My LORD’s Bible1 Samuel 19
1And Saul spake to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David.
וַיְדַבֵּר שָׁאוּל אֶל־יֹונָתָן בְּנֹו וְאֶל־כָּל־עֲבָדָיו לְהָמִית אֶת־דָּוִד וִיהֹונָתָן בֶּן־שָׁאוּל חָפֵץ בְּדָוִד מְאֹד׃ (3398)
2But Jonathan Saul’s son delighted much in David: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee: now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself until the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself:
וַיַּגֵּד יְהֹונָתָן לְדָוִד לֵאמֹר מְבַקֵּשׁ שָׁאוּל אָבִי לַהֲמִיתֶךָ וְעַתָּה הִשָּׁמֶר־נָא בַבֹּקֶר וְיָשַׁבְתָּ בַסֵּתֶר וְנַחְבֵּאתָ׃ (5384)

3And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and I will commune with my father of thee; and what I see, that I will tell thee.
וַאֲנִי אֵצֵא וְעָמַדְתִּי לְיַד־אָבִי בַּשָּׂדֶה אֲשֶׁר אַתָּה שָׁם וַאֲנִי אֲדַבֵּר בְּךָ אֶל־אָבִי וְרָאִיתִי מָה וְהִגַּדְתִּי לָךְ׃ (3794)
4And Jonathan spake good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works have been to thee-ward very good:
וַיְדַבֵּר יְהֹונָתָן בְּדָוִד טֹוב אֶל־שָׁאוּל אָבִיו וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו אַל־יֶחֱטָא הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּעַבְדֹּו בְדָוִד כִּי לֹוא חָטָא לָךְ וְכִי מַעֲשָׂיו טֹוב־לְךָ מְאֹד׃ (2430)

5For he did put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou sawest it, and didst rejoice: wherefore then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?
וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת־נַפְשֹׁו בְכַפֹּו וַיַּךְ אֶת־הַפְּלִשְׁתִּי וַיַּעַשׂ יְהוָה תְּשׁוּעָה גְדֹולָה לְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵל רָאִיתָ וַתִּשְׂמָח וְלָמָּה תֶחֱטָא בְּדָם נָקִי לְהָמִית אֶת־דָּוִד חִנָּם׃ (7493)

6And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan: and Saul sware, As the LORD liveth, he shall not be slain.

7And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan shewed him all those things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.
וַיִּקְרָא יְהֹונָתָן לְדָוִד וַיַּגֶּד־לֹו יְהֹונָתָן אֵת כָּל־הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה וַיָּבֵא יְהֹונָתָן אֶת־דָּוִד אֶל־שָׁאוּל וַיְהִי לְפָנָיו כְּאֶתְמֹול שִׁלְשֹׁום׃ (4918)

8And there was war again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and they fled from him.
וַתֹּוסֶף הַמִּלְחָמָה לִהְיֹות וַיֵּצֵא דָוִד וַיִּלָּחֶם בַּפְּלִשְׁתִּים וַיַּךְ בָּהֶם מַכָּה גְדֹולָה וַיָּנֻסוּ מִפָּנָיו׃ (2722)
See also: Psalms 18:32-50, Psalms 27:3
9And the evil spirit from the LORD was upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his javelin in his hand: and David played with his hand.
וַתְּהִי רוּחַ יְהוָה ׀ רָעָה אֶל־שָׁאוּל וְהוּא בְּבֵיתֹו יֹושֵׁב וַחֲנִיתֹו בְּיָדֹו וְדָוִד מְנַגֵּן בְּיָד׃ (2741)

10And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the javelin: but he slipped away out of Saul’s presence, and he smote the javelin into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.
וַיְבַקֵּשׁ שָׁאוּל לְהַכֹּות בַּחֲנִית בְּדָוִד וּבַקִּיר וַיִּפְטַר מִפְּנֵי שָׁאוּל וַיַּךְ אֶת־הַחֲנִית בַּקִּיר וְדָוִד נָס וַיִּמָּלֵט בַּלַּיְלָה הוּא׃ (4378)

11Saul also sent messengers unto David’s house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal David’s wife told him, saying, If thou save not thy life to night, to morrow thou shalt be slain.
וַיִּשְׁלַח שָׁאוּל מַלְאָכִים אֶל־בֵּית דָּוִד לְשָׁמְרֹו וְלַהֲמִיתֹו בַּבֹּקֶר וַתַּגֵּד לְדָוִד מִיכַל אִשְׁתֹּו לֵאמֹר אִם־אֵינְךָ מְמַלֵּט אֶת־נַפְשְׁךָ הַלַּיְלָה מָחָר אַתָּה מוּמָת׃ (6513)

12So Michal let David down through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.

