And the men of David said to him, Behold, this [is] the day of which the Lord spoke to thee, that he would deliver thine enemy into thy hands; and thou shalt do to him as [it is] good in thy sight. So David arose and cut off the skirt of Saul's garment secretly.

And David said to Saul, Why dost thou hearken to the words of the people, saying, Behold, David seeks thy life?
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς Σαοὺλ, ἱνατί ἀκούεις τῶν λόγων τοῦ λαοῦ, λεγόντων, ἰδοὺ Δαυὶδ ζητεῖ τὴν ψυχήν σου;
Behold, thine eyes have seen this day how that the Lord has delivered thee this day into my hands in the cave; and I would not slay thee, but spared thee, and said, I will not lift up my hand against my lord, for he is the Lord's anointed.
Greek · SeptuagintἸδοὺ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ ἑωράκασιν οἱ ὀφθαλμοί σου ὡς παρέδωκέ σε Κύριος σήμερον εἰς χεῖράς μου ἐν τῷ σπηλαίῳ, καὶ οὐκ ἠβουλήθην ἀποκτεῖναί σε, καὶ ἐφεισάμην σου, καὶ εἶπα, οὐκ ἐποίσω χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ κύριόν μου, ὅτι χριστὸς Κυρίου οὗτός ἐστι.
And behold, the skirt of thy mantle [is] in my hand, I cut off the skirt, and did not slay thee: know then and see to-day, there is no evil in my hand, nor impiety, nor rebellion; and I have not sinned against thee, yet thou layest snares for my soul to take it.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ ἰδοὺ τὸ πτερύγιον τῆς διπλοΐδος σου ἐν τῇ χειρί μου, ἐγὼ ἀφῄρηκα τὸ πτερύγιον, καὶ οὐκ ἀπέκτανκά σε· καὶ γνῶθι καὶ ἴδε σήμερον, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστι κακία ἐν τῇ χειρί μου οὐδὲ ἀσέβεια καὶ ἀθέτησις, καὶ οὐχ ἡμάρτηκα εἰς σὲ, καὶ σὺ δεσμεύεις τὴν ψυχήν μου λαβεῖν αὐτήν.
The Lord judge between me and thee, and the Lord requite thee on thyself: but my hand shall not be upon thee.
Greek · SeptuagintΔικάσαι Κύριος ἀναμέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σοῦ, καὶ ἐκδικήσαι σοι Κύριος ἐκ σου· καὶ ἡ χείρ μου οὐκ ἔσται ἐπὶ σὲ,
As the old proverb says, Transgression will proceed from the wicked ones: but my hand shall not be upon thee.
Greek · Septuagintκαθὼς λέγεται ἡ παραβολὴ ἡ ἀρχαῖα, ἐξ ἀνόμων ἐξελεύσεται πλημμέλεια· καὶ ἡ χείρ μου οὐκ ἔσται ἐπὶ σέ.
And now after whom dost thou come forth, O king of Israel? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, and after a flea?
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ νῦν ὀπίσω τίνος σὺ ἐκπορεύῃ βασιλεῦ Ἰσραήλ; ὀπίσω τίνος καταδιώκεις σύ; ὀπίσω κυνὸς τεθνηκότος, καὶ ὀπίσω ψύλλου ἑνός;
The Lord be judge and umpire between me and thee, the Lord look upon and judge my cause, and rescue me out of thy hand.
Greek · SeptuagintΓένοιτο Κύριος εἰς κριτὴν καὶ δικαστὴν ἀναμέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ ἀναμέσον σοῦ, ἴδοι Κύριος καὶ κρίναι τὴν κρίσιν μου, καὶ δικάσαι μοι ἐκ χειρός σου.
And it came to pass when David had finished speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, [Is] this thy voice, son David? and Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐγένετο, ὡς συνετέλεσε Δαυὶδ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα λαλῶν πρὸς Σαοὺλ, καὶ εἶπε Σαοὺλ, ἡ φωνή σου αὕτη, τέκνον Δαυίδ; καὶ ᾖρε Σαοὺλ τὴν φωνὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔκλαυσε.
And Saul said to David, Thou [art] more righteous than I, for thou hast recompensed me good, but I have recompensed thee evil.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπε Σαοὺλ πρὸς Δαυὶδ, δίκαιος σὺ ὑπὲρ ἐμὲ, ὅτι σὺ ἀνταπέδωκάς μοι ἀγαθά, ἐγὼ δὲ ἀνταπέδωκά σοι κακά.
