A Novel of King David
David in 1 Samuel 19
(1 Samuel 19:1) And Saul said to his son Jonathan, and to all his servants, to
kill David.
(1 Samuel 19:2) But Jonathan, Saul's son, loved David very much. And Jonathan
told David, saying, My father Saul seeks to kill you. And now please be careful
until morning, and stay in a secret place, and hide yourself.
(1 Samuel 19:3) And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where
you are, and I will talk about you with my father. And I will tell you what I
see.
(1 Samuel 19:4) And Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to
him, Do not let the king sin against his servant, against David, because he has
not sinned against you, and because his works are very good toward you.
(1 Samuel 19:5) For he took his life in his hand and killed the Philistine, and
Jehovah worked out a great salvation for all Israel. You saw and rejoiced! Why
then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?
(1 Samuel 19:6) And Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan. And Saul swore, As
Jehovah lives, he shall not die.
(1 Samuel 19:7) And 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.
(1 Samuel 19:8) And there was war again. And David went out and fought with the
Philistines, and killed them with a great slaughter. And they fled from him.
(1 Samuel 19:9) And the evil spirit from Jehovah was on Saul as he sat in his
house with his spear in his hand. And David played with his hand.
(1 Samuel 19:10) And Saul thought to strike David even to the wall with the
spear. But he burst forth from Saul's presence, and he struck the spear into the
wall. And David fled and escaped that night.
(1 Samuel 19:11) Saul also sent messengers to David's house to watch him and to
kill him in the morning. And David's wife Michal told him saying, If you do not
save your life tonight, tomorrow you shall be killed.
(1 Samuel 19:12) And Michal let David down through a window. And he left and
hurried away, and escaped.
(1 Samuel 19:13) And Michal took an image and laid it in the bed, and put a
pillow of goats' hair at its head, and covered it with a cloth.
(1 Samuel 19:14) And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is
sick.
(1 Samuel 19:15) And Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, Bring him up
to me in the bed so that I may kill him.
(1 Samuel 19:16) And the messengers came in, and behold, the image was in the
bed with a pillow of goats' hair at its head.
(1 Samuel 19:17) And Saul said to Michal, Why have you deceived me so, and sent
away my enemy so that he has escaped? And Michal answered Saul, He said to me,
Let me go; why should I kill you?
(1 Samuel 19:18) And 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 lived in
Naioth.
(1 Samuel 19:19) And it was told to Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth in
Ramah.
(1 Samuel 19:20) And 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 came on the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
(1 Samuel 19:21) And they told Saul, and he sent other messengers, and they also
prophesied. And Saul sent messengers the third time, and they prophesied also.
(1 Samuel 19:22) And he also went to Ramah, and came to a great well in Sechu.
And he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, Behold, at
Naioth in Ramah.
(1 Samuel 19:23) And he went there to Naioth in Ramah. And the Spirit of God was
on him also, and going on he went and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in
Ramah.
(1 Samuel 19:24) And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied before
Samuel, even he. And he lay down disrobed all that day and all that night.
Because of this they say, Is Saul also among the prophets?
