουλ, ειχεν υιον βεβλαμμενον τους ποδας. Ητο ηλικιας πεντε ετων οτε ηλθον αι αγγελιαι εξ Ιεζραηλ περι του Σαουλ και Ιωναθαν, και εσηκωσεν αυτον τροφος αυτου και εφυγεν ενω δε εσπευδε να φυγη, επεσεν αυτος και εχωλωθη το δε ονομα αυτου Μεμφιβοσθε.

And Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son that was lame of his feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel, and his nurse took him up, and fled: and it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became lame. And his name was Mephibosheth.

Και υπηγαν οι υιοι Ριμμων του Βηρωθαιου, Ρηχαβ και Βαανα, και εις το καυμα της ημερας εισηλθον εις την οικιαν του Ις−βοσθε οστις εκοιτετο επι κλινης το μεσημεριον

And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went, and came about the heat of the day to the house of Ish–bosheth, who lay on a bed at noon.

και εισηλθον εκει εως του μεσου της οικιας, ως δια να λαβωσι σιτον και εκτυπησαν αυτον υπο την πεμπτην πλευραν και ο Ρηχαβ και Βαανα ο αδελφος αυτου διεσωθησαν.

And they came thither into the midst of the house, as though they would have fetched wheat; and they smote him under the fifth rib: and Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.

Διοτι οτε εισηλθον εις την οικιαν, εκεινος εκοιτετο επι της κλινης αυτου εντος του κοιτωνος αυτου και εκτυπησαν αυτον και εθανατωσαν αυτον και απεκοψαν την κεφαλην αυτου, και λαβοντες την κεφαλην αυτου, ανεχωρησαν οδοιπορουντες δια της πεδιαδος ολην την νυκτα.

For when they came into the house, he lay on his bed in his bedchamber, and they smote him, and slew him, and beheaded him, and took his head, and gat them away through the plain all night.

Και εφερον την κεφαλην του Ις−βοσθε προς τον Δαβιδ εις Χεβρων και ειπον προς τον βασιλεα, Ιδου, η κεφαλη του Ις−βοσθε, υιου του Σαουλ του εχθρου σου, οστις εζητει την ζωην σου και ο Κυριος εδωκεν εκδικησιν εις τον κυριον μου τον βασιλεα την ημεραν ταυτην, απο του Σαουλ και απο του σπερματος αυτου.

And they brought the head of Ish–bosheth unto David to Hebron, and said to the king, Behold the head of Ish–bosheth the son of Saul thine enemy, which sought thy life; and the LORD hath avenged my lord the king this day of Saul, and of his seed.

Απεκριθη δε ο Δαβιδ προς τον Ρηχαβ και προς Βαανα τον αδελφον αυτου, τους υιους Ριμμων του Βηρωθαιου, και ειπε προς αυτους, Ζη Κυριος, οστις ελυτρωσε την ψυχην μου απο πασης στενοχωριας

And David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said unto them, As the LORD liveth, who hath redeemed my soul out of all adversity,

εκεινον, οστις απηγγειλε προς εμε, λεγων, Ιδου, απεθανεν ο Σαουλ, και εστοχαζετο εαυτον μηνυτην αγαθης αγγελιας, επιασα αυτον και εθανατωσα αυτον εν Σικλαγ, αντι να βραβευσω αυτον δια την αγγελιαν αυτου

When one told me, saying, Behold, Saul is dead, thinking to have brought good tidings, I took hold of him, and slew him in Ziklag, who thought that I would have given him a reward for his tidings:

και ποσω μαλλον ανθρωπους πονηρους, φονευσαντας ανδρα δικαιον εν τη οικια αυτου επι της κλινης αυτου; τωρα λοιπον δεν θελω εκζητησει το αιμα αυτου εκ των χειρων σας και δεν θελω σας εξολοθρευσει απο της γης;

How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house upon his bed? shall I not therefore now require his blood of your hand, and take you away from the earth?

Και προσεταξεν ο Δαβιδ τους νεους, και εθανατωσαν αυτους και εκοψαν τας χειρας αυτων και τους ποδας αυτων και εκρεμασαν αυτα επι το υδροστασιον εν Χεβρων την δε κεφαλην του Ις−βοσθε ελαβον, και εθαψαν εν τω ταφω του Αβενηρ εν Χεβρων.

And David commanded his young men, and they slew them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up over the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ish–bosheth, and buried it in the sepulchre of Abner in Hebron.
