1 Samuel 26:14 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 Now some men from Ziph came to Saul at Gibeah to tell him, "David is hiding on the hill of Hakilah, which overlooks Jeshimon."

2 So Saul took 3,000 of Israel's elite troops and went to hunt him down in the wilderness of Ziph.

3 Saul camped along the road beside the hill of Hakilah, near Jeshimon, where David was hiding. When David learned that Saul had come after him into the wilderness,

4 he sent out spies to verify the report of Saul's arrival.

5 David slipped over to Saul's camp one night to look around. Saul and Abner son of Ner, the commander of his army, were sleeping inside a ring formed by the slumbering warriors.

6 "Who will volunteer to go in there with me?" David asked Ahimelech the Hittite and Abishai son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother."I'll go with you," Abishai replied.

7 So David and Abishai went right into Saul's camp and found him asleep, with his spear stuck in the ground beside his head. Abner and the soldiers were lying asleep around him.

8 "God has surely handed your enemy over to you this time!" Abishai whispered to David. "Let me pin him to the ground with one thrust of the spear; I won't need to strike twice!"

9 "No!" David said. "Don't kill him. For who can remain innocent after attacking the LORD's anointed one?

10 Surely the LORD will strike Saul down someday, or he will die of old age or in battle.

11 The LORD forbid that I should kill the one he has anointed! But take his spear and that jug of water beside his head, and then let's get out of here!"

12 So David took the spear and jug of water that were near Saul's head. Then he and Abishai got away without anyone seeing them or even waking up, because the LORD had put Saul's men into a deep sleep.

13 David climbed the hill opposite the camp until he was at a safe distance.

14 Then he shouted down to the soldiers and to Abner son of Ner, "Wake up, Abner!" "Who is it?" Abner demanded.

15 "Well, Abner, you're a great man, aren't you?" David taunted. "Where in all Israel is there anyone as mighty? So why haven't you guarded your master the king when someone came to kill him?

16 This isn't good at all! I swear by the LORD that you and your men deserve to die, because you failed to protect your master, the LORD's anointed! Look around! Where are the king's spear and the jug of water that were beside his head?"

17 Saul recognized David's voice and called out, "Is that you, my son David?" And David replied, "Yes, my lord the king.

18 Why are you chasing me? What have I done? What is my crime?

19 But now let my lord the king listen to his servant. If the LORD has stirred you up against me, then let him accept my offering. But if this is simply a human scheme, then may those involved be cursed by the LORD. For they have driven me from my home, so I can no longer live among the LORD's people, and they have said, 'Go, worship pagan gods.'

20 Must I die on foreign soil, far from the presence of the LORD? Why has the king of Israel come out to search for a single flea? Why does he hunt me down like a partridge on the mountains?"

21 Then Saul confessed, "I have sinned. Come back home, my son, and I will no longer try to harm you, for you valued my life today. I have been a fool and very, very wrong."

22 "Here is your spear, O king," David replied. "Let one of your young men come over and get it.

23 The LORD gives his own reward for doing good and for being loyal, and I refused to kill you even when the LORD placed you in my power, for you are the LORD's anointed one.

24 Now may the LORD value my life, even as I have valued yours today. May he rescue me from all my troubles."

25 And Saul said to David, "Blessings on you, my son David. You will do many heroic deeds, and you will surely succeed." Then David went away, and Saul returned home.

1 And the Ziphites ^H2130 came ^H935 ^W-VQY3MP unto ^H413 ^PREP Saul ^H7586 to Gibeah ^H1390 , saying ^H559 ^L-VQFC , Doth not ^H3808 ^D-NPAR David ^H1732 hide himself ^H5641 in the hill ^H1389 of Hachilah ^H2444 , which is before ^H5921 ^PREP Jeshimon ^H3452 ?

2 Then Saul ^H7586 arose ^H6965 ^W-VQY3MS , and went down ^H3381 ^W-VQY3MS to ^H413 ^PREP the wilderness ^H4057 of Ziph ^H2128 , having three ^H7969 thousand ^H505 ^MMP chosen ^H977 men ^H376 ^NMS of Israel ^H3478 with ^H854 him , to seek ^H1245 David ^H1732 ^MMS in the wilderness ^H4057 of Ziph ^H2128 .

