And it came to pass, when he had made an endH3615 of speakingH1696 unto SaulH7586, that the soulH5315 of JonathanH3083 was knitH7194 with the soulH5315 of DavidH1732, and JonathanH3083 lovedH157 him as his own soulH5315.
And SaulH7586 tookH3947 him that dayH3117, and would letH5414 him go no more homeH7725 to his father'sH1 houseH1004.
Then JonathanH3083 and DavidH1732 madeH3772 a covenantH1285, because he lovedH160 him as his own soulH5315.
And JonathanH3083 strippedH6584 himself of the robeH4598 that was upon him, and gaveH5414 it to DavidH1732, and his garmentsH4055, even to his swordH2719, and to his bowH7198, and to his girdleH2289.
And DavidH1732 went outH3318 whithersoever SaulH7586 sentH7971 him, and behaved himself wiselyH7919: and SaulH7586 setH7760 him over the menH582 of warH4421, and he was acceptedH3190 in the sightH5869 of all the peopleH5971, and also in the sightH5869 of Saul'sH7586 servantsH5650. {behaved…: or, prospered}
And it came to pass as they cameH935, when DavidH1732 was returnedH7725 from the slaughterH5221 of the PhilistineH6430, that the womenH802 came outH3318 of all citiesH5892 of IsraelH3478, singingH7891 and dancingH4246, to meetH7125 kingH4428 SaulH7586, with tabretsH8596, with joyH8057, and with instrumentsH7991 of musick. {Philistine: or, Philistines} {instruments…: Heb. three stringed instruments}
And the womenH802 answeredH6030 one another as they playedH7832, and saidH559, SaulH7586 hath slainH5221 his thousandsH505, and DavidH1732 his ten thousandsH7233.
And SaulH7586 was veryH3966 wrothH2734, and the sayingH1697 displeasedH3415+H5869 him; and he saidH559, They have ascribedH5414 unto DavidH1732 ten thousandsH7233, and to me they have ascribedH5414 but thousandsH505: and what can he have more but the kingdomH4410? {displeased him: Heb. was evil in his eyes}
And SaulH7586 eyedH5770 DavidH1732 from that dayH3117 and forwardH1973.
And it came to pass on the morrowH4283, that the evilH7451 spiritH7307 from GodH430 cameH6743 upon SaulH7586, and he prophesiedH5012 in the midstH8432 of the houseH1004: and DavidH1732 playedH5059 with his handH3027, as at other timesH3117: and there was a javelinH2595 in Saul'sH7586 handH3027.
And SaulH7586 castH2904 the javelinH2595; for he saidH559, I will smiteH5221 DavidH1732 even to the wallH7023 with it. And DavidH1732 avoided outH5437 of his presenceH6440 twiceH6471.
And SaulH7586 was afraidH3372 ofH6440 DavidH1732, because the LORDH3068 was with him, and was departedH5493 from SaulH7586.
Therefore SaulH7586 removedH5493 him from him, and madeH7760 him his captainH8269 over a thousandH505; and he went outH3318 and came inH935 beforeH6440 the peopleH5971.
And DavidH1732 behaved himself wiselyH7919 in all his waysH1870; and the LORDH3068 was with him. {behaved…: or, prospered}
Wherefore when SaulH7586 sawH7200 that he behavedH7919 himself veryH3966 wiselyH7919, he was afraidH1481 ofH6440 him.
But all IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063 lovedH157 DavidH1732, because he went outH3318 and came inH935 beforeH6440 them.
And SaulH7586 saidH559 to DavidH1732, Behold my elderH1419 daughterH1323 MerabH4764, her will I giveH5414 thee to wifeH802: only be thou valiantH1121+H2428 for me, and fightH3898 the LORD'SH3068 battlesH4421. For SaulH7586 saidH559, Let not mine handH3027 be upon him, but let the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430 be upon him. {valiant: Heb. a son of valour}
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, Who am I? and what is my lifeH2416, or my father'sH1 familyH4940 in IsraelH3478, that I should be son in lawH2860 to the kingH4428?
