H5288
And as soon as the lad
H935 [H8802]
was gone,
H1732
David
H6965 [H8804]
arose
H681
out of a place toward
H5045
the south,
H5307 [H8799]
and fell
H639
on his nose
H776
to the earth,
H7812 [H8691]
and bowed
H7969
himself three
H6471
times:
H5401 [H8799]
and they kissed
H376
one
H7453
another,
H1058 [H8799]
and wept
H376
one
H7453
with another,
H1732
but David
H1431 [H8689]
more so.

1
H1732
And David
H1272 [H8799]
fled
H5121
from Naioth
H7414
in Ramah,
H935 [H8799]
and came
H559 [H8799]
and said
H6440
at the face of
H3083
Jonathan,
H6213 [H8804]
What have I done?
H5771
what is my perversity?
H2403
and what is my sin
H6440
at the face of
H1
thy father,
H1245 [H8764]
that he seeketh
H5315
my life?
2
H559 [H8799]
And he said
H2486
to him, Far be it from thee;
H4191 [H8799]
thou shalt not die:
H1
behold, my father
H6213 H6213 [H8799]
will do
H1697
nothing
H1419
either great
H6996
or small,
H1540 H241 [H8799]
but that he will show
H1
it to me: and why should my father
H5641 [H8686]
hide
H1697
this thing from me? it is not so.
3
H1732
And David
H7650 [H8735]
swore
H559 [H8799]
moreover, and said,
H1
Thy father
H3045 [H8800]
certainly
H3045 [H8804]
knoweth
H4672 [H8804]
that I have found
H2580
grace
H5869
in thine eyes;
H559 [H8799]
and he saith,
H3083
Let not Jonathan
H3045 [H8799]
know
H6087 [H8735]
this, lest he should be grieved:
H199
but truly
H3068
as the LORD
H2416
liveth,
H5315
and as thy breath
H2416
liveth,
H6587
there is but a step
H4194
between me and death.
4
H559 [H8799]
Then said
H3083
Jonathan
H1732
to David,
H5315
Whatever thy breath
H559 [H8799]
desireth,
H6213 [H8799]
I will even do it for thee.
5
H1732
And David
H559 [H8799]
said
H3083
to Jonathan,
H4279
Behold, to morrow
H2320
is the new moon,
H3427 [H8800]
and I should not fail
H3427 [H8799]
to sit
H4428
with the king
H398 [H8800]
at the table:
H7971 [H8765]
but let me go,
H5641 [H8738]
that I may hide
H7704
myself in the field
H7992
to the third
H6153
day at evening.
6
H1
If thy father
H6485 [H8800]
shall at all
H6485 [H8799]
miss
H559 [H8804]
me, then say,
H1732
David
H7592 [H8736]
earnestly
H7592 [H8738]
asked
H7323 [H8800]
leave of me that he might run
H1035
to Bethlehem
H5892
his city:
H3117
for there is a yearly
H2077
sacrifice
H4940
there for all the family.
7
H559 [H8799]
If he shall say
H2896
thus, It is well;
H5650
thy servant
H7965
shall have peace:
H2734 [H8800]
but if he shall be very
H2734 [H8799]
angry,
H3045 [H8798]
then be sure
H7451
that evil
H3615 [H8804]
is determined by him.
8
H6213 [H8804]
Therefore thou shalt deal
H2617
mercifully
H5650
with thy servant;
H935 [H8689]
for thou hast brought
H5650
thy servant
H1285
into a covenant
H3068
of the LORD
H3426
with thee: however, if there is
H5771
in me perversity,
H4191 [H8685]
slay
H935 [H8686]
me thyself; for why shouldest thou bring
H1
me to thy father?
9
H3083
And Jonathan
H559 [H8799]
said,
H2486
Far be it from thee:
H3045 [H8799]
for if I knew
H3045 [H8800]
certainly
H7451
that evil
H3615 [H8804]
is determined
H1
by my father
H935 [H8800]
to come
H5046 [H8686]
upon thee, then would not I tell it thee?