3 And Saul ^H7586 pitched ^H2583 in the hill ^H1389 of Hachilah ^H2444 , which ^H834 ^RPRO is before ^H5921 ^PREP Jeshimon ^H3452 , by ^H5921 ^PREP the way ^H1870 ^D-NMS . But David ^H1732 abode ^H3427 ^VQPMS in the wilderness ^H4057 , and he saw ^H7200 ^W-VIY3MS that ^H3588 ^CONJ Saul ^H7586 came ^H935 after ^H310 ^PREP-3MS him into the wilderness ^H4057 .

4 David ^H1732 ^MMS therefore sent out ^H7971 ^W-VQY3MS spies ^H7270 , and understood ^H3045 ^W-VQY3MS that ^H3588 ^CONJ Saul ^H7586 was come in very deed ^H3559 .

5 And David ^H1732 ^MMS arose ^H6965 ^W-VQY3MS , and came ^H935 ^W-VQY3MS to ^H413 ^PREP the place ^H4725 ^D-NMS where ^H834 ^RPRO Saul ^H7586 had pitched ^H2583 : and David ^H1732 ^MMS beheld ^H7200 ^W-VIY3MS the place ^H4725 ^D-NMS where ^H834 ^RPRO Saul ^H7586 lay ^H7901 , and Abner ^H74 the son ^H1121 of Ner ^H5369 , the captain ^H8269 of his host ^H6635 : and Saul ^H7586 lay ^H7901 in the trench ^H4570 , and the people ^H5971 pitched ^H2583 round about ^H5439 him .

6 Then answered ^H6030 ^W-VQY3MS David ^H1732 ^MMS and said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS to ^H413 ^PREP Ahimelech ^H288 the Hittite ^H2850 , and to ^H413 ^PREP Abishai ^H52 the son ^H1121 of Zeruiah ^H6870 , brother ^H251 ^CMS to Joab ^H3097 , saying ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS , Who ^H4310 ^IPRO will go down ^H3381 with ^H854 ^PREP-1MS me to ^H413 ^PREP Saul ^H7586 to ^H413 ^PREP the camp ^H4264 ? And Abishai ^H52 said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS , I ^H589 ^PPRO-1MS will go down ^H3381 with ^H5973 ^PREP-2FS thee .

7 So David ^H1732 and Abishai ^H52 came ^H935 ^W-VQY3MS to ^H413 ^PREP the people ^H5971 by night ^H3915 ^GMS : and , behold ^H2009 ^IJEC , Saul ^H7586 lay ^H7901 sleeping ^H3463 within the trench ^H4570 , and his spear ^H2595 stuck ^H4600 in the ground ^H776 ^BD-GFS at his bolster ^H4763 : but Abner ^H74 and the people ^H5971 lay ^H7901 round about ^H5439 him .

8 Then said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS Abishai ^H52 to ^H413 ^PREP David ^H1732 ^MMS , God ^H430 ^EDP hath delivered ^H5462 thine enemy ^H341 into thine hand ^H3027 ^B-CFS-2MS this day ^H3117 ^D-AMS : now ^H6258 ^W-ADV therefore let me smite ^H5221 him , I pray thee ^H4994 ^IJEC , with the spear ^H2595 even to the earth ^H776 at once ^H259 ^OFS , and I will not ^H3808 ^W-NPAR smite him the second time ^H8138 .

9 And David ^H1732 ^MMS said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS to ^H413 ^PREP Abishai ^H52 , Destroy ^H7843 him not ^H408 ^NPAR : for ^H3588 ^CONJ who ^H4310 ^IPRO can stretch forth ^H7971 ^VQQ3MS his hand ^H3027 ^CFS-3MS against the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS \'s anointed ^H4899 , and be guiltless ^H5352 ?

10 David ^H1732 ^MMS said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS furthermore ^H518 ^PART , As the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS liveth ^H2416 ^AMS , the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS shall smite ^H5062 him ; or ^H176 ^CONJ his day ^H3117 ^CMS-3MS shall come ^H935 ^VQY3MS to die ^H4191 ; or ^H176 ^CONJ he shall descend ^H3381 into battle ^H4421 , and perish ^H5595 .