And thou hast told me to-day what good thou hast done me, how the Lord shut me up into thy hands to-day, and thou didst not slay me.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ σὺ ἀπήγγειλάς μοι σήμερον ἃ ἐποίησάς μοι ἀγαθὰ, ὡς ἀπέκλεισέ με Κύριος εἰς χεῖράς σου σήμερον, καὶ οὐκ ἀπέκτεινάς με.
And if any one should find his enemy in distress, and should send him forth in a good way, then the Lord will reward him good, as thou hast done this day.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ὅτι εἰ εὕροι τις τὸν ἐχθρὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν θλίψει, καὶ ἐκπέμψοι αὐτὸν ἐν ὁδῷ ἀγαθῇ, καὶ Κύριος ἀποτίσει αὐτῷ ἀγαθὰ, καθὼς πεποίηκας σήμερον.
And now, behold, I know that thou shalt surely reign, and the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thy hand.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ γινώσκω, ὅτι βασιλεύων βασιλεύσεις, καὶ στήσεται ἐν χειρί σου ἡ βασιλεία Ἰσραήλ.
Now then swear to me by the Lord, that thou wilt not destroy my seed after me, that thou wilt not blot out my name from the house of my father.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ νῦν ὄμοσόν μοι ἐν Κυρίῳ, ὅτι οὐκ ἐξολοθρεύσεις τὸ σπέρμα μου ὀπίσω μοῦ, οὐκ ἀφανιεῖς τὸ ὄνομά μου ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ πατρός μου.
So David swore to Saul: and Saul departed to his place, and David and his men went up to the strong-hold of Messera.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ὤμοσε Δαυὶδ τῷ Σαούλ· καὶ ἀπῆλθε Σαοὺλ εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ, καὶ Δαυὶδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ ἀνέβησαν εἰς τὴν Μεσσερὰ στενήν.
And Samuel died, and all Israel assembled, and bewailed him, and they bury him in his house in Armathaim: and David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Maon.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἀπέθανε Σαμουὴλ, καὶ συναθροίζονται πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ κόπτονται αὐτὸν, καὶ θάπτουσιν αὐτὸν ἐν οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ ἐν Ἁρμαθαίμ· καὶ ἀνέστη Δαυὶδ, καὶ κατέβη εἰς τὴν ἔρημον Μαών.
And there was a man in Maon, and his flocks were in Carmel, and [he was] a very great man; and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand she-goats: and he happened to be shearing his flock in Carmel.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἦν ἄνθρωπος ἐν τῇ Μαὼν, καὶ τὰ ποίμνια αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ Καρμήλῳ, καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος μέγας σφόδρα· καὶ τούτῳ ποίμνια τρισχίλια, καὶ αἶγες χίλιαι· καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ κείρειν τὸ ποίμνιον αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ Καρμήλῳ.
And the man's name [was] Nabal, and his wife's name [was] Abigaia: and his wife [was] of good understanding and very beautiful in person: but the man [was] harsh and evil in his doings, and the man [was] churlish.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ὄνομα τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ Νάβαλ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ Ἀβιγαία· καὶ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ ἀγαθὴ συνέσει καὶ ἀγαθὴ τῷ εἴδει σφόδρα· καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος σκληρὸς καὶ πονηρὸς ἐν ἐπιτηδεύμασι, καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος κυνικός.
And David heard in the wilderness, that Nabal the Carmelite was shearing his sheep.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ ἤκουσε Δαυὶδ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, ὅτι κείρει Νάβαλ ὁ Καρμήλιος τὸ ποίμνιον αὐτοῦ.
And David sent ten young men, and he said to the young men, Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and ask him in my name how he is.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἀπέστειλε Δαυὶδ δέκα παιδάρια, καὶ εἶπε τοῖς παιδαρίοις, ἀνάβητε εἰς Κάρμηλον καὶ ἀπέλθατε πρὸς Νάβαλ, καὶ ἐρωτήσατε αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου εἰς εἰρήνην,
And thus shall ye say, May thou and thy house seasonably prosper, and all thine be in prosperity.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ ἐρεῖτε τάδε· εἰς ὥρας καὶ σὺ ὑγιαίνων καὶ ὁ οἶκός σου, καὶ πάντα τὰ σὰ ὑγιαίνοντα.
