1 Samuel 22:1-23

David
<01732>
therefore departed
<03212> (8799)
thence, and escaped
<04422> (8735)
to the cave
<04631>
Adullam
<05725>_:
and when his brethren
<0251>
and all his father's
<01>
house
<01004>
heard
<08085> (8799)
[it], they went down
<03381> (8799)
thither to him.
And every one
<0376>
[that was] in distress
<04689>_,
and every one
<0376>
that [was] in debt
<05378> (8801)_,
and every one
<0376>
[that was] discontented
<04751> <05315>_,
gathered
<06908> (8691)
themselves unto him; and he became a captain
<08269>
over them: and there were with him about four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>
men
<0376>_.
{was in debt: Heb. had a creditor} {discontented: Heb. bitter of soul}
And David
<01732>
went
<03212> (8799)
thence to Mizpeh
<04708>
of Moab
<04124>_:
and he said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>
of Moab
<04124>_,
Let my father
<01>
and my mother
<0517>_,
I pray thee, come forth
<03318> (8799)_,
[and be] with you, till I know
<03045> (8799)
what God
<0430>
will do
<06213> (8799)
for me.
And he brought
<05148> (8686)
them before
<06440>
the king
<04428>
of Moab
<04124>_:
and they dwelt
<03427> (8799)
with him all the while
<03117>
that David
<01732>
was in the hold
<04686>_.
And the prophet
<05030>
Gad
<01410>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto David
<01732>_,
Abide
<03427> (8799)
not in the hold
<04686>_;
depart
<03212> (8798)_,
and get
<0935> (8804)
thee into the land
<0776>
of Judah
<03063>_.
Then David
<01732>
departed
<03212> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
into the forest
<03293>
of Hareth
<02802>_.
When Saul
<07586>
heard
<08085> (8799)
that David
<01732>
was discovered
<03045> (8738)_,
and the men
<0582>
that [were] with him, (now Saul
<07586>
abode
<03427> (8802)
in Gibeah
<01390>
under a tree
<0815>
in Ramah
<07414>_,
having his spear
<02595>
in his hand
<03027>_,
and all his servants
<05650>
[were] standing
<05324> (8737)
about him;) {tree...: or, grove in a high place}
Then Saul
<07586>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto his servants
<05650>
that stood
<05324> (8737)
about him, Hear now
<08085> (8798)_,
ye Benjamites
<01145>_;
will the son
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>
give
<05414> (8799)
every one of you fields
<07704>
and vineyards
<03754>_,
[and] make
<07760> (8799)
you all captains
<08269>
of thousands
<0505>_,
and captains
<08269>
of hundreds
<03967>_;
That all of you have conspired
<07194> (8804)
against me, and [there is] none that sheweth
<01540> (8802) <0241>
me that my son
<01121>
hath made a league
<03772> (8800)
with the son
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>_,
and [there is] none of you that is sorry
<02470> (8802)
for me, or sheweth
<01540> (8802) <0241>
unto me that my son
<01121>
hath stirred up
<06965> (8689)
my servant
<05650>
against me, to lie in wait
<0693> (8802)_,
as at this day
<03117>_?
{sheweth...: Heb. uncovereth mine ear}
Then answered
<06030> (8799)
Doeg
<01673>
the Edomite
<0130>_,
which was set
<05324> (8737)
over the servants
<05650>
of Saul
<07586>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
I saw
<07200> (8804)
the son
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>
coming
<0935> (8802)
to Nob
<05011>_,
to Ahimelech
<0288>
the son
<01121>
of Ahitub
<0285>_.
And he enquired
<07592> (8799)
of the LORD
<03068>
for him, and gave
<05414> (8804)
him victuals
<06720>_,
and gave
<05414> (8804)
him the sword
<02719>
of Goliath
<01555>
the Philistine
<06430>_.
Then the king
<04428>
sent
<07971> (8799)
to call
<07121> (8800)
Ahimelech
<0288>
the priest
<03548>_,
the son
<01121>
of Ahitub
<0285>_,
and all his father's
<01>
house
<01004>_,
the priests
<03548>
that [were] in Nob
<05011>_:
and they came
<0935> (8799)
all of them to the king
<04428>_.