But it came to pass at the timeH6256 when MerabH4764 Saul'sH7586 daughterH1323 should have been givenH5414 to DavidH1732, that she was givenH5414 unto AdrielH5741 the MeholathiteH4259 to wifeH802.
And MichalH4324 Saul'sH7586 daughterH1323 lovedH157 DavidH1732: and they toldH5046 SaulH7586, and the thingH1697 pleasedH3474+H5869 him. {pleased him: Heb. was right in his eyes}
And SaulH7586 saidH559, I will giveH5414 him her, that she may be a snareH4170 to him, and that the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430 may be against him. Wherefore SaulH7586 saidH559 to DavidH1732, Thou shalt this dayH3117 be my son in lawH2859 in the one of the twainH8147.
And SaulH7586 commandedH6680 his servantsH5650, saying, CommuneH1696 with DavidH1732 secretlyH3909, and sayH559, Behold, the kingH4428 hath delightH2654 in thee, and all his servantsH5650 loveH157 thee: now therefore be the king'sH4428 son in lawH2859.
And Saul'sH7586 servantsH5650 spakeH1696 those wordsH1697 in the earsH241 of DavidH1732. And DavidH1732 saidH559, SeemethH5869 it to you a lightH7043 thing to be a king'sH4428 son in lawH2859, seeing that I am a poorH7326 manH376, and lightly esteemedH7034?
And the servantsH5650 of SaulH7586 toldH5046 him, sayingH559, On this mannerH1697 spakeH1696 DavidH1732. {On…: Heb. According to these words}
And SaulH7586 saidH559, Thus shall ye sayH559 to DavidH1732, The kingH4428 desirethH2656 not any dowryH4119, but an hundredH3967 foreskinsH6190 of the PhilistinesH6430, to be avengedH5358 of the king'sH4428 enemiesH341. But SaulH7586 thoughtH2803 to make DavidH1732 fallH5307 by the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430.
And when his servantsH5650 toldH5046 DavidH1732 these wordsH1697, it pleasedH3474+H1697+H5869 DavidH1732 well to be the king'sH4428 son in lawH2859: and the daysH3117 were not expiredH4390. {expired: Heb. fulfilled}
Wherefore DavidH1732 aroseH6965 and wentH3212, he and his menH582, and slewH5221 of the PhilistinesH6430 two hundredH3967 menH376; and DavidH1732 broughtH935 their foreskinsH6190, and they gave them in full taleH4390 to the kingH4428, that he might be the king'sH4428 son in lawH2859. And SaulH7586 gaveH5414 him MichalH4324 his daughterH1323 to wifeH802.
And SaulH7586 sawH7200 and knewH3045 that the LORDH3068 was with DavidH1732, and that MichalH4324 Saul'sH7586 daughterH1323 lovedH157 him.
And SaulH7586 was yet the moreH3254 afraidH3372 ofH6440 DavidH1732; and SaulH7586 became David'sH1732 enemyH341 continuallyH3117.
Then the princesH8269 of the PhilistinesH6430 went forthH3318: and it came to pass, afterH1767 they went forthH3318, that DavidH1732 behaved himself more wiselyH7919 than all the servantsH5650 of SaulH7586; so that his nameH8034 was muchH3966 set byH3365. {set by: Heb. precious}
And SaulH7586 spakeH1696 to JonathanH3129 his sonH1121, and to all his servantsH5650, that they should killH4191 DavidH1732.
And SaulH7586 spakeH1696 to JonathanH3129 his sonH1121, and to all his servantsH5650, that they should killH4191 DavidH1732.
