1Samuel:9:2 @He had a son whose name was Saul, a choice and handsome man, and there was not a more handsome person than he among the sons of Israel; from his shoulders and up he was taller than any of the people.
nasb@1Samuel:9:3 @Now the donkeys of Kish, Saul's father, were lost. So Kish said to his son Saul, "Take now with you one of the servants, and arise, go search for the donkeys."
nasb@1Samuel:9:5 @When they came to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant who was with him, "Come, and let us return, or else my father will cease to be concerned about the donkeys and will become anxious for us."
nasb@1Samuel:9:7 @Then Saul said to his servant, "But behold, if we go, what shall we bring the man? For the bread is gone from our sack and there is no present to bring to the man of God. What do we have?"
nasb@1Samuel:9:8 @The servant answered Saul again and said, "Behold, I have in my hand a fourth of a shekel of silver; I will give it to the man of God and he will tell us our way."
nasb@1Samuel:9:10 @Then Saul said to his servant, "Well said; come, let us go." So they went to the city where the man of God was.
nasb@1Samuel:9:15 @Now a day before Saul's coming, the LORD had revealed this to Samuel saying,
nasb@1Samuel:9:17 @When Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said to him, " Behold, the man of whom I spoke to you! This one shall rule over My people."
nasb@1Samuel:9:18 @Then Saul approached Samuel in the gate and said, "Please tell me where the seer's house is."
nasb@1Samuel:9:19 @Samuel answered Saul and said, "I am the seer. Go up before me to the high place, for you shall eat with me today; and in the morning I will let you go, and will tell you all that is on your mind.
nasb@1Samuel:9:21 @Saul replied, " Am I not a Benjamite, of the smallest of the tribes of Israel, and my family the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? Why then do you speak to me in this way?"
nasb@1Samuel:9:22 @Then Samuel took Saul and his servant and brought them into the hall and gave them a place at the head of those who were invited, who were about thirty men.
nasb@1Samuel:9:24 @Then the cook took up the leg with what was on it and set it before Saul. And Samuel said, "Here is what has been reserved! Set it before you and eat, because it has been kept for you until the appointed time, since I said I have invited the people." So Saul ate with Samuel that day.
nasb@1Samuel:9:25 @When they came down from the high place into the city, Samuel spoke with Saul on the roof.
nasb@1Samuel:9:26 @And they arose early; and at daybreak Samuel called to Saul on the roof, saying, "Get up, that I may send you away." So Saul arose, and both he and Samuel went out into the street.
nasb@1Samuel:9:27 @As they were going down to the edge of the city, Samuel said to Saul, "Say to the servant that he might go ahead of us and pass on, but you remain standing now, that I may proclaim the word of God to you."
nasb@1Samuel:9:11 @It came about, when all who knew him previously saw that he prophesied now with the prophets, that the people said to one another, "What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?"
nasb@1Samuel:9:12 @A man there said, "Now, who is their father?" Therefore it became a proverb- " Is Saul also among the prophets?"
nasb@1Samuel:9:14 @Now Saul's uncle said to him and his servant, "Where did you go?" And he said, " To look for the donkeys. When we saw that they could not be found, we went to Samuel."
nasb@1Samuel:9:15 @Saul's uncle said, "Please tell me what Samuel said to you."
nasb@1Samuel:9:16 @So Saul said to his uncle, " He told us plainly that the donkeys had been found." But he did not tell him about the matter of the kingdom which Samuel had mentioned.
nasb@1Samuel:9:21 @Then he brought the tribe of Benjamin near by its families, and the Matrite family was taken. And Saul the son of Kish was taken; but when they looked for him, he could not be found.
nasb@1Samuel:9:26 @Saul also went to his house at Gibeah; and the valiant men whose hearts God had touched went with him.
nasb@1Samuel:10:4 @Then the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul and spoke these words in the hearing of the people, and all the people lifted up their voices and wept.
nasb@1Samuel:10:5 @Now behold, Saul was coming from the field behind the oxen, and he said, "What is the matter with the people that they weep?" So they related to him the words of the men of Jabesh.
