KJV

1  And the Ziphites²¹³⁰ came⁹³⁵ unto⁴¹³ Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ to Gibeah,¹³⁹⁰ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Doth not³⁸⁰⁸ David¹⁷³² hide himself⁵⁶⁴¹ in the hill¹³⁸⁹ of Hachilah,²⁴⁴⁴ which is before^{5921 6440} Jeshimon?³⁴⁵²

2  Then Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ arose,⁶⁹⁶⁵ and went down³³⁸¹ to⁴¹³ the wilderness⁴⁰⁵⁷ of Ziph,²¹²⁸ having three⁷⁹⁶⁹ thousand⁵⁰⁵ chosen⁹⁷⁷ men³⁷⁶ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ with⁸⁵⁴ him, to seek^{1245 853} David¹⁷³² in the wilderness⁴⁰⁵⁷ of Ziph.²¹²⁸

3  And Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ pitched²⁵⁸³ in the hill¹³⁸⁹ of Hachilah,²⁴⁴⁴ which⁸³⁴ is before^{5921 6440} Jeshimon,³⁴⁵² by⁵⁹²¹ the way.¹⁸⁷⁰ But David¹⁷³² abode³⁴²⁷ in the wilderness,⁴⁰⁵⁷ and he saw⁷²⁰⁰ that³⁵⁸⁸ Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ came⁹³⁵ after³¹⁰ him into the wilderness.⁴⁰⁵⁷

4  David¹⁷³² therefore sent out⁷⁹⁷¹ spies,⁷²⁷⁰ and understood³⁰⁴⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ was come in^{935 413} very deed.³⁵⁵⁹

5  And David¹⁷³² arose,⁶⁹⁶⁵ and came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ the place⁴⁷²⁵ where^{834 8033} Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ had pitched:²⁵⁸³ and David¹⁷³² beheld^{7200 853} the place⁴⁷²⁵ where^{834 8033} Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ lay,⁷⁹⁰¹ and Abner⁷⁴ the son¹¹²¹ of Ner,⁵³⁶⁹ the captain⁸²⁶⁹ of his host:⁶⁶³⁵ and Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ lay⁷⁹⁰¹ in the trench,⁴⁵⁷⁰ and the people⁵⁹⁷¹ pitched²⁵⁸³ round about⁵⁴³⁹ him.

6  Then answered⁶⁰³⁰ David¹⁷³² and said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ Ahimelech²⁸⁸ the Hittite,²⁸⁵⁰ and to⁴¹³ Abishai⁵² the son¹¹²¹ of Zeruiah,⁶⁸⁷⁰ brother²⁵¹ to Joab,³⁰⁹⁷ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Who⁴³¹⁰ will go down³³⁸¹ with⁸⁵⁴ me to⁴¹³ Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ to⁴¹³ the camp?⁴²⁶⁴ And Abishai⁵² said,⁵⁵⁹ I⁵⁸⁹ will go down³³⁸¹ with⁵⁹⁷³ thee.

7  So David¹⁷³² and Abishai⁵² came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ by night:³⁹¹⁵ and, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ lay⁷⁹⁰¹ sleeping³⁴⁶³ within the trench,⁴⁵⁷⁰ and his spear²⁵⁹⁵ stuck⁴⁶⁰⁰ in the ground⁷⁷⁶ at his bolster:⁴⁷⁶³ but Abner⁷⁴ and the people⁵⁹⁷¹ lay⁷⁹⁰¹ round about⁵⁴³⁹ him.

8  Then said⁵⁵⁹ Abishai⁵² to⁴¹³ David,¹⁷³² God⁴³⁰ hath delivered^{5462 853} thine enemy³⁴¹ into thine hand³⁰²⁷ this day:³¹¹⁷ now⁶²⁵⁸ therefore let me smite⁵²²¹ him, I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ with the spear²⁵⁹⁵ even to the earth⁷⁷⁶ at once,^{259 6471} and I will not³⁸⁰⁸ smite him the second time.⁸¹³⁸

9  And David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ Abishai,⁵² Destroy⁷⁸⁴³ him not:⁴⁰⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ who⁴³¹⁰ can stretch forth⁷⁹⁷¹ his hand³⁰²⁷ against the LORD's³⁰⁶⁸ anointed,⁴⁸⁹⁹ and be guiltless?⁵³⁵²