11 The LORD ^H3068 ^NAME-4MS forbid ^H2486 ^IJEC-3FS that I should stretch forth mine hand ^H3027 ^CFS-1MS against the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS \'s anointed ^H4899 : but , I pray thee ^H4994 ^IJEC , take ^H3947 ^VQI2MS thou now ^H6258 ^W-ADV the spear ^H2595 that ^H834 ^RPRO is at his bolster ^H4763 , and the cruse ^H6835 of water ^H4325 ^D-CMS , and let us go ^H1980 .

12 So David ^H1732 ^MMS took ^H3947 ^W-VQY3MS the spear ^H2595 and the cruse ^H6835 of water ^H4325 ^D-CMS from Saul ^H7586 \'s bolster ^H4763 ; and they got them away ^H1980 ^W-VQY3MP , and no ^H369 ^W-NPAR man saw ^H7200 ^VQPMS it , nor ^H369 ^W-NPAR knew ^H3045 ^VQPMS it , neither ^H369 ^W-NPAR awaked ^H6974 : for ^H3588 ^CONJ they were all ^H3605 asleep ^H3463 ; because ^H3588 ^CONJ a deep sleep ^H8639 from the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS was fallen ^H5307 upon ^H5921 ^PREP-3MP them .

13 Then David ^H1732 ^MMS went over ^H5674 ^W-VQY3MS to the other side ^H5676 , and stood ^H5975 ^W-VQY3MS on ^H5921 ^PREP the top ^H7218 ^NMS of a hill ^H2022 afar off ^H7350 ; a great ^H7227 ^AMS space ^H4725 ^D-NMS being between ^H996 them :

14 And David ^H1732 cried ^H7121 ^W-VQY3MS to ^H413 ^PREP the people ^H5971 , and to ^H413 ^PREP Abner ^H74 the son ^H1121 of Ner ^H5369 , saying ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS , Answerest ^H6030 thou not ^H3808 ^D-NPAR , Abner ^H74 ? Then Abner ^H74 answered ^H6030 ^W-VQY3MS and said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS , Who ^H4310 ^IPRO art thou ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS that criest ^H7121 ^W-VQY3MS to ^H413 ^PREP the king ^H4428 ?

15 And David ^H1732 ^MMS said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS to ^H413 ^PREP Abner ^H74 , Art not ^H3808 ^ADV thou ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS a valiant man ^H376 ^NMS ? and who ^H4310 ^W-IPRO is like to thee ^H3644 in Israel ^H3478 ? wherefore ^H4100 ^WL-IGAT then hast thou not ^H3808 ^NADV kept ^H8104 thy lord ^H113 the king ^H4428 ^D-NMS ? for ^H3588 ^CONJ there came ^H935 one ^H259 of the people ^H5971 in to destroy ^H7843 the king ^H4428 ^D-NMS thy lord ^H113 .

16 This ^H2088 ^D-PMS thing ^H1697 ^D-NMS is not ^H3808 ^NADV good ^H2896 ^AMS that ^H834 ^RPRO thou hast done ^H6213 ^VQQ2MS . As the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS liveth ^H2416 ^AMS , ye ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS are worthy ^H1121 ^CMP to die ^H4194 ^NMS , because ^H834 ^RPRO ye have not ^H3808 ^ADV kept ^H8104 your master ^H113 , the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS \'s anointed ^H4899 . And now ^H6258 ^W-ADV see ^H7200 ^VQI2MS where ^H335 the king ^H4428 ^D-NMS \'s spear ^H2595 ^NFS is , and the cruse ^H6835 of water ^H4325 ^D-CMS that ^H834 ^RPRO was at his bolster ^H4763 .

17 And Saul ^H7586 knew ^H5234 David ^H1732 ^MMS \'s voice ^H6963 ^CMS , and said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS , Is this ^H2088 ^DPRO thy voice ^H6963 , my son ^H1121 ^NMS-1MS David ^H1732 ? And David ^H1732 ^MMS said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS , It is my voice ^H6963 ^NMS-1MS , my lord ^H113 , O king ^H4428 .

18 And he said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS , Wherefore ^H4100 ^L-IPRO doth my lord ^H113 thus ^H2088 ^PMS pursue ^H7291 after ^H310 ^PREP his servant ^H5650 ? for ^H3588 ^CONJ what ^H4100 ^L-IPRO have I done ^H6213 ^VQQ1MS ? or what ^H4100 ^L-IPRO evil ^H7451 ^AFS is in mine hand ^H3027 ^B-CFS-1MS ?