nasb@1Samuel:10:6 @Then the Spirit of God came upon Saul mightily when he heard these words, and he became very angry.
nasb@1Samuel:10:7 @He took a yoke of oxen and cut them in pieces, and sent them throughout the territory of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, " Whoever does not come out after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen." Then the dread of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out as one man.
nasb@1Samuel:10:11 @The next morning Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp at the morning watch and struck down the Ammonites until the heat of the day. Those who survived were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.
nasb@1Samuel:10:12 @Then the people said to Samuel, " Who is he that said, 'Shall Saul reign over us?' Bring the men, that we may put them to death."
nasb@1Samuel:10:13 @But Saul said, " Not a man shall be put to death this day, for today the LORD has accomplished deliverance in Israel."
nasb@1Samuel:10:15 @So all the people went to Gilgal, and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal. There they also offered sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.
nasb@1Samuel:11:1 @Saul was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty two years over Israel.
nasb@1Samuel:11:2 @Now Saul chose for himself 3,000 men of Israel, of which 2,000 were with Saul in Michmash and in the hill country of Bethel, while 1,000 were with Jonathan at Gibeah of Benjamin. But he sent away the rest of the people, each to his tent.
nasb@1Samuel:11:3 @Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. Then Saul blew the trumpet throughout the land, saying, "Let the Hebrews hear."
nasb@1Samuel:11:4 @All Israel heard the news that Saul had smitten the garrison of the Philistines, and also that Israel had become odious to the Philistines. The people were then summoned to Saul at Gilgal.
nasb@1Samuel:11:7 @Also some of the Hebrews crossed the Jordan into the land of Gad and Gilead. But as for Saul, he was still in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
nasb@1Samuel:11:9 @So Saul said, "Bring to me the burnt offering and the peace offerings." And he offered the burnt offering.
nasb@1Samuel:11:10 @As soon as he finished offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him and to greet him.
nasb@1Samuel:11:11 @But Samuel said, "What have you done?" And Saul said, "Because I saw that the people were scattering from me, and that you did not come within the appointed days, and that the Philistines were assembling at Michmash,
nasb@1Samuel:11:13 @Samuel said to Saul, " You have acted foolishly; you have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which He commanded you, for now the LORD would have established your kingdom over Israel forever.
nasb@1Samuel:11:15 @Then Samuel arose and went up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people who were present with him, about six hundred men.
nasb@1Samuel:11:16 @Now Saul and his son Jonathan and the people who were present with them were staying in Geba of Benjamin while the Philistines camped at Michmash.
nasb@1Samuel:11:22 @So it came about on the day of battle that neither sword nor spear was found in the hands of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan, but they were found with Saul and his son Jonathan.
nasb@1Samuel:12:1 @Now the day came that Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the young man who was carrying his armor, "Come and let us cross over to the Philistines' garrison that is on the other side." But he did not tell his father.
nasb@1Samuel:12:2 @Saul was staying in the outskirts of Gibeah under the pomegranate tree which is in Migron. And the people who were with him were about six hundred men,
nasb@1Samuel:12:16 @Now Saul's watchmen in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and behold, the multitude melted away; and they went here and there.
nasb@1Samuel:12:17 @Saul said to the people who were with him, "Number now and see who has gone from us." And when they had numbered, behold, Jonathan and his armor bearer were not there.
nasb@1Samuel:12:18 @Then Saul said to Ahijah, " Bring the ark of God here." For the ark of God was at that time with the sons of Israel.
nasb@1Samuel:12:19 @While Saul talked to the priest, the commotion in the camp of the Philistines continued and increased; so Saul said to the priest, "Withdraw your hand."
nasb@1Samuel:12:20 @Then Saul and all the people who were with him rallied and came to the battle; and behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, and there was very great confusion.
nasb@1Samuel:12:21 @Now the Hebrews who were with the Philistines previously, who went up with them all around in the camp, even they also turned to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
nasb@1Samuel:12:24 @Now the men of Israel were hard-pressed on that day, for Saul had put the people under oath, saying, "Cursed be the man who eats food before evening, and until I have avenged myself on my enemies." So none of the people tasted food.