10  David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ furthermore,^{3588 518} As the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ liveth,²⁴¹⁶ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ shall smite⁵⁰⁶² him; or¹⁷⁶ his day³¹¹⁷ shall come⁹³⁵ to die;⁴¹⁹¹ or¹⁷⁶ he shall descend³³⁸¹ into battle,⁴⁴²¹ and perish.⁵⁵⁹⁵

11  The LORD^{4480 3068} forbid²⁴⁸⁶ that I should stretch forth^{4480 7971} mine hand³⁰²⁷ against the LORD's³⁰⁶⁸ anointed:⁴⁸⁹⁹ but, I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ take³⁹⁴⁷ thou now^{6258 853} the spear²⁵⁹⁵ that⁸³⁴ is at his bolster,⁴⁷⁶³ and the cruse⁶⁸³⁵ of water,⁴³²⁵ and let us go.¹⁹⁸⁰

12  So David¹⁷³² took^{3947 853} the spear²⁵⁹⁵ and the cruse⁶⁸³⁵ of water⁴³²⁵ from Saul's⁷⁵⁸⁶ bolster;⁴⁷⁶³ and they got them away,¹⁹⁸⁰ and no³⁶⁹ man saw⁷²⁰⁰ it, nor³⁶⁹ knew³⁰⁴⁵ it, neither³⁶⁹ awaked:⁶⁹⁷⁴ for³⁵⁸⁸ they were all³⁶⁰⁵ asleep;³⁴⁶³ because³⁵⁸⁸ a deep sleep⁸⁶³⁹ from the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ was fallen⁵³⁰⁷ upon⁵⁹²¹ them.

13  Then David¹⁷³² went over⁵⁶⁷⁴ to the other side,⁵⁶⁷⁶ and stood⁵⁹⁷⁵ on⁵⁹²¹ the top⁷²¹⁸ of a hill²⁰²² afar off;^{4480 7350} a great⁷²²⁷ space⁴⁷²⁵ being between⁹⁹⁶ them:

14  And David¹⁷³² cried⁷¹²¹ to⁴¹³ the people,⁵⁹⁷¹ and to⁴¹³ Abner⁷⁴ the son¹¹²¹ of Ner,⁵³⁶⁹ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Answerest⁶⁰³⁰ thou not,³⁸⁰⁸ Abner?⁷⁴ Then Abner⁷⁴ answered⁶⁰³⁰ and said,⁵⁵⁹ Who⁴³¹⁰ art thou⁸⁵⁹ that criest⁷¹²¹ to⁴¹³ the king?⁴⁴²⁸

15  And David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ Abner,⁷⁴ Art not³⁸⁰⁸ thou⁸⁵⁹ a valiant man?³⁷⁶ and who⁴³¹⁰ is like to thee³⁶⁴⁴ in Israel?³⁴⁷⁸ wherefore⁴¹⁰⁰ then hast thou not³⁸⁰⁸ kept^{8104 413} thy lord¹¹³ the king?⁴⁴²⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ there came⁹³⁵ one²⁵⁹ of the people⁵⁹⁷¹ in to destroy^{7843 853} the king⁴⁴²⁸ thy lord.¹¹³

16  This²⁰⁸⁸ thing¹⁶⁹⁷ is not³⁸⁰⁸ good²⁸⁹⁶ that⁸³⁴ thou hast done.⁶²¹³ As the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ liveth,²⁴¹⁶ ye⁸⁵⁹ are worthy¹¹²¹ to die,⁴¹⁹⁴ because⁸³⁴ ye have not³⁸⁰⁸ kept^{8104 5921} your master,¹¹³ the LORD's³⁰⁶⁸ anointed.⁴⁸⁹⁹ And now⁶²⁵⁸ see⁷²⁰⁰ where³³⁵ the king's⁴⁴²⁸ spear²⁵⁹⁵ is, and the cruse⁶⁸³⁵ of water⁴³²⁵ that⁸³⁴ was at his bolster.⁴⁷⁶³

17  And Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ knew^{5234 853} David's¹⁷³² voice,⁶⁹⁶³ and said,⁵⁵⁹ Is this²⁰⁸⁸ thy voice,⁶⁹⁶³ my son¹¹²¹ David?¹⁷³² And David¹⁷³² said,⁵⁵⁹ It is my voice,⁶⁹⁶³ my lord,¹¹³ O king.⁴⁴²⁸

