David 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.” Then David took them off.

And David H1732 girded H2296 (QalImpf) his sword H2719 upon his armour, H4055 and he assayed H2974 (HiphImpf) to go; H3212 (QalInf) for he had not proved H5254 (PielPerf) [it].

And David is stronger than the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smiteth the Philistine, and putteth him to death, and there is no sword in the hand of David,

Then the princes of the Philistines went out; and as often as they went out, David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul, so that his name was highly esteemed.

Then the princes H8269 of the Philistines H6430 went forth: H3318 (QalImpf) and it came to pass, after H1767 they went forth, H3318 (QalInf) [that] David H1732 behaved himself more wisely H7919 (QalPerf) than all the servants H5650 of Saul; H7586 so that his name H8034 was much H3966 set by. H3365 (QalImpf)

And the princes of the Philistines come out, and it cometh to pass from the time of their coming out, David hath acted more wisely than any of the servants of Saul, and his name is very precious.

There was war again. David went out and fought with the Philistines, and killed them with a great slaughter; and they fled before him.

And there was war H4421 again: H3254 (HiphImpf) and David H1732 went out, H3318 (QalImpf) and fought H3898 (NiphImpf) with the Philistines, H6430 and slew H5221 (HiphImpf) them with a great H1419 slaughter; H4347 and they fled H5127 (QalImpf) from H6440 him.

And there addeth to be war, and David goeth out and fighteth against the Philistines, and smiteth among them-a great smiting, and they flee from his face.

But if I say this to the boy, ‘Behold, the arrows are beyond you,’ then go your way, for Yahweh has sent you away.

But if I say H559 (QalImpf) thus unto the young man, H5958 Behold, the arrows H2671 [are] beyond H1973 thee; go thy way: H3212 (QalImpv) for the Lord H3068 hath sent thee away. H7971 (PielPerf)

And if thus I say to the young man, Lo, the arrows are beyond thee,-go, for Jehovah hath sent thee away;

When the boy had come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the boy, and said, “Isn’t the arrow beyond you?”

And when the lad H5288 was come H935 (QalImpf) to the place H4725 of the arrow H2678 which Jonathan H3083 had shot, H3384 (QalPerf) Jonathan H3083 cried H7121 (QalImpf) after H310 the lad, H5288 and said, H559 (QalImpf) [Is] not the arrow H2678 beyond H1973 thee?

And the youth cometh unto the place of the arrow which Jonathan hath shot, and Jonathan calleth after the youth, and saith, ‘Is not the arrow beyond thee?’

He struck Nob, the city of the priests, with the edge of the sword—both men and women, children and nursing babies, and cattle, donkeys, and sheep, with the edge of the sword.

And Nob, H5011 the city H5892 of the priests, H3548 smote H5221 (HiphPerf) he with the edge H6310 of the sword, H2719 both men H376 and women, H802 children H5768 and sucklings, H3243 (QalActPtc) and oxen, H7794 and asses, H2543 and sheep, H7716 with the edge H6310 of the sword. H2719

and Nob, the city of the priests, he hath smitten by the mouth of the sword, from man even unto woman, from infant even unto suckling, and ox, and ass, and sheep, by the mouth of the sword.

See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking places where he hides himself; and come again to me with certainty, and I will go with you. It shall happen, if he is in the land, that I will search him out among all the thousands of Judah.”

See H7200 (QalImpv) therefore, and take knowledge H3045 (QalImpv) of all the lurking places H4224 where he hideth H2244 (HithImpf) himself, and come ye again H7725 (QalPerf) to me with the certainty, H3559 (NiphPtc) and I will go H1980 (QalPerf) with you: and it shall come to pass, if he be H3426 in the land, H776 that I will search H2664 (PielPerf) him out throughout all the thousands H505 of Judah. H3063

And see and know of all the hiding-places where he hideth himself, and ye have turned back unto me prepared, and I have gone with you, and it hath been, if he is in the land, that I have searched him out through all the thousands of Judah.’

He said to his men, “Yahweh forbid that I should do this thing to my lord, Yahweh’s anointed, to stretch out my hand against him, since he is Yahweh’s anointed.”

And he said H559 (QalImpf) unto his men, H582 The Lord H3068 forbid H2486 that I should do H6213 (QalImpf) this thing H1697 unto my master, H113 the Lord’s H3068 anointed, H4899 to stretch forth H7971 (QalInf) mine hand H3027 against him, seeing he [is] the anointed H4899 of the Lord. H3068

and he saith to his men, ‘Far be it from me, by Jehovah; I do not do this thing to my lord-to the anointed of Jehovah-to put forth my hand against him, for the anointed of Jehovah he is.’

So David checked his men with these words, and didn’t allow them to rise against Saul. Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.

