1 Samuel 21

KJV

1  Then came935 David1732 to Nob5011 to413 Ahimelech288 the priest:3548 and Ahimelech288 was afraid2729 at the meeting7125 of David,1732 and said559 unto him, Why4069 art thou859 alone,905 and no369 man376 with854 thee?

2  And David1732 said559 unto Ahimelech288 the priest,3548 The king4428 hath commanded6680 me a business,1697 and hath said559 unto413 me, Let no408 man376 know3045 any thing3972 of 853 the business1697 whereabout834 I595 send7971 thee, and what834 I have commanded6680 thee: and I have appointed3045 my servants5288 to413 such6423 and such492 a place.4725

3  Now6258 therefore what4100 is3426 under8478 thine hand?3027 give5414 me five2568 loaves of bread3899 in mine hand,3027 or176 what there is present.4672

4  And the priest3548 answered6030 853 David,1732 and said,559 There is no369 common2455 bread3899 under413 8478 mine hand,3027 but3588 518 there is3426 hallowed6944 bread;3899 if518 the young men5288 have kept themselves8104 at least389 from women.4480 802

5  And David1732 answered6030 853 the priest,3548 and said559 unto him, Of3588 518 a truth women802 have been kept6113 from us about these three8032 days,8543 since I came out,3318 and the vessels3627 of the young men5288 are holy,6944 and the bread is in a manner1870 common,2455 yea,637 though3588 it were sanctified6942 this day3117 in the vessel.3627

6  So the priest3548 gave5414 him hallowed6944 bread: for3588 there was1961 no3808 bread3899 there8033 but3588 518 the shewbread,3899 6440 that was taken5493 from before4480 6440 the LORD,3068 to put7760 hot2527 bread3899 in the day3117 when it was taken away.3947

7  Now a certain man376 of the servants4480 5650 of Saul7586 was there8033 that1931 day,3117 detained6113 before6440 the LORD;3068 and his name8034 was Doeg,1673 an Edomite,130 the chiefest47 of the herdsmen7462 that834 belonged to Saul.7586

8  And David1732 said559 unto Ahimelech,288 And is there3426 not371 here6311 under8478 thine hand3027 spear2595 or176 sword?2719 for3588 I have neither1571 3808 brought3947 my sword2719 nor1571 my weapons3627 with3027 me, because3588 the king's4428 business1697 required1961 haste.5169

9  And the priest3548 said,559 The sword2719 of Goliath1555 the Philistine,6430 whom834 thou slewest5221 in the valley6010 of Elah,425 behold,2009 it1931 is here wrapped3874 in a cloth8071 behind310 the ephod:646 if518 thou wilt take3947 that, take3947 it: for3588 there is no369 other312 save2108 that here.2088 And David1732 said,559 There is none369 like that; give5414 it me.

10  And David1732 arose,6965 and fled1272 that1931 day3117 for fear of4480 6440 Saul,7586 and went935 to413 Achish397 the king4428 of Gath.1661

11  And the servants5650 of Achish397 said559 unto413 him, Is not3808 this2088 David1732 the king4428 of the land?776 did they not3808 sing one to another6030 of him2088 in dances,4246 saying,559 Saul7586 hath slain5221 his thousands,505 and David1732 his ten thousands?7233

12  And David1732 laid up7760 853 these428 words1697 in his heart,3824 and was sore3966 afraid3372 of4480 6440 Achish397 the king4428 of Gath.1661

13  And he changed8138 853 his behavior2940 before5869 them, and feigned himself mad1984 in their hands,3027 and scrabbled8427 on5921 the doors1817 of the gate,8179 and let his spittle7388 fall down3381 upon413 his beard.2206

14  Then said559 Achish397 unto413 his servants,5650 Lo,2009 ye see7200 the man376 is mad:7696 wherefore4100 then have ye brought935 him to413 me?

