21:1 ¶
Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and Ahimelech came to meet David trembling, and said unto him, Why art thou alone, and no man with thee? |
|
21:1 ¶
Then came°°
David°
to Nob°
to°
Ahimelech°
the priest:°
and Ahimelech°
was afraid°°
at the meeting°°
of David,°
and said°°
unto him, Why°
[art] thou°
alone,°
and no°
man°
with°
thee? |
21:2
And David said unto Ahimelech the priest, The king hath commanded me a business, and hath said unto me, Let no man know anything of the business whereabout I send thee, and what I have commanded thee: and I have appointed the young men to such and such a place. |
|
21:2
And David°
said°°
unto Ahimelech°
the priest,°
The king°
hath commanded°°
me a business,°
and hath said°°
unto°
me, Let no°
man°
know°°
any thing°
of°
the business°
whereabout°
I°
send°°
thee, and what°
I have commanded°°
thee: and I have appointed°°
[my] servants°
to°
such°
and such°
a place.° |
21:3
Now therefore what is under thy hand? give me five loaves of bread in my hand, or whatsoever there is present. |
|
21:3
Now°
therefore what°
is°
under°
thine hand?°
give°°
[me] five°
[loaves of] bread°
in mine hand,°
or°
what there is present.°° |
21:4
And the priest answered David, and said, There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women. |
|
21:4
And the priest°
answered°°°
David,°
and said,°°
[There is] no°
common°
bread°
under°°
mine hand,°
but°°
there is°
hallowed°
bread;°
if°
the young men°
have kept°°
themselves°
at least°
from women.°° |
21:5
And David answered the priest, and said unto him, Of a truth women have been kept from us about these three days; when I came out, the vessels of the young men were holy, though it was but a common journey; how much more then to-day shall their vessels be holy? |
|
21:5
And David°
answered°°°
the priest,°
and said°°
unto him, Of°°
a truth°
women°
[have been] kept°°
from us about these three°
days,°
since I came out,°°
and the vessels°
of the young men°
are holy,°
and [the bread is] in a manner°
common,°
yea,°
though°
it were sanctified°°
this day°
in the vessel.° |
21:6
So the priest gave him holy [bread]; for there was no bread there but the showbread, that was taken from before Jehovah, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away. |
|
21:6
So the priest°
gave°°
him hallowed°
[bread]: for°
there was°
no°
bread°
there°
but°°
the shewbread,°°
that was taken°°
from before°°
the LORD,°
to put°°
hot°
bread°
in the day°
when it was taken away.°° |

an Edomite,°
the chiefest°
of the herdmen°°
that°
[belonged] to Saul.° |
21:8 ¶
And David said unto Ahimelech, And is there not here under thy hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste. |
|
21:8 ¶
And David°
said°°
unto Ahimelech,°
And is there°
not°
here°
under°
thine hand°
spear°
or°
sword?°
for°
I have neither°°
brought°°
my sword°
nor°
my weapons°
with°
me,°
because°
the king's°
business°
required°°
haste.°° |
21:9
And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the vale of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take it; for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that; give it me. |

the Philistine,°
whom°
thou slewest°°

behold,°
it°
[is here] wrapped°°
in a cloth°
behind°
the ephod:°
if°
thou wilt take°°
that, take°°
[it]: for°
[there is] no°
other°
save°
that here.°
And David°
said,°°
[There is] none°
like that; give°°
it me. |

21:11
And the servants of Achish said unto him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands? |
|
21:11
And the servants°
of Achish°
said°°
unto°
him, [Is] not°
this°
David°
the king°
of the land?°
did they not°
sing°°
one to another°
of him°
in dances,°
saying,°°
Saul°
hath slain°°
his thousands,°
and David°
his ten thousands?° |
21:12
And David laid up these words in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath. |

And David°
laid up°°°
these°
words°
in his heart,°

fall down°°
upon°
his beard.° |
21:14
Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see the man is mad; wherefore then have ye brought him to me? |
|
21:14
Then said°°
Achish°
unto°
his servants,°
Lo,°
ye see°°
the man°
is mad:°°
wherefore°
[then] have ye brought°°
him to°
me? |
21:15
Do I lack madmen, that ye have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house? |
|
21:15
Have I°
need°
of mad men,°°
that°
ye have brought°°°
this°
[fellow] to play the mad man°°
in my presence?°
shall this°
[fellow] come°°
into°
my house?° |
