KJV

1  And David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ in⁴¹³ his heart,³⁸²⁰ I shall now⁶²⁵⁸ perish⁵⁵⁹⁵ one²⁵⁹ day³¹¹⁷ by the hand³⁰²⁷ of Saul:⁷⁵⁸⁶ there is nothing³⁶⁹ better²⁸⁹⁶ for me than³⁵⁸⁸ that I should speedily escape^{4422 4422} into⁴¹³ the land⁷⁷⁶ of the Philistines;⁶⁴³⁰ and Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ shall despair²⁹⁷⁶ of⁴⁴⁸⁰ me, to seek¹²⁴⁵ me any more⁵⁷⁵⁰ in any³⁶⁰⁵ coast¹³⁶⁶ of Israel:³⁴⁷⁸ so shall I escape⁴⁴²² out of his hand.^{4480 3027}

2  And David¹⁷³² arose,⁶⁹⁶⁵ and he¹⁹³¹ passed over⁵⁶⁷⁴ with the six⁸³³⁷ hundred³⁹⁶⁷ men³⁷⁶ that⁸³⁴ were with⁵⁹⁷³ him unto⁴¹³ Achish,³⁹⁷ the son¹¹²¹ of Maoch,⁴⁵⁸² king⁴⁴²⁸ of Gath.¹⁶⁶¹

3  And David¹⁷³² dwelt³⁴²⁷ with⁵⁹⁷³ Achish³⁹⁷ at Gath,¹⁶⁶¹ he¹⁹³¹ and his men,³⁷⁶ every man³⁷⁶ with his household,¹⁰⁰⁴ even David¹⁷³² with his two⁸¹⁴⁷ wives,⁸⁰² Ahinoam²⁹³ the Jezreelitess,³¹⁵⁹ and Abigail²⁶ the Carmelitess,³⁷⁶¹ Nabal's⁵⁰³⁷ wife.⁸⁰²

4  And it was told⁵⁰⁴⁶ Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ that³⁵⁸⁸ David¹⁷³² was fled¹²⁷² to Gath:¹⁶⁶¹ and he sought¹²⁴⁵ no³⁸⁰⁸ more⁵⁷⁵⁰ again³²⁵⁴ for him.

5  And David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Achish,³⁹⁷ If⁵¹⁸ I have now⁴⁹⁹⁴ found⁴⁶⁷² grace²⁵⁸⁰ in thine eyes,⁵⁸⁶⁹ let them give⁵⁴¹⁴ me a place⁴⁷²⁵ in some²⁵⁹ town⁵⁸⁹² in the country,⁷⁷⁰⁴ that I may dwell³⁴²⁷ there:⁸⁰³³ for why⁴¹⁰⁰ should thy servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ dwell³⁴²⁷ in the royal⁴⁴⁶⁷ city⁵⁸⁹² with⁵⁹⁷³ thee?

6  Then Achish³⁹⁷ gave⁵⁴¹⁴ him ⁸⁵³ Ziklag⁶⁸⁶⁰ that¹⁹³¹ day:³¹¹⁷ wherefore³⁶⁵¹ Ziklag⁶⁸⁶⁰ pertaineth¹⁹⁶¹ unto the kings⁴⁴²⁸ of Judah³⁰⁶³ unto⁵⁷⁰⁴ this²⁰⁸⁸ day.³¹¹⁷

7  And the time³¹¹⁷ that⁸³⁴ David¹⁷³² dwelt³⁴²⁷ in the country⁷⁷⁰⁴ of the Philistines⁶⁴³⁰ was¹⁹⁶¹ a full⁴⁵⁵⁷ year³¹¹⁷ and four⁷⁰² months.²³²⁰

8  And David¹⁷³² and his men³⁷⁶ went up,⁵⁹²⁷ and invaded^{6584 413} the Geshurites,¹⁶⁵¹ and the Gezrites,¹⁵¹¹ and the Amalekites:⁶⁰⁰³ for³⁵⁸⁸ those²⁰⁰⁷ nations were of old^{834 4480 5769} the inhabitants³⁴²⁷ of the land,⁷⁷⁶ as thou goest⁹³⁵ to Shur,⁷⁷⁹³ even unto⁵⁷⁰⁴ the land⁷⁷⁶ of Egypt.⁴⁷¹⁴