10
H559 [H8799]
Then said
H1732
David
H3083
to Jonathan,
H5046 [H8686]
Who shall tell
H1
me? or what if thy father
H6030 [H8799]
shall answer
H7186
thee roughly?
11
H3083
And Jonathan
H559 [H8799]
said
H1732
to David,
H3212 [H8798]
Come,
H3318 [H8799]
and let us go out
H7704
into the field.
H3318 [H8799]
And they went out
H8147
both
H7704
of them into the field.
12
H3083
And Jonathan
H559 [H8799]
said
H1732
to David,
H3068
O LORD
H430
God
H3478
of Israel,
H2713 [H8799]
when I have sounded
H1
my father
H4279
about to morrow
H6256
any time,
H7992
or the third
H2895 [H8804]
day, and, behold, if there be good
H1732
toward David,
H7971 [H8799]
and I then send
H1540 H241 [H8804]
not to thee, and show it thee;
13
H3068
The LORD
H6213 [H8799]
do
H3541
so
H3254 [H8686]
and much more
H3083
to Jonathan:
H3190 [H8686]
but if it shall please
H1
my father
H7451
to do thee evil,
H1540 H241 [H8804]
then I will show
H7971 [H8765]
it to thee, and send thee away,
H1980 [H8804]
that thou mayest go
H7965
in peace:
H3068
and the LORD
H1
be with thee, as he hath been with my father.
14
H518
And thou shalt not only while yet
H2416
I live
H6213 [H8799]
show
H2617
me the mercy
H3068
of the LORD,
H4191 [H8799]
that I may not die:
15
H3772 [H8686]
But also thou shalt not withdraw
H2617
thy mercy
H1004
from my house
H5704
for
H5769
ever:
H3068
no, not when the LORD
H3772 [H8687]
hath cut off
H341 [H8802]
the enemies
H1732
of David
H376
every one
H6440
from the face
H127
of the soil.
16
H3083
So Jonathan
H3772 [H8799]
made
H1004
a covenant with the house
H1732
of David,
H3068
saying, Let the LORD
H1245 [H8765]
even require
H3027
it at the hand
H1732
of David's
H341 [H8802]
enemies.
17
H3083
And Jonathan
H1732
caused David
H7650 [H8687]
to swear
H3254 [H8686]
again,
H160
because he loved
H157 [H8804]
him: for he loved
H160
him as he loved
H5315
his own breath.
18
H3083
Then Jonathan
H559 [H8799]
said
H1732
to David,
H4279
To morrow
H2320
is the new moon:
H6485 [H8738]
and thou shalt be missed,
H4186
because thy seat
H6485 [H8735]
will be empty.
19
H8027 [H8765]
And when thou hast stayed three days,
H3381 [H8799]
then thou shalt go down
H3966
quickly,
H935 [H8804]
and come
H4725
to the place
H5641 [H8738]
where thou didst hide
H3117
thyself when
H4639
the business
H3427 [H8804]
was in hand, and shalt remain
H681
by
H68
the stone
H237
Ezel.
20
H3384 [H8686]
And I will shoot
H7969
three
H2671
arrows
H6654
on the side
H7971 [H8763]
of it, as though I shot
H4307
at a mark.
21
H7971 [H8799]
And, behold, I will send
H5288
a lad,
H3212 [H8798]
saying, Go,
H4672 [H8798]
find
H2671
the arrows.
H559 [H8800]
If I expressly
H559 [H8799]
say
H5288
to the lad,
H2671
Behold, the arrows
H3947 [H8798]
are on this side of thee, take
H935 [H8798]
them; then come
H7965
thou: for there is peace
H1697
to thee, and no hurt;
H3068
as the LORD
H2416
liveth.
22
H559 [H8799]
But if I say
H5958
thus to the young man,
H2671
Behold, the arrows
H1973
are beyond
H3212 [H8798]
thee; go thy way:
H3068
for the LORD
H7971 [H8765]
hath sent thee away.