And now, behold, I have heard that thy shepherds who were with us in the wilderness are shearing thy sheep, and we hindered them not, neither did we demand any thing from them all the time they were in Carmel.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἀκήκοα ὅτι κείρουσί σοι νῦν οἱ ποιμένες σου οἳ ἦσαν μεθʼ ἡμῶν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, καὶ οὐκ ἀπεκωλύσαμεν αὐτοὺς, καὶ οὐκ ἐνετειλάμεθα αὐτοῖς οὐθὲν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ὄντων αὐτῶν ἐν Καρμήλῳ.
Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Let then thy servants find grace in thine eyes, for we are come on a good day; give, we pray thee, whatsoever thy hand may find, to thy son David.
Greek · SeptuagintἘρώτησον τὰ παιδάριά σου, καὶ ἀπαγγελοῦσί σοι· καὶ εὑρέτωσαν τὰ παιδάριά σου χάριν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου, ὅτι ἐφʼ ἡμέραν ἀγαθὴν ἥκομεν· δὸς δὴ ὃ ἐὰν εὕρῃ ἡ χείρ σου τῷ υἱῷ σου τῷ Δαυίδ.
So the servants come and speak these words to Nabal, according to all these words in the name of David.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔρχονται τὰ παιδάρια, καὶ λαλοῦσι τοὺς λόγους τούτους πρὸς Νάβαλ κατὰ πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι Δαυίδ· καὶ ἀνεπήδησε
And Nabal sprang up, and answered the servants of David, and said, Who [is] David? and who [is] the son of Jessæ? now-a-days there is abundance of servants who depart every one from his master.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ ἀπεκρίθη Νάβαλ τοῖς παισὶ Δαυὶδ, καὶ εἶπε, τίς ὁ Δαυὶδ, καὶ τίς ὁ υἱὸς Ἰεσσαί; σήμερον πεπληθυμένοι εἰσὶν οἱ δοῦλοι ἀναχωροῦντες ἕκαστος ἐκ προσώπου τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ.
And shall I take my bread, and my wine, and my beasts that I have slain for my shearers, and shall I give them to men of whom I know not whence they are?
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ λήψομαι τοὺς ἄρτους μου καὶ τὸν οἶνόν μου καὶ τὰ θύματά μου ἃ τέθυκα τοῖς κείρουσί μου τὰ πρόβατα, καὶ δώσω αὐτὰ ἀνδράσιν, οἷς οὐκ οἶδα πόθεν εἰσί;
So the servants of David turned back, and returned, and came and reported to David according to these words.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἀπεστράφησαν τὰ παιδάρια Δαυὶδ εἰς ὁδὸν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἀνέστρεψαν καὶ ἦλθον, καὶ ἀνήγγειλαν τῷ Δαυὶδ κατὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα.
And David said to his men, Gird on every man his sword. And they went up after David, about four hundred men: and two hundred abode with the stuff.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ τοῖς ἀνδράσιν αὐτοῦ, ζώσασθε ἕκαστος τὴν ῥομφαίαν αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἀνέβησαν ὀπίσω Δαυὶδ, ὡς τετρακόσιοι ἄνδρες· καὶ οἱ διακόσιοι ἐκάθισαν μετὰ τῶν σκευῶν.
And one of the servants reported to Abigaia the wife of Nabal, saying, Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to salute our lord; but he turned away from them.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ τῇ Ἀβιγαίᾳ γυναικὶ Νάβαλ ἀπήγγειλεν ἓν τῶν παιδαρίων, λέγων, ἰδοὺ Δαυὶδ ἀπέστειλεν ἀγγέλους ἐκ τῆς ἐρήμου εὐλογῆσαι τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν, καὶ ἐξέκλινεν ἀπʼ αὐτῶν.
And the men were very good to us; they did not hinder us, neither did they demand from us any thing all the days that we were with them.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ οἱ ἄνδρες ἀγαθοὶ ἡμῖν σφόδρα, οὐκ ἀπεκώλυσαν ἡμᾶς, οὐδὲ ἐνετείλαντο ἡμῖν οὐδὲν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἃς ἦμεν παρʼ αὐτοῖς.
And when we were in the field, they were as a wall round about us, both by night and by day, all the days that we were with them feeding the flock.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐν τῷ εἶναι ἡμᾶς ἐν ἀγρῷ, ὡς τεῖχος ἦσαν περὶ ἡμᾶς καὶ τὴν νύκτα καὶ τὴν ἡμέραν, πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἃς ἦμεν παρʼ αὐτοῖς ποιμαίνοντες τὸ ποίμνιον.