15  Have I589 need2638 of mad men,7696 that3588 ye have brought935 853 this2088 fellow to play the mad man7696 in my presence?5921 shall this2088 fellow come935 into413 my house?1004

1 καὶ ἀνέστη Δαυιδ καὶ ἀπῆλθεν καὶ Ιωναθαν εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν πόλιν

2 καὶ ἔρχεται Δαυιδ εἰς Νομβα πρὸς Αβιμελεχ τὸν ἱερέα καὶ ἐξέστη Αβιμελεχ τῇ ἀπαντήσει αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ τί ὅτι σὺ μόνος καὶ οὐθεὶς μετὰ σοῦ

3 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ τῷ ἱερεῖ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐντέταλταί μοι ῥῆμα σήμερον καὶ εἶπέν μοι μηδεὶς γνώτω τὸ ῥῆμα περὶ οὗ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω σε καὶ ὑπὲρ οὗ ἐντέταλμαί σοι καὶ τοῖς παιδαρίοις διαμεμαρτύρημαι ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τῷ λεγομένῳ θεοῦ πίστις Φελλανι Αλεμωνι

4 καὶ νῦν εἰ εἰσὶν ὑπὸ τὴν χεῖρά σου πέντε ἄρτοι δὸς εἰς χεῖρά μου τὸ εὑρεθέν

5 καὶ ἀπεκρίθη ὁ ἱερεὺς τῷ Δαυιδ καὶ εἶπεν οὐκ εἰσὶν ἄρτοι βέβηλοι ὑπὸ τὴν χεῖρά μου ὅτι ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ἄρτοι ἅγιοι εἰσίν εἰ πεφυλαγμένα τὰ παιδάριά ἐστιν ἀπὸ γυναικός καὶ φάγεται

6 καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Δαυιδ τῷ ἱερεῖ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἀλλὰ ἀπὸ γυναικὸς ἀπεσχήμεθα ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτην ἡμέραν ἐν τῷ ἐξελθεῖν με εἰς ὁδὸν γέγονε πάντα τὰ παιδάρια ἡγνισμένα καὶ αὐτὴ ἡ ὁδὸς βέβηλος διότι ἁγιασθήσεται σήμερον διὰ τὰ σκεύη μου

7 καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ Αβιμελεχ ὁ ἱερεὺς τοὺς ἄρτους τῆς προθέσεως ὅτι οὐκ ἦν ἐκεῖ ἄρτος ὅτι ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ἄρτοι τοῦ προσώπου οἱ ἀφῃρημένοι ἐκ προσώπου κυρίου παρατεθῆναι ἄρτον θερμὸν ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἔλαβεν αὐτούς

8 καὶ ἐκεῖ ἦν ἓν τῶν παιδαρίων τοῦ Σαουλ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ συνεχόμενος νεεσσαραν ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ ὄνομα αὐτῷ Δωηκ ὁ Σύρος νέμων τὰς ἡμιόνους Σαουλ

9 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πρὸς Αβιμελεχ ἰδὲ εἰ ἔστιν ἐνταῦθα ὑπὸ τὴν χεῖρά σου δόρυ ἢ ῥομφαία ὅτι τὴν ῥομφαίαν μου καὶ τὰ σκεύη οὐκ εἴληφα ἐν τῇ χειρί μου ὅτι ἦν τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦ βασιλέως κατὰ σπουδήν

10 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ ἱερεύς ἰδοὺ ἡ ῥομφαία Γολιαθ τοῦ ἀλλοφύλου ὃν ἐπάταξας ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι Ηλα καὶ αὐτὴ ἐνειλημένη ἐν ἱματίῳ εἰ ταύτην λήμψῃ σεαυτῷ λαβέ ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἑτέρα πάρεξ ταύτης ἐνταῦθα καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ ἰδοὺ οὐκ ἔστιν ὥσπερ αὐτή δός μοι αὐτήν

11 καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν αὐτῷ καὶ ἀνέστη Δαυιδ καὶ ἔφυγεν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐκ προσώπου Σαουλ καὶ ἦλθεν Δαυιδ πρὸς Αγχους βασιλέα Γεθ

