And when the Philistine H6430 looked about, H5027 (HiphImpf) and saw H7200 (QalImpf) David, H1732 he disdained H959 (QalImpf) him: for he was [but] a youth, H5288 and ruddy, H132 and of a fair H3303 countenance. H4758

And when the Philistines H6430 saw H7200 (QalImpf) their champion H1368 was dead, H4191 (QalPerf) they fled. H5127 (QalImpf)

H5288 And Abner H74 said, H559 (QalImpf) [As] thy soul H5315 liveth, H2416 O king, H4428 I cannot H518 tell. H3045 (QalPerf)

And when Saul seeth David going out to meet the Philistine, he hath said unto Abner, head of the host, ‘Whose son is this-the youth, Abner?’ and Abner saith, ‘Thy soul liveth, O king, I have not known.’

And I will go out H3318 (QalImpf) and stand H5975 (QalPerf) beside H3027 my father H1 in the field H7704 where thou [art], and I will commune H1696 (PielImpf) with my father H1 of thee; and what H4100 I see, H7200 (QalPerf) that I will tell H5046 (HiphPerf) thee.

and I-I go out, and have stood by the side of my father in the field where thou art, and I speak of thee unto my father, and have seen what is coming, and have declared to thee.’

for he put his life in his hand and struck the Philistine, and Yahweh worked a great victory for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced. Why then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?”

For he did put H7760 (QalImpf) his life H5315 in his hand, H3709 and slew H5221 (HiphImpf) the Philistine, H6430 and the Lord H3068 wrought H6213 (QalImpf) a great H1419 salvation H8668 for all Israel: H3478 thou sawest H7200 (QalPerf) [it], and didst rejoice: H8055 (QalImpf) wherefore then wilt thou sin H2398 (QalImpf) against innocent H5355 blood, H1818 to slay H4191 (HiphInf) David H1732 without a cause? H2600

And Saul H7586 sent H7971 (QalImpf) messengers H4397 to take H3947 (QalInf) David: H1732 and when they saw H7200 (QalImpf) the company H3862 of the prophets H5030 prophesying, H5012 (NiphPtc) and Samuel H8050 standing H5975 (QalActPtc) [as] appointed H5324 (NiphPtc) over them, the Spirit H7307 of God H430 was upon the messengers H4397 of Saul, H7586 and they also prophesied.

H251 Therefore he cometh H935 (QalPerf) not unto the king’s H4428 table. H7979

and he saith, Send me away, I pray thee, for a family sacrifice we have in the city, and my brother himself hath given command to me, and now, if I have found grace in thine eyes, let me go away, I pray thee, and see my brethren; therefore he hath not come unto the table of the king.’

Moreover, my father, behold, yes, see the skirt of your robe in my hand; for in that I cut off the skirt of your robe and didn’t kill you, know and see that there is neither evil nor disobedience in my hand. I have not sinned against you, though you hunt for my life to take it.

Moreover, my father, H1 see, H7200 (QalImpv) yea, see H7200 (QalImpv) the skirt H3671 of thy robe H4598 in my hand: H3027 for in that I cut off H3772 (QalInf) the skirt H3671 of thy robe, H4598 and killed H2026 (QalPerf) thee not, know H3045 (QalImpv) thou and see H7200 (QalImpv) that [there is] neither evil H7451 nor transgression H6588 in mine hand, H3027 and I have not sinned H2398 (QalPerf) against thee; yet thou huntest H6658 (QalActPtc) my soul H5315 to take H3947 (QalInf) it.

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.”

And Saul H7586 pitched H2583 (QalImpf) in the hill H1389 of Hachilah, H2444 which [is] before H6440 Jeshimon, H3452 by the way.

And Saul encampeth in the height of Hachilah, which is on the front of the desert, by the way, and David is abiding in the wilderness, and he seeth that Saul hath come after him in to the wilderness;

Then David arose and came to the place where Saul had encamped; and David saw the place where Saul lay, with Abner the son of Ner, the captain of his army. Saul lay within the place of the wagons, and the people were encamped around him.

And David H1732 arose, H6965 (QalImpf) and came H935 (QalImpf) to the place H4725 where Saul H7586 had pitched: H2583 (QalPerf) and David H1732 beheld H7200 (QalImpf) the place H4725 where Saul H7586 lay, H7901 (QalPerf) and Abner H74 the son H1121 of Ner, H5369 the captain H8269 of his host: H6635 and Saul H7586 lay H7901 (QalActPtc) in the trench, H4570 and the people H5971 pitched H2583 (QalActPtc) round about H5439 him.

And David taketh the spear, and the cruse of water at the pillow of Saul, and they go away, and there is none seeing, and there is none knowing, and there is none awaking, for all of them are sleeping, for a deep sleep from Jehovah hath fallen upon them.

This thing isn’t good that you have done. As Yahweh lives, you are worthy to die, because you have not kept watch over your lord, Yahweh’s anointed. Now see where the king’s spear is, and the jar of water that was at his head.”

This thing H1697 [is] not good H2896 that thou hast done. H6213 (QalPerf) [As] the Lord H3068 liveth, H2416 ye [are] worthy H1121 to die, H4194 because ye have not kept H8104 (QalPerf) your master, H113 the Lord’s H3068 anointed. H4899 And now see H7200 (QalImpv) where the king’s H4428 spear H2595 [is], and the cruse H6835 of water H4325 that [was] at his bolster. H4763