And now do thou consider, and see what thou wilt do; for mischief is determined against our lord and against his house; and he [is] a vile character, and one cannot speak to him.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ νῦν γνῶθι καὶ ἴδε σὺ τί ποιήσεις, ὅτι συντετέλεσται ἡ κακία εἰς τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν καὶ εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ· καὶ οὗτος υἱὸς λοιμὸς, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι λαλῆσαι πρὸς αὐτόν.
And Abigaia hasted, and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five ephahs of fine flour, and one homer of dried grapes, and two hundred cakes of figs, and put them upon asses.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔσπευσεν Ἀβιγαία καὶ ἔλαβε διακοσίους ἄρτους, καὶ δύο ἀγγεῖα οἴνου, καὶ πέντε πρόβατα πεποιημένα, καὶ πέντε οἰφὶ ἀλφίτου, καὶ γόμορ ἓν σταφίδος, καὶ διακοσίας παλάθας, καὶ ἔθετο ἐπὶ τοὺς ὄνους.
And she said to her servants, Go on before me, and behold I come after you: but she told not her husband.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπε τοῖς παιδαρίοις αὐτῆς, προπορεύεσθε ἔμπροσθέν μου, καὶ ἰδοὺ, ἐγὼ ὀπίσω ὑμῶν παραγίνομαι· καὶ τῷ ἀνδρὶ αὐτῆς οὐκ ἀπήγγειλε.
And it came to pass when she had mounted her ass and was going down by the covert of the mountain, behold, David and his men came down to meet her, and she met them.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐγενήθη, αὐτῆς ἐπιβεβηκυίης ἐπὶ τὴν ὄνον καὶ καταβαινούσης ἐν σκέπῃ τοῦ ὄρους, καὶ ἰδοὺ Δαυὶδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ κατέβαινον εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῆς, καὶ ἀπήντησεν αὐτοῖς.
And David said, Perhaps I have kept all his possessions in the wilderness that he should wrong me, and we did not order the taking any thing of all his goods; yet he has rewarded me evil for good.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ Δαυὶδ εἶπεν, ἴσως εἰς ἄδικον πεφύλακα πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, καὶ οὐκ ἐνετειλάμεθα λαβεῖν ἐκ πάντων τῶν αὐτοῦ οὐθὲν, καὶ ἀνταπέδωκέ μοι πονηρὰ ἀντὶ ἀγαθῶν.
So God do to David and more also, if I leave one male of all that belong to Nabal until the morning.
Greek · SeptuagintΤάδε ποιήσαι ὁ Θεὸς τῷ Δαυὶδ καὶ τάδε προσθείη, εἰ ὑπολείψομαι ἐκ πάντων τῶν τοῦ Νάβαλ ἕως πρωΐ οὐροῦντα πρὸς τοῖχον.
And Abigaia saw David, and she hasted, and alighted from her ass; and she fell before David on her face, and did obeisance to him, [bowing] to the ground
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶδεν Ἀβιγαία τὸν Δαυίδ, καὶ ἔσπευσε καὶ κατεπήδησεν ἀπὸ τῆς ὄνου, καὶ ἔπεσεν ἐνώπιον Δαυὶδ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτῆς, καὶ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν
[even] to his feet, and said, On me, my lord, be my wrong: let, I pray thee, thy servant speak in thine ears, and hear thou the words of thy servant.
Greek · Septuagintἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπεν, ἐν ἐμοὶ κύριέ μου ἡ ἀδικία μου, λαλησάτω δὴ ἡ δούλη σου εἰς τὰ ὦτά σου, καὶ ἄκουσον λόγων τῆς δούλης σου.
Let not my lord, I pray thee, take to heart this pestilent man, for according to his name, so is he; Nabal [is] his name, and folly [is] with him: but I thy handmaid saw not the servants of my lord whom thou didst send.
Greek · SeptuagintΜὴ δὴ θέσθω ὁ κύριός μου καρδίαν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸν ἄνθρωπον τὸν λοιμὸν τοῦτον, ὅτι κατὰ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ οὗτός ἐστι· Νάβαλ ὄνομα αὐτῷ, καὶ ἀφροσύνη μετʼ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐγὼ ἡ δούλη σου οὐκ εἶδον τὰ παιδάρια τοῦ κυρίου μου ἃ ἀπέστειλας.