23
H1697
And as to the matter
H1696 [H8765]
which thou and I have spoken
H3068
of, behold, the LORD
H5704
be between thee and me for
H5769
ever.
24
H1732
So David
H5641 [H8735]
hid
H7704
himself in the field:
H2320
and when the new moon
H4428
had come, the king
H3427 [H8799]
sat down
H398 [H8800]
to eat
H3899
food.
25
H4428
And the king
H3427 [H8799]
sat
H4186
upon his seat,
H6471
as at other times,
H4186
even upon a seat
H7023
by the wall:
H3083
and Jonathan
H6965 [H8799]
arose,
H74
and Abner
H3427 [H8799]
sat
H7586
by Saul's
H6654
side,
H1732
and David's
H4725
place
H6485 [H8735]
was empty.
26
H7586
Nevertheless Saul
H1696 [H8765]
spoke
H3972
not any thing
H3117
that day:
H559 [H8804]
for he thought,
H4745
Something hath befallen
H1115
him, he is not
H2889
clean;
H2889
surely he is not clean.
27
H4283
And it came to pass on the next day,
H8145
which was the second
H2320
day of the month,
H1732
that David's
H4725
place
H6485 [H8735]
was empty:
H7586
and Saul
H559 [H8799]
said
H3083
to Jonathan
H1121
his son,
H935 [H8804]
Why cometh
H1121
not the son
H3448
of Jesse
H3899
to eat,
H8543
neither yesterday,
H3117
nor to day?
28
H3083
And Jonathan
H6030 [H8799]
answered
H7586
Saul,
H1732
David
H7592 [H8736]
earnestly
H7592 [H8738]
asked
H5978
leave of me
H1035
to go to Bethlehem:
29
H559 [H8799]
And he said,
H7971 [H8761]
Let me go,
H4940
I pray thee; for our family
H2077
hath a sacrifice
H5892
in the city;
H251
and my brother,
H6680 [H8765]
he hath commanded
H4672 [H8804]
me to be there: and now, if I have found
H2580
favour
H5869
in thine eyes,
H4422 [H8735]
let me get away,
H7200 [H8799]
I pray thee, and see
H251
my brethren.
H935 [H8804]
Therefore he cometh
H4428
not to the king's
H7979
table.
30
H7586
Then Saul's
H639
anger
H2734 [H8799]
was kindled
H3083
against Jonathan,
H559 [H8799]
and he said
H1121
to him, Thou son
H5753 [H8737]
of the perverse
H4780
rebellious
H3045 [H8804]
woman, do not I know
H977 [H8802]
that thou hast chosen
H1121
the son
H3448
of Jesse
H1322
to thy own shame,
H1322
and to the shame
H517
of thy mother's
H6172
nakedness?
31
H3588
For
H3605
all
H9009
the
H3117
days
H834
that
H1121
the son
H3448
of Jesse
H2425 [H8804]
liveth
H5921
upon
H9009
the
H127
soil,
H859
thou
H9002
and
H9021
thy
H4438
kingdom
H3808
shalt not
H3559 [H8735]
be established.
H9002
Therefore
H6258
now
H7971 [H8798]
send
H9001
and
H3947 [H8798]
bring
H9033
him
H413
to
H9030
me,
H3588
for
H1931
he
H1121
is a son
H4194
of death.
32
H3083
And Jonathan
H6030 [H8799]
answered
H7586
Saul
H1
his father,
H559 [H8799]
and said
H4191 [H8714]
to him, Why shall he be slain?
H6213 [H8804]
what hath he done?
33
H7586
And Saul
H2904 [H8686]
cast
H2595
a javelin
H5221 [H8687]
at him to smite
H3083
him: by which Jonathan
H3045 [H8799]
knew
H3617
that it was determined
H1
by his father
H4191 [H8687]
to slay
H1732
David.
34
H3083
So Jonathan
H6965 [H8799]
arose
H7979
from the table
H2750
in burning
H639
anger,
H398 [H8804]
and ate
H3899
no food
H8145
the second
H3117
day
H2320
of the month:
H6087 [H8738]
for he was grieved
H1732
for David,
H1
because his father
H3637 [H8689]
had done him shame.