13And Michal took an image, and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats’ hair for his bolster, and covered it with a cloth.
וַתִּקַּח מִיכַל אֶת־הַתְּרָפִים וַתָּשֶׂם אֶל־הַמִּטָּה וְאֵת כְּבִיר הָעִזִּים שָׂמָה מְרַאֲשֹׁתָיו וַתְּכַס בַּבָּגֶד׃ (5156)
14And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick.
וַיִּשְׁלַח שָׁאוּל מַלְאָכִים לָקַחַת אֶת־דָּוִד וַתֹּאמֶר חֹלֶה הוּא׃ (2487)
15And Saul sent the messengers again to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may slay him.
וַיִּשְׁלַח שָׁאוּל אֶת־הַמַּלְאָכִים לִרְאֹות אֶת־דָּוִד לֵאמֹר הַעֲלוּ אֹתֹו בַמִּטָּה אֵלַי לַהֲמִתֹו׃ (3657)

16And when the messengers were come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats’ hair for his bolster.
וַיָּבֹאוּ הַמַּלְאָכִים וְהִנֵּה הַתְּרָפִים אֶל־הַמִּטָּה וּכְבִיר הָעִזִּים מְרַאֲשֹׁתָיו׃ (2389)
17And Saul said unto Michal, Why hast thou deceived me so, and sent away mine enemy, that he is escaped? And Michal answered Saul, He said unto me, Let me go; why should I kill thee?
וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל אֶל־מִיכַל לָמָּה כָּכָה רִמִּיתִנִי וַתְּשַׁלְּחִי אֶת־אֹיְבִי וַיִּמָּלֵט וַתֹּאמֶר מִיכַל אֶל־שָׁאוּל הוּא־אָמַר אֵלַי שַׁלְּחִנִי לָמָה אֲמִיתֵךְ׃ (5181)

18So David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.
וְדָוִד בָּרַח וַיִּמָּלֵט וַיָּבֹא אֶל־שְׁמוּאֵל הָרָמָתָה וַיַּגֶּד־לֹו אֵת כָּל־אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה־לֹו שָׁאוּל וַיֵּלֶךְ הוּא וּשְׁמוּאֵל וַיֵּשְׁבוּ [בְּנֹוִית כ] (בְּנָיֹות׃ ק) (5002)
19And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.
וַיֻּגַּד לְשָׁאוּל לֵאמֹר הִנֵּה דָוִד [בְּנֹוִית כ] (בְּנָיֹות ק) בָּרָמָה׃ (2038)

20And Saul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as appointed over them, the Spirit of God was upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
וַיִּשְׁלַח שָׁאוּל מַלְאָכִים לָקַחַת אֶת־דָּוִד וַיַּרְא אֶת־לַהֲקַת הַנְּבִיאִים נִבְּאִים וּשְׁמוּאֵל עֹמֵד נִצָּב עֲלֵיהֶם וַתְּהִי עַל־מַלְאֲכֵי שָׁאוּל רוּחַ אֱלֹהִים וַיִּתְנַבְּאוּ גַּם־הֵמָּה׃ (5780)

21And when it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also.
וַיַּגִּדוּ לְשָׁאוּל וַיִּשְׁלַח מַלְאָכִים אֲחֵרִים וַיִּתְנַבְּאוּ גַּם־הֵמָּה וַיֹּסֶף שָׁאוּל וַיִּשְׁלַח מַלְאָכִים שְׁלִשִׁים וַיִּתְנַבְּאוּ גַּם־הֵמָּה׃ (3954)
22Then went he also to Ramah, and came to a great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, Behold, they be at Naioth in Ramah.
וַיֵּלֶךְ גַּם־הוּא הָרָמָתָה וַיָּבֹא עַד־בֹּור הַגָּדֹול אֲשֶׁר בַּשֶּׂכוּ וַיִּשְׁאַל וַיֹּאמֶר אֵיפֹה שְׁמוּאֵל וְדָוִד וַיֹּאמֶר הִנֵּה [בְּנֹוִית כ] (בְּנָיֹות ק) בָּרָמָה׃ (4666)
23And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah: and the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
וַיֵּלֶךְ שָׁם אֶל־ [נֹוִית כ] (נָיֹות ק) בָּרָמָה וַתְּהִי עָלָיו גַּם־הוּא רוּחַ אֱלֹהִים וַיֵּלֶךְ הָלֹוךְ וַיִּתְנַבֵּא עַד־בֹּאֹו [בְּנֹוִית כ] (בְּנָיֹות ק) בָּרָמָה׃ (4610)

24And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Wherefore they say, Is Saul also among the prophets?
וַיִּפְשַׁט גַּם־הוּא בְּגָדָיו וַיִּתְנַבֵּא גַם־הוּא לִפְנֵי שְׁמוּאֵל וַיִּפֹּל עָרֹם כָּל־הַיֹּום הַהוּא וְכָל־הַלָּיְלָה עַל־כֵּן יֹאמְרוּ הֲגַם שָׁאוּל בַּנְּבִיאִם׃ (3173)
