And DavidH1732 fledH1272 from NaiothH5121 in RamahH7414, and cameH935 and saidH559 beforeH6440 JonathanH3083, What have I doneH6213? what is mine iniquityH5771? and what is my sinH2403 beforeH6440 thy fatherH1, that he seekethH1245 my lifeH5315?
And he saidH559 unto him, God forbidH2486; thou shalt not dieH4191: behold, my fatherH1 will doH6213+H6213 nothingH1697 either greatH1419 or smallH6996, but that he will shewH1540+H241 it me: and why should my fatherH1 hideH5641 this thingH1697 from me? it is not so. {shew…: Heb. uncover mine ear}
And DavidH1732 swareH7650 moreover, and saidH559, Thy fatherH1 certainlyH3045 knowethH3045 that I have foundH4672 graceH2580 in thine eyesH5869; and he saithH559, Let not JonathanH3083 knowH3045 this, lest he be grievedH6087: but trulyH199 as the LORDH3068 livethH2416, and as thy soulH5315 livethH2416, there is but a stepH6587 between me and deathH4194.
Then saidH559 JonathanH3083 unto DavidH1732, Whatsoever thy soulH5315 desirethH559, I will even doH6213 it for thee. {Whatsoever…: or, Say what is thy mind and I will do, etc} {desireth: Heb. speaketh, or, thinketh}
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto JonathanH3083, Behold, to morrowH4279 is the new moonH2320, and I should not failH3427 to sitH3427 with the kingH4428 at meatH398: but let me goH7971, that I may hideH5641 myself in the fieldH7704 unto the thirdH7992 day at evenH6153.
If thy fatherH1 at allH6485 missH6485 me, then sayH559, DavidH1732 earnestlyH7592 askedH7592 leave of me that he might runH7323 to BethlehemH1035 his cityH5892: for there is a yearlyH3117 sacrificeH2077 there for all the familyH4940. {sacrifice: or, feast}
If he sayH559 thus, It is wellH2896; thy servantH5650 shall have peaceH7965: but if he be veryH2734 wrothH2734, then be sureH3045 that evilH7451 is determinedH3615 by him.
Therefore thou shalt dealH6213 kindlyH2617 with thy servantH5650; for thou hast broughtH935 thy servantH5650 into a covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 with thee: notwithstanding, if there beH3426 in me iniquityH5771, slayH4191 me thyself; for why shouldest thou bringH935 me to thy fatherH1?
And JonathanH3083 saidH559, Far be it from theeH2486: for if I knewH3045 certainlyH3045 that evilH7451 were determinedH3615 by my fatherH1 to comeH935 upon thee, then would not I tellH5046 it thee?
Then saidH559 DavidH1732 to JonathanH3083, Who shall tellH5046 me? or what if thy fatherH1 answerH6030 thee roughlyH7186?
And JonathanH3083 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, ComeH3212, and let us go outH3318 into the fieldH7704. And they went outH3318 bothH8147 of them into the fieldH7704.
And JonathanH3083 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, when I have soundedH2713 my fatherH1 about to morrowH4279 any timeH6256, or the thirdH7992 day, and, behold, if there be goodH2895 toward DavidH1732, and I then sendH7971 not unto thee, and shewH1540+H241 it thee; {sounded: Heb. searched} {shew…: Heb. uncover thine ear}
The LORDH3068 doH6213 soH3541 and much moreH3254 to JonathanH3083: but if it pleaseH3190 my fatherH1 to do thee evilH7451, then I will shewH1540+H241 it thee, and send thee awayH7971, that thou mayest goH1980 in peaceH7965: and the LORDH3068 be with thee, as he hath been with my fatherH1. {shew…: Heb. uncover thine ear}
And thou shalt not only while yetH518 I liveH2416 shewH6213 me the kindnessH2617 of the LORDH3068, that I dieH4191 not:
But also thou shalt not cut offH3772 thy kindnessH2617 from my houseH1004 forH5704 everH5769: no, not when the LORDH3068 hath cut offH3772 the enemiesH341 of DavidH1732 every oneH376 from the faceH6440 of the earthH127.
