1 Samuel 14

וַיַּֽעֲנוּ אַנְשֵׁי הַמַּצָּבָה אֶת-יֽוֹנָתָן׀ וְאֶת-נֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ עֲלוּ אֵלֵינוּ וְנוֹדִיעָה אֶתְכֶם דָּבָר וַיֹּאמֶר יֽוֹנָתָן אֶל-נֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו עֲלֵה אַֽחֲרַי כִּֽי-נְתָנָם יְהוָה בְּיַד יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
12
And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armourbearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said unto his armourbearer, Come up after me: for the LORD hath delivered them into the hand of Israel.
וַיּוֹשַׁע יְהוָה בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל וְהַמִּלְחָמָה עָֽבְרָה אֶת-בֵּית אָֽוֶן׃
23
So the LORD saved Israel that day: and the battle passed over unto Beth-aven.
וַיַּגִּידוּ לְשָׁאוּל לֵאמֹר הִנֵּה הָעָם חֹטִאים לַֽיהוָה לֶֽאֱכֹל עַל-הַדָּם וַיֹּאמֶר בְּגַדְתֶּם גֹּלּוּ-אֵלַי הַיּוֹם אֶבֶן גְּדוֹלָֽה׃
33
Then they told Saul, saying, Behold, the people sin against the LORD, in that they eat with the blood. And he said, Ye have transgressed: roll a great stone unto me this day.
וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל פֻּצוּ בָעָם וַֽאֲמַרְתֶּם לָהֶם הַגִּישׁוּ אֵלַי אִישׁ שׁוֹרוֹ וְאִישׁ שְׂיֵהוּ וּשְׁחַטְתֶּם בָּזֶה וַֽאֲכַלְתֶּם וְלֹֽא-תֶחֶטְאוּ לַֽיהוָה לֶֽאֱכֹל אֶל-הַדָּם וַיַּגִּשׁוּ כָל-הָעָם אִישׁ שׁוֹרוֹ בְיָדוֹ הַלַּיְלָה וַיִּשְׁחֲטוּ-שָֽׁם׃
34
And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and say unto them, Bring me hither every man his ox, and every man his sheep, and slay them here, and eat; and sin not against the LORD in eating with the blood. And all the people brought every man his ox with him that night, and slew them there.
וַיִּבֶן שָׁאוּל מִזְבֵּחַ לַֽיהוָה אֹתוֹ הֵחֵל לִבְנוֹת מִזְבֵּחַ לַֽיהוָֽה׃
35
And Saul built an altar unto the LORD: the same was the first altar that he built unto the LORD.
כִּי חַי-יְהוָה הַמּוֹשִׁיעַ אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי אִם-יֶשְׁנוֹ בְּיֽוֹנָתָן בְּנִי כִּי מוֹת יָמוּת וְאֵין עֹנֵהוּ מִכָּל-הָעָֽם׃
39
For, as the LORD liveth, which saveth Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die. But there was not a man among all the people that answered him.
וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל אֶל-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל הָבָה תָמִים וַיִּלָּכֵד יֽוֹנָתָן וְשָׁאוּל וְהָעָם יָצָֽאוּ׃
41
Therefore Saul said unto the LORD God of Israel, Give a perfect lot. And Saul and Jonathan were taken: but the people escaped.
וַיֹּאמֶר הָעָם אֶל-שָׁאוּל הֲֽיוֹנָתָן׀ יָמוּת אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה הַיְשׁוּעָה הַגְּדוֹלָה הַזֹּאת בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל חָלִילָה חַי-יְהוָה אִם-יִפֹּל מִשַּֽׂעֲרַת רֹאשׁוֹ אַרְצָה כִּֽי-עִם-אֱלֹהִים עָשָׂה הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה וַיִּפְדּוּ הָעָם אֶת-יֽוֹנָתָן וְלֹא-מֵֽת׃
45
And the people said unto Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? God forbid: as the LORD liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground; for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people rescued Jonathan, that he died not.