35
H1242
And it came to pass in the morning,
H3083
that Jonathan
H3318 [H8799]
went out
H7704
into the field
H4150
at the time appointed
H1732
with David,
H6996
and a little
H5288
lad with him.
36
H559 [H8799]
And he said
H5288
to his lad,
H7323 [H8798]
Run,
H4672 [H8798]
find
H2671
now the arrows
H3384 [H8688]
which I shoot.
H5288
And as the lad
H7323 [H8801]
ran,
H3384 [H8804]
he shot
H2678
an arrow
H5674 [H8687]
beyond him.
37
H5288
And when the lad
H935 [H8799]
had come
H4725
to the place
H2678
of the arrow
H3083
which Jonathan
H3384 [H8804]
had shot,
H3083
Jonathan
H7121 [H8799]
called
H310
after
H5288
the lad,
H559 [H8799]
and said,
H2678
Is not the arrow
H1973
beyond thee?
38
H3083
And Jonathan
H7121 [H8799]
called
H310
after
H5288
the lad,
H4120
Make speed,
H2363 [H8798]
haste,
H5975 [H8799]
stay
H3083
not. And Jonathan's
H5288
lad
H3950 [H8762]
gathered up
H2671 H2678 [H8675]
the arrows,
H935 [H8799]
and came
H113
to his master.
39
H5288
But the lad
H3045 [H8804]
knew
H3972
not any thing:
H3083
only Jonathan
H1732
and David
H3045 [H8804]
knew
H1697
the matter.
40
H3083
And Jonathan
H5414 [H8799]
gave
H3627
his weapons
H5288
to his lad,
H559 [H8799]
and said
H3212 [H8798]
to him, Go,
H935 [H8685]
carry
H5892
them to the city.
41
H5288
And as soon as the lad
H935 [H8802]
was gone,
H1732
David
H6965 [H8804]
arose
H681
out of a place toward
H5045
the south,
H5307 [H8799]
and fell
H639
on his nose
H776
to the earth,
H7812 [H8691]
and bowed
H7969
himself three
H6471
times:
H5401 [H8799]
and they kissed
H376
one
H7453
another,
H1058 [H8799]
and wept
H376
one
H7453
with another,
H1732
but David
H1431 [H8689]
more so.
42
H3083
And Jonathan
H559 [H8799]
said
H1732
to David,
H3212 [H8798]
Go
H7965
in peace,
H7650 [H8738]
forasmuch as we have sworn
H8147
both
H8034
of us in the name
H3068
of the LORD,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H3068
The LORD
H2233
be between me and thee, and between my seed
H2233
and thy seed
H5704
for
H5769
ever.
H6965 [H8799]
And he arose
H3212 [H8799]
and departed:
H3083
and Jonathan
H935 [H8802]
went
H5892
into the city.
1 Samuel 18:1
1 Samuel 18:1-30
1
H3615 [H8763]
And it came to pass, when he had finished
H1696 [H8763]
speaking
H7586
to Saul,
H5315
that the breath
H3083
of Jonathan
H7194 [H8738]
was knit
H5315
with the breath
H1732
of David,
H3083
and Jonathan
H157 [H8799]
loved
H5315
him as his own breath.
2
H7586
And Saul
H3947 [H8799]
took
H3117
him that day,
H5414 [H8804]
and would let
H7725 [H8800]
him go no more home
H1
to his father's
H1004
house.
3
H3083
Then Jonathan
H1732
and David
H3772 [H8799]
made
H1285
a covenant,
H160
because he loved
H5315
him as his own breath.
4
H3083
And Jonathan
H6584 [H8691]
stripped
H4598
himself of the robe
H5414 [H8799]
that was upon him, and gave
H1732
it to David,
H4055
and his garments,
H2719
even to his sword,
H7198
and to his bow,
H2289
and to his belt.