nasb@1Samuel:12:33 @Then they told Saul, saying, "Behold, the people are sinning against the LORD by eating with the blood." And he said, "You have acted treacherously; roll a great stone to me today."
nasb@1Samuel:12:34 @Saul said, "Disperse yourselves among the people and say to them, 'Each one of you bring me his ox or his sheep, and slaughter it here and eat; and do not sin against the LORD by eating with the blood.'" So all the people that night brought each one his ox with him and slaughtered it there.
nasb@1Samuel:12:35 @And Saul built an altar to the LORD; it was the first altar that he built to the LORD.
nasb@1Samuel:12:36 @Then Saul said, "Let us go down after the Philistines by night and take spoil among them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them." And they said, "Do whatever seems good to you." So the priest said, "Let us draw near to God here."
nasb@1Samuel:12:37 @Saul inquired of God, "Shall I go down after the Philistines? Will You give them into the hand of Israel?" But He did not answer him on that day.
nasb@1Samuel:12:38 @Saul said, " Draw near here, all you chiefs of the people, and investigate and see how this sin has happened today.
nasb@1Samuel:12:40 @Then he said to all Israel, "You shall be on one side and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side." And the people said to Saul, "Do what seems good to you."
nasb@1Samuel:12:41 @Therefore, Saul said to the LORD, the God of Israel, " Give a perfect lot." And Jonathan and Saul were taken, but the people escaped.
nasb@1Samuel:12:42 @Saul said, "Cast lots between me and Jonathan my son." And Jonathan was taken.
nasb@1Samuel:12:43 @Then Saul said to Jonathan, " Tell me what you have done." So Jonathan told him and said, " I indeed tasted a little honey with the end of the staff that was in my hand. Here I am, I must die!"
nasb@1Samuel:12:44 @Saul said, " May God do this to me and more also, for you shall surely die, Jonathan."
nasb@1Samuel:12:45 @But the people said to Saul, "Must Jonathan die, who has brought about this great deliverance in Israel? Far from it! As the LORD lives, not one hair of his head shall fall to the ground, for he has worked with God this day." So the people rescued Jonathan and he did not die.
nasb@1Samuel:12:46 @Then Saul went up from pursuing the Philistines, and the Philistines went to their own place.
nasb@1Samuel:12:47 @Now when Saul had taken the kingdom over Israel, he fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, the sons of Ammon, Edom, the kings of Zobah, and the Philistines; and wherever he turned, he inflicted punishment.
nasb@1Samuel:12:49 @Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan and Ishvi and Malchi-shua; and the names of his two daughters were these- the name of the firstborn Merab and the name of the younger Michal.
nasb@1Samuel:12:50 @The name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam the daughter of Ahimaaz. And the name of the captain of his army was Abner the son of Ner, Saul's uncle.
nasb@1Samuel:12:51 @Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abiel.
nasb@1Samuel:12:52 @Now the war against the Philistines was severe all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man or any valiant man, he attached him to his staff.
nasb@1Samuel:12:15 @Then Samuel said to Saul, " The LORD sent me to anoint you as king over His people, over Israel; now therefore, listen to the words of the LORD.
nasb@1Samuel:12:4 @Then Saul summoned the people and numbered them in Telaim, 200,000 foot soldiers and 10,000 men of Judah.
nasb@1Samuel:12:5 @Saul came to the city of Amalek and set an ambush in the valley.
nasb@1Samuel:12:6 @Saul said to the Kenites, "Go, depart, go down from among the Amalekites, so that I do not destroy you with them; for you showed kindness to all the sons of Israel when they came up from Egypt." So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
nasb@1Samuel:12:7 @So Saul defeated the Amalekites, from Havilah as you go to Shur, which is east of Egypt.
nasb@1Samuel:12:9 @But Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the sheep, the oxen, the fatlings, the lambs, and all that was good, and were not willing to destroy them utterly; but everything despised and worthless, that they utterly destroyed.
nasb@1Samuel:12:11" @ I regret that I have made Saul king, for he has turned back from following Me and has not carried out My commands." And Samuel was distressed and cried out to the LORD all night.
