David and Jonathan’s Friendship

As soon as he had finished speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.

1

6 Назустріч Давидові з усіх міст Ізраїля вийшли танцюристки з тимпанами, з радістю і з гуслами,

2

And Saul took him that day and would not let him return to his father’s house.

2

7 і жінки почали. Вони виголошували: Саул побив свої тисячі, а Давид свої десятки тисяч!

3

Then Jonathan made a covenant with David, because he loved him as his own soul.

3

8 І поганою видалася ця справа в очах Саула через ці слова, і він сказав: Давидові дали десятки тисяч, а мені дали лише тисячі!

4

And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was on him and gave it to David, and his armor, and even his sword and his bow and his belt.

4

9 І від того дня й надалі Саул почав косо дивитися на Давида.

5

And David went out and was successful wherever Saul sent him, so that Saul set him over the men of war. And this was good in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul’s servants.

6

Saul’s Jealousy of David

As they were coming home, when David returned from striking down the Philistine, the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tambourines, with songs of joy, and with musical instruments.a

7

And the women sang to one another as they celebrated,
“Saul has struck down his thousands,
and David his ten thousands.”

7

12 У Саула появився страх перед Давидом,

8

And Saul was very angry, and this saying displeased him. He said, “They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed thousands, and what more can he have but the kingdom?”

8

13 і він відсторонив його від себе, і поставив його собі тисяцьким, і той виходив і входив перед народом.

9

And Saul eyed David from that day on.

9

14 Давид був розумним в усіх своїх дорогах, і Господь був з ним.

10

The next day a harmful spirit from God rushed upon Saul, and he raved within his house while David was playing the lyre, as he did day by day. Saul had his spear in his hand.

10

15 І побачив Саул, що він дуже розумний, і остерігався його присутності.

11

And Saul hurled the spear, for he thought, “I will pin David to the wall.” But David evaded him twice.

11

16 А весь Ізраїль та Юда полюбили Давида, бо він виходив і входив перед народом.

12

Saul was afraid of David because the Lord was with him but had departed from Saul.

13

So Saul removed him from his presence and made him a commander of a thousand. And he went out and came in before the people.

14

And David had success in all his undertakings, for the Lord was with him.

15

And when Saul saw that he had great success, he stood in fearful awe of him.

15

20 І сталося, що Мелхола, дочка Саула, полюбила Давида, і сповістили Саулові, і це було угодним в його очах.

16

But all Israel and Judah loved David, for he went out and came in before them.

16

21 І сказав Саул: Дам її йому, і буде йому на спотикання. На Саулові була рука филистимців.

17

David Marries Michal

Then Saul said to David, “Here is my elder daughter Merab. I will give her to you for a wife. Only be valiant for me and fight the Lord’s battles.” For Saul thought, “Let not my hand be against him, but let the hand of the Philistines be against him.”

17

22 Саул дав вказівку всім своїм, кажучи: Ви таємно заговоріть з Давидом, кажучи: Ось цар до тебе прихильний, і всі його слуги тебе люблять, тож ти стань зятем царя!

18

And David said to Saul, “Who am I, and who are my relatives, my father’s clan in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?”

18

23 І слуги Саула промовили ці слова до вух Давида, та Давид сказав: Хіба у ваших очах це легка справа стати зятем царя? Я ж — чоловік нешляхетного роду і не славний.

19

But at the time when Merab, Saul’s daughter, should have been given to David, she was given to Adriel the Meholathite for a wife.

19

24 А слуги Саула сповістили йому згідно із цими словами, які сказав Давид.

20

Now Saul’s daughter Michal loved David. And they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.

20

25 Саул же сказав: Так перекажете Давидові: Цар не бажає дару, але хіба сто крайніх плотей филистимців, щоб помститися на ворогах царя! Саул думав таким чином віддати його в руки филистимців.

21

Saul thought, “Let me give her to him, that she may be a snare for him and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him.” Therefore Saul said to David a second time,b “You shall now be my son-in-law.”

21

26 І слуги Саула сповіщають ці слова Давидові, і справа була угодною в очах Давида, щоб стати зятем царя.

22

And Saul commanded his servants, “Speak to David in private and say, ‘Behold, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you. Now then become the king’s son-in-law.’”

22

27 І Давид піднявся, і він та його мужі пішли і побили сто мужів з филистимців, і він приніс їхні крайні плоті цареві й став зятем царя, і йому дали дочку Мелхолу — йому за жінку.

23

And Saul’s servants spoke those words in the ears of David. And David said, “Does it seem to you a little thing to become the king’s son-in-law, since I am a poor man and have no reputation?”

23

28 І побачив Саул, що Господь з Давидом, і весь Ізраїль полюбив його,

24

And the servants of Saul told him, “Thus and so did David speak.”

24

29 і продовжував косо дивитися на Давида.