9  And David¹⁷³² smote^{5221 853} the land,⁷⁷⁶ and left²⁴²¹ neither³⁸⁰⁸ man³⁷⁶ nor woman⁸⁰² alive, and took away³⁹⁴⁷ the sheep,⁶⁶²⁹ and the oxen,¹²⁴¹ and the asses,²⁵⁴³ and the camels,¹⁵⁸¹ and the apparel,⁸⁹⁹ and returned,⁷⁷²⁵ and came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ Achish.³⁹⁷

10  And Achish³⁹⁷ said,⁵⁵⁹ Whither⁴⁰⁸ have ye made a road⁶⁵⁸⁴ today?³¹¹⁷ And David¹⁷³² said,⁵⁵⁹ Against⁵⁹²¹ the south⁵⁰⁴⁵ of Judah,³⁰⁶³ and against⁵⁹²¹ the south⁵⁰⁴⁵ of the Jerahmeelites,³³⁹⁷ and against⁴¹³ the south⁵⁰⁴⁵ of the Kenites.⁷⁰¹⁷

11  And David¹⁷³² saved²⁴²¹ neither³⁸⁰⁸ man³⁷⁶ nor woman⁸⁰² alive, to bring⁹³⁵ tidings to Gath,¹⁶⁶¹ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Lest⁶⁴³⁵ they should tell⁵⁰⁴⁶ on⁵⁹²¹ us, saying,⁵⁵⁹ So³⁵⁴¹ did⁶²¹³ David,¹⁷³² and so³⁵⁴¹ will be his manner⁴⁹⁴¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ the while³¹¹⁷ he dwelleth³⁴²⁷ in the country⁷⁷⁰⁴ of the Philistines.⁶⁴³⁰

12  And Achish³⁹⁷ believed⁵³⁹ David,¹⁷³² saying,⁵⁵⁹ He hath made his people⁵⁹⁷¹ Israel³⁴⁷⁸ utterly to abhor^{887 887} him; therefore he shall be¹⁹⁶¹ my servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ forever.⁵⁷⁶⁹

1 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ λέγων νῦν προστεθήσομαι ἐν ἡμέρᾳ μιᾷ εἰς χεῖρας Σαουλ καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν μοι ἀγαθόν ἐὰν μὴ σωθῶ εἰς γῆν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἀνῇ Σαουλ τοῦ ζητεῖν με εἰς πᾶν ὅριον Ισραηλ καὶ σωθήσομαι ἐκ χειρὸς αὐτοῦ

2 καὶ ἀνέστη Δαυιδ καὶ οἱ τετρακόσιοι ἄνδρες μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπορεύθη πρὸς Αγχους υἱὸν Αμμαχ βασιλέα Γεθ

3 καὶ ἐκάθισεν Δαυιδ μετὰ Αγχους ἐν Γεθ αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ ἕκαστος καὶ ὁ οἶκος αὐτοῦ καὶ Δαυιδ καὶ ἀμφότεραι αἱ γυναῖκες αὐτοῦ Αχινααμ ἡ Ιεζραηλῖτις καὶ Αβιγαια ἡ γυνὴ Ναβαλ τοῦ Καρμηλίου

4 καὶ ἀνηγγέλη τῷ Σαουλ ὅτι πέφευγεν Δαυιδ εἰς Γεθ καὶ οὐ προσέθετο ἔτι ζητεῖν αὐτόν

5 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πρὸς Αγχους εἰ δὴ εὕρηκεν ὁ δοῦλός σου χάριν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου δότωσαν δή μοι τόπον ἐν μιᾷ τῶν πόλεων τῶν κατ᾽ ἀγρὸν καὶ καθήσομαι ἐκεῖ καὶ ἵνα τί κάθηται ὁ δοῦλός σου ἐν πόλει βασιλευομένῃ μετὰ σοῦ

6 καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ τὴν Σεκελακ διὰ τοῦτο ἐγενήθη Σεκελακ τῷ βασιλεῖ τῆς Ιουδαίας ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης

7 καὶ ἐγενήθη ὁ ἀριθμὸς τῶν ἡμερῶν ὧν ἐκάθισεν Δαυιδ ἐν ἀγρῷ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων τέσσαρας μῆνας

8 καὶ ἀνέβαινεν Δαυιδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπετίθεντο ἐπὶ πάντα τὸν Γεσιρι καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν Αμαληκίτην καὶ ἰδοὺ ἡ γῆ κατῳκεῖτο ἀπὸ ἀνηκόντων ἡ ἀπὸ Γελαμψουρ τετειχισμένων καὶ ἕως γῆς Αἰγύπτου

9 καὶ ἔτυπτε τὴν γῆν καὶ οὐκ ἐζωογόνει ἄνδρα καὶ γυναῖκα καὶ ἐλάμβανεν ποίμνια καὶ βουκόλια καὶ ὄνους καὶ καμήλους καὶ ἱματισμόν καὶ ἀνέστρεψαν καὶ ἤρχοντο πρὸς Αγχους

10 καὶ εἶπεν Αγχους πρὸς Δαυιδ ἐπὶ τίνα ἐπέθεσθε σήμερον καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πρὸς Αγχους κατὰ νότον τῆς Ιουδαίας καὶ κατὰ νότον Ιεσμεγα καὶ κατὰ νότον τοῦ Κενεζι

11 καὶ ἄνδρα καὶ γυναῖκα οὐκ ἐζωογόνησεν τοῦ εἰσαγαγεῖν εἰς Γεθ λέγων μὴ ἀναγγείλωσιν εἰς Γεθ καθ᾽ ἡμῶν λέγοντες τάδε Δαυιδ ποιεῖ καὶ τόδε τὸ δικαίωμα αὐτοῦ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἃς ἐκάθητο Δαυιδ ἐν ἀγρῷ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων

12 καὶ ἐπιστεύθη Δαυιδ ἐν τῷ Αγχους σφόδρα λέγων ᾔσχυνται αἰσχυνόμενος ἐν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ ἐν Ισραηλ καὶ ἔσται μοι δοῦλος εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα

1 Et ait David in corde suo: Aliquando incidam una die in manus Saul: nonne melius est ut fugiam, et salver in terra Philisthinorum, ut desperet Saul, cessetque me quærere in cunctis finibus Israël? fugiam ergo manus ejus.

2 Et surrexit David, et abiit ipse, et sexcenti viri cum eo, ad Achis filium Maoch regem Geth.

3 Et habitavit David cum Achis in Geth, ipse et viri ejus: vir et domus ejus: et David, et duæ uxores ejus, Achinoam Jezrahelitis, et Abigail uxor Nabal Carmeli.

4 Et nuntiatum est Sauli quod fugisset David in Geth, et non addidit ultra quærere eum.

5 Dixit autem David ad Achis: Si inveni gratiam in oculis tuis, detur mihi locus in una urbium regionis hujus, ut habitem ibi: cur enim manet servus tuus in civitate regis tecum?

6 Dedit itaque ei Achis in die illa Siceleg: propter quam causam facta est Siceleg regum Juda usque in diem hanc.

7 Fuit autem numerus dierum quibus habitavit David in regione Philisthinorum, quatuor mensium.

8 Et ascendit David et viri ejus, et agebant prædas de Gessuri, et de Gerzi, et de Amalecitis: hi enim pagi habitabantur in terra antiquitus, euntibus Sur usque ad terram Ægypti.

9 Et percutiebat David omnem terram, nec relinquebat viventem virum et mulierem: tollensque oves, et boves, et asinos, et camelos, et vestes, revertebatur, et veniebat ad Achis.

10 Dicebat autem ei Achis: In quem irruisti hodie? Respondebat David: Contra meridiem Judæ, et contra meridiem Jerameel, et contra meridiem Ceni.

11 Virum et mulierem non vivificabat David, nec adducebat in Geth, dicens: Ne forte loquantur adversum nos: Hæc fecit David: et hoc erat decretum illi omnibus diebus quibus habitavit in regione Philisthinorum.

12 Credidit ergo Achis David, dicens: Multa mala operatus est contra populum suum Israël: erit igitur mihi servus sempiternus.