1 Samuel 15

וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל-שָׁאוּל אֹתִי שָׁלַח יְהוָה לִמְשָֽׁחֳךָ לְמֶלֶךְ עַל-עַמּוֹ עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וְעַתָּה שְׁמַע לְקוֹל דִּבְרֵי יְהוָֽה׃
1
Samuel also said unto Saul, The LORD sent me to anoint thee to be king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the LORD.
כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת פָּקַדְתִּי אֵת אֲשֶׁר-עָשָׂה עֲמָלֵק לְיִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר-שָׂם לוֹ בַּדֶּרֶךְ בַּֽעֲלֹתוֹ מִמִּצְרָֽיִם׃
2
Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.
וַֽיְהִי דְּבַר-יְהוָה אֶל-שְׁמוּאֵל לֵאמֹֽר׃
10
Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying,
נִחַמְתִּי כִּֽי-הִמְלַכְתִּי אֶת-שָׁאוּל לְמֶלֶךְ כִּי-שָׁב מֵאַֽחֲרַי וְאֶת-דְּבָרַי לֹא הֵקִים וַיִּחַר לִשְׁמוּאֵל וַיִּזְעַק אֶל-יְהוָה כָּל-הַלָּֽיְלָה׃
11
It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.
וַיָּבֹא שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל-שָׁאוּל וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ שָׁאוּל בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה לַֽיהוָה הֲקִימֹתִי אֶת-דְּבַר יְהוָֽה׃
13
And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said unto him, Blessed be thou of the LORD: I have performed the commandment of the LORD.
וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל מֵעֲמָֽלֵקִי הֱבִיאוּם אֲשֶׁר חָמַל הָעָם עַל-מֵיטַב הַצֹּאן וְהַבָּקָר לְמַעַן זְבֹחַ לַֽיהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ וְאֶת-הַיּוֹתֵר הֶֽחֱרַֽמְנוּ׃
15
And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.
וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל-שָׁאוּל הֶרֶף וְאַגִּידָה לְּךָ אֵת אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר יְהוָה אֵלַי הַלָּיְלָה ‫(ויאמרו)‬ וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ דַּבֵּֽר׃
16
Then Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the LORD hath said to me this night. And he said unto him, Say on.
וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל הֲלוֹא אִם-קָטֹן אַתָּה בְּעֵינֶיךָ רֹאשׁ שִׁבְטֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אָתָּה וַיִּמְשָֽׁחֲךָ יְהוָה לְמֶלֶךְ עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
17
And Samuel said, When thou wast little in thine own sight, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel, and the LORD anointed thee king over Israel?
וַיִּשְׁלָֽחֲךָ יְהוָה בְּדָרֶךְ וַיֹּאמֶר לֵךְ וְהַֽחֲרַמְתָּה אֶת-הַֽחַטָּאִים אֶת-עֲמָלֵק וְנִלְחַמְתָּ בוֹ עַד כַּלּוֹתָם אֹתָֽם׃
18
And the LORD sent thee on a journey, and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.
וְלָמָּה לֹֽא-שָׁמַעְתָּ בְּקוֹל יְהוָה וַתַּעַט אֶל-הַשָּׁלָל וַתַּעַשׂ הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָֽה׃
19
Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the LORD, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight of the LORD?
וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל אֶל-שְׁמוּאֵל אֲשֶׁר שָׁמַעְתִּי בְּקוֹל יְהוָה וָֽאֵלֵךְ בַּדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר-שְׁלָחַנִי יְהוָה וָֽאָבִיא אֶת-אֲגַג מֶלֶךְ עֲמָלֵק וְאֶת-עֲמָלֵק הֶֽחֱרַֽמְתִּי׃
20
And Saul said unto Samuel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of the LORD, and have gone the way which the LORD sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.
וַיִּקַּח הָעָם מֵֽהַשָּׁלָל צֹאן וּבָקָר רֵאשִׁית הַחֵרֶם לִזְבֹּחַ לַֽיהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בַּגִּלְגָּֽל׃
21
But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God in Gilgal.
וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל הַחֵפֶץ לַֽיהוָה בְּעֹלוֹת וּזְבָחִים כִּשְׁמֹעַ בְּקוֹל יְהוָה הִנֵּה שְׁמֹעַ מִזֶּבַח טוֹב לְהַקְשִׁיב מֵחֵלֶב אֵילִֽים׃
22
And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
כִּי חַטַּאת-קֶסֶם מֶרִי וְאָוֶן וּתְרָפִים הַפְצַר יַעַן מָאַסְתָּ אֶת-דְּבַר יְהוָה וַיִּמְאָֽסְךָ מִמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
23
For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל אֶל-שְׁמוּאֵל חָטָאתִי כִּֽי-עָבַרְתִּי אֶת-פִּֽי-יְהוָה וְאֶת-דְּבָרֶיךָ כִּי יָרֵאתִי אֶת-הָעָם וָֽאֶשְׁמַע בְּקוֹלָֽם׃
24
And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.
וְעַתָּה שָׂא נָא אֶת-חַטָּאתִי וְשׁוּב עִמִּי וְאֶֽשְׁתַּחֲוֶה לַֽיהוָֽה׃
25
Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD.
וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל-שָׁאוּל לֹא אָשׁוּב עִמָּךְ כִּי מָאַסְתָּה אֶת-דְּבַר יְהוָה וַיִּמְאָֽסְךָ יְהוָה מִֽהְיוֹת מֶלֶךְ עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
26
And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו שְׁמוּאֵל קָרַע יְהוָה אֶֽת-מַמְלְכוּת יִשְׂרָאֵל מֵֽעָלֶיךָ הַיּוֹם וּנְתָנָהּ לְרֵֽעֲךָ הַטּוֹב מִמֶּֽךָּ׃
28
And Samuel said unto him, The LORD hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbour of thine, that is better than thou.
וַיֹּאמֶר חָטָאתִי עַתָּה כַּבְּדֵנִי נָא נֶגֶד זִקְנֵֽי-עַמִּי וְנֶגֶד יִשְׂרָאֵל וְשׁוּב עִמִּי וְהִֽשְׁתַּחֲוֵיתִי לַֽיהוָה אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ׃
30
Then he said, I have sinned: yet honour me now, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD thy God.
וַיָּשָׁב שְׁמוּאֵל אַֽחֲרֵי שָׁאוּל וַיִּשְׁתַּחוּ שָׁאוּל לַֽיהוָֽה׃
31
So Samuel turned again after Saul; and Saul worshipped the LORD.
וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל כַּֽאֲשֶׁר שִׁכְּלָה נָשִׁים חַרְבֶּךָ כֵּן-תִּשְׁכַּל מִנָּשִׁים אִמֶּךָ וַיְשַׁסֵּף שְׁמוּאֵל אֶת-אֲגָג לִפְנֵי יְהוָה בַּגִּלְגָּֽל׃
33
And Samuel said, As thy sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed pieces Agag in before the LORD in Gilgal.
וְלֹֽא-יָסַף שְׁמוּאֵל לִרְאוֹת אֶת-שָׁאוּל עַד-יוֹם מוֹתוֹ כִּֽי-הִתְאַבֵּל שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל-שָׁאוּל וַֽיהוָה נִחָם כִּֽי-הִמְלִיךְ אֶת-שָׁאוּל עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
35
And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.