18  And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Wherefore⁴¹⁰⁰ doth my lord¹¹³ thus²⁰⁸⁸ pursue⁷²⁹¹ after³¹⁰ his servant?⁵⁶⁵⁰ for³⁵⁸⁸ what⁴¹⁰⁰ have I done?⁶²¹³ or what⁴¹⁰⁰ evil⁷⁴⁵¹ is in mine hand?³⁰²⁷

19  Now⁶²⁵⁸ therefore, I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ let my lord¹¹³ the king⁴⁴²⁸ hear^{8085 853} the words¹⁶⁹⁷ of his servant.⁵⁶⁵⁰ If⁵¹⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ have stirred thee up⁵⁴⁹⁶ against me, let him accept⁷³⁰⁶ an offering:⁴⁵⁰³ but if⁵¹⁸ they be the children¹¹²¹ of men,¹²⁰ cursed⁷⁷⁹ be they¹⁹⁹² before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD;³⁰⁶⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ they have driven me out¹⁶⁴⁴ this day³¹¹⁷ from abiding^{4480 5596} in the inheritance⁵¹⁵⁹ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Go,¹⁹⁸⁰ serve⁵⁶⁴⁷ other³¹² gods.⁴³⁰

20  Now⁶²⁵⁸ therefore, let not⁴⁰⁸ my blood¹⁸¹⁸ fall⁵³⁰⁷ to the earth⁷⁷⁶ before^{4480 5048} the face⁶⁴⁴⁰ of the LORD:³⁰⁶⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ is come out³³¹⁸ to seek^{1245 853} a flea,⁶⁵⁵⁰ as when⁸³⁴ one²⁵⁹ doth hunt⁷²⁹¹ a partridge⁷¹²⁴ in the mountains.²⁰²²

21  Then said⁵⁵⁹ Saul,⁷⁵⁸⁶ I have sinned:²³⁹⁸ return,⁷⁷²⁵ my son¹¹²¹ David:¹⁷³² for³⁵⁸⁸ I will no³⁸⁰⁸ more⁵⁷⁵⁰ do thee harm,⁷⁴⁸⁹ because^{8478 834} my soul⁵³¹⁵ was precious³³⁶⁵ in thine eyes⁵⁸⁶⁹ this²⁰⁸⁸ day:³¹¹⁷ behold,²⁰⁰⁹ I have played the fool,⁵⁵²⁸ and have erred⁷⁶⁸⁶ exceedingly.^{7235 3966}

22  And David¹⁷³² answered⁶⁰³⁰ and said,⁵⁵⁹ Behold²⁰⁰⁹ the king's⁴⁴²⁸ spear!²⁵⁹⁵ and let one²⁵⁹ of the young men^{4480 5288} come over⁵⁶⁷⁴ and fetch³⁹⁴⁷ it.

23  The LORD³⁰⁶⁸ render⁷⁷²⁵ to every man^{376 853} his righteousness⁶⁶⁶⁶ and his faithfulness:⁵³⁰ for⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ delivered⁵⁴¹⁴ thee into my hand³⁰²⁷ today,³¹¹⁷ but I would¹⁴ not³⁸⁰⁸ stretch forth⁷⁹⁷¹ mine hand³⁰²⁷ against the LORD's³⁰⁶⁸ anointed.⁴⁸⁹⁹

24  And, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ as⁸³⁴ thy life⁵³¹⁵ was much set¹⁴³¹ by this²⁰⁸⁸ day³¹¹⁷ in mine eyes,⁵⁸⁶⁹ so³⁶⁵¹ let my life⁵³¹⁵ be much set¹⁴³¹ by in the eyes⁵⁸⁶⁹ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and let him deliver⁵³³⁷ me out of all^{4480 3605} tribulation.⁶⁸⁶⁹

25  Then Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ David,¹⁷³² Blessed¹²⁸⁸ be thou,⁸⁵⁹ my son¹¹²¹ David:¹⁷³² thou shalt both¹⁵⁷¹ do great^{6213 6213} things, and also¹⁵⁷¹ shalt still prevail.^{3201 3201} So David¹⁷³² went¹⁹⁸⁰ on his way,¹⁸⁷⁰ and Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ returned⁷⁷²⁵ to his place.⁴⁷²⁵

1 καὶ ἔρχονται οἱ Ζιφαῖοι ἐκ τῆς αὐχμώδους πρὸς τὸν Σαουλ εἰς τὸν βουνὸν λέγοντες ἰδοὺ Δαυιδ σκεπάζεται μεθ᾽ ἡμῶν ἐν τῷ βουνῷ τοῦ Εχελα τοῦ κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ Ιεσσαιμουν