And Saul
<07586>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Hear
<08085> (8798)
now, thou son
<01121>
of Ahitub
<0285>_.
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
Here I [am], my lord
<0113>_.
{Here...: Heb. Behold me}
And Saul
<07586>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Why have ye conspired
<07194> (8804)
against me, thou and the son
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>_,
in that thou hast given
<05414> (8800)
him bread
<03899>_,
and a sword
<02719>_,
and hast enquired
<07592> (8800)
of God
<0430>
for him, that he should rise
<06965> (8800)
against me, to lie in wait
<0693> (8802)_,
as at this day
<03117>_?
Then Ahimelech
<0288>
answered
<06030> (8799)
the king
<04428>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
And who [is so] faithful
<0539> (8737)
among all thy servants
<05650>
as David
<01732>_,
which is the king's
<04428>
son in law
<02860>_,
and goeth
<05493> (8804)
at thy bidding
<04928>_,
and is honourable
<03513> (8737)
in thine house
<01004>_?
Did I then
<03117>
begin
<02490> (8689)
to enquire
<07592> (8800)
of God
<0430>
for him? be it far from me
<02486>_:
let not the king
<04428>
impute
<07760> (8799)
[any] thing
<01697>
unto his servant
<05650>_,
[nor] to all the house
<01004>
of my father
<01>_:
for thy servant
<05650>
knew
<03045> (8804)
nothing
<01697>
of all this, less
<06996>
or more
<01419>_.
{less...: Heb. little or great}
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thou shalt surely
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8799)_,
Ahimelech
<0288>_,
thou, and all thy father's
<01>
house
<01004>_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the footmen
<07323> (8801)
that stood
<05324> (8737)
about him, Turn
<05437> (8798)_,
and slay
<04191> (8685)
the priests
<03548>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
because their hand
<03027>
also [is] with David
<01732>_,
and because they knew
<03045> (8804)
when he fled
<01272> (8802)_,
and did not shew
<01540> (8804) <0241>
it to me. But the servants
<05650>
of the king
<04428>
would
<014> (8804)
not put forth
<07971> (8800)
their hand
<03027>
to fall
<06293> (8800)
upon the priests
<03548>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{footmen: or, guard: Heb. runners}
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Doeg
<01673>_,
Turn
<05437> (8798)
thou, and fall
<06293> (8798)
upon the priests
<03548>_.
And Doeg
<01673>
the Edomite
<0130>
turned
<05437> (8735)_,
and he fell
<06293> (8799)
upon the priests
<03548>_,
and slew
<04191> (8686)
on that day
<03117>
fourscore
<08084>
and five
<02568>
persons
<0376>
that did wear
<05375> (8802)
a linen
<0906>
ephod
<0646>_.
And Nob
<05011>_,
the city
<05892>
of the priests
<03548>_,
smote
<05221> (8689)
he with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
both men
<0376>
and women
<0802>_,
children
<05768>
and sucklings
<03243> (8802)_,
and oxen
<07794>_,
and asses
<02543>_,
and sheep
<07716>_,
with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_.
And one
<0259>
of the sons
<01121>
of Ahimelech
<0288>
the son
<01121>
of Ahitub
<0285>_,
named
<08034>
Abiathar
<054>_,
escaped
<04422> (8735)_,
and fled
<01272> (8799)
after
<0310>
David
<01732>_.
And Abiathar
<054>
shewed
<05046> (8686)
David
<01732>
that Saul
<07586>
had slain
<02026> (8804)
the LORD'S
<03068>
priests
<03548>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Abiathar
<054>_,
I knew
<03045> (8804)
[it] that day
<03117>_,
when Doeg
<01673>
the Edomite
<0130>
[was] there, that he would surely
<05046> (8687)
tell
<05046> (8686)
Saul
<07586>_:
I have occasioned
<05437> (8804)
[the death] of all the persons
<05315>
of thy father's
<01>
house
<01004>_.
Abide
<03427> (8798)
thou with me, fear
<03372> (8799)
not: for he that seeketh
<01245> (8762)
my life
<05315>
seeketh
<01245> (8762)
thy life
<05315>_:
but with me thou [shalt be] in safeguard
<04931>_.