H1732
And David
H3318 [H8799]
went out
H7586
wherever Saul
H7971 [H8799]
sent
H7919 [H8686]
him, and behaved himself prudently:
H7586
and Saul
H7760 [H8799]
set
H582
him over the men
H4421
of war,
H3190 [H8799]
and he was accepted
H5869
in the eyes
H5971
of all the people,
H5869
and also in the eyes
H7586
of Saul's
H5650
servants.
6
H935 [H8800]
And it came to pass as they came,
H1732
when David
H7725 [H8800]
had returned
H5221 [H8687]
from the slaughter
H6430
of the Philistine,
H802
that the women
H3318 [H8799]
came out
H5892
of all the cities
H3478
of Israel,
H7891 [H8800]
singing
H4246
and dancing,
H7125 [H8800]
to meet
H4428
king
H7586
Saul,
H8596
with tabrets,
H8057
with joy,
H7991
and with instruments of music.
7
H802
And the women
H6030 [H8799]
spoke to
H7832 [H8764]
one another as they played,
H559 [H8799]
and said,
H7586
Saul
H5221 [H8689]
hath slain
H505
his thousands,
H1732
and David
H7233
his ten thousands.
8
H7586
And Saul
H3966
was very
H2734 [H8799]
angry,
H1697
and the saying
H3415 H5869 [H8799]
displeased
H559 [H8799]
him; and he said,
H5414 [H8804]
They have ascribed
H1732
to David
H7233
ten thousands,
H5414 [H8804]
and to me they have ascribed
H505
thousands:
H4410
and what can he have more but the kingdom?
9
H7586
And Saul
H5770 [H8802]
kept a jealous eye on
H1732
David
H3117
from that day
H1973
and onward.
10
H4283
And it came to pass on the next day,
H7451
that the evil
H7307
spirit
H430
from God
H6743 [H8799]
came
H7586
upon Saul,
H5012 [H8691]
and he prophesied
H8432
in the midst
H1004
of the house:
H1732
and David
H5059 [H8764]
played
H3027
with his hand,
H3117
as at other times:
H2595
and there was a javelin
H7586
in Saul's
H3027
hand.
11
H7586
And Saul
H2904 [H8686]
cast
H2595
the javelin;
H559 [H8799]
for he said,
H5221 [H8686]
I will smite
H1732
David
H7023
even to the wall.
H1732
And David
H5437 [H8735]
escaped
H6440
from his face
H6471
twice.
12
H7586
And Saul
H3372 [H8799]
was afraid
H6440
of
H1732
David,
H3068
because the LORD
H5493 [H8804]
was with him, and had departed
H7586
from Saul.
13
H7586
Therefore Saul
H5493 [H8686]
removed
H7760 [H8799]
him from him, and made
H8269
him his captain
H505
over a thousand;
H3318 [H8799]
and he went out
H935 [H8799]
and came in
H6440
at the face of
H5971
the people.
14
H1732
And David
H7919 [H8688]
behaved himself prudently
H1870
in all his ways;
H3068
and the LORD was with him.
15
H7586
Therefore when Saul
H7200 [H8799]
saw
H7919 0
that he behaved
H3966
himself very
H7919 [H8688]
prudently,
H1481 [H8799]
he was afraid
H6440
of him.
16
H3478
But all Israel
H3063
and Judah
H157 [H8802]
loved
H1732
David,
H3318 [H8802]
because he went out
H935 [H8802]
and came in
H6440
at the face of them.
17
H7586
And Saul
H559 [H8799]
said
H1732
to David,
H1419
Behold my elder
H1323
daughter
H4764
Merab,
H5414 [H8799]
her will I give
H802
thee for a wife:
H1121 H2428
only be thou valiant
H3898 [H8734]
for me, and fight
H3068
the LORD'S
H4421
battles.
H7586
For Saul
H559 [H8804]
said,
H3027
Let not my hand
H3027
be upon him, but let the hand
H6430
of the Philistines be upon him.
