Tarry H3885 (QalImpv) this night, H3915 and it shall be in the morning, H1242 that if he will perform unto thee the part of a kinsman, H1350 (QalImpf) well; H2896 let him do the kinsman’s part: H1350 (QalImpf) but if he will H2654 (QalImpf) not do the part of a kinsman H1350 (QalInf) to thee, then will I do the part of a kinsman H1350 (QalPerf) to thee, as the Lord H3068 liveth: H2416 lie down H7901 (QalImpv) until the morning.

H1697 So the woman H802 abode, H3427 (QalImpf) and gave her son H1121 suck H3243 (HiphImpf) until she weaned H1580 (QalInf) him.

No, my sons; for it is not a good report that I hear! You make Yahweh’s people disobey.

και περιεποιησατο σαουλ και πας ο λαος τον αγαγ ζωντα και τα αγαθα των ποιμνιων και των βουκολιων και των εδεσματων και των αμπελωνων και παντων των αγαθων και ουκ εβουλετο αυτα εξολεθρευσαι και παν εργον ητιμωμενον και εξουδενωμενον εξωλεθρευσαν

Samuel said, “Has Yahweh as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying Yahweh’s voice? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to listen than the fat of rams.

And Samuel H8050 said, H559 (QalImpf) Hath the Lord H3068 as great delight H2656 in burnt offerings H5930 and sacrifices, H2077 As in obeying H8085 (QalInf) the voice H6963 of the Lord? H3068 Behold, to obey H8085 (QalInf) is better H2896 than sacrifice, H2077 And to hearken H7181 (HiphInf) than the fat H2459 of rams. H352

και ειπεν σαμουηλ ει θελητον τω κυριω ολοκαυτωματα και θυσιαι ως το ακουσαι φωνης κυριου ιδου ακοη υπερ θυσιαν αγαθη και η επακροασις υπερ στεαρ κριων

και ειπεν προς αυτον σαμουηλ διερρηξεν κυριος την βασιλειαν ισραηλ εκ χειρος σου σημερον και δωσει αυτην τω πλησιον σου τω αγαθω υπερ σε

He sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, with a handsome face and good appearance. Yahweh said, “Arise! Anoint him, for this is he.”

And he sent, H7971 (QalImpf) and brought him in. H935 (HiphImpf) Now he was ruddy, H132 and withal H5973 of a beautiful H3303 countenance,° H5869 and goodly H2896 to look to. H7210 And the Lord H3068 said, H559 (QalImpf) Arise, H6965 (QalImpv) anoint H4886 (QalImpv) him: for this is he.

και απεστειλεν και εισηγαγεν αυτον και ουτος πυρρακης μετα καλλους οφθαλμων και αγαθος ορασει κυριω και ειπεν κυριος προς σαμουηλ αναστα και χρισον τον δαυιδ οτι ουτος αγαθος εστιν

Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to him, “Don’t let the king sin against his servant, against David; because he has not sinned against you, and because his works have been very good toward you;

And Jonathan H3083 spake H1696 (PielImpf) good H2896 of David H1732 unto Saul H7586 his father, H1 and said H559 (QalImpf) unto him, Let not the king H4428 sin H2398 (QalImpf) against his servant, H5650 against David; H1732 because he hath not sinned H2398 (QalPerf) against thee, and because his works H4639 have been to thee-ward very H3966 good: H2896

και ελαλησεν ιωναθαν περι δαυιδ αγαθα προς σαουλ τον πατερα αυτου και ειπεν προς αυτον μη αμαρτησατω ο βασιλευς εις τον δουλον σου δαυιδ οτι ουχ ημαρτηκεν εις σε και τα ποιηματα αυτου αγαθα σφοδρα

If he says, ‘It is well,’ your servant shall have peace; but if he is angry, then know that evil is determined by him.

If he say H559 (QalImpf) thus, It is well; H2896 thy servant H5650 shall have peace: H7965 but if he be very H2734 (QalInf) wroth, H2734 (QalImpf) then be sure H3045 (QalImpv) that evil H7451 is determined H3615 (QalPerf) by him.

εαν ταδε ειπη αγαθως ειρηνη τω δουλω σου και εαν σκληρως αποκριθη σοι γνωθι οτι συντετελεσται η κακια παρ αυτου

Jonathan said to David, “By Yahweh, the God of Israel, when I have sounded out my father about this time tomorrow, or the third day, behold, if there is good toward David, won’t I then send to you and disclose it to you?