But JonathanH3083 Saul'sH7586 sonH1121 delightedH2654 muchH3966 in DavidH1732: and JonathanH3083 toldH5046 DavidH1732, sayingH559, SaulH7586 my fatherH1 seekethH1245 to killH4191 thee: now therefore, I pray thee, take heedH8104 to thyself until the morningH1242, and abideH3427 in a secretH5643 place, and hideH2244 thyself:
And I will go outH3318 and standH5975 besideH3027 my fatherH1 in the fieldH7704 where thou art, and I will communeH1696 with my fatherH1 of thee; and whatH4100 I seeH7200, that I will tellH5046 thee.
And JonathanH3083 spakeH1696 goodH2896 of DavidH1732 unto SaulH7586 his fatherH1, and saidH559 unto him, Let not the kingH4428 sinH2398 against his servantH5650, against DavidH1732; because he hath not sinnedH2398 against thee, and because his worksH4639 have been to thee-ward veryH3966 goodH2896:
For he did putH7760 his lifeH5315 in his handH3709, and slewH5221 the PhilistineH6430, and the LORDH3068 wroughtH6213 a greatH1419 salvationH8668 for all IsraelH3478: thou sawestH7200 it, and didst rejoiceH8055: wherefore then wilt thou sinH2398 against innocentH5355 bloodH1818, to slayH4191 DavidH1732 without a causeH2600?
And SaulH7586 hearkenedH8085 unto the voiceH6963 of JonathanH3083: and SaulH7586 swareH7650, As the LORDH3068 livethH2416, he shall notH518 be slainH4191.
And JonathanH3083 calledH7121 DavidH1732, and JonathanH3083 shewedH5046 him all those thingsH1697. And JonathanH3083 broughtH935 DavidH1732 to SaulH7586, and he was in his presenceH6440, as in times pastH865+H8032. {in times…: Heb. yesterday, third day}
And there was warH4421 againH3254: and DavidH1732 went outH3318, and foughtH3898 with the PhilistinesH6430, and slewH5221 them with a greatH1419 slaughterH4347; and they fledH5127 fromH6440 him. {him: Heb. his face}
And the evilH7451 spiritH7307 from the LORDH3068 was upon SaulH7586, as he satH3427 in his houseH1004 with his javelinH2595 in his handH3027: and DavidH1732 playedH5059 with his handH3027.
And SaulH7586 soughtH1245 to smiteH5221 DavidH1732 even to the wallH7023 with the javelinH2595; but he slipped awayH6362 out of Saul'sH7586 presenceH6440, and he smoteH5221 the javelinH2595 into the wallH7023: and DavidH1732 fledH5127, and escapedH4422 that nightH3915.
SaulH7586 also sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto David'sH1732 houseH1004, to watchH8104 him, and to slayH4191 him in the morningH1242: and MichalH4324 David'sH1732 wifeH802 toldH5046 him, sayingH559, If thou saveH4422 not thy lifeH5315 to nightH3915, to morrowH4279 thou shalt be slainH4191.
So MichalH4324 letH3381 DavidH1732 downH3381 through a windowH2474: and he wentH3212, and fledH1272, and escapedH4422.
And MichalH4324 tookH3947 an imageH8655, and laidH7760 it in the bedH4296, and putH7760 a pillowH3523 of goats'H5795 hair for his bolsterH4763, and coveredH3680 it with a clothH899. {image: Heb. teraphim}
And when SaulH7586 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to takeH3947 DavidH1732, she saidH559, He is sickH2470.
And SaulH7586 sentH7971 the messengersH4397 again to seeH7200 DavidH1732, sayingH559, Bring him upH5927 to me in the bedH4296, that I may slayH4191 him.
And when the messengersH4397 were come inH935, behold, there was an imageH8655 in the bedH4296, with a pillowH3523 of goats'H5795 hair for his bolsterH4763.
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto MichalH4324, Why hast thou deceived me soH7411, and sent awayH7971 mine enemyH341, that he is escapedH4422? And MichalH4324 answeredH559 SaulH7586, He saidH559 unto me, Let me goH7971; why should I killH4191 thee?