So JonathanH3083 madeH3772 a covenant with the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, saying, Let the LORDH3068 even requireH1245 it at the handH3027 of David'sH1732 enemiesH341. {made: Heb. cut}
And JonathanH3083 caused DavidH1732 to swearH7650 againH3254, because he lovedH160 him: for he lovedH157 him as he lovedH160 his own soulH5315. {because…: or, by his love toward him}
Then JonathanH3083 saidH559 to DavidH1732, To morrowH4279 is the new moonH2320: and thou shalt be missedH6485, because thy seatH4186 will be emptyH6485. {empty: Heb. missed}
And when thou hast stayed three daysH8027, then thou shalt go downH3381 quicklyH3966, and comeH935 to the placeH4725 where thou didst hideH5641 thyself whenH3117 the businessH4639 was in hand, and shalt remainH3427 byH681 the stoneH68 EzelH237. {quickly: or, diligently: Heb. greatly} {when the…: Heb. in the day of the business} {Ezel: or, that sheweth the way}
And I will shootH3384 threeH7969 arrowsH2671 on the sideH6654 thereof, as though I shotH7971 at a markH4307.
And, behold, I will sendH7971 a ladH5288, saying, GoH3212, find outH4672 the arrowsH2671. If I expresslyH559 sayH559 unto the ladH5288, Behold, the arrowsH2671 are on this side of thee, takeH3947 them; then comeH935 thou: for there is peaceH7965 to thee, and no hurtH1697; as the LORDH3068 livethH2416. {no hurt: Heb. not any thing}
But if I sayH559 thus unto the young manH5958, Behold, the arrowsH2671 are beyondH1973 thee; go thy wayH3212: for the LORDH3068 hath sent thee awayH7971.
And as touching the matterH1697 which thou and I have spokenH1696 of, behold, the LORDH3068 be between thee and me forH5704 everH5769.
So DavidH1732 hidH5641 himself in the fieldH7704: and when the new moonH2320 was come, the kingH4428 sat him downH3427 to eatH398 meatH3899.
And the kingH4428 satH3427 upon his seatH4186, as at other timesH6471, even upon a seatH4186 by the wallH7023: and JonathanH3083 aroseH6965, and AbnerH74 satH3427 by Saul'sH7586 sideH6654, and David'sH1732 placeH4725 was emptyH6485.
Nevertheless SaulH7586 spakeH1696 not any thingH3972 that dayH3117: for he thoughtH559, Something hath befallenH4745 him, he is notH1115 cleanH2889; surely he is not cleanH2889.
And it came to pass on the morrowH4283, which was the secondH8145 day of the monthH2320, that David'sH1732 placeH4725 was emptyH6485: and SaulH7586 saidH559 unto JonathanH3083 his sonH1121, Wherefore comethH935 not the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 to meatH3899, neither yesterdayH8543, nor to dayH3117?
And JonathanH3083 answeredH6030 SaulH7586, DavidH1732 earnestlyH7592 askedH7592 leave of meH5978 to go to BethlehemH1035:
And he saidH559, Let me goH7971, I pray thee; for our familyH4940 hath a sacrificeH2077 in the cityH5892; and my brotherH251, he hath commandedH6680 me to be there: and now, if I have foundH4672 favourH2580 in thine eyesH5869, let me get awayH4422, I pray thee, and seeH7200 my brethrenH251. Therefore he comethH935 not unto the king'sH4428 tableH7979.
Then Saul'sH7586 angerH639 was kindledH2734 against JonathanH3083, and he saidH559 unto him, Thou sonH1121 of the perverseH5753 rebelliousH4780 woman, do not I knowH3045 that thou hast chosenH977 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 to thine own confusionH1322, and unto the confusionH1322 of thy mother'sH517 nakednessH6172? {Thou…: or, Thou perverse rebel: Heb. Son of perverse rebellion}
For as long asH3117 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 livethH2425 upon the groundH127, thou shalt not be establishedH3559, nor thy kingdomH4438. Wherefore now sendH7971 and fetchH3947 him unto me, for he shall surely dieH1121+H4194. {shall…: Heb. is the son of death}
And JonathanH3083 answeredH6030 SaulH7586 his fatherH1, and saidH559 unto him, Wherefore shall he be slainH4191? what hath he doneH6213?
