To the chief MusicianH5329, MaschilH4905, A Psalm of DavidH1732, when DoegH1673 the EdomiteH130 cameH935 and toldH5046 SaulH7586, and saidH559 unto him, DavidH1732 is comeH935 to the houseH1004 of AhimelechH288. Why boastestH1984 thou thyself in mischiefH7451, O mightyH1368 man? the goodnessH2617 of GodH410 endureth continuallyH3117.
Thy tongueH3956 devisethH2803 mischiefsH1942; like a sharpH3913 razorH8593, workingH6213 deceitfullyH7423.
Thou lovestH157 evilH7451 more than goodH2896; and lyingH8267 rather than to speakH1696 righteousnessH6664. SelahH5542.
Thou lovestH157 all devouringH1105 wordsH1697, O thou deceitfulH4820 tongueH3956. {O thou…: or, and the deceitful tongue}
GodH410 shall likewise destroyH5422 thee for everH5331, he shall take thee awayH2846, and pluck thee outH5255 of thy dwelling placeH168, and root thee outH8327 of the landH776 of the livingH2416. SelahH5542. {destroy…: Heb. beat thee down}
The righteousH6662 also shall seeH7200, and fearH3372, and shall laughH7832 at him:
Lo, this is the manH1397 that madeH7760 not GodH430 his strengthH4581; but trustedH982 in the abundanceH7230 of his richesH6239, and strengthenedH5810 himself in his wickednessH1942. {wickedness: or, substance}
But I am like a greenH7488 olive treeH2132 in the houseH1004 of GodH430: I trustH982 in the mercyH2617 of GodH430 for everH5769 and everH5703.
I will praiseH3034 thee for everH5769, because thou hast doneH6213 it: and I will waitH6960 on thy nameH8034; for it is goodH2896 before thy saintsH2623.

For strangersH2114 are risen upH6965 against me, and oppressorsH6184 seekH1245 after my soulH5315: they have not setH7760 GodH430 before them. SelahH5542.

