¹

И# востA давjдъ tтyду и3 сёде во ўзи1нахъ є3нгаддJ.

¹

And David rose up from thence, and dwelt in the narrow passes of Engaddi.

²

И# бhсть є3гдA возврати1сz саyлъ вспsть t и3ноплемє1нникъ, и3 возвэсти1ша є3мY, глаг0люще: сE, давjдъ въ пустhни є3нгaдстэй.

²

And it came to pass when Saul returned from pursuing after the Philistines, that it was reported to him, saying, David is in the wilderness of Engaddi.

³

И# взS саyлъ съ соб0ю три2 тhсzщы мужeй и3збрaнныхъ t всегw2 ї}лz и3 и4де и3скaти давjда и3 мужeй є3гw2 прsмw лицY саддeемъ:

³

And he took with him three thousand men, chosen out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men in front of Saddæem.

⁴

и3 пріи1де до стaдъ пас0мыхъ на пути2, и3 бЁ тaмw вертeпъ: и3 саyлъ вни1де и3спраздни1тисz, давjдъ же и3 мyжіе є3гw2 во внyтреннихъ вертeпа сэдsху.

⁴

And he came to the flocks of sheep that were by the way, and there was a cave there; and Saul went in to make preparation, and David and his men were sitting in the inner part of the cave.

⁵

И# рёша мyжіе давjдwвы къ немY: сE, дeнь сeй, њ нeмже речE гDь тебЁ предaти врагA твоего2 въ рyцэ твои2, и3 сотвори1ши є3мY ћкоже ўг0дно пред8 nчи1ма твои1ма. И# востA давjдъ, и3 tрёза воскри1ліе nдeжды саyли w4тай.

⁵

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.

⁶

И# бhсть по си1хъ, и3 вострепетA давjду сeрдце є3гw2, ћкw tрёза воскри1ліе nдeжды саyли:

⁶

And it came to pass after this that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off the skirt of his garment.

⁷

и3 речE давjдъ къ мужє1мъ свои6мъ: никaкоже ми2 t гDа, ѓще сотворю2 глаг0лъ сeй господи1ну моемY хрістY гDню, є4же нанести2 рyку мою2 нaнь, ћкw хріст0съ гDень є4сть сeй.

⁷

And David said to his men, The Lord forbid it me, that I should do this thing to my lord the anointed of the Lord, to lift my hand against him; for he is the anointed of the Lord.

⁸

И# ўвэщA давjдъ мyжы сво‰ словесы2 и3 не дадE и5мъ востaвшымъ ўби1ти саyла. И# востA саyлъ, и3 сни1де на пyть.

⁸

So David persuaded his men by his words, and did not suffer them to arise and slay Saul: and Saul arose and went his way.

⁹

И# и3зhде давjдъ в8слёдъ є3гw2 и3з8 вертeпа: и3 возопи2 давjдъ в8слёдъ саyла, глаг0лz: господи1не царю2. И# њзрёсz саyлъ в8слёдъ себє2, и3 преклони1сz давjдъ лицeмъ свои1мъ до земли2, и3 поклони1сz є3мY.

⁹

And David rose up and went after him out of the cave: and David cried after Saul, saying, My lord, O king! and Saul looked behind him, and David bowed with his face to the ground, and did obeisance to him.

¹⁰

И# речE давjдъ къ саyлу: почто2 слyшаеши словeсъ людjй глаг0лющихъ: сE, давjдъ и4щетъ души2 твоеS;

¹⁰

And David said to Saul, Why dost thou hearken to the words of the people, saying, Behold, David seeks thy life?

¹¹

сE, днeсь ви1дэста џчи твои2, ћкw предадe тz гDь днeсь въ рyцэ мои2 въ вертeпэ, и3 не восхотёхъ ўби1ти тебE, и3 пощадёхъ тS, и3 рёхъ: не нанесY руки2 моеS на г0спода моего2, ћкw помaзанникъ гDень сeй є4сть:

¹¹

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.

¹²

и3 сE, воскри1ліе nдeжды твоеS въ руцЁ моeй, ѓзъ tsхъ воскри1ліе nдeжды твоеS, и3 не ўби1хъ тебE: и3 ўразумёй, и3 ви1ждь днeсь, ћкw нёсть ѕл0бы въ руцЁ моeй, нижE нечeстіz и3 през0рства, нижE согрэши1хъ къ тебЁ, ґ ты2 и4щеши души2 моеS и3з8sти ю5:

¹²

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.

¹³

да сyдитъ гDь междY мн0ю и3 тоб0ю, и3 да защи1титъ мS гDь t тебє2: рукA же моS не бyдетъ на тS,

¹³

The Lord judge between me and thee, and the Lord requite thee on thyself: but my hand shall not be upon thee.

¹⁴

ћкоже глаг0летсz при1тча дрeвнzz: t беззакHнникъ и3зhдетъ преступлeніе: рукA же моS не бyдетъ на тS:

¹⁴

As the old proverb says, Transgression will proceed from the wicked ones: but my hand shall not be upon thee.

¹⁵

и3 нн7э ты2, царю2 ї}левъ, в8слёдъ когw2 и3сх0диши; кого2 ты2 г0ниши; в8слёдъ ли псA ўмeрша и3 в8слёдъ блохи2 є3ди1ныz;

¹⁵

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?

¹⁶

да бyдетъ гDь судіS и3 tмсти1тель междY мн0ю и3 тоб0ю, да ви1дитъ гDь и3 сyдитъ сyдъ м0й, и3 њсyдитъ мS t руки2 твоеS.

¹⁶

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.

¹⁷

И# бhсть, є3гдA скончA давjдъ глаг0лы сі‰, глаг0лz къ саyлу, и3 речE саyлъ: тв0й ли глaсъ сeй, чaдо давjде; И# воздви1же саyлъ глaсъ св0й и3 восплaкасz.

¹⁷

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.

¹⁸

И# речE саyлъ къ давjду: прaведенъ є3си2 ты2 пaче менє2, ћкw ты2 воздaлъ ми2 є3си2 благ†z, ѓзъ же тебЁ воздaхъ ѕл†z:

¹⁸

And Saul said to David, Thou art more righteous than I, for thou hast recompensed me good, but I have recompensed thee evil.

¹⁹

и3 ты2 возвэсти1лъ ми2 є3си2 днeсь, ±же сотвори1лъ ми2 благ†z, ћкw заключи1 мz гDь въ рyки тво‰ днeсь, и3 не ўби1лъ мS є3си2:

¹⁹

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.

²⁰

и3 ћкоже ѓще кто2 њбрёлъ бы врагA своего2 въ печaли, и3 tпусти1лъ бы є3го2 въ пyть блaгъ, и3 гDь воздaстъ є3мY благ†z, ћкоже ты2 сотвори1лъ є3си2 днeсь:

²⁰

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.

²¹

и3 нн7э сE, ѓзъ вёмъ, ћкw царю1z цaрствовати и4маши, и3 стaти и4мать въ руцЁ твоeй цaрство ї}лево:

²¹

And now, behold, I know that thou shalt surely reign, and the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thy hand.

²²

и3 нн7э клени1сz ми2 гDемъ, ћкw не и3скорени1ши сёмене моегw2 по мнЁ и3 не погуби1ши и4мене моегw2 t д0му nтцA моегw2.

²²

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.

²³

И# клsтсz давjдъ саyлу. И# tи1де саyлъ на мёсто своE, давjдъ же и3 мyжіе є3гw2 взыд0ша въ мессeру тёсную.

²³

So David swore to Saul: and Saul departed to his place, and David and his men went up to the strong-hold of Messera.