18
H1732
And David
H559 [H8799]
said
H7586
to Saul,
H2416
Who am I? and what is my life,
H1
or my father's
H4940
family
H3478
in Israel,
H2860
that I should be son in law
H4428
to the king?
19
H6256
But it came to pass at the time
H4764
when Merab
H7586
Saul's
H1323
daughter
H5414 [H8800]
should have been given
H1732
to David,
H5414 [H8738]
that she was given
H5741
to Adriel
H4259
the Meholathite
H802
for a wife.
20
H4324
And Michal
H7586
Saul's
H1323
daughter
H157 [H8799]
loved
H1732
David:
H5046 [H8686]
and they told
H7586
Saul,
H1697
and the thing
H3474 H5869 [H8799]
pleased him.
21
H7586
And Saul
H559 [H8799]
said,
H5414 [H8799]
I will give
H4170
her to him, that she may be a snare
H3027
to him, and that the hand
H6430
of the Philistines
H7586
may be against him. Therefore Saul
H559 [H8799]
said
H1732
to David,
H3117
Thou shalt this day
H2859 [H8691]
be my son in law
H8147
in the one of the two.
22
H7586
And Saul
H6680 [H8762]
commanded
H5650
his servants,
H1696 [H8761]
saying, Speak
H1732
with David
H3909
secretly,
H559 [H8800]
and say,
H4428
Behold, the king
H2654 [H8804]
hath delight
H5650
in thee, and all his servants
H157 [H8804]
love
H4428
thee: now therefore be the king's
H2859 [H8690]
son in law.
23
H7586
And Saul's
H5650
servants
H1696 [H8762]
spoke
H1697
those words
H241
in the ears
H1732
of David.
H1732
And David
H559 [H8799]
said,
H5869
Seemeth
H7043 [H8738]
it to you a light
H4428
thing to be a king's
H2859 [H8692]
son in law,
H7326 [H8802]
seeing that I am a poor
H376
man,
H7034 [H8737]
and lightly esteemed?
24
H5650
And the servants
H7586
of Saul
H5046 [H8686]
told
H559 [H8800]
him, saying,
H1697
On this manner
H1696 [H8765]
spoke
H1732
David.
25
H7586
And Saul
H559 [H8799]
said,
H559 [H8799]
Thus shall ye say
H1732
to David,
H4428
The king
H2656
desireth
H4119
not any dowry,
H3967
but an hundred
H6190
foreskins
H6430
of the Philistines,
H5358 [H8736]
to be avenged
H4428
of the king's
H341 [H8802]
enemies.
H7586
But Saul
H2803 [H8804]
thought
H1732
to make David
H5307 [H8687]
fall
H3027
by the hand
H6430
of the Philistines.
26
H5650
And when his servants
H5046 [H8686]
told
H1732
David
H1697
these words,
H3474 H1697 H5869 [H8799]
it pleased
H1732
David
H4428
well to be the king's
H2859 [H8692]
son in law:
H3117
and the days
H4390 [H8804]
had not expired.
27
H1732
Therefore David
H6965 [H8799]
arose
H3212 [H8799]
and went,
H582
he and his men,
H5221 [H8686]
and slew
H6430
of the Philistines
H3967
two hundred
H376
men;
H1732
and David
H935 [H8686]
brought
H6190
their foreskins,
H4390 [H8762]
and they gave them in full number
H4428
to the king,
H4428
that he might be the king's
H2859 [H8692]
son in law.
H7586
And Saul
H5414 [H8799]
gave
H4324
him Michal
H1323
his daughter
H802
for a wife.
28
H7586
And Saul
H7200 [H8799]
saw
H3045 [H8799]
and knew
H3068
that the LORD
H1732
was with David,
H4324
and that Michal
H7586
Saul's
H1323
daughter
H157 [H8804]
loved him.
29
H7586
And Saul
H3254 [H8686]
was yet the more
H3372 [H8800]
afraid
H6440
of
H1732
David;
H7586
and Saul
H1732
became David's
H341 [H8802]
enemy
H3117
continually.