And Jonathan H3083 said H559 (QalImpf) unto David, H1732 O Lord H3068 God H430 of Israel, H3478 when I have sounded^§ H2713 (QalImpf) my father H1 about to morrow H4279 any time, H6256 or the third H7992 day, and, behold, if there be good H2895 (QalPerf) toward David, H1732 and I then send H7971 (QalImpf) not unto thee, and shew H1540 (QalPerf) H241 it thee;^§

1 Samuel 20:12a Heb. searched
1 Samuel 20:12b Heb. uncover thine ear

και ειπεν ιωναθαν προς δαυιδ κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ οιδεν οτι ανακρινω τον πατερα μου ως αν ο καιρος τρισσως και ιδου αγαθον η περι δαυιδ και ου μη αποστειλω προς σε εις αγρον

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

^[24:18] και ειπεν σαουλ προς δαυιδ δικαιος συ υπερ εμε οτι συ ανταπεδωκας μοι αγαθα εγω δε ανταπεδωκα σοι κακα

You have declared today how you have dealt well with me, because when Yahweh had delivered me up into your hand, you didn’t kill me.

And thou hast shewed H5046 (HiphPerf) this day H3117 how that thou hast dealt H6213 (QalPerf) well H2896 with me: forasmuch as when the Lord H3068 had delivered^§ H5462 (PielPerf) me into thine hand, H3027 thou killedst H2026 (QalPerf) me not.

1 Samuel 24:18 Heb. shut up

^[24:19] και συ απηγγειλας μοι σημερον α εποιησας μοι αγαθα ως απεκλεισεν με κυριος σημερον εις χειρας σου και ουκ απεκτεινας με

For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him go away unharmed? Therefore may Yahweh reward you good for that which you have done to me today.

For if a man H376 find H4672 (QalImpf) his enemy, H341 (QalActPtc) will he let him go H7971 (PielPerf) well H2896 away? H1870 wherefore the Lord H3068 reward H7999 (PielImpf) thee good H2896 for that thou hast done H6213 (QalPerf) unto me this day. H3117

^[24:20] και οτι ει ευροιτο τις τον εχθρον αυτου εν θλιψει και εκπεμψαι αυτον εν οδω αγαθη και κυριος ανταποτεισει αυτω αγαθα καθως πεποιηκας σημερον

Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail. This woman was intelligent and had a beautiful face; but the man was surly and evil in his doings. He was of the house of Caleb.

Now the name H8034 of the man H376 was Nabal; H5037 and the name H8034 of his wife H802 Abigail: H26 and she was a woman H802 of good H2896 understanding, H7922 and of a beautiful H3303 countenance: H8389 but the man H376 was churlish H7186 and evil H7451 in his doings; H4611 and he was of the house of Caleb. H3614

και ονομα τω ανθρωπω ναβαλ και ονομα τη γυναικι αυτου αβιγαια και η γυνη αυτου αγαθη συνεσει και καλη τω ειδει σφοδρα και ο ανθρωπος σκληρος και πονηρος εν επιτηδευμασιν και ο ανθρωπος κυνικος

Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let the young men find favor in your eyes, for we come on a good day. Please give whatever comes to your hand to your servants and to your son David.’”

Ask H7592 (QalImpv) thy young men, H5288 and they will shew H5046 (HiphImpf) thee. Wherefore let the young men H5288 find H4672 (QalImpf) favour H2580 in thine eyes: H5869 for we come H935 (QalPerf) in a good H2896 day: H3117 give, H5414 (QalImpv) I pray thee, whatsoever cometh H4672 (QalImpf) to thine hand H3027 unto thy servants, H5650 and to thy son H1121 David. H1732

ερωτησον τα παιδαρια σου και απαγγελουσιν σοι και ευρετωσαν τα παιδαρια χαριν εν οφθαλμοις σου οτι εφ ημεραν αγαθην ηκομεν δος δη ο εαν ευρη η χειρ σου τω υιω σου τω δαυιδ

But the men were very good to us, and we were not harmed, and we didn’t miss anything as long as we went with them, when we were in the fields.

But the men H582 were very H3966 good H2896 unto us, and we were not hurt,^§ H3637 (HophPerf) neither missed H6485 (QalPerf) we any thing, H3972 as long as H3117 we were conversant H1980 (HithPerf) with them, when we were in the fields: H7704

1 Samuel 25:15 Heb. shamed

και οι ανδρες αγαθοι ημιν σφοδρα ουκ απεκωλυσαν ημας ουδε ενετειλαντο ημιν πασας τας ημερας ας ημεν παρ αυτοις και εν τω ειναι ημας εν αγρω

Now David had said, “Surely in vain I have kept all that this fellow has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained to him. He has returned me evil for good.