And SaulH7586 castH2904 a javelinH2595 at him to smiteH5221 him: whereby JonathanH3083 knewH3045 that it was determinedH3617 of his fatherH1 to slayH4191 DavidH1732.
So JonathanH3083 aroseH6965 from the tableH7979 in fierceH2750 angerH639, and did eatH398 no meatH3899 the secondH8145 dayH3117 of the monthH2320: for he was grievedH6087 for DavidH1732, because his fatherH1 had done him shameH3637.
And it came to pass in the morningH1242, that JonathanH3083 went outH3318 into the fieldH7704 at the time appointedH4150 with DavidH1732, and a littleH6996 ladH5288 with him.
And he saidH559 unto his ladH5288, RunH7323, find outH4672 now the arrowsH2671 which I shootH3384. And as the ladH5288 ranH7323, he shotH3384 an arrowH2678 beyondH5674 him. {beyond…: Heb. to pass over him}
And when the ladH5288 was comeH935 to the placeH4725 of the arrowH2678 which JonathanH3083 had shotH3384, JonathanH3083 criedH7121 afterH310 the ladH5288, and saidH559, Is not the arrowH2678 beyondH1973 thee?
And JonathanH3083 criedH7121 afterH310 the ladH5288, Make speedH4120, hasteH2363, stayH5975 not. And Jonathan'sH3083 ladH5288 gathered upH3950 the arrowsH2671+H2678, and cameH935 to his masterH113.
But the ladH5288 knewH3045 not any thingH3972: only JonathanH3083 and DavidH1732 knewH3045 the matterH1697.
And JonathanH3083 gaveH5414 his artilleryH3627 unto his ladH5288, and saidH559 unto him, GoH3212, carryH935 them to the cityH5892. {artillery: Heb. instruments} {his lad: Heb. the lad that was his}
And as soon as the ladH5288 was goneH935, DavidH1732 aroseH6965 out of a place towardH681 the southH5045, and fellH5307 on his faceH639 to the groundH776, and bowedH7812 himself threeH7969 timesH6471: and they kissedH5401 oneH376 anotherH7453, and weptH1058 oneH376 with anotherH7453, until DavidH1732 exceededH1431.
And JonathanH3083 saidH559 to DavidH1732, GoH3212 in peaceH7965, forasmuch as we have swornH7650 bothH8147 of us in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 be between me and thee, and between my seedH2233 and thy seedH2233 forH5704 everH5769. And he aroseH6965 and departedH3212: and JonathanH3083 wentH935 into the cityH5892. {forasmuch…: or, the LORD be witness of that which etc}

And it was toldH5046 SaulH7586, sayingH559, Behold, DavidH1732 is at NaiothH5121 in RamahH7414.
And SaulH7586 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to takeH3947 DavidH1732: and when they sawH7200 the companyH3862 of the prophetsH5030 prophesyingH5012, and SamuelH8050 standingH5975 as appointedH5324 over them, the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 was upon the messengersH4397 of SaulH7586, and they also prophesiedH5012.
And when it was toldH5046 SaulH7586, he sentH7971 otherH312 messengersH4397, and they prophesiedH5012 likewise. And SaulH7586 sentH7971 messengersH4397 againH3254 the thirdH7992 time, and they prophesiedH5012 also.
Then wentH3212 he also to RamahH7414, and cameH935 to a greatH1419 wellH953 that is in SechuH7906: and he askedH7592 and saidH559, WhereH375 are SamuelH8050 and DavidH1732? And one saidH559, Behold, they be at NaiothH5121 in RamahH7414.
And he wentH3212 thither to NaiothH5121 in RamahH7414: and the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 was upon him also, and he wentH3212 onH1980, and prophesiedH5012, until he cameH935 to NaiothH5121 in RamahH7414.