12 καὶ εἶπαν οἱ παῖδες Αγχους πρὸς αὐτόν οὐχὶ οὗτος Δαυιδ ὁ βασιλεὺς τῆς γῆς οὐχὶ τούτῳ ἐξῆρχον αἱ χορεύουσαι λέγουσαι ἐπάταξεν Σαουλ ἐν χιλιάσιν αὐτοῦ καὶ Δαυιδ ἐν μυριάσιν αὐτοῦ

13 καὶ ἔθετο Δαυιδ τὰ ῥήματα ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐφοβήθη σφόδρα ἀπὸ προσώπου Αγχους βασιλέως Γεθ

14 καὶ ἠλλοίωσεν τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ καὶ προσεποιήσατο ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ καὶ ἐτυμπάνιζεν ἐπὶ ταῖς θύραις τῆς πόλεως καὶ παρεφέρετο ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔπιπτεν ἐπὶ τὰς θύρας τῆς πύλης καὶ τὰ σίελα αὐτοῦ κατέρρει ἐπὶ τὸν πώγωνα αὐτοῦ

15 καὶ εἶπεν Αγχους πρὸς τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ ἰδοὺ ἴδετε ἄνδρα ἐπίλημπτον ἵνα τί εἰσηγάγετε αὐτὸν πρός με

16 ἦ ἐλαττοῦμαι ἐπιλήμπτων ἐγώ ὅτι εἰσαγειόχατε αὐτὸν ἐπιλημπτεύεσθαι πρός με οὗτος οὐκ εἰσελεύσεται εἰς οἰκίαν

1 Venit autem David in Nobe ad Achimelech sacerdotem: et obstupuit Achimelech, eo quod venisset David. Et dixit ei: Quare tu solus, et nullus est tecum?

2 Et ait David ad Achimelech sacerdotem: Rex præcepit mihi sermonem, et dixit: Nemo sciat rem propter quam missus es a me, et cujusmodi præcepta tibi dederim: nam et pueris condixi in illum et illum locum.

3 Nunc ergo si quid habes ad manum, vel quinque panes, da mihi, aut quidquid inveneris.

4 Et respondens sacerdos ad David, ait illi: Non habeo laicos panes ad manum, sed tantum panem sanctum: si mundi sunt pueri, maxime a mulieribus?

5 Et respondit David sacerdoti, et dixit ei: Equidem, si de mulieribus agitur: continuimus nos ab heri et nudiustertius quando egrediebamur, et fuerunt vasa puerorum sancta. Porro via hæc polluta est, sed et ipsa hodie sanctificabitur in vasis.

6 Dedit ergo ei sacerdos sanctificatum panem: neque enim erat ibi panis, nisi tantum panes propositionis, qui sublati fuerant a facie Domini, ut ponerentur panes calidi.

7 Erat autem ibi vir quidam de servis Saul in die illa, intus in tabernaculo Domini: et nomen ejus Doëg Idumæus, potentissimus pastorum Saul.

8 Dixit autem David ad Achimelech: Si habes hic ad manum hastam aut gladium? quia gladium meum et arma mea non tuli mecum: sermo enim regis urgebat.

9 Et dixit sacerdos: Ecce hic gladius Goliath Philisthæi, quem percussisti in Valle terebinthi: est involutus pallio post ephod: si istum vis tollere, tolle: neque enim hic est alius absque eo. Et ait David: Non est huic alter similis: da mihi eum.

10 Surrexit itaque David, et fugit in die illa a facie Saul: et venit ad Achis regem Geth.

11 Dixeruntque servi Achis ad eum cum vidissent David: Numquid non iste est David rex terræ? nonne huic cantabant per choros, dicentes: [Percussit Saul mille,
et David decem millia?]

12 Posuit autem David sermones istos in corde suo, et extimuit valde a facie Achis regis Geth.

13 Et immutavit os suum coram eis, et collabebatur inter manus eorum: et impingebat in ostia portæ, defluebantque salivæ ejus in barbam.

14 Et ait Achis ad servos suos: Vidistis hominem insanum: quare adduxistis eum ad me?

15 an desunt nobis furiosi, quod introduxistis istum, ut fureret me præsente? hiccine ingredietur domum meam?