1 Samuel 16

וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל-שְׁמוּאֵל עַד-מָתַי אַתָּה מִתְאַבֵּל אֶל-שָׁאוּל וַֽאֲנִי מְאַסְתִּיו מִמְּלֹךְ עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל מַלֵּא קַרְנְךָ שֶׁמֶן וְלֵךְ אֶֽשְׁלָחֲךָ אֶל-יִשַׁי בֵּֽית-הַלַּחְמִי כִּֽי-רָאִיתִי בְּבָנָיו לִי מֶֽלֶךְ׃
1
And the LORD said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.
וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל אֵיךְ אֵלֵךְ וְשָׁמַע שָׁאוּל וַֽהֲרָגָנִי וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה עֶגְלַת בָּקָר תִּקַּח בְּיָדֶךָ וְאָמַרְתָּ לִזְבֹּחַ לַֽיהוָה בָּֽאתִי׃
2
And Samuel said, How can I go? if Saul hear it, he will kill me. And the LORD said, Take an heifer with thee, and say, I am come to sacrifice to the LORD.
וַיַּעַשׂ שְׁמוּאֵל אֵת אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר יְהוָה וַיָּבֹא בֵּית לָחֶם וַיֶּֽחֶרְדוּ זִקְנֵי הָעִיר לִקְרָאתוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁלֹם בּוֹאֶֽךָ׃
4
And Samuel did that which the LORD spake, and came to Bethlehem. And the elders of the town trembled at his coming, and said, Comest thou peaceably?
וַיֹּאמֶר׀ שָׁלוֹם לִזְבֹּחַ לַֽיהוָה בָּאתִי הִֽתְקַדְּשׁוּ וּבָאתֶם אִתִּי בַּזָּבַח וַיְקַדֵּשׁ אֶת-יִשַׁי וְאֶת-בָּנָיו וַיִּקְרָא לָהֶם לַזָּֽבַח׃
5
And he said, Peaceably: I am come to sacrifice unto the LORD: sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.
וַיְהִי בְּבוֹאָם וַיַּרְא אֶת-אֱלִיאָב וַיֹּאמֶר אַךְ נֶגֶד יְהוָה מְשִׁיחֽוֹ׃
6
And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the LORD's anointed is before him.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל-שְׁמוּאֵל אַל-תַּבֵּט אֶל-מַרְאֵהוּ וְאֶל-גְּבֹהַּ קֽוֹמָתוֹ כִּי מְאַסְתִּיהוּ כִּי׀ לֹא אֲשֶׁר יִרְאֶה הָֽאָדָם כִּי הָֽאָדָם יִרְאֶה לַעֵינַיִם וַֽיהוָה יִרְאֶה לַלֵּבָֽב׃
7
But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.
וַיִּקְרָא יִשַׁי אֶל-אֲבִינָדָב וַיַּֽעֲבִרֵהוּ לִפְנֵי שְׁמוּאֵל וַיֹּאמֶר גַּם-בָּזֶה לֹֽא-בָחַר יְהוָֽה׃
8
Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, Neither hath the LORD chosen this.
וַיַּֽעֲבֵר יִשַׁי שַׁמָּה וַיֹּאמֶר גַּם-בָּזֶה לֹֽא-בָחַר יְהוָֽה׃
9
Then Jesse made Shammah to pass by. And he said, Neither hath the LORD chosen this.
וַיַּֽעֲבֵר יִשַׁי שִׁבְעַת בָּנָיו לִפְנֵי שְׁמוּאֵל וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל-יִשַׁי לֹֽא-בָחַר יְהוָה בָּאֵֽלֶּה׃
10
Again, Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. And Samuel said unto Jesse, The LORD hath not chosen these.
וַיִּשְׁלַח וַיְבִיאֵהוּ וְהוּא אַדְמוֹנִי עִם-יְפֵה עֵינַיִם וְטוֹב רֹאִי וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה קוּם מְשָׁחֵהוּ כִּי-זֶה הֽוּא׃
12
And he sent, and brought in. him Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for this is he.
וַיִּקַּח שְׁמוּאֵל אֶת-קֶרֶן הַשֶּׁמֶן וַיִּמְשַׁח אֹתוֹ בְּקֶרֶב אֶחָיו וַתִּצְלַח רֽוּחַ-יְהוָה אֶל-דָּוִד מֵֽהַיּוֹם הַהוּא וָמָעְלָה וַיָּקָם שְׁמוּאֵל וַיֵּלֶךְ הָֽרָמָֽתָה׃
13
Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.
וְרוּחַ יְהוָה סָרָה מֵעִם שָׁאוּל וּבִֽעֲתַתּוּ רֽוּחַ-רָעָה מֵאֵת יְהוָֽה׃
14
But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD troubled him.
וַיַּעַן אֶחָד מֵֽהַנְּעָרִים וַיֹּאמֶר הִנֵּה רָאִיתִי בֵּן לְיִשַׁי בֵּית הַלַּחְמִי יֹדֵעַ נַגֵּן וְגִבּוֹר חַיִל וְאִישׁ מִלְחָמָה וּנְבוֹן דָּבָר וְאִישׁ תֹּאַר וַֽיהוָה עִמּֽוֹ׃
18
Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, that is cunning in playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person, and the LORD is with him.

