And he cameh935h8799 to the sheepcotesh1448h6629 by the wayh1870, where was a caveh4631; and Saulh7586 went inh935h8799 to coverh5526h8687 his feeth7272: and Davidh1732 and his menh582 remainedh3427h8802 in the sidesh3411 of the caveh4631.

7

So Davidh1732 stayedh8156h8762 his servantsh582 with these wordsh1697, and sufferedh5414h8804 them not to riseh6965h8800 against Saulh7586. But Saulh7586 rose uph6965h8804 out of the caveh4631, and wenth3212h8799 on his wayh1870. stayed: Heb. cut off

And when Saulh7586 lookedh5027h8686 behindh310 him, Davidh1732 stoopedh6915h8799 with his faceh639 to the earthh776, and bowedh7812h8691 himself.

Behold, this dayh3117 thine eyesh5869 have seenh7200h8804 how that the LORDh3068 had deliveredh5414h8804 thee to dayh3117 into mine handh3027 in the caveh4631: and some badeh559h8804 me killh2026h8800 thee: but mine eye sparedh2347h8799 thee; and I saidh559h8799, I will not put forthh7971h8799 mine handh3027 against my lordh113; for he is the LORD'Sh3068 anointedh4899.

11

Moreover, my fatherh1, seeh7200h8798, yea, seeh7200h8798 the skirth3671 of thy robeh4598 in my handh3027: for in that I cut offh3772h8800 the skirth3671 of thy robeh4598, and killedh2026h8804 thee not, knowh3045h8798 thou and seeh7200h8798 that there is neither evilh7451 nor transgressionh6588 in mine handh3027, and I have not sinnedh2398h8804 against thee; yet thou huntesth6658h8802 my soulh5315 to takeh3947h8800 it.

12

The LORDh3068 judgeh8199h8799 between me and thee, and the LORDh3068 avengeh5358h8804 me of thee: but mine handh3027 shall not be upon thee.

13

As saithh559h8799 the proverbh4912 of the ancientsh6931, Wickednessh7562 proceedethh3318h8799 from the wickedh7563: but mine handh3027 shall not be upon thee.

Afterh310 whom is the kingh4428 of Israelh3478 come outh3318h8804? afterh310 whom dost thou pursueh7291h8802? afterh310 a deadh4191h8801 dogh3611, afterh310 ah259 fleah6550.

15

The LORDh3068 therefore be judgeh1781, and judgeh8199h8804 between me and thee, and seeh7200h8799, and pleadh7378h8799 my causeh7379, and deliverh8199h8799 me out of thine handh3027. deliver: Heb. judge

And it came to pass, when Davidh1732 had made an endh3615h8763 of speakingh1696h8763 these wordsh1697 unto Saulh7586, that Saulh7586 saidh559h8799, Is this thy voiceh6963, my sonh1121 Davidh1732? And Saulh7586 lifted uph5375h8799 his voiceh6963, and wepth1058h8799.

17

And he saidh559h8799 to Davidh1732, Thou art more righteoush6662 than I: for thou hast rewardedh1580h8804 me goodh2896, whereas I have rewardedh1580h8804 thee evilh7451.

18

And thou hast shewedh5046h8689 this dayh3117 how that thou hast dealth6213h8804 wellh2896 with me: forasmuch as when the LORDh3068 had deliveredh5462h8765 me into thine handh3027, thou killedsth2026h8804 me not. delivered: Heb. shut up

19

For if a manh376 findh4672h8799 his enemyh341h8802, will he let him goh7971h8765 wellh2896 awayh1870? wherefore the LORDh3068 rewardh7999h8762 thee goodh2896 for that thou hast doneh6213h8804 unto me this dayh3117.

20

And now, behold, I know wellh3045h8804 that thou shalt surelyh4427h8800 be kingh4427h8799, and that the kingdomh4467 of Israelh3478 shall be establishedh6965h8804 in thine handh3027.

21

Swearh7650h8734 now therefore unto me by the LORDh3068, that thou wilt noth518 cut offh3772h8686 my seedh2233 afterh310 me, and that thou wilt not destroyh8045h8686 my nameh8034 out of my father'sh1 househ1004.