So David H1732 stayed H8156 (PielImpf) his servants H582 with these words, H1697 and suffered H5414 (QalPerf) them not to rise H6965 (QalInf) against Saul. H7586 But Saul H7586 rose up H6965 (QalPerf) out of the cave, H4631 and went H3212 (QalImpf) on [his] way. H1870

And David subdueth his men by words, and hath not permitted them to rise against Saul; and Saul hath risen from the cave, and goeth on the way;

He said to David, “You are more righteous than I; for you have done good to me, whereas I have done evil to you.

And he said H559 (QalImpf) to David, H1732 Thou [art] more righteous H6662 than I: for thou hast rewarded H1580 (QalPerf) me good, H2896 whereas I have rewarded H1580 (QalPerf) thee evil. H7451

And he saith unto David, ‘More righteous thou art than I; for thou hast done me good, and I have done thee evil;

Shall I then take my bread, my water, and my meat that I have killed for my shearers, and give it to men who I don’t know where they come from?”

Shall I then take H3947 (QalPerf) my bread, H3899 and my water, H4325 and my flesh H2878 that I have killed H2873 (QalPerf) for my shearers, H1494 (QalActPtc) and give H5414 (QalPerf) [it] unto men, H582 whom I know H3045 (QalPerf) not whence they [be]?

and I have taken my bread, and my water, and my flesh, which I slaughtered for my shearers, and have given it to men whom I have not known whence they are!’

Now therefore know and consider what you will do; for evil is determined against our master and against all his house, for he is such a worthless fellow that one can’t speak to him.”

Now therefore know H3045 (QalImpv) and consider H7200 (QalImpv) what thou wilt do; H6213 (QalImpf) for evil H7451 is determined H3615 (QalPerf) against our master, H113 and against all his household: H1004 for he [is such] a son H1121 of Belial, H1100 that [a man] cannot speak H1696 (PielInf) to him.

‘And, now, know and consider what thou dost; for evil hath been determined against our lord, and against all his house, and he is too much a son of worthlessness to be spoken to.’

Please forgive the trespass of your servant. For Yahweh will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord fights Yahweh’s battles. Evil will not be found in you all your days.

I pray thee, forgive H5375 (QalImpv) the trespass H6588 of thine handmaid: H519 for the Lord H3068 will certainly H6213 (QalInf) make H6213 (QalImpf) my lord H113 a sure H539 (NiphPtc) house; H1004 because my lord H113 fighteth H3898 (NiphPtc) the battles H4421 of the Lord, H3068 and evil H7451 hath not been found H4672 (NiphImpf) in thee [all] thy days. H3117

‘Bear, I pray thee, with the transgression of thy handmaid, for Jehovah doth certainly make to my lord a stedfast house; for the battles of Jehovah hath my lord fought, and evil is not found in thee all thy days.

Now therefore, please let my lord the king hear the words of his servant. If it is so that Yahweh has stirred you up against me, let him accept an offering. But if it is the children of men, they are cursed before Yahweh; for they have driven me out today that I shouldn’t cling to Yahweh’s inheritance, saying, ‘Go, serve other gods!’

Now therefore, I pray thee, let my lord H113 the king H4428 hear H8085 (QalImpf) the words H1697 of his servant. H5650 If the Lord H3068 have stirred thee up H5496 (HiphPerf) against me, let him accept H7306 (HiphImpf) an offering: H4503 but if [they be] the children H1121 of men, H120 cursed H779 (QalPasPtc) [be] they before H6440 the Lord; H3068 for they have driven H1644 (PielPerf) me out this day H3117 from abiding H5596 (HithInf) in the inheritance H5159 of the Lord, H3068 saying, H559 (QalInf) Go, H3212 (QalImpv) serve H5647 (QalImpv) other H312 gods. H430

And, now, let, I pray thee, my lord the king hear the words of his servant: if Jehovah hath moved thee against me, let Him accept a present; and if the sons of men-cursed are they before Jehovah, for they have cast me out to-day from being admitted into the inheritance of Jehovah, saying, Go, serve other gods.

Then Saul fell immediately his full length on the earth, and was terrified, because of Samuel’s words. There was no strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all day long or all night long.

Then Saul H7586 fell H5307 (QalImpf) straightway H4116 (PielImpf) all H4393 along H6967 on the earth, H776 and was sore H3966 afraid, H3372 (QalImpf) because of the words H1697 of Samuel: H8050 and there was no strength H3581 in him; for he had eaten H398 (QalPerf) no bread H3899 all the day, H3117 nor all the night. H3915

And Saul hasteth and falleth-the fulness of his stature-to the earth, and feareth greatly because of the words of Samuel; also power was not in him, for he had not eaten bread all the day, and all the night.
