And come to the hill to Saul, saying, Behold, David is sheltered with us in the hill of Hachilah, against of Jeshimon.
And Saul rose up, and went down unto the wilderness of Ziph, and with him three thousand men of Israel, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.
And Saul camped in the hill of Hachilah, against of Jeshimon, upon the way. And David stayed in the wilderness. And David saw that Saul comes after him into the wilderness.
And David sent spies, and he knew that Saul was come prepared from there.
And David rose up in private, and went into the place where was sleeping And David saw the place where went to bed And Abner son of Ner his commander-in-chief And Saul was sleeping in and the people were camping round about him.
And David responded and said to Ahimelech the Hittite, and to Abishai son of Zeruiah, brother of Joab, saying, Who shall enter with me to Saul, into the camp? And Abishai said, I shall enter with you.
And they enter, David and Abishai, among the people at night. And behold, Saul was sleeping a deep sleep in and his spear in the ground by his head, and Abner and the people slept round about him.
And Abishai said to David, today your enemy into your hands. And now I shall indeed strike him with the spear into the earth once, and I should not repeat it a second time against him.
And David said to Abishai, you should not utterly destroy him. For who shall bear his hand against the anointed one of the lord, and be acquitted?
And David said, As the lord lives, that if smite him, or his day should come and he should die, or by battle should go down and be added to his fathers;
then it is by no means to me from to bear my hand against of the lord. And now, take indeed the spear from before his head, and the flask of the water, and we shall go forth.
And David took the spear and the flask of the water from before his head, and they went forth. And there was not one seeing, and there was not one knowing, and there was not one awakening all were sleeping, for a stupefaction fell upon them.
And David passed over to the other side, and stood upon the top of the mountain far off, and a long way between them.
And David called the people, and he spoke to Abner son of Ner, saying, Will you not answer, Abner? And Abner answered and said, Who are you, calling me?
And David said to Abner, Are not And who is as you in Israel? And why do you not guard your master the king? For entered to destroy your master the king.
is not which you have done. As lives for sons the ones not guarding the king, your master, the anointed one of the lord. And now see where is and the flask of the water, the things by his head!
And Saul recognized the voice of David, and he said, your voice son David? And David said, My voice my master; your servant, O king.
And he said, Why is this pursues after his servant? For in what have I sinned? And what was found
And now let hear the words of his servant! If God stirs you against me, And if of men, before for they cast me out today to not be fixed firmly in of the lord, saying, Go serve other gods!
And now not upon the ground right opposite of the lord, that has come forth to seek flea as pursues prey in the mountains.
And Saul said, I have sinned. Return, son David! for I shall not do evil against you any more, because was valued in your eyes; and today I have acted in folly, and I am ignorant much
And David responded and said, Behold, the spear of the king. Let come through and take it!
And will restore to each his righteousness and his trust; as delivered today into my hands, and I did not want to bear my hand against of the lord.
And behold, as was magnified today in this, in my eyes, so may be magnified before and may he shelter me, and may he rescue me from out of all affliction.
And Saul said to David, Being blessed son David, and by performing you shall perform, and in ability you shall be able. And David went forth on his way, and Saul returned to his place.