So DavidH1732 fledH1272, and escapedH4422, and cameH935 to SamuelH8050 to RamahH7414, and toldH5046 him all that SaulH7586 had doneH6213 to him. And he and SamuelH8050 wentH3212 and dweltH3427 in NaiothH5121.
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}
ThereforeG1352 leavingG863 the principlesG746 of the doctrineG3056 of ChristG5547, let us go onG5342 untoG1909 perfectionG5047; notG3361 layingG2598 againG3825 the foundationG2310 of repentanceG3341 fromG575 deadG3498 worksG2041, andG2532 of faithG4102 towardG1909 GodG2316, {principles…: or, word of the beginning of}
Of the doctrineG1322 of baptismsG909, andG5037 of laying onG1936 of handsG5495, andG5037 of resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498, andG2532 of eternalG166 judgmentG2917.
AndG2532 thisG5124 will we doG4160, ifG1437+G4007 GodG2316 permitG2010.
ForG1063 it is impossibleG102 for those who were onceG530 enlightenedG5461, andG5037 have tastedG1089 of the heavenlyG2032 giftG1431, andG2532 were madeG1096 partakersG3353 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151,
AndG2532 have tastedG1089 the goodG2570 wordG4487 of GodG2316, andG5037 the powersG1411 of the worldG165 to comeG3195,
IfG2532 they shall fall awayG3895, to renew themG340 againG3825 untoG1519 repentanceG3341; seeing they crucifyG388 to themselvesG1438 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 afreshG388, andG2532 put him to an open shameG3856.
ForG1063 the earthG1093 whichG3588 drinketh inG4095 the rainG5205 that comethG2064 oftG4178 uponG1909 itG846, andG2532 bringeth forthG5088 herbsG1008 meetG2111 for themG1565+G2532 byG1223 whomG3739 it is dressedG1090, receivethG3335 blessingG2129 fromG575 GodG2316: {by: or, for}
ButG1161 that which bearethG1627 thornsG173 andG2532 briersG5146 is rejectedG96, andG2532 is nighG1451 unto cursingG2671; whoseG3739 endG5056 is toG1519 be burnedG2740.
ButG1161, belovedG27, we are persuadedG3982 better thingsG2909 ofG4012 youG5216, andG2532 things that accompanyG2192 salvationG4991, thoughG1499 weG2980 thusG3779 speakG2980.
ForG1063 GodG2316 is notG3756 unrighteousG94 to forgetG1950 yourG5216 workG2041 andG2532 labourG2873 of loveG26, whichG3739 ye have shewedG1731 towardG1519 hisG846 nameG3686, in that ye have ministeredG1247 to the saintsG40, andG2532 do ministerG1247.
AndG1161 we desireG1937 that every oneG1538 of youG5216 do shewG1731 the sameG846 diligenceG4710 toG4314 the full assuranceG4136 of hopeG1680 untoG891 the endG5056:
ThatG3363 ye beG1096 notG3363 slothfulG3576, butG1161 followersG3402 of them who throughG1223 faithG4102 andG2532 patienceG3115 inheritG2816 the promisesG1860.
ForG1063 when GodG2316 made promiseG1861 to AbrahamG11, becauseG1893 he couldG2192 swearG3660 byG2596 noG3762 greaterG3187, he swareG3660 byG2596 himselfG1438,
SayingG3004, SurelyG2229+G3375 blessingG2127 I will blessG2127 theeG4571, andG2532 multiplyingG4129 I will multiplyG4129 theeG4571.
AndG2532 soG3779, after he had patiently enduredG3114, he obtainedG2013 the promiseG1860.
ForG1063 menG444 verilyG3303 swearG3660 byG2596 the greaterG3187: andG2532 an oathG3727 forG1519 confirmationG951 is to themG846 an endG4009 of allG3956 strifeG485.