And he stripped offH6584 his clothesH899 alsoH1571, and prophesiedH5012 beforeH6440 SamuelH8050 in like manner, and lay downH5307 nakedH6174 all that dayH3117 and all that nightH3915. Wherefore they sayH559, Is SaulH7586 also among the prophetsH5030? {lay: Heb. fell}
Behold, here I am: witnessH6030 against me before the LORDH3068, and before his anointedH4899: whose oxH7794 have I takenH3947? or whose assH2543 have I takenH3947? or whom have I defraudedH6231? whom have I oppressedH7533? or of whose handH3027 have I received any bribeH3724 to blindH5956 mine eyesH5869 therewith? and I will restoreH7725 it you. {bribe: Heb. ransom} {to blind…: or, that I should hide mine eyes at him}
And SaulH7586 wentH3212 on this sideH6654 of the mountainH2022, and DavidH1732 and his menH582 on that sideH6654 of the mountainH2022: and DavidH1732 made hasteH2648 to get awayH3212 for fearH6440 of SaulH7586; for SaulH7586 and his menH582 compassedH5849 DavidH1732 and his menH582 round aboutH5849 to takeH8610 them.
But there cameH935 a messengerH4397 unto SaulH7586, sayingH559, HasteH4116 thee, and comeH3212; for the PhilistinesH6430 have invadedH6584 the landH776. {invaded…: Heb. spread themselves upon, etc}
Wherefore SaulH7586 returnedH7725 from pursuingH7291 afterH310 DavidH1732, and wentH3212 againstH7125 the PhilistinesH6430: therefore they calledH7121 that placeH4725 SelahammahlekothH5555. {Selahammahlekoth: that is, The rock of divisions}
Moreover, my fatherH1, seeH7200, yea, seeH7200 the skirtH3671 of thy robeH4598 in my handH3027: for in that I cut offH3772 the skirtH3671 of thy robeH4598, and killedH2026 thee not, knowH3045 thou and seeH7200 that there is neither evilH7451 nor transgressionH6588 in mine handH3027, and I have not sinnedH2398 against thee; yet thou huntestH6658 my soulH5315 to takeH3947 it.
BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068, who hath not givenH5414 us as a preyH2964 to their teethH8127.
Our soulH5315 is escapedH4422 as a birdH6833 out of the snareH6341 of the fowlersH3369: the snareH6341 is brokenH7665, and we are escapedH4422.
Our helpH5828 is in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, who madeH6213 heavenH8064 and earthH776.
And he saidH559 to DavidH1732, Thou art more righteousH6662 than I: for thou hast rewardedH1580 me goodH2896, whereas I have rewardedH1580 thee evilH7451.
The LordG2962 knowethG1492 how to deliverG4506 the godlyG2152 out ofG1537 temptationsG3986, andG1161 to reserveG5083 the unjustG94 untoG1519 the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920 to be punishedG2849:
O LORDH3068 my GodH430, if I have doneH6213 this; if there beH3426 iniquityH5766 in my handsH3709;
If I have rewardedH1580 evilH7451 unto him that was at peaceH7999 with me; (yea, I have deliveredH2502 him that without causeH7387 is mine enemyH6887:)
Let the enemyH341 persecuteH7291 my soulH5315, and takeH5381 it; yea, let him tread downH7429 my lifeH2416 upon the earthH776, and layH7931 mine honourH3519 in the dustH6083. SelahH5542.
The LORDH3068 rewardedH1580 me according to my righteousnessH6664; according to the cleannessH1252 of my handsH3027 hath he recompensedH7725 me.
For I have keptH8104 the waysH1870 of the LORDH3068, and have not wickedly departedH7561 from my GodH430.
For all his judgmentsH4941 were before me, and I did not put awayH5493 his statutesH2708 from me.
I was also uprightH8549 before him, and I keptH8104 myself from mine iniquityH5771. {before: Heb. with}
Therefore hath the LORDH3068 recompensedH7725 me according to my righteousnessH6664, according to the cleannessH1252 of my handsH3027 in his eyesightH5869. {in…: Heb. before his eyes}