Now David H1732 had said, H559 (QalPerf) Surely in vain H8267 have I kept H8104 (QalPerf) all that this H2088 fellow hath in the wilderness, H4057 so that nothing H3972 was missed H6485 (NiphPerf) of all that pertained unto him: and he hath requited H7725 (HiphImpf) me evil H7451 for good. H2896

και δαυιδ ειπεν ισως εις αδικον πεφυλακα παντα τα αυτου εν τη ερημω και ουκ ενετειλαμεθα λαβειν εκ παντων των αυτου ουθεν και ανταπεδωκεν μοι πονηρα αντι αγαθων

It will come to pass, when Yahweh has done to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning you, and has appointed you prince over Israel,

And it shall come to pass, when the Lord H3068 shall have done H6213 (QalImpf) to my lord H113 according to all the good H2896 that he hath spoken H1696 (PielPerf) concerning thee, and shall have appointed H6680 (PielPerf) thee ruler H5057 over Israel; H3478

και εσται οτι ποιησει κυριος τω κυριω μου παντα οσα ελαλησεν αγαθα επι σε και εντελειται σοι κυριος εις ηγουμενον επι ισραηλ

Abigail came to Nabal; and behold, he held a feast in his house like the feast of a king. Nabal’s heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. Therefore she told him nothing until the morning light.

And Abigail H26 came H935 (QalImpf) to Nabal; H5037 and, behold, he held a feast H4960 in his house, H1004 like the feast H4960 of a king; H4428 and Nabal’s H5037 heart H3820 was merry H2896 within him, for he was very H3966 drunken: H7910 wherefore she told H5046 (HiphPerf) him nothing, H1697 less H6996 or more, H1419 until the morning H1242 light. H216

και παρεγενηθη αβιγαια προς ναβαλ και ιδου αυτω ποτος εν οικω αυτου ως ποτος βασιλεως και η καρδια ναβαλ αγαθη επ αυτον και αυτος μεθυων εως σφοδρα και ουκ απηγγειλεν αυτω ρημα μικρον η μεγα εως φωτος του πρωι

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

1 Samuel 26:16 Heb. the sons of death

David said in his heart, “I will now perish one day by the hand of Saul. There is nothing better for me than that I should escape into the land of the Philistines; and Saul will despair of me, to seek me any more in all the borders of Israel. So I will escape out of his hand.”

And David H1732 said H559 (QalImpf) in his heart, H3820 I shall now perish^§ H5595 (NiphImpf) one H259 day H3117 by the hand H3027 of Saul: H7586 there is nothing better H2896 for me than that H3588 I should speedily H4422 (NiphInf) escape H4422 (NiphImpf) into the land H776 of the Philistines; H6430 and Saul H7586 shall despair H2976 (NiphPerf) of me, to seek H1245 (PielInf) me any more in any coast H1366 of Israel: H3478 so shall I escape H4422 (NiphPerf) out of his hand.

Then Achish called David and said to him, “As Yahweh lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the army is good in my sight; for I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming to me to this day. Nevertheless, the lords don’t favor you.

Then Achish H397 called H7121 (QalImpf) David, H1732 and said H559 (QalImpf) unto him, Surely, as the Lord H3068 liveth, H2416 thou hast been upright, H3477 and thy going out H3318 (QalInf) and thy coming in H935 (QalInf) with me in the host H4264 is good H2896 in my sight: H5869 for I have not found H4672 (QalPerf) evil H7451 in thee since the day H3117 of thy coming H935 (QalInf) unto me unto this day: H3117 nevertheless the lords H5633 favour H2896 thee not.

Achish answered David, “I know that you are good in my sight, as an angel of God. Notwithstanding, the princes of the Philistines have said, ‘He shall not go up with us to the battle.’

And Achish H397 answered H6030 (QalImpf) and said H559 (QalImpf) to David, H1732 I know H3045 (QalPerf) that thou art good H2896 in my sight, H5869 as an angel H4397 of God: H430 notwithstanding the princes H8269 of the Philistines H6430 have said, H559 (QalPerf) He shall not go up H5927 (QalImpf) with us to the battle. H4421

και απεκριθη αγχους προς δαυιδ οιδα οτι αγαθος συ εν οφθαλμοις μου αλλ οι σατραπαι των αλλοφυλων λεγουσιν ουχ ηξει μεθ ημων εις πολεμον

Now may Yahweh show loving kindness and truth to you. I also will reward you for this kindness, because you have done this thing.

And now the Lord H3068 shew H6213 (QalImpf) kindness H2617 and truth H571 unto you: and I also will requite H6213 (QalImpf) you this kindness, H2896 because ye have done H6213 (QalPerf) this thing. H1697

David said, “Good. I will make a treaty with you, but one thing I require of you. That is, you will not see my face unless you first bring Michal, Saul’s daughter, when you come to see my face.”

And he said, H559 (QalImpf) Well; H2896 I will make H3772 (QalImpf) a league H1285 with thee: but one H259 thing H1697 I require H7592 (QalActPtc) of thee, that is,^§ H559 (QalInf) Thou shalt not see H7200 (QalImpf) my face, H6440 except thou first H6440 bring H935 (HiphInf) Michal H4324 Saul’s H7586 daughter, H1323 when thou comest H935 (QalInf) to see H7200 (QalInf) my face.

Absalom answered Joab, “Behold, I sent to you, saying, ‘Come here, that I may send you to the king, to say, “Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me to be there still. Now therefore, let me see the king’s face; and if there is iniquity in me, let him kill me.”’”