WhereinG1722+G3739 GodG2316, willingG1014 more abundantlyG4054 to shewG1925 unto the heirsG2818 of promiseG1860 the immutabilityG276 of hisG846 counselG1012, confirmedG3315 it by an oathG3727: {confirmed…: Gr. interposed himself by}
ThatG2443 byG1223 twoG1417 immutableG276 thingsG4229, inG1722 whichG3739 it was impossibleG102 for GodG2316 to lieG5574, we might haveG2192 a strongG2478 consolationG3874, whoG3588 have fled for refugeG2703 to lay holdG2902 upon the hopeG1680 set before usG4295:
WhichG3739 hope we haveG2192 asG5613 an anchorG45 of the soulG5590, bothG5037 sureG804 andG2532 stedfastG949, andG2532 which enterethG1525 intoG1519 that withinG2082 the veilG2665;
WhitherG3699 the forerunnerG4274 isG1525 forG5228 usG2257 enteredG1525, even JesusG2424, madeG1096 an high priestG749 forG1519 everG165 afterG2596 the orderG5010 of MelchisedecG3198.
ThereforeG1352 leavingG863 the principlesG746 of the doctrineG3056 of ChristG5547, let us go onG5342 untoG1909 perfectionG5047; notG3361 layingG2598 againG3825 the foundationG2310 of repentanceG3341 fromG575 deadG3498 worksG2041, andG2532 of faithG4102 towardG1909 GodG2316, {principles…: or, word of the beginning of}
Of the doctrineG1322 of baptismsG909, andG5037 of laying onG1936 of handsG5495, andG5037 of resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498, andG2532 of eternalG166 judgmentG2917.
AndG2532 thisG5124 will we doG4160, ifG1437+G4007 GodG2316 permitG2010.
ForG1063 it is impossibleG102 for those who were onceG530 enlightenedG5461, andG5037 have tastedG1089 of the heavenlyG2032 giftG1431, andG2532 were madeG1096 partakersG3353 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151,
AndG2532 have tastedG1089 the goodG2570 wordG4487 of GodG2316, andG5037 the powersG1411 of the worldG165 to comeG3195,
IfG2532 they shall fall awayG3895, to renew themG340 againG3825 untoG1519 repentanceG3341; seeing they crucifyG388 to themselvesG1438 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 afreshG388, andG2532 put him to an open shameG3856.
ForG1063 the earthG1093 whichG3588 drinketh inG4095 the rainG5205 that comethG2064 oftG4178 uponG1909 itG846, andG2532 bringeth forthG5088 herbsG1008 meetG2111 for themG1565+G2532 byG1223 whomG3739 it is dressedG1090, receivethG3335 blessingG2129 fromG575 GodG2316: {by: or, for}
ButG1161 that which bearethG1627 thornsG173 andG2532 briersG5146 is rejectedG96, andG2532 is nighG1451 unto cursingG2671; whoseG3739 endG5056 is toG1519 be burnedG2740.
ButG1161, belovedG27, we are persuadedG3982 better thingsG2909 ofG4012 youG5216, andG2532 things that accompanyG2192 salvationG4991, thoughG1499 weG2980 thusG3779 speakG2980.
ForG1063 GodG2316 is notG3756 unrighteousG94 to forgetG1950 yourG5216 workG2041 andG2532 labourG2873 of loveG26, whichG3739 ye have shewedG1731 towardG1519 hisG846 nameG3686, in that ye have ministeredG1247 to the saintsG40, andG2532 do ministerG1247.
AndG1161 we desireG1937 that every oneG1538 of youG5216 do shewG1731 the sameG846 diligenceG4710 toG4314 the full assuranceG4136 of hopeG1680 untoG891 the endG5056:
ThatG3363 ye beG1096 notG3363 slothfulG3576, butG1161 followersG3402 of them who throughG1223 faithG4102 andG2532 patienceG3115 inheritG2816 the promisesG1860.