1 Samuel 17

וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר הִצִּלַנִי מִיַּד הָֽאֲרִי וּמִיַּד הַדֹּב הוּא יַצִּילֵנִי מִיַּד הַפְּלִשְׁתִּי הַזֶּה וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל אֶל-דָּוִד לֵךְ וַֽיהוָה יִֽהְיֶה עִמָּֽךְ׃
37
David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the LORD be with thee.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד אֶל-הַפְּלִשְׁתִּי אַתָּה בָּא אֵלַי בְּחֶרֶב וּבַֽחֲנִית וּבְכִידוֹן וְאָֽנֹכִי בָֽא-אֵלֶיךָ בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת אֱלֹהֵי מַֽעַרְכוֹת יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר חֵרַֽפְתָּ׃
45
Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.
הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה יְסַגֶּרְךָ יְהוָה בְּיָדִי וְהִכִּיתִךָ וַהֲסִֽרֹתִי אֶת-רֹֽאשְׁךָ מֵֽעָלֶיךָ וְנָתַתִּי פֶּגֶר מַֽחֲנֵה פְלִשְׁתִּים הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה לְעוֹף הַשָּׁמַיִם וּלְחַיַּת הָאָרֶץ וְיֵֽדְעוּ כָּל-הָאָרֶץ כִּי יֵשׁ אֱלֹהִים לְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
46
This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
וְיֵֽדְעוּ כָּל-הַקָּהָל הַזֶּה כִּֽי-לֹא בְּחֶרֶב וּבַֽחֲנִית יְהוֹשִׁיעַ יְהוָה כִּי לַֽיהוָה הַמִּלְחָמָה וְנָתַן אֶתְכֶם בְּיָדֵֽנוּ׃
47
And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD's, and he will give you into our hands.

1 Samuel 18

וַיִּרָא שָׁאוּל מִלִּפְנֵי דָוִד כִּֽי-הָיָה יְהוָה עִמּוֹ וּמֵעִם שָׁאוּל סָֽר׃
12
And Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him, and was departed from Saul.
וַיְהִי דָוִד לְכָל-דָּרְכָו מַשְׂכִּיל וַֽיהוָה עִמּֽוֹ׃
14
And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him.
וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל אֶל-דָּוִד הִנֵּה בִתִּי הַגְּדוֹלָה מֵרַב אֹתָהּ אֶתֶּן-לְךָ לְאִשָּׁה אַךְ הֱיֵה-לִּי לְבֶן-חַיִל וְהִלָּחֵם מִלְחֲמוֹת יְהוָה וְשָׁאוּל אָמַר אַל-תְּהִי יָדִי בּוֹ וּתְהִי-בוֹ יַד-פְּלִשְׁתִּֽים׃
17
And Saul said to David, Behold my elder daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife: only be thou valiant for me, and fight the LORD's battles. For Saul said, Let not mine hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.
וַיַּרְא שָׁאוּל וַיֵּדַע כִּי יְהוָה עִם-דָּוִד וּמִיכַל בַּת-שָׁאוּל אֲהֵבַֽתְהוּ׃
28
And Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that Michal Saul's daughter loved him.

1 Samuel 19

וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת-נַפְשׁוֹ בְכַפּוֹ וַיַּךְ אֶת-הַפְּלִשְׁתִּי וַיַּעַשׂ יְהוָה תְּשׁוּעָה גְדוֹלָה לְכָל-יִשְׂרָאֵל רָאִיתָ וַתִּשְׂמָח וְלָמָּה תֶֽחֱטָא בְּדָם נָקִי לְהָמִית אֶת-דָּוִד חִנָּֽם׃
5
For he did put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou sawest it, and didst rejoice: wherefore then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?
וַיִּשְׁמַע שָׁאוּל בְּקוֹל יְהֽוֹנָתָן וַיִּשָּׁבַע שָׁאוּל חַי-יְהוָה אִם-יוּמָֽת׃
6
And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan: and Saul sware, As the LORD liveth, he shall not be slain.
וַתְּהִי רוּחַ יְהוָה׀ רָעָה אֶל-שָׁאוּל וְהוּא בְּבֵיתוֹ יוֹשֵׁב וַֽחֲנִיתוֹ בְּיָדוֹ וְדָוִד מְנַגֵּן בְּיָֽד׃
9
And the evil spirit from the LORD was upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his javelin in his hand: and David played with his hand.

