1 Samuel 26:5-14

And David
<01732>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to the place
<04725>
where Saul
<07586>
had pitched
<02583> (8804)_:
and David
<01732>
beheld
<07200> (8799)
the place
<04725>
where Saul
<07586>
lay
<07901> (8804)_,
and Abner
<074>
the son
<01121>
of Ner
<05369>_,
the captain
<08269>
of his host
<06635>_:
and Saul
<07586>
lay
<07901> (8802)
in the trench
<04570>_,
and the people
<05971>
pitched
<02583> (8802)
round about
<05439>
him. {trench: or, midst of his carriages}
Then answered
<06030> (8799)
David
<01732>
and said
<0559> (8799)
to Ahimelech
<0288>
the Hittite
<02850>_,
and to Abishai
<052>
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>_,
brother
<0251>
to Joab
<03097>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Who will go down
<03381> (8799)
with me to Saul
<07586>
to the camp
<04264>_?
And Abishai
<052>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
I will go down
<03381> (8799)
with thee.
So David
<01732>
and Abishai
<052>
came
<0935> (8799)
to the people
<05971>
by night
<03915>_:
and, behold, Saul
<07586>
lay
<07901> (8802)
sleeping
<03463>
within the trench
<04570>_,
and his spear
<02595>
stuck
<04600> (8803)
in the ground
<0776>
at his bolster
<04763>_:
but Abner
<074>
and the people
<05971>
lay
<07901> (8802)
round about
<05439>
him.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Abishai
<052>
to David
<01732>_,
God
<0430>
hath delivered
<05462> (8765)
thine enemy
<0341> (8802)
into thine hand
<03027>
this day
<03117>_:
now therefore let me smite
<05221> (8686)
him, I pray thee, with the spear
<02595>
even to the earth
<0776>
at once
<06471> <0259>_,
and I will not [smite] him the second time
<08138> (8799)_.
{delivered: Heb. shut up}
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Abishai
<052>_,
Destroy
<07843> (8686)
him not: for who can stretch forth
<07971> (8804)
his hand
<03027>
against the LORD'S
<03068>
anointed
<04899>_,
and be guiltless
<05352> (8738)_?
David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
furthermore, [As] the LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_,
the LORD
<03068>
shall smite
<05062> (8799)
him; or his day
<03117>
shall come
<0935> (8799)
to die
<04191> (8804)_;
or he shall descend
<03381> (8799)
into battle
<04421>_,
and perish
<05595> (8738)_.
The LORD
<03068>
forbid
<02486>
that I should stretch forth
<07971> (8800)
mine hand
<03027>
against the LORD'S
<03068>
anointed
<04899>_:
but, I pray thee, take
<03947> (8798)
thou now the spear
<02595>
that [is] at his bolster
<04763>_,
and the cruse
<06835>
of water
<04325>_,
and let us go
<03212> (8799)_.
So David
<01732>
took
<03947> (8799)
the spear
<02595>
and the cruse
<06835>
of water
<04325>
from Saul's
<07586>
bolster
<07226>_;
and they gat them away
<03212> (8799)_,
and no man saw
<07200> (8802)
[it], nor knew
<03045> (8802)
[it], neither awaked
<06974> (8688)_:
for they [were] all asleep
<03463>_;
because a deep sleep
<08639>
from the LORD
<03068>
was fallen
<05307> (8804)
upon them.
Then David
<01732>
went over
<05674> (8799)
to the other side
<05676>_,
and stood
<05975> (8799)
on the top
<07218>
of an hill
<02022>
afar off
<07350>_;
a great
<07227>
space
<04725>
[being] between them:
And David
<01732>
cried
<07121> (8799)
to the people
<05971>_,
and to Abner
<074>
the son
<01121>
of Ner
<05369>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Answerest
<06030> (8799)
thou not, Abner
<074>_?
Then Abner
<074>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Who [art] thou [that] criest
<07121> (8804)
to the king
<04428>_?
