And it came to pass, when SaulH7586 was returnedH7725 from followingH310 the PhilistinesH6430, that it was toldH5046 him, sayingH559, Behold, DavidH1732 is in the wildernessH4057 of EngediH5872. {following: Heb. after}
Then SaulH7586 tookH3947 threeH7969 thousandH505 chosenH977 menH376 out of all IsraelH3478, and wentH3212 to seekH1245 DavidH1732 and his menH582 uponH6440 the rocksH6697 of the wild goatsH3277.
And he cameH935 to the sheepcotesH1448+H6629 by the wayH1870, where was a caveH4631; and SaulH7586 went inH935 to coverH5526 his feetH7272: and DavidH1732 and his menH582 remainedH3427 in the sidesH3411 of the caveH4631.
And the menH582 of DavidH1732 saidH559 unto him, Behold the dayH3117 of which the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto thee, Behold, I will deliverH5414 thine enemyH341 into thine handH3027, that thou mayest doH6213 to him as it shall seem goodH3190 unto theeH5869. Then DavidH1732 aroseH6965, and cut offH3772 the skirtH3671 of Saul'sH7586 robeH4598 privilyH3909. {Saul's…: Heb. the robe which was Saul's}
And it came to pass afterwardH310, that David'sH1732 heartH3820 smoteH5221 him, because he had cut offH3772 Saul'sH7586 skirtH3671.
And he saidH559 unto his menH582, The LORDH3068 forbidH2486 that I should doH6213 this thingH1697 unto my masterH113, the LORD'SH3068 anointedH4899, to stretch forthH7971 mine handH3027 against him, seeing he is the anointedH4899 of the LORDH3068.
So DavidH1732 stayedH8156 his servantsH582 with these wordsH1697, and sufferedH5414 them not to riseH6965 against SaulH7586. But SaulH7586 rose upH6965 out of the caveH4631, and wentH3212 on his wayH1870. {stayed: Heb. cut off}
DavidH1732 also aroseH6965 afterward, and went outH3318 of the caveH4631, and criedH7121 afterH310 SaulH7586, sayingH559, My lordH113 the kingH4428. And when SaulH7586 lookedH5027 behindH310 him, DavidH1732 stoopedH6915 with his faceH639 to the earthH776, and bowedH7812 himself.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 to SaulH7586, Wherefore hearestH8085 thou men'sH120 wordsH1697, sayingH559, Behold, DavidH1732 seekethH1245 thy hurtH7451?
Behold, this dayH3117 thine eyesH5869 have seenH7200 how that the LORDH3068 had deliveredH5414 thee to dayH3117 into mine handH3027 in the caveH4631: and some badeH559 me killH2026 thee: but mine eye sparedH2347 thee; and I saidH559, I will not put forthH7971 mine handH3027 against my lordH113; for he is the LORD'SH3068 anointedH4899.
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.
The LORDH3068 judgeH8199 between me and thee, and the LORDH3068 avengeH5358 me of thee: but mine handH3027 shall not be upon thee.
As saithH559 the proverbH4912 of the ancientsH6931, WickednessH7562 proceedethH3318 from the wickedH7563: but mine handH3027 shall not be upon thee.
AfterH310 whom is the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 come outH3318? afterH310 whom dost thou pursueH7291? afterH310 a deadH4191 dogH3611, afterH310 aH259 fleaH6550.
The LORDH3068 therefore be judgeH1781, and judgeH8199 between me and thee, and seeH7200, and pleadH7378 my causeH7379, and deliverH8199 me out of thine handH3027. {deliver: Heb. judge}
And it came to pass, when DavidH1732 had made an endH3615 of speakingH1696 these wordsH1697 unto SaulH7586, that SaulH7586 saidH559, Is this thy voiceH6963, my sonH1121 DavidH1732? And SaulH7586 lifted upH5375 his voiceH6963, and weptH1058.
And he saidH559 to DavidH1732, Thou art more righteousH6662 than I: for thou hast rewardedH1580 me goodH2896, whereas I have rewardedH1580 thee evilH7451.
And thou hast shewedH5046 this dayH3117 how that thou hast dealtH6213 wellH2896 with me: forasmuch as when the LORDH3068 had deliveredH5462 me into thine handH3027, thou killedstH2026 me not. {delivered: Heb. shut up}
For if a manH376 findH4672 his enemyH341, will he let him goH7971 wellH2896 awayH1870? wherefore the LORDH3068 rewardH7999 thee goodH2896 for that thou hast doneH6213 unto me this dayH3117.
And now, behold, I know wellH3045 that thou shalt surelyH4427 be kingH4427, and that the kingdomH4467 of IsraelH3478 shall be establishedH6965 in thine handH3027.
SwearH7650 now therefore unto me by the LORDH3068, that thou wilt notH518 cut offH3772 my seedH2233 afterH310 me, and that thou wilt not destroyH8045 my nameH8034 out of my father'sH1 houseH1004.
And DavidH1732 swareH7650 unto SaulH7586. And SaulH7586 wentH3212 homeH1004; but DavidH1732 and his menH582 gat them upH5927 unto the holdH4686.

Now therefore, I pray thee, let my lordH113 the kingH4428 hearH8085 the wordsH1697 of his servantH5650.