1 Samuel 20

וַיִּשָּׁבַע עוֹד דָּוִד וַיֹּאמֶר יָדֹעַ יָדַע אָבִיךָ כִּֽי-מָצָאתִי חֵן בְּעֵינֶיךָ וַיֹּאמֶר אַל-יֵֽדַע-זֹאת יְהֽוֹנָתָן פֶּן-יֵֽעָצֵב וְאוּלָם חַי-יְהוָה וְחֵי נַפְשֶׁךָ כִּי כְפֶשַׂע בֵּינִי וּבֵין הַמָּֽוֶת׃
3
And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death.
וְעָשִׂיתָ חֶסֶד עַל-עַבְדֶּךָ כִּי בִּבְרִית יְהוָה הֵבֵאתָ אֶֽת-עַבְדְּךָ עִמָּךְ וְאִם-יֶשׁ-בִּי עָוֹן הֲמִיתֵנִי אַתָּה וְעַד-אָבִיךָ לָמָּה-זֶּה תְבִיאֵֽנִי׃
8
Therefore thou shalt deal kindly with thy servant; for thou hast brought thy servant into a covenant of the LORD with thee: notwithstanding, if there be in me iniquity, slay me thyself; for why shouldest thou bring me to thy father?
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהֽוֹנָתָן אֶל-דָּוִד יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּֽי-אֶחְקֹר אֶת-אָבִי כָּעֵת׀ מָחָר הַשְּׁלִשִׁית וְהִנֵּה-טוֹב אֶל-דָּוִד וְלֹא-אָז אֶשְׁלַח אֵלֶיךָ וְגָלִיתִי אֶת-אָזְנֶֽךָ׃
12
And Jonathan said unto David, O LORD God of Israel, when I have sounded my father about to morrow any time, or the third day, and, behold, if there be good toward David, and I then send not unto thee, and shew it thee;
כֹּֽה-יַעֲשֶׂה יְהוָה לִיהֽוֹנָתָן וְכֹה יֹסִיף כִּֽי-יֵיטִב אֶל-אָבִי אֶת-הָֽרָעָה עָלֶיךָ וְגָלִיתִי אֶת-אָזְנֶךָ וְשִׁלַּחְתִּיךָ וְהָֽלַכְתָּ לְשָׁלוֹם וִיהִי יְהוָה עִמָּךְ כַּֽאֲשֶׁר הָיָה עִם-אָבִֽי׃
13
The LORD do so and much more to Jonathan: but if it please my father to do thee evil, then I will shew it thee, and send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace: and the LORD be with thee, as he hath been with my father.
וְלֹא אִם-עוֹדֶנִּי חָי וְלֹֽא-תַעֲשֶׂה עִמָּדִי חֶסֶד יְהוָה וְלֹא אָמֽוּת׃
14
And thou shalt not only while yet I live shew me the kindness of the LORD, that I die not:
וְלֹֽא-תַכְרִית אֶֽת-חַסְדְּךָ מֵעִם בֵּיתִי עַד-עוֹלָם וְלֹא בְּהַכְרִת יְהוָה אֶת-אֹֽיְבֵי דָוִד אִישׁ מֵעַל פְּנֵי הָֽאֲדָמָֽה׃
15
But also thou shalt not cut off thy kindness from my house for ever: no, not when the LORD hath cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth.
וַיִּכְרֹת יְהֽוֹנָתָן עִם-בֵּית דָּוִד וּבִקֵּשׁ יְהוָה מִיַּד אֹֽיְבֵי דָוִֽד׃
16
So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, Let the LORD even require it at the hand of David's enemies.
וְהִנֵּה אֶשְׁלַח אֶת-הַנַּעַר לֵךְ מְצָא אֶת-הַחִצִּים אִם-אָמֹר אֹמַר לַנַּעַר הִנֵּה הַחִצִּים׀ מִמְּךָ וָהֵנָּה קָחֶנּוּ׀ וָבֹאָה כִּֽי-שָׁלוֹם לְךָ וְאֵין דָּבָר חַי-יְהוָֽה׃
21
And, behold, I will send a lad, saying, Go, find out the arrows. If I expressly say unto the lad, Behold, the arrows are on this side of thee, take them; then come thou: for there is peace to thee, and no hurt; as the LORD liveth.
וְאִם-כֹּה אֹמַר לָעֶלֶם הִנֵּה הַחִצִּים מִמְּךָ וָהָלְאָה לֵךְ כִּי שִֽׁלַּחֲךָ יְהוָֽה׃
22
But if I say thus unto the young man, Behold, the arrows are beyond thee; go thy way: for the LORD hath sent thee away.
וְהַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר דִּבַּרְנוּ אֲנִי וָאָתָּה הִנֵּה יְהוָה בֵּינִי וּבֵֽינְךָ עַד-עוֹלָֽם׃
23
And as touching the matter which thou and I have spoken of, behold, the LORD be between thee and me for ever.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהֽוֹנָתָן לְדָוִד לֵךְ לְשָׁלוֹם אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּעְנוּ שְׁנֵינוּ אֲנַחְנוּ בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה לֵאמֹר יְהוָה יִֽהְיֶה׀ בֵּינִי וּבֵינֶךָ וּבֵין זַרְעִי וּבֵין זַרְעֲךָ עַד-עוֹלָֽם׃
42
And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, forasmuch as we have sworn both of us in the name of the LORD, saying, The LORD be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever. And he arose and departed: and Jonathan went into the city.

1 Samuel 21

וַיִּתֶּן-לוֹ הַכֹּהֵן קֹדֶשׁ כִּי לֹא-הָיָה שָׁם לֶחֶם כִּֽי-אִם-לֶחֶם הַפָּנִים הַמּֽוּסָרִים מִלִּפְנֵי יְהוָה לָשׂוּם לֶחֶם חֹם בְּיוֹם הִלָּֽקְחֽוֹ׃
6
So the priest gave him hallowed bread: for there was no bread there but the shewbread, that was taken from before the LORD, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away.
וְשָׁם אִישׁ מֵֽעַבְדֵי שָׁאוּל בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא נֶעְצָר לִפְנֵי יְהוָה וּשְׁמוֹ דֹּאֵג הָֽאֲדֹמִי אַבִּיר הָֽרֹעִים אֲשֶׁר לְשָׁאֽוּל׃
7
Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before the LORD; and his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the chiefest of the herdmen that belonged to Saul.