2 καὶ ἀνέστη Σαουλ καὶ κατέβη εἰς τὴν ἔρημον Ζιφ καὶ μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ τρεῖς χιλιάδες ἀνδρῶν ἐκλεκτοὶ ἐξ Ισραηλ ζητεῖν τὸν Δαυιδ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ Ζιφ

3 καὶ παρενέβαλεν Σαουλ ἐν τῷ βουνῷ τοῦ Εχελα ἐπὶ προσώπου τοῦ Ιεσσαιμουν ἐπὶ τῆς ὁδοῦ καὶ Δαυιδ ἐκάθισεν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ εἶδεν Δαυιδ ὅτι ἥκει Σαουλ ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν ἔρημον

4 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Δαυιδ κατασκόπους καὶ ἔγνω ὅτι ἥκει Σαουλ ἕτοιμος ἐκ Κεϊλα

5 καὶ ἀνέστη Δαυιδ λάθρᾳ καὶ εἰσπορεύεται εἰς τὸν τόπον οὗ ἐκάθευδεν ἐκεῖ Σαουλ καὶ ἐκεῖ Αβεννηρ υἱὸς Νηρ ἀρχιστράτηγος αὐτοῦ καὶ Σαουλ ἐκάθευδεν ἐν λαμπήνῃ καὶ ὁ λαὸς παρεμβεβληκὼς κύκλῳ αὐτοῦ

6 καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Δαυιδ καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς Αχιμελεχ τὸν Χετταῖον καὶ πρὸς Αβεσσα υἱὸν Σαρουιας ἀδελφὸν Ιωαβ λέγων τίς εἰσελεύσεται μετ᾽ ἐμοῦ πρὸς Σαουλ εἰς τὴν παρεμβολήν καὶ εἶπεν Αβεσσα ἐγὼ εἰσελεύσομαι μετὰ σοῦ

7 καὶ εἰσπορεύεται Δαυιδ καὶ Αβεσσα εἰς τὸν λαὸν τὴν νύκτα καὶ ἰδοὺ Σαουλ καθεύδων ὕπνῳ ἐν λαμπήνῃ καὶ τὸ δόρυ ἐμπεπηγὸς εἰς τὴν γῆν πρὸς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ Αβεννηρ καὶ ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ ἐκάθευδεν κύκλῳ αὐτοῦ

8 καὶ εἶπεν Αβεσσα πρὸς Δαυιδ ἀπέκλεισεν σήμερον κύριος τὸν ἐχθρόν σου εἰς τὰς χεῖράς σου καὶ νῦν πατάξω αὐτὸν τῷ δόρατι εἰς τὴν γῆν ἅπαξ καὶ οὐ δευτερώσω αὐτῷ

9 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πρὸς Αβεσσα μὴ ταπεινώσῃς αὐτόν ὅτι τίς ἐποίσει χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ χριστὸν κυρίου καὶ ἀθῳωθήσεται

10 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ ζῇ κύριος ἐὰν μὴ κύριος παίσῃ αὐτόν ἢ ἡ ἡμέρα αὐτοῦ ἔλθῃ καὶ ἀποθάνῃ ἢ εἰς πόλεμον καταβῇ καὶ προστεθῇ

11 μηδαμῶς μοι παρὰ κυρίου ἐπενεγκεῖν χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ χριστὸν κυρίου καὶ νῦν λαβὲ δὴ τὸ δόρυ ἀπὸ πρὸς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸν φακὸν τοῦ ὕδατος καὶ ἀπέλθωμεν καθ᾽ ἑαυτούς

12 καὶ ἔλαβεν Δαυιδ τὸ δόρυ καὶ τὸν φακὸν τοῦ ὕδατος ἀπὸ πρὸς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπῆλθον καθ᾽ ἑαυτούς καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ βλέπων καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ γινώσκων καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ ἐξεγειρόμενος πάντες ὑπνοῦντες ὅτι θάμβος κυρίου ἐπέπεσεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς

13 καὶ διέβη Δαυιδ εἰς τὸ πέραν καὶ ἔστη ἐπὶ τὴν κορυφὴν τοῦ ὄρους μακρόθεν καὶ πολλὴ ἡ ὁδὸς ἀνὰ μέσον αὐτῶν