30
H8269
Then the princes
H6430
of the Philistines
H3318 [H8799]
went forth:
H1767
and it came to pass, after
H3318 [H8800]
they went forth,
H1732
that David
H7919 [H8804]
behaved himself more prudently
H5650
than all the servants
H7586
of Saul;
H8034
so that his name
H3966
was much
H3365 [H8799]
esteemed.
1 Samuel 18:1-4
1
H3615 [H8763]
And it came to pass, when he had finished
H1696 [H8763]
speaking
H7586
to Saul,
H5315
that the breath
H3083
of Jonathan
H7194 [H8738]
was knit
H5315
with the breath
H1732
of David,
H3083
and Jonathan
H157 [H8799]
loved
H5315
him as his own breath.
2
H7586
And Saul
H3947 [H8799]
took
H3117
him that day,
H5414 [H8804]
and would let
H7725 [H8800]
him go no more home
H1
to his father's
H1004
house.
2 Samuel 1:1-27
1
H310
Now it came to pass after
H4194
the death
H7586
of Saul,
H1732
when David
H7725 [H8804]
had returned
H5221 [H8687]
from the slaughter
H6002
of the Amalekites,
H1732
and David
H3427 [H8799]
had abode
H8147
two
H3117
days
H6860
in Ziklag;
2
H7992
It came even to pass on the third
H3117
day,
H376
that, behold, a man
H935 [H8802]
came
H4264
out of the camp
H7586
from Saul
H899
with his clothes
H7167 [H8803]
torn,
H127
and soil
H7218
upon his head:
H935 [H8800]
and so it was, when he came
H1732
to David,
H5307 [H8799]
that he fell
H776
to the earth,
H7812 [H8691]
and bowed down.
3
H1732
And David
H559 [H8799]
said
H935 [H8799]
to him, From where comest
H559 [H8799]
thou? And he said
H4264
to him, Out of the camp
H3478
of Israel
H4422 [H8738]
have I escaped.
4
H1732
And David
H559 [H8799]
said
H4100
to him, How
H1697
went the matter?
H5046 [H8685]
I pray thee, tell
H559 [H8799]
me. And he answered,
H5971
That the people
H5127 [H8804]
have fled
H4421
from the battle,
H7235 [H8687]
and many
H5971
of the people
H5307 [H8804]
also have fallen
H4191 [H8799]
and are dead;
H7586
and Saul
H3083
and Jonathan
H1121
his son
H4191 [H8804]
are dead also.
5
H1732
And David
H559 [H8799]
said
H5288
to the young man
H5046 [H8688]
that told
H3045 [H8804]
him, How knowest
H7586
thou that Saul
H3083
and Jonathan
H1121
his son
H4191 [H8804]
are dead?
6
H5288
And the young man
H5046 [H8688]
that told
H559 [H8799]
him said,
H7136 [H8738]
As I happened
H7122 [H8736]
by chance
H2022
upon mount
H1533
Gilboa,
H7586
behold, Saul
H8172 [H8737]
leaned
H2595
upon his spear;
H7393
and, lo, the chariots
H1167 H6571
and horsemen
H1692 [H8689]
followed hard after him.
7
H6437 [H8799]
And when he looked
H310
behind
H7200 [H8799]
him, he saw
H7121 [H8799]
me, and called
H559 [H8799]
to me. And I answered, Here am I.
8
H559 [H8799]
And he said
H559 [H8799]
to me, Who art thou? And I answered
H6003
him, I am an Amalekite.
9
H559 [H8799]
He said
H5975 [H8798]
to me again, Stand,
H4191 [H8786]
I pray thee, upon me, and slay
H7661
me: for anguish
H270 [H8804]
is come
H5315
upon me, because my life is yet whole in me.
10
H5975 [H8799]
So I stood
H4191 [H8787]
upon him, and slew
H3045 [H8804]
him, because I was sure
H2421 [H8799]
that he could not live
H310
after
H5307 [H8800]
that he had fallen:
H3947 [H8799]
and I took
H5145
the crown
H7218
that was upon his head,
H685
and the bracelet
H2220
that was on his arm,
H935 [H8686]
and have brought
H113
them here to my lord.