1 Samuel 22

וַיִּשְׁאַל-לוֹ בַּֽיהוָה וְצֵידָה נָתַן לוֹ וְאֵת חֶרֶב גָּלְיָת הַפְּלִשְׁתִּי נָתַן לֽוֹ׃
10
And he inquired of the LORD for him, and gave him victuals, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ לָֽרָצִים הַנִּצָּבִים עָלָיו סֹבּוּ וְהָמִיתוּ׀ כֹּֽהֲנֵי יְהוָה כִּי גַם-יָדָם עִם-דָּוִד וְכִי יָֽדְעוּ כִּֽי-בֹרֵחַ הוּא וְלֹא גָלוּ אֶת-‫(אזנו)‬ אָזְנִי וְלֹֽא-אָבוּ עַבְדֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ לִשְׁלֹחַ אֶת-יָדָם לִפְגֹעַ בְּכֹֽהֲנֵי יְהוָֽה׃
17
And the king said unto the footmen that stood about him, Turn, and slay the priests of the LORD; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew when he fled, and did not shew it to me. But the servants of the king would not put forth their hand to fall upon the priests of the LORD.
וַיַּגֵּד אֶבְיָתָר לְדָוִד כִּי הָרַג שָׁאוּל אֵת כֹּֽהֲנֵי יְהוָֽה׃
21
And Abiathar shewed David that Saul had slain the LORD's priests.

1 Samuel 23

וַיִּשְׁאַל דָּוִד בַּֽיהוָה לֵאמֹר הַֽאֵלֵךְ וְהִכֵּיתִי בַּפְּלִשְׁתִּים הָאֵלֶּה וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל-דָּוִד לֵךְ וְהִכִּיתָ בַפְּלִשְׁתִּים וְהֽוֹשַׁעְתָּ אֶת-קְעִילָֽה׃
2
Therefore David inquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And the LORD said unto David, Go, and smite the Philistines, and save Keilah.
וַיּוֹסֶף עוֹד דָּוִד לִשְׁאוֹל בַּֽיהוָה וַֽיַּעֲנֵהוּ יְהוָה וַיֹּאמֶר קוּם רֵד קְעִילָה כִּֽי-אֲנִי נֹתֵן אֶת-פְּלִשְׁתִּים בְּיָדֶֽךָ׃
4
Then David inquired of the LORD yet again. And the LORD answered him and said, Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into thine hand.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל שָׁמֹעַ שָׁמַע עַבְדְּךָ כִּֽי-מְבַקֵּשׁ שָׁאוּל לָבוֹא אֶל-קְעִילָה לְשַׁחֵת לָעִיר בַּֽעֲבוּרִֽי׃
10
Then said David, O LORD God of Israel, thy servant hath certainly heard that Saul seeketh to come to Keilah, to destroy the city for my sake.
הֲיַסְגִּרֻנִי בַֽעֲלֵי קְעִילָה בְיָדוֹ הֲיֵרֵד שָׁאוּל כַּֽאֲשֶׁר שָׁמַע עַבְדֶּךָ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל הַגֶּד-נָא לְעַבְדֶּךָ וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה יֵרֵֽד׃
11
Will the men of Keilah deliver me up into his hand? will Saul come down, as thy servant hath heard? O LORD God of Israel, I beseech thee, tell thy servant. And the LORD said, He will come down.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד הֲיַסְגִּרוּ בַּֽעֲלֵי קְעִילָה אֹתִי וְאֶת-אֲנָשַׁי בְּיַד-שָׁאוּל וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה יַסְגִּֽירוּ׃
12
Then said David, Will the men of Keilah deliver me and my men into the hand of Saul? And the LORD said, They will deliver thee up.
וַיִּכְרְתוּ שְׁנֵיהֶם בְּרִית לִפְנֵי יְהוָה וַיֵּשֶׁב דָּוִד בַּחֹרְשָׁה וִיהֽוֹנָתָן הָלַךְ לְבֵיתֽוֹ׃
18
And they two made a covenant before the LORD: and David abode in the wood, and Jonathan went to his house.
וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל בְּרוּכִים אַתֶּם לַֽיהוָה כִּי חֲמַלְתֶּם עָלָֽי׃
21
And Saul said, Blessed be ye of the LORD; for ye have compassion on me.