14 καὶ προσεκαλέσατο Δαυιδ τὸν λαὸν καὶ τῷ Αβεννηρ ἐλάλησεν λέγων οὐκ ἀποκριθήσει Αβεννηρ καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Αβεννηρ καὶ εἶπεν τίς εἶ σὺ ὁ καλῶν με

15 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πρὸς Αβεννηρ οὐκ ἀνὴρ σύ καὶ τίς ὡς σὺ ἐν Ισραηλ καὶ διὰ τί οὐ φυλάσσεις τὸν κύριόν σου τὸν βασιλέα ὅτι εἰσῆλθεν εἷς ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ διαφθεῖραι τὸν βασιλέα κύριόν σου

16 καὶ οὐκ ἀγαθὸν τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο ὃ πεποίηκας ζῇ κύριος ὅτι υἱοὶ θανατώσεως ὑμεῖς οἱ φυλάσσοντες τὸν βασιλέα κύριον ὑμῶν τὸν χριστὸν κυρίου καὶ νῦν ἰδὲ δή τὸ δόρυ τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ὁ φακὸς τοῦ ὕδατος ποῦ ἐστιν τὰ πρὸς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ

17 καὶ ἐπέγνω Σαουλ τὴν φωνὴν τοῦ Δαυιδ καὶ εἶπεν ἦ φωνή σου αὕτη τέκνον Δαυιδ καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ δοῦλός σου κύριε βασιλεῦ

18 καὶ εἶπεν ἵνα τί τοῦτο καταδιώκει ὁ κύριός μου ὀπίσω τοῦ δούλου αὐτοῦ ὅτι τί ἡμάρτηκα καὶ τί εὑρέθη ἐν ἐμοὶ ἀδίκημα

19 καὶ νῦν ἀκουσάτω δὴ ὁ κύριός μου ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦ δούλου αὐτοῦ εἰ ὁ θεὸς ἐπισείει σε ἐπ᾽ ἐμέ ὀσφρανθείη θυσίας σου καὶ εἰ υἱοὶ ἀνθρώπων ἐπικατάρατοι οὗτοι ἐνώπιον κυρίου ὅτι ἐξέβαλόν με σήμερον μὴ ἐστηρίσθαι ἐν κληρονομίᾳ κυρίου λέγοντες πορεύου δούλευε θεοῖς ἑτέροις

20 καὶ νῦν μὴ πέσοι τὸ αἷμά μου ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἐξ ἐναντίας προσώπου κυρίου ὅτι ἐξελήλυθεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ ζητεῖν τὴν ψυχήν μου καθὼς καταδιώκει ὁ νυκτικόραξ ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσιν

21 καὶ εἶπεν Σαουλ ἡμάρτηκα ἐπίστρεφε τέκνον Δαυιδ ὅτι οὐ κακοποιήσω σε ἀνθ᾽ ὧν ἔντιμος ψυχή μου ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου ἐν τῇ σήμερον μεματαίωμαι καὶ ἠγνόηκα πολλὰ σφόδρα

22 καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Δαυιδ καὶ εἶπεν ἰδοὺ τὸ δόρυ τοῦ βασιλέως διελθέτω εἷς τῶν παιδαρίων καὶ λαβέτω αὐτό

23 καὶ κύριος ἐπιστρέψει ἑκάστῳ τὰς δικαιοσύνας αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν πίστιν αὐτοῦ ὡς παρέδωκέν σε κύριος σήμερον εἰς χεῖράς μου καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησα ἐπενεγκεῖν χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ χριστὸν κυρίου

24 καὶ ἰδοὺ καθὼς ἐμεγαλύνθη ἡ ψυχή σου σήμερον ἐν ταύτῃ ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς μου οὕτως μεγαλυνθείη ἡ ψυχή μου ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ σκεπάσαι με καὶ ἐξελεῖταί με ἐκ πάσης θλίψεως

25 καὶ εἶπεν Σαουλ πρὸς Δαυιδ εὐλογημένος σύ τέκνον καὶ ποιῶν ποιήσεις καὶ δυνάμενος δυνήσει καὶ ἀπῆλθεν Δαυιδ εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ Σαουλ ἀνέστρεψεν εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ

Vul

1 Et venerunt Ziphæi ad Saul in Gabaa, dicentes: Ecce David absconditus est in colle Hachila, quæ est ex adverso solitudinis.