11
H1732
Then David
H2388 [H8686]
took hold
H899
on his clothes,
H7167 [H8799]
and tore
H582
them; and likewise all the men that were with him:
12
H5594 [H8799]
And they mourned,
H1058 [H8799]
and wept,
H6684 [H8799]
and fasted
H6153
until evening,
H7586
for Saul,
H3083
and for Jonathan
H1121
his son,
H5971
and for the people
H3068
of the LORD,
H1004
and for the house
H3478
of Israel;
H5307 [H8804]
because they had fallen
H2719
by the sword.
13
H1732
And David
H559 [H8799]
said
H5288
to the young man
H5046 [H8688]
that told
H559 [H8799]
him, From where art thou? And he answered,
H1121
I am the son
H376
of a man
H1616
who is a guest,
H6003
an Amalekite.
14
H1732
And David
H559 [H8799]
said
H3372 [H8804]
to him, How wast thou not afraid
H7971 [H8800]
to stretch forth
H3027
thine hand
H7843 [H8763]
to decay
H3068
the LORD'S
H4899
anointed?
15
H1732
And David
H7121 [H8799]
called
H259
one
H5288
of the young men,
H559 [H8799]
and said,
H5066 [H8798]
Go near,
H6293 [H8798]
and fall
H5221 [H8686]
upon him. And he smote
H4191 [H8799]
him that he died.
16
H1732
And David
H559 [H8799]
said
H1818
to him, Thy blood
H7218
be upon thy head;
H6310
for thy mouth
H6030 [H8804]
hath testified
H559 [H8800]
against thee, saying,
H4191 [H8790]
I have slain
H3068
the LORD'S
H4899
anointed.
17
H1732
And David
H6969 [H8787]
lamented
H7015
with this lamentation
H7586
over Saul
H3083
and over Jonathan
H1121
his son:
18
H559 [H8799]
(Also he told
H3925 [H8763]
them to teach
H1121
the sons
H3063
of Judah
H7198
the use of the bow:
H3789 [H8803]
behold, it is written
H5612
in the book
H3477
of Jasher.)
19
H6643
Thy splendor,
H3478
O Israel
H2491
is slain
H1116
upon thy high places:
H1368
how are the mighty
H5307 [H8804]
fallen!
20
H5046 [H8686]
Tell
H1661
it not in Gath,
H1319 [H8762]
proclaim
H2351
it not in the streets
H831
of Askelon;
H1323
lest the daughters
H6430
of the Philistines
H8055 [H8799]
rejoice,
H1323
lest the daughters
H6189
of the uncircumcised
H5937 [H8799]
triumph.
21
H2022
Ye mountains
H1533
of Gilboa,
H2919
let there be no dew,
H4306
neither rain,
H7704
upon you, nor fields
H8641
of offerings:
H4043
for there the shield
H1368
of the mighty
H1602 [H8738]
is vilely cast away,
H4043
the shield
H7586
of Saul,
H4899
as though he had not been anointed
H8081
with oil.
22
H1818
From the blood
H2491
of the slain,
H2459
from the fat
H1368
of the mighty,
H7198
the bow
H3083
of Jonathan
H7734 [H8738]
turned
H268
not back,
H2719
and the sword
H7586
of Saul
H7725 [H8799]
returned
H7387
not empty.
23
H7586
Saul
H3083
and Jonathan
H157 [H8737]
were lovely
H5273
and pleasant
H2416
in their lives,
H4194
and in their death
H6504 [H8738]
they were not divided:
H7043 [H8804]
they were swifter
H5404
than eagles,
H1396 [H8804]
they were stronger
H738
than lions.
24
H1323
Ye daughters
H3478
of Israel,
H1058 [H8798]
weep over
H7586
Saul,
H3847 [H8688]
who clothed
H8144
you in scarlet,
H5730
with other delights,