There were giantsH5303 in the earthH776 in those daysH3117; and also afterH310 thatH3651, whenH834 the sonsH1121 of GodH430 came inH935 unto the daughtersH1323 of menH120, and they bareH3205 children to them, the sameH1992 became mighty menH1368 which were of oldH5769, menH582 of renownH8034.
But the mercyH2617 of the LORDH3068 is from everlastingH5769 toH5704 everlastingH5769 upon them that fearH3373 him, and his righteousnessH6666 unto children'sH1121 childrenH1121;
Now a certain manH376 of the servantsH5650 of SaulH7586 was there that dayH3117, detainedH6113 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; and his nameH8034 was DoegH1673, an EdomiteH130, the chiefestH47 of the herdmenH7462 that belonged to SaulH7586.
Their tongueH3956 is as an arrowH2671 shot outH7819; it speakethH1696 deceitH4820: one speakethH1696 peaceablyH7965 to his neighbourH7453 with his mouthH6310, but in heartH7130 he layethH7760 his waitH696. {in heart: Heb. in the midst of him} {his wait: or, wait for him}
For the wickedH7563 boastethH1984 of his heart'sH5315 desireH8378, and blessethH1288 the covetousH1214, whom the LORDH3068 abhorrethH5006. {heart's: Heb. soul's} {blesseth…: or, the covetous blesseth himself, he abhorreth the LORD}
His mouthH6310 is fullH4390 of cursingH423 and deceitH4820 and fraudH8496: under his tongueH3956 is mischiefH5999 and vanityH205. {deceit: Heb. deceits} {vanity: or, iniquity}
And GODH3068 sawH7200 that the wickednessH7451 of manH120 was greatH7227 in the earthH776, and that every imaginationH3336 of the thoughtsH4284 of his heartH3820 was onlyH7535 evilH7451 continuallyH3117. {every…: or, the whole imagination: the Hebrew word signifieth not only the imagination, but also the purposes and desires} {continually: Heb. every day}
O give thanksH3034 unto the LORDH3068, for he is goodH2896: for his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769.
Then answeredH6030 DoegH1673 the EdomiteH130, which was setH5324 over the servantsH5650 of SaulH7586, and saidH559, I sawH7200 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 comingH935 to NobH5011, to AhimelechH288 the sonH1121 of AhitubH285.
And he enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068 for him, and gaveH5414 him victualsH6720, and gaveH5414 him the swordH2719 of GoliathH1555 the PhilistineH6430.
Then the kingH4428 sentH7971 to callH7121 AhimelechH288 the priestH3548, the sonH1121 of AhitubH285, and all his father'sH1 houseH1004, the priestsH3548 that were in NobH5011: and they cameH935 all of them to the kingH4428.
And SaulH7586 saidH559, HearH8085 now, thou sonH1121 of AhitubH285. And he answeredH559, Here I am, my lordH113. {Here…: Heb. Behold me}
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto him, Why have ye conspiredH7194 against me, thou and the sonH1121 of JesseH3448, in that thou hast givenH5414 him breadH3899, and a swordH2719, and hast enquiredH7592 of GodH430 for him, that he should riseH6965 against me, to lie in waitH693, as at this dayH3117?
Then AhimelechH288 answeredH6030 the kingH4428, and saidH559, And who is so faithfulH539 among all thy servantsH5650 as DavidH1732, which is the king'sH4428 son in lawH2860, and goethH5493 at thy biddingH4928, and is honourableH3513 in thine houseH1004?
Did I thenH3117 beginH2490 to enquireH7592 of GodH430 for him? be it far from meH2486: let not the kingH4428 imputeH7760 any thingH1697 unto his servantH5650, nor to all the houseH1004 of my fatherH1: for thy servantH5650 knewH3045 nothingH1697 of all this, lessH6996 or moreH1419. {less…: Heb. little or great}
And the kingH4428 saidH559, Thou shalt surelyH4191 dieH4191, AhimelechH288, thou, and all thy father'sH1 houseH1004.
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto the footmenH7323 that stoodH5324 about him, TurnH5437, and slayH4191 the priestsH3548 of the LORDH3068; because their handH3027 also is with DavidH1732, and because they knewH3045 when he fledH1272, and did not shewH1540+H241 it to me. But the servantsH5650 of the kingH4428 wouldH14 not put forthH7971 their handH3027 to fallH6293 upon the priestsH3548 of the LORDH3068. {footmen: or, guard: Heb. runners}
And the kingH4428 saidH559 to DoegH1673, TurnH5437 thou, and fallH6293 upon the priestsH3548. And DoegH1673 the EdomiteH130 turnedH5437, and he fellH6293 upon the priestsH3548, and slewH4191 on that dayH3117 fourscoreH8084 and fiveH2568 personsH376 that did wearH5375 a linenH906 ephodH646.
And NobH5011, the cityH5892 of the priestsH3548, smoteH5221 he with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719, both menH376 and womenH802, childrenH5768 and sucklingsH3243, and oxenH7794, and assesH2543, and sheepH7716, with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.
For all mannerH1697 of trespassH6588, whether it be for oxH7794, for assH2543, for sheepH7716, for raimentH8008, or for any manner of lost thingH9, which another challengethH559 to be his, the causeH1697 of both partiesH8147 shall comeH935 before the judgesH430; and whom the judgesH430 shall condemnH7561, he shall payH7999 doubleH8147 unto his neighbourH7453.
How long shall they utterH5042 and speakH1696 hard thingsH6277? and all the workersH6466 of iniquityH205 boastH559 themselves?
The wordsH1697 of his mouthH6310 are iniquityH205 and deceitH4820: he hath left offH2308 to be wiseH7919, and to do goodH3190.
He devisethH2803 mischiefH205 upon his bedH4904; he settethH3320 himself in a wayH1870 that is not goodH2896; he abhorrethH3988 not evilH7451. {mischief: or, vanity}
Thy mercyH2617, O LORDH3068, is in the heavensH8064; and thy faithfulnessH530 reacheth unto the cloudsH7834.
Thy righteousnessH6666 is like the greatH410 mountainsH2042; thy judgmentsH4941 are a greatH7227 deepH8415: O LORDH3068, thou preservestH3467 manH120 and beastH929. {the…: Heb. the mountains of God}

FrowardnessH8419 is in his heartH3820, he devisethH2790 mischiefH7451 continuallyH6256; he sowethH7971 discordH4066+H4090. {soweth: Heb. casteth forth}
He was a mightyH1368 hunterH6718 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: whereforeH3651 it is saidH559, Even as NimrodH5248 the mightyH1368 hunterH6718 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
ForG1063 menG444 shall beG2071 lovers of their own selvesG5367, covetousG5366, boastersG213, proudG5244, blasphemersG989, disobedientG545 to parentsG1118, unthankfulG884, unholyG462,
An heartH3820 that devisethH2790 wickedH205 imaginationsH4284, feetH7272 that be swiftH4116 in runningH7323 to mischiefH7451,
Now a certain manH376 of the servantsH5650 of SaulH7586 was there that dayH3117, detainedH6113 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; and his nameH8034 was DoegH1673, an EdomiteH130, the chiefestH47 of the herdmenH7462 that belonged to SaulH7586.
