1 Samuel 19 :: Webster's Bible (WEB)

David Protected from Saul

1Sa 19:1And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David.

1Sa 19:2But Jonathan, Saul's son, delighted much in David: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee: now, therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself until the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself:

1Sa 19:3

1Sa 19:3And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and I will commune with my father of thee; and what I see, that I will tell thee.

1Sa 19:4

1Sa 19:4And Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works have been toward thee very good:

1Sa 19:5

1Sa 19:5For he put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou sawest it, and didst rejoice: Why then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?

1Sa 19:6

1Sa 19:6And Saul hearkened to the voice of Jonathan: and Saul swore, As the LORD liveth, he shall not be slain.

1Sa 19:7

1Sa 19:7And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all those things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.

1Sa 19:8

1Sa 19:8And there was war again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and they fled from him.

1Sa 19:9

1Sa 19:9And the evil spirit from the LORD was upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his javelin in his hand: and David played with his hand.

1Sa 19:10

1Sa 19:10And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the javelin; but he slipped away from Saul's presence, and he smote the javelin into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.

1Sa 19:11

1Sa 19:11Saul also sent messengers to David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal, David's wife, told him, saying, If thou dost not save thy life to-night, to-morrow thou wilt be slain.

1Sa 19:12

1Sa 19:12So Michal let David down through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.

1Sa 19:13

1Sa 19:13And Michal took an image, and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goat's hair for his bolster, and covered it with a cloth.

1Sa 19:14

1Sa 19:14And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick.

1Sa 19:15

1Sa 19:15And Saul sent the messengers again to see David, saying, Bring him to me in the bed, that I may slay him.

1Sa 19:16

1Sa 19:16And when the messengers had come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow of goat's hair for his bolster.

1Sa 19:17

1Sa 19:17And Saul said to Michal, Why hast thou deceived me so, and sent away my enemy, that he has escaped? And Michal answered Saul, He said to me, Let me go; why should I kill thee?

1Sa 19:18

1Sa 19:18So David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.

1Sa 19:19

1Sa 19:19And it was told to Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.

1Sa 19:20

1Sa 19:20And Saul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as appointed over them, the Spirit of God was upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.

1Sa 19:21

1Sa 19:21And when it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also.

1Sa 19:22

1Sa 19:22Then he went also to Ramah, and came to a great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, Behold, they are at Naioth in Ramah.

1Sa 19:23

1Sa 19:23And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah: and the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.

1Sa 19:24

1Sa 19:24And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Wherefore they say, Is Saul also among the prophets?