1 Samuel 24

וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ אַנְשֵׁי דָוִד אֵלָיו הִנֵּה הַיּוֹם אֲֽשֶׁר-אָמַר יְהוָה אֵלֶיךָ הִנֵּה אָֽנֹכִי נֹתֵן אֶת-‫(איביך)‬ אֹֽיִבְךָ בְּיָדֶךָ וְעָשִׂיתָ לּוֹ כַּֽאֲשֶׁר יִטַב בְּעֵינֶיךָ וַיָּקָם דָּוִד וַיִּכְרֹת אֶת-כְּנַֽף-הַמְּעִיל אֲשֶׁר-לְשָׁאוּל בַּלָּֽט׃
4
And the men of David said unto him, Behold the day of which the LORD said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thine hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good unto thee. Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe privily.
וַיֹּאמֶר לַֽאֲנָשָׁיו חָלִילָה לִּי מֵֽיְהוָה אִם-אֶֽעֱשֶׂה אֶת-הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה לַֽאדֹנִי לִמְשִׁיחַ יְהוָה לִשְׁלֹחַ יָדִי בּוֹ כִּֽי-מְשִׁיחַ יְהוָה הֽוּא׃
6
And he said unto his men, The LORD forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, the LORD's anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the LORD.
הִנֵּה הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה רָאוּ עֵינֶיךָ אֵת אֲשֶׁר-נְתָֽנְךָ יְהוָה׀ הַיּוֹם׀ בְּיָדִי בַּמְּעָרָה וְאָמַר לַהֲרָֽגְךָ וַתָּחָס עָלֶיךָ וָֽאֹמַר לֹֽא-אֶשְׁלַח יָדִי בַּֽאדֹנִי כִּֽי-מְשִׁיחַ יְהוָה הֽוּא׃
10
Behold, this day thine eyes have seen how that the LORD had delivered thee to day into mine hand in the cave: and some bade me kill thee: but mine eye spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth mine hand against my lord; for he is the LORD's anointed.
יִשְׁפֹּט יְהוָה בֵּינִי וּבֵינֶךָ וּנְקָמַנִי יְהוָה מִמֶּךָּ וְיָדִי לֹא תִֽהְיֶה-בָּֽךְ׃
12
The LORD judge between me and thee, and the LORD avenge me of thee: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.
וְהָיָה יְהוָה לְדַיָּן וְשָׁפַט בֵּינִי וּבֵינֶךָ וְיֵרֶא וְיָרֵב אֶת-רִיבִי וְיִשְׁפְּטֵנִי מִיָּדֶֽךָ׃
15
The LORD therefore be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thine hand.
‫(ואת)‬ וְאַתָּה הִגַּדְתָּ הַיּוֹם אֵת אֲשֶׁר-עָשִׂיתָה אִתִּי טוֹבָה אֵת אֲשֶׁר סִגְּרַנִי יְהוָה בְּיָֽדְךָ וְלֹא הֲרַגְתָּֽנִי׃
18
And thou hast shewed this day how that thou hast dealt well with me: forasmuch as when the LORD had delivered me into thine hand, thou killedst me not.
וְכִֽי-יִמְצָא אִישׁ אֶת-אֹיְבוֹ וְשִׁלְּחוֹ בְּדֶרֶךְ טוֹבָה וַֽיהוָה יְשַׁלֶּמְךָ טוֹבָה תַּחַת הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה אֲשֶׁר עָשִׂיתָה לִֽי׃
19
For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well away? wherefore the LORD reward thee good for that thou hast done unto me this day.
וְעַתָּה הִשָּׁבְעָה לִּי בַּֽיהוָה אִם-תַּכְרִית אֶת-זַרְעִי אַֽחֲרָי וְאִם-תַּשְׁמִיד אֶת-שְׁמִי מִבֵּית אָבִֽי׃
21
Swear now therefore unto me by the LORD, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father's house.

1 Samuel 25

וְעַתָּה אֲדֹנִי חַי-יְהוָה וְחֵֽי-נַפְשְׁךָ אֲשֶׁר מְנָֽעֲךָ יְהוָה מִבּוֹא בְדָמִים וְהוֹשֵׁעַ יָֽדְךָ לָךְ וְעַתָּה יִֽהְיוּ כְנָבָל אֹֽיְבֶיךָ וְהַֽמְבַקְשִׁים אֶל-אֲדֹנִי רָעָֽה׃
26
Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, seeing the LORD hath withholden thee from coming to shed blood, and from avenging thyself with thine own hand, now let thine enemies, and they that seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal.
שָׂא נָא לְפֶשַׁע אֲמָתֶךָ כִּי עָשֹֽׂה-יַעֲשֶׂה יְהוָה לַֽאדֹנִי בַּיִת נֶֽאֱמָן כִּֽי-מִלְחֲמוֹת יְהוָה אֲדֹנִי נִלְחָם וְרָעָה לֹֽא-תִמָּצֵא בְךָ מִיָּמֶֽיךָ׃
28
I pray thee, forgive the trespass of thine handmaid: for the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house; because my lord fighteth the battles of the LORD, and evil hath not been found in thee all thy days.
וַיָּקָם אָדָם לִרְדָפְךָ וּלְבַקֵּשׁ אֶת-נַפְשֶׁךָ וְֽהָיְתָה נֶפֶשׁ אֲדֹנִי צְרוּרָה׀ בִּצְרוֹר הַֽחַיִּים אֵת יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ וְאֵת נֶפֶשׁ אֹֽיְבֶיךָ יְקַלְּעֶנָּה בְּתוֹךְ כַּף הַקָּֽלַע׃
29
Yet a man is risen to pursue thee, and to seek thy soul: but the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD thy God; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out, as out of the middle of a sling.
וְהָיָה כִּֽי-יַעֲשֶׂה יְהוָה לַֽאדֹנִי כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר-דִּבֶּר אֶת-הַטּוֹבָה עָלֶיךָ וְצִוְּךָ לְנָגִיד עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
30
And it shall come to pass, when the LORD shall have done to my lord according to all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have appointed thee ruler over Israel;
וְלֹא תִֽהְיֶה זֹאת׀ לְךָ לְפוּקָה וּלְמִכְשׁוֹל לֵב לַֽאדֹנִי וְלִשְׁפָּךְ-דָּם חִנָּם וּלְהוֹשִׁיעַ אֲדֹנִי לוֹ וְהֵיטִב יְהוָה לַֽאדֹנִי וְזָֽכַרְתָּ אֶת-אֲמָתֶֽךָ׃
31
That this shall be no grief unto thee, nor offence of heart unto my lord, either that thou hast shed blood causeless, or that my lord hath avenged himself: but when the LORD shall have dealt well with my lord, then remember thine handmaid.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד לַֽאֲבִיגַל בָּרוּךְ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר שְׁלָחֵךְ הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה לִקְרָאתִֽי׃
32
And David said to Abigail, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, which sent thee this day to meet me:
וְאוּלָם חַי-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר מְנָעַנִי מֵֽהָרַע אֹתָךְ כִּי׀ לוּלֵי מִהַרְתְּ ‫(ותבאתי)‬ וַתָּבֹאת לִקְרָאתִי כִּי אִם-נוֹתַר לְנָבָל עַד-אוֹר הַבֹּקֶר מַשְׁתִּין בְּקִֽיר׃
34
For in very deed, as the LORD God of Israel liveth, which hath kept me back from hurting thee, except thou hadst hasted and come to meet me, surely there had not been left unto Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
וַיְהִי כַּֽעֲשֶׂרֶת הַיָּמִים וַיִּגֹּף יְהוָה אֶת-נָבָל וַיָּמֹֽת׃
38
And it came to pass about ten days after, that the LORD smote Nabal, that he died.
וַיִּשְׁמַע דָּוִד כִּי מֵת נָבָל וַיֹּאמֶר בָּרוּךְ יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר רָב אֶת-רִיב חֶרְפָּתִי מִיַּד נָבָל וְאֶת-עַבְדּוֹ חָשַׂךְ מֵֽרָעָה וְאֵת רָעַת נָבָל הֵשִׁיב יְהוָה בְּרֹאשׁוֹ וַיִּשְׁלַח דָּוִד וַיְדַבֵּר בַּֽאֲבִיגַיִל לְקַחְתָּהּ לוֹ לְאִשָּֽׁה׃
39
And when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, Blessed be the LORD, that hath pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil: for the LORD hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his own head. And David sent and communed with Abigail, to take her to him to wife.