2 Et surrexit Saul, et descendit in desertum Ziph, et cum eo tria millia virorum de electis Israël, ut quæreret David in deserto Ziph.

3 Et castrametatus est Saul in Gabaa Hachila, quæ erat ex adverso solitudinis in via: David autem habitabat in deserto. Videns autem quod venisset Saul post se in desertum,

4 misit exploratores, et didicit quod illuc venisset certissime.

5 Et surrexit David clam, et venit ad locum ubi erat Saul: cumque vidisset locum in quo dormiebat Saul, et Abner filius Ner, princeps militiæ ejus, et Saulem dormientem in tentorio, et reliquum vulgus per circuitum ejus,

6 ait David ad Achimelech Hethæum, et Abisai filium Sarviæ fratrem Joab, dicens: Quis descendet mecum ad Saul in castra? Dixitque Abisai: Ego descendam tecum.

7 Venerunt ergo David et Abisai ad populum nocte, et invenerunt Saul jacentem et dormientem in tentorio, et hastam fixam in terra ad caput ejus: Abner autem et populum dormientes in circuitu ejus.

8 Dixitque Abisai ad David: Conclusit Deus inimicum tuum hodie in manus tuas: nunc ergo perfodiam eum lancea in terra semel, et secundo opus non erit.

9 Et dixit David ad Abisai: Ne interficias eum: quis enim extendet manum suam in christum Domini, et innocens erit?

10 Et dixit David: Vivit Dominus, quia nisi Dominus percusserit eum, aut dies ejus venerit ut moriatur, aut in prælium descendens perierit:

11 propitius sit mihi Dominus ne extendam manum meam in christum Domini. Nunc igitur tolle hastam quæ est ad caput ejus, et scyphum aquæ, et abeamus.

12 Tulit igitur David hastam, et scyphum aquæ qui erat ad caput Saul, et abierunt: et non erat quisquam qui videret, et intelligeret, et evigilaret, sed omnes dormiebant, quia sopor Domini irruerat super eos.

13 Cumque transisset David ex adverso, et stetisset in vertice montis de longe, et esset grande intervallum inter eos,

14 clamavit David ad populum, et ad Abner filium Ner, dicens: Nonne respondebis, Abner? Et respondens Abner, ait: Quis es tu, qui clamas, et inquietas regem?

15 Et ait David ad Abner: Numquid non vir tu es? et quis alius similis tui in Israël? quare ergo non custodisti dominum tuum regem? ingressus est enim unus de turba ut interficeret regem dominum tuum.

16 Non est bonum hoc, quod fecisti: vivit Dominus, quoniam filii mortis estis vos, qui non custodistis dominum vestrum, christum Domini: nunc ergo vide ubi sit hasta regis, et ubi sit scyphus aquæ qui erat ad caput ejus.

17 Cognovit autem Saul vocem David, et dixit: Numquid vox hæc tua, fili mi David? Et ait David: Vox mea, domine mi rex.

18 Et ait: Quam ob causam dominus meus persequitur servum suum? quid feci? aut quod est malum in manu mea?

19 Nunc ergo audi, oro, domine mi rex, verba servi tui: si Dominus incitat te adversum me, odoretur sacrificium: si autem filii hominum, maledicti sunt in conspectu Domini qui ejecerunt me hodie ut non habitem in hæreditate Domini, dicentes: Vade, servi diis alienis.

20 Et nunc non effundatur sanguis meus in terram coram Domino: quia egressus est rex Israël ut quærat pulicem unum, sicut persequitur perdix in montibus.

21 Et ait Saul: Peccavi: revertere, fili mi David: nequaquam enim ultra tibi malefaciam, eo quod pretiosa fuerit anima mea in oculis tuis hodie: apparet enim quod stulte egerim, et ignoraverim multa nimis.

22 Et respondens David, ait: Ecce hasta regis: transeat unus de pueris regis, et tollat eam.

23 Dominus autem retribuet unicuique secundum justitiam suam et fidem: tradidit enim te Dominus hodie in manum meam, et nolui extendere manum meam in christum Domini.

24 Et sicut magnificata est anima tua hodie in oculis meis, sic magnificetur anima mea in oculis Domini, et liberet me de omni angustia.

25 Ait ergo Saul ad David: Benedictus tu, fili mi David: et quidem faciens facies, et potens poteris. Abiit autem David in viam suam, et Saul reversus est in locum suum.
