Versliste
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}
To the chief MusicianH5329, AltaschithH516, MichtamH4387 of DavidH1732; when SaulH7586 sentH7971, and they watchedH8104 the houseH1004 to kill himH4191. DeliverH5337 me from mine enemiesH341, O my GodH430: defendH7682 me from them that rise upH6965 against me. {Altaschith…: or, To the chief Musician, destroy not, a golden Psalm of David} {defend…: Heb. set me on high}
DeliverH5337 me from the workersH6466 of iniquityH205, and saveH3467 me from bloodyH1818 menH582.
For, lo, they lie in waitH693 for my soulH5315: the mightyH5794 are gatheredH1481 against me; not for my transgressionH6588, nor for my sinH2403, O LORDH3068.
They runH7323 and prepareH3559 themselves without my faultH5771: awakeH5782 to helpH7125 me, and beholdH7200. {help: Heb. meet}
Thou therefore, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, awakeH6974 to visitH6485 all the heathenH1471: be not mercifulH2603 to any wickedH205 transgressorsH898. SelahH5542.
They returnH7725 at eveningH6153: they make a noiseH1993 like a dogH3611, and go round aboutH5437 the cityH5892.
Behold, they belch outH5042 with their mouthH6310: swordsH2719 are in their lipsH8193: for who, say they, doth hearH8085?
But thou, O LORDH3068, shalt laughH7832 at them; thou shalt have all the heathenH1471 in derisionH3932.
Because of his strengthH5797 will I waitH8104 upon thee: for GodH430 is my defenceH4869. {defence: Heb. high place}
The GodH430 of my mercyH2617 shall preventH6923 me: GodH430 shall let me seeH7200 my desire upon mine enemiesH8324. {enemies: Heb. observers}
SlayH2026 them not, lest my peopleH5971 forgetH7911: scatterH5128 them by thy powerH2428; and bring them downH3381, O LordH136 our shieldH4043.
For the sinH2403 of their mouthH6310 and the wordsH1697 of their lipsH8193 let them even be takenH3920 in their prideH1347: and for cursingH423 and lyingH3585 which they speakH5608.
ConsumeH3615 them in wrathH2534, consumeH3615 them, that they may not be: and let them knowH3045 that GodH430 rulethH4910 in JacobH3290 unto the endsH657 of the earthH776. SelahH5542.
And at eveningH6153 let them returnH7725; and let them make a noiseH1993 like a dogH3611, and go round aboutH5437 the cityH5892.
Let them wander up and downH5128+H5128 for meatH398, and grudgeH3885 if they be not satisfiedH7646. {for meat: Heb. to eat} {and grudge…: or, if they be not satisfied, then they will stay all night}
But I will singH7891 of thy powerH5797; yea, I will sing aloudH7442 of thy mercyH2617 in the morningH1242: for thou hast been my defenceH4869 and refugeH4498 in the dayH3117 of my troubleH6862.
Unto thee, O my strengthH5797, will I singH2167: for GodH430 is my defenceH4869, and the GodH430 of my mercyH2617.
To the chief MusicianH5329, AltaschithH516, MichtamH4387 of DavidH1732; when SaulH7586 sentH7971, and they watchedH8104 the houseH1004 to kill himH4191. DeliverH5337 me from mine enemiesH341, O my GodH430: defendH7682 me from them that rise upH6965 against me. {Altaschith…: or, To the chief Musician, destroy not, a golden Psalm of David} {defend…: Heb. set me on high}
DeliverH5337 me from the workersH6466 of iniquityH205, and saveH3467 me from bloodyH1818 menH582.
For, lo, they lie in waitH693 for my soulH5315: the mightyH5794 are gatheredH1481 against me; not for my transgressionH6588, nor for my sinH2403, O LORDH3068.
ButG1161 theirG846 laying awaitG1917 was knownG1097 of SaulG4569. AndG5037 they watchedG3906 the gatesG4439 dayG2250 andG2532 nightG3571 toG3704 killG337 himG846.
ThenG1161 the disciplesG3101 tookG2983 himG846 by nightG3571, and let him downG2524+G5465 byG1223 the wallG5038 inG1722 a basketG4711.
ButG1161 a certainG5100 manG435 namedG3686 AnaniasG367, withG4862 SapphiraG4551 hisG846 wifeG1135, soldG4453 a possessionG2933,
AndG2532 kept backG3557 part ofG575 the priceG5092, hisG846 wifeG1135 alsoG2532 being privyG4894 to it, andG2532 broughtG5342 a certainG5100 partG3313, and laidG5087 it atG3844 the apostles'G652 feetG4228.
AndG1161 AnaniasG367 hearingG191 theseG5128 wordsG3056 fell downG4098, and gave up the ghostG1634: andG2532 greatG3173 fearG5401 cameG1096 onG1909 allG3956 them that heardG191 these thingsG5023.
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 saidG2036 untoG4314 herG846, HowG5101 is it thatG3754 yeG5213 have agreed togetherG4856 to temptG3985 the SpiritG4151 of the LordG2962? beholdG2400, the feetG4228 of them which have buriedG2290 thyG4675 husbandG435 are atG1909 the doorG2374, andG2532 shall carryG1627 theeG4571 outG1627.
ThenG1161 fell she downG4098 straightwayG3916 atG3844 hisG846 feetG4228, andG2532 yielded up the ghostG1634: andG1161 the young menG3495 came inG1525, and foundG2147 herG846 deadG3498, andG2532, carrying her forthG1627, buriedG2290 her byG4314 herG846 husbandG435.
And the womanH802 tookH3947 the twoH8147 menH582, and hidH6845 them, and saidH559 thus, There cameH935 menH582 unto me, but I wistH3045 not whenceH370 they were:
And it came to pass about the time of shuttingH5462 of the gateH8179, when it was darkH2822, that the menH582 went outH3318: whither the menH582 wentH1980 I wotH3045 not: pursueH7291 afterH310 them quicklyH4118; for ye shall overtakeH5381 them.
But she had brought them upH5927 to the roofH1406 of the house, and hidH2934 them with the stalksH6086 of flaxH6593, which she had laid in orderH6186 upon the roofH1406.
