וַֽיְהִי בְּהַכְרִית אִיזֶבֶל אֵת נְבִיאֵי יְהוָה וַיִּקַּח עֹֽבַדְיָהוּ מֵאָה נְבִיאִים וַֽיַּחְבִּיאֵם חֲמִשִּׁים אִישׁ בַּמְּעָרָה וְכִלְכְּלָם לֶחֶם וָמָֽיִם׃
For it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the LORD, that Obadiah took an hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.)
וַיָּֽבֹא-שָׁם אֶל-הַמְּעָרָה וַיָּלֶן שָׁם וְהִנֵּה דְבַר-יְהוָה אֵלָיו וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ מַה-לְּךָ פֹה אֵֽלִיָּֽהוּ׃
And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah?
וַיֵּלֶךְ דָּוִד מִשָּׁם וַיִּמָּלֵט אֶל-מְעָרַת עֲדֻלָּם וַיִּשְׁמְעוּ אֶחָיו וְכָל-בֵּית אָבִיו וַיֵּֽרְדוּ אֵלָיו שָֽׁמָּה׃
David therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave Adullam: and when his brethren and all his father's house heard it, they went down thither to him.
הַצַּדִּיק אָבָד וְאֵין אִישׁ שָׂם עַל-לֵב וְאַנְשֵׁי-חֶסֶד נֶֽאֱסָפִים בְּאֵין מֵבִין כִּֽי-מִפְּנֵי הָרָעָה נֶאֱסַף הַצַּדִּֽיק׃
The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.
וַיְהִי כַּֽאֲשֶׁר שָׁב שָׁאוּל מֵאַֽחֲרֵי פְּלִשְׁתִּים וַיַּגִּדוּ לוֹ לֵאמֹר הִנֵּה דָוִד בְּמִדְבַּר עֵין גֶּֽדִי׃
And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of En-gedi.
לֵךְ מִזֶּה וּפָנִיתָ לְּךָ קֵדְמָה וְנִסְתַּרְתָּ בְּנַחַל כְּרִית אֲשֶׁר עַל-פְּנֵי הַיַּרְדֵּֽן׃
Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
קוֹלִי אֶל-יְהוָה אֶזְעָק קוֹלִי אֶל-יְהוָה אֶתְחַנָּֽן׃
I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.
הֲלֹֽא-הֻגַּד לַֽאדֹנִי אֵת אֲשֶׁר-עָשִׂיתִי בַּֽהֲרֹג אִיזֶבֶל אֵת נְבִיאֵי יְהוָה וָֽאַחְבִּא מִנְּבִיאֵי יְהוָה מֵאָה אִישׁ חֲמִשִּׁים חֲמִשִּׁים אִישׁ בַּמְּעָרָה וָֽאֲכַלְכְּלֵם לֶחֶם וָמָֽיִם׃
Was it not told my lord what I did when Jezebel slew the prophets of the LORD, how I hid an hundred men of the LORD's prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water?
וְאַתְּ קוּמִי לְכִי לְבֵיתֵךְ בְּבֹאָה רַגְלַיִךְ הָעִירָה וּמֵת הַיָּֽלֶד׃
Arise thou therefore, get thee to thine own house: and when thy feet enter into the city, the child shall die.
וַיָּבֹאוּ הַזִּפִים אֶל-שָׁאוּל הַגִּבְעָתָה לֵאמֹר הֲלוֹא דָוִד מִסְתַּתֵּר בְּגִבְעַת הַֽחֲכִילָה עַל פְּנֵי הַיְשִׁימֹֽן׃
And the Ziphites came unto Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth not David hide himself in the hill of Hachilah, which is before Jeshimon?
וּרְאוּ וּדְעוּ מִכֹּל הַמַּֽחֲבֹאִים אֲשֶׁר יִתְחַבֵּא שָׁם וְשַׁבְתֶּם אֵלַי אֶל-נָכוֹן וְהָֽלַכְתִּי אִתְּכֶם וְהָיָה אִם-יֶשְׁנוֹ בָאָרֶץ וְחִפַּשְׂתִּי אֹתוֹ בְּכֹל אַלְפֵי יְהוּדָֽה׃
See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking places where he hideth himself, and come ye again to me with the certainty, and I will go with you: and it shall come to pass, if he be in the land, that I will search him out throughout all the thousands of Judah.
וְכָמֹהוּ לֹֽא-הָיָה לְפָנָיו מֶלֶךְ אֲשֶׁר-שָׁב אֶל-יְהוָה בְּכָל-לְבָבוֹ וּבְכָל-נַפְשׁוֹ וּבְכָל-מְאֹדוֹ כְּכֹל תּוֹרַת מֹשֶׁה וְאַֽחֲרָיו לֹא-קָם כָּמֹֽהוּ׃
And like unto him was there no king before him, that turned to the LORD with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.
וַיַּֽעֲלוּ זִפִים אֶל-שָׁאוּל הַגִּבְעָתָה לֵאמֹר הֲלוֹא דָוִד מִסְתַּתֵּר עִמָּנוּ בַמְּצָדוֹת בַּחֹרְשָׁה בְּגִבְעַת הַֽחֲכִילָה אֲשֶׁר מִימִין הַיְשִׁימֽוֹן׃
Then came up the Ziphites to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth not David hide himself with us in strong holds in the wood, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of Jeshimon?
וַיַּרְא דָוִד כִּֽי-יָצָא שָׁאוּל לְבַקֵּשׁ אֶת-נַפְשׁוֹ וְדָוִד בְּמִדְבַּר-זִיף בַּחֹֽרְשָׁה׃
And David saw that Saul was come out to seek his life: and David was in the wilderness of Ziph in a wood.