ForG1063 when GodG2316 made promiseG1861 to AbrahamG11, becauseG1893 he couldG2192 swearG3660 byG2596 noG3762 greaterG3187, he swareG3660 byG2596 himselfG1438,
SayingG3004, SurelyG2229+G3375 blessingG2127 I will blessG2127 theeG4571, andG2532 multiplyingG4129 I will multiplyG4129 theeG4571.
AndG2532 soG3779, after he had patiently enduredG3114, he obtainedG2013 the promiseG1860.
ForG1063 menG444 verilyG3303 swearG3660 byG2596 the greaterG3187: andG2532 an oathG3727 forG1519 confirmationG951 is to themG846 an endG4009 of allG3956 strifeG485.
WhereinG1722+G3739 GodG2316, willingG1014 more abundantlyG4054 to shewG1925 unto the heirsG2818 of promiseG1860 the immutabilityG276 of hisG846 counselG1012, confirmedG3315 it by an oathG3727: {confirmed…: Gr. interposed himself by}
ThatG2443 byG1223 twoG1417 immutableG276 thingsG4229, inG1722 whichG3739 it was impossibleG102 for GodG2316 to lieG5574, we might haveG2192 a strongG2478 consolationG3874, whoG3588 have fled for refugeG2703 to lay holdG2902 upon the hopeG1680 set before usG4295:
WhichG3739 hope we haveG2192 asG5613 an anchorG45 of the soulG5590, bothG5037 sureG804 andG2532 stedfastG949, andG2532 which enterethG1525 intoG1519 that withinG2082 the veilG2665;
WhitherG3699 the forerunnerG4274 isG1525 forG5228 usG2257 enteredG1525, even JesusG2424, madeG1096 an high priestG749 forG1519 everG165 afterG2596 the orderG5010 of MelchisedecG3198.
ThereforeG1352 leavingG863 the principlesG746 of the doctrineG3056 of ChristG5547, let us go onG5342 untoG1909 perfectionG5047; notG3361 layingG2598 againG3825 the foundationG2310 of repentanceG3341 fromG575 deadG3498 worksG2041, andG2532 of faithG4102 towardG1909 GodG2316, {principles…: or, word of the beginning of}
Of the doctrineG1322 of baptismsG909, andG5037 of laying onG1936 of handsG5495, andG5037 of resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498, andG2532 of eternalG166 judgmentG2917.
AndG2532 thisG5124 will we doG4160, ifG1437+G4007 GodG2316 permitG2010.
ForG1063 it is impossibleG102 for those who were onceG530 enlightenedG5461, andG5037 have tastedG1089 of the heavenlyG2032 giftG1431, andG2532 were madeG1096 partakersG3353 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151,
AndG2532 have tastedG1089 the goodG2570 wordG4487 of GodG2316, andG5037 the powersG1411 of the worldG165 to comeG3195,
IfG2532 they shall fall awayG3895, to renew themG340 againG3825 untoG1519 repentanceG3341; seeing they crucifyG388 to themselvesG1438 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 afreshG388, andG2532 put him to an open shameG3856.
ForG1063 the earthG1093 whichG3588 drinketh inG4095 the rainG5205 that comethG2064 oftG4178 uponG1909 itG846, andG2532 bringeth forthG5088 herbsG1008 meetG2111 for themG1565+G2532 byG1223 whomG3739 it is dressedG1090, receivethG3335 blessingG2129 fromG575 GodG2316: {by: or, for}
ButG1161 that which bearethG1627 thornsG173 andG2532 briersG5146 is rejectedG96, andG2532 is nighG1451 unto cursingG2671; whoseG3739 endG5056 is toG1519 be burnedG2740.
ButG1161, belovedG27, we are persuadedG3982 better thingsG2909 ofG4012 youG5216, andG2532 things that accompanyG2192 salvationG4991, thoughG1499 weG2980 thusG3779 speakG2980.