1 Samuel 26

וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד אֶל-אֲבִישַׁי אַל-תַּשְׁחִיתֵהוּ כִּי מִי שָׁלַח יָדוֹ בִּמְשִׁיחַ יְהוָה וְנִקָּֽה׃
9
And David said to Abishai, Destroy him not: for who can stretch forth his hand against the LORD's anointed, and be guiltless?
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד חַי-יְהוָה כִּי אִם-יְהוָה יִגָּפֶנּוּ אֽוֹ-יוֹמוֹ יָבוֹא וָמֵת אוֹ בַמִּלְחָמָה יֵרֵד וְנִסְפָּֽה׃
10
David said furthermore, As the LORD liveth, the LORD shall smite him; or his day shall come to die; or he shall descend into battle, and perish.
חָלִילָה לִּי מֵֽיהוָה מִשְּׁלֹחַ יָדִי בִּמְשִׁיחַ יְהוָה וְעַתָּה קַח-נָא אֶֽת-הַחֲנִית אֲשֶׁר ‫(מראשתו)‬ מְרַאֲשֹׁתָיו וְאֶת-צַפַּחַת הַמַּיִם וְנֵֽלְכָה-לָּֽנוּ׃
11
The LORD forbid that I should stretch forth mine hand against the LORD's anointed: but, I pray thee, take thou now the spear that is at his bolster, and the cruse of water, and let us go.
וַיִּקַּח דָּוִד אֶֽת-הַחֲנִית וְאֶת-צַפַּחַת הַמַּיִם מֵרַֽאֲשֹׁתֵי שָׁאוּל וַיֵּֽלְכוּ לָהֶם וְאֵין רֹאֶה וְאֵין יוֹדֵעַ וְאֵין מֵקִיץ כִּי כֻלָּם יְשֵׁנִים כִּי תַּרְדֵּמַת יְהוָה נָֽפְלָה עֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
12
So David took the spear and the cruse of water from Saul's bolster; and they gat them away, and no man saw it, nor knew it, neither awaked: for they were all asleep; because a deep sleep from the LORD was fallen upon them.
לֹא-טוֹב הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה אֲשֶׁר עָשִׂיתָ חַי-יְהוָה כִּי בְנֵי-מָוֶת אַתֶּם אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-שְׁמַרְתֶּם עַל-אֲדֹֽנֵיכֶם עַל-מְשִׁיחַ יְהוָה וְעַתָּה׀ רְאֵה אֵֽי-חֲנִית הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֶת-צַפַּחַת הַמַּיִם אֲשֶׁר ‫(מראשתו)‬ מְרַאֲשֹׁתָֽיו׃
16
This thing is not good that thou hast done. As the LORD liveth, ye are worthy to die, because ye have not kept your master, the LORD's anointed. And now see where the king's spear is, and the cruse of water that was at his bolster.
וְעַתָּה יִֽשְׁמַֽע-נָא אֲדֹנִי הַמֶּלֶךְ אֵת דִּבְרֵי עַבְדּוֹ אִם-יְהוָה הֱסִֽיתְךָ בִי יָרַח מִנְחָה וְאִם׀ בְּנֵי הָֽאָדָם אֲרוּרִים הֵם לִפְנֵי יְהוָה כִּֽי-גֵרְשׁוּנִי הַיּוֹם מֵֽהִסְתַּפֵּחַ בְּנַֽחֲלַת יְהוָה לֵאמֹר לֵךְ עֲבֹד אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִֽים׃
19
Now therefore, I pray thee, let my lord the king hear the words of his servant. If the LORD have stirred thee up against me, let him accept an offering: but if they be the children of men, cursed be they before the LORD; for they have driven me out this day from abiding in the inheritance of the LORD, saying, Go, serve other gods.