19 Now ^H6258 ^W-ADV therefore , I pray thee ^H4994 ^IJEC , let my lord ^H113 the king ^H4428 ^D-NMS hear ^H8085 the words ^H1697 ^CMP of his servant ^H5650 . If ^H518 ^PART the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS have stirred thee up ^H5496 against me , let him accept ^H7306 an offering ^H4503 ^NFS : but if ^H518 ^PART they be the children ^H1121 of men ^H120 ^D-NMS , cursed ^H779 be they ^H1992 ^PPRO-3MP before ^H6440 ^L-CMP the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS ; for ^H3588 ^CONJ they have driven me out ^H1644 this day ^H3117 ^D-AMS from abiding ^H5596 in the inheritance ^H5159 of the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , saying ^H559 ^L-VQFC , Go ^H1980 ^VQI2MS , serve ^H5647 other ^H312 gods ^H430 ^EDP .

20 Now ^H6258 ^W-ADV therefore , let not ^H408 ^NPAR my blood ^H1818 fall ^H5307 ^VQY3MS to the earth ^H776 ^NFS-3FS before ^H5048 ^M-PREP the face ^H6440 ^CMP of the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS : for ^H3588 ^CONJ the king ^H4428 ^NMS of Israel ^H3478 is come out ^H3318 ^VQQ3MS to seek ^H1245 a flea ^H6550 , as when ^H834 ^K-RPRO one ^H259 ^MMS doth hunt ^H7291 a partridge ^H7124 in the mountains ^H2022 .

21 Then said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS Saul ^H7586 , I have sinned ^H2398 ^VQQ1MS : return ^H7725 ^VQFC , my son ^H1121 David ^H1732 : for ^H3588 ^CONJ I will no ^H3808 ^ADV more ^H5750 ^ADV do thee harm ^H7489 , because ^H834 ^RPRO my soul ^H5315 ^CFS-1MS was precious ^H3365 in thine eyes ^H5869 this ^H2088 ^D-PMS day ^H3117 ^D-AMS : behold ^H2009 ^IJEC , I have played the fool ^H5528 , and have erred ^H7686 exceedingly ^H7235 ^VHFA .

22 And David ^H1732 ^MMS answered ^H6030 ^W-VQY3MS and said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS , Behold ^H2009 ^IJEC the king ^H4428 ^D-NMS \'s spear ^H2595 ! and let one ^H259 ^MMS of the young men ^H5288 come over ^H5674 ^W-VQY3MS and fetch ^H3947 it .

23 The LORD ^H3068 ^NAME-4MS render ^H7725 ^VHY3MS to every man ^H376 ^LD-NMS his righteousness ^H6666 and his faithfulness ^H530 : for ^H834 ^RPRO the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS delivered ^H5414 thee into my hand ^H3027 today ^H3117 ^D-AMS , but I would ^H14 not ^H3808 ^W-NPAR stretch forth ^H7971 mine hand ^H3027 ^CFS-1MS against the LORD ^H3068 ^NAME-4MS \'s anointed ^H4899 .

24 And , behold ^H2009 ^IJEC , as ^H834 ^K-RPRO thy life ^H5315 was much set ^H1431 by this ^H2088 ^D-PMS day ^H3117 ^D-AMS in mine eyes ^H5869 , so ^H3651 ^ADV let my life ^H5315 ^CFS-1MS be much set ^H1431 by in the eyes ^H5869 ^B-CMP of the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , and let him deliver ^H5337 me out of all ^H3605 ^M-CMS tribulation ^H6869 ^NFS .

25 Then Saul ^H7586 said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS to ^H413 ^PREP David ^H1732 ^MMS , Blessed ^H1288 ^VWQ3MS be thou ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS , my son ^H1121 ^NMS-1MS David ^H1732 : thou shalt both ^H1571 ^CONJ do great ^H6213 things , and also ^H1571 ^W-CONJ shalt still prevail ^H3201 . So David ^H1732 ^MMS went ^H1980 ^W-VQY3MS on his way ^H1870 , and Saul ^H7586 returned ^H7725 ^VQQ3MS to his place ^H4725 .