nasb@1Samuel:12:12 @Samuel rose early in the morning to meet Saul; and it was told Samuel, saying, "Saul came to Carmel, and behold, he set up a monument for himself, then turned and proceeded on down to Gilgal."
nasb@1Samuel:12:13 @Samuel came to Saul, and Saul said to him, " Blessed are you of the LORD! I have carried out the command of the LORD."
nasb@1Samuel:12:15 @Saul said, "They have brought them from the Amalekites, for the people spared the best of the sheep and oxen, to sacrifice to the LORD your God; but the rest we have utterly destroyed."
nasb@1Samuel:12:16 @Then Samuel said to Saul, "Wait, and let me tell you what the LORD said to me last night." And he said to him, "Speak!"
nasb@1Samuel:12:20 @Then Saul said to Samuel, " I did obey the voice of the LORD, and went on the mission on which the LORD sent me, and have brought back Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.
nasb@1Samuel:12:24 @Then Saul said to Samuel, " I have sinned; I have indeed transgressed the command of the LORD and your words, because I feared the people and listened to their voice.
nasb@1Samuel:12:26 @But Samuel said to Saul, "I will not return with you; for you have rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you from being king over Israel."
nasb@1Samuel:12:27 @As Samuel turned to go, Saul seized the edge of his robe, and it tore.
nasb@1Samuel:12:31 @So Samuel went back following Saul, and Saul worshiped the LORD.
nasb@1Samuel:12:34 @Then Samuel went to Ramah, but Saul went up to his house at Gibeah of Saul.
nasb@1Samuel:12:35 @Samuel did not see Saul again until the day of his death; for Samuel grieved over Saul. And the LORD regretted that He had made Saul king over Israel.
nasb@1Samuel:13:1 @Now the LORD said to Samuel, " How long will you grieve over Saul, since I have rejected him from being king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and go; I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have selected a king for Myself among his sons."
nasb@1Samuel:13:2 @But Samuel said, "How can I go? When Saul hears of it, he will kill me." And the LORD said, " Take a heifer with you and say, 'I have come to sacrifice to the LORD.'
nasb@1Samuel:13:14 @Now the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD terrorized him.
nasb@1Samuel:13:15 @Saul's servants then said to him, "Behold now, an evil spirit from God is terrorizing you.
nasb@1Samuel:13:17 @So Saul said to his servants, "Provide for me now a man who can play well and bring him to me."
nasb@1Samuel:13:19 @So Saul sent messengers to Jesse and said, "Send me your son David who is with the flock."
nasb@1Samuel:13:20 @Jesse took a donkey loaded with bread and a jug of wine and a young goat, and sent them to Saul by David his son.
nasb@1Samuel:13:21 @Then David came to Saul and attended him; and Saul loved him greatly, and he became his armor bearer.
nasb@1Samuel:13:22 @Saul sent to Jesse, saying, "Let David now stand before me, for he has found favor in my sight."
nasb@1Samuel:13:23 @So it came about whenever the evil spirit from God came to Saul, David would take the harp and play it with his hand; and Saul would be refreshed and be well, and the evil spirit would depart from him.
nasb@1Samuel:14:2 @Saul and the men of Israel were gathered and camped in the valley of Elah, and drew up in battle array to encounter the Philistines.
nasb@1Samuel:14:8 @He stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel and said to them, "Why do you come out to draw up in battle array? Am I not the Philistine and you servants of Saul? Choose a man for yourselves and let him come down to me.
nasb@1Samuel:14:11 @When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid.
nasb@1Samuel:14:12 @Now David was the son of the Ephrathite of Bethlehem in Judah, whose name was Jesse, and he had eight sons. And Jesse was old in the days of Saul, advanced in years among men.
nasb@1Samuel:14:13 @The three older sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle. And the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and the second to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
nasb@1Samuel:14:14 @David was the youngest. Now the three oldest followed Saul,
nasb@1Samuel:14:15 @but David went back and forth from Saul to tend his father's flock at Bethlehem.
nasb@1Samuel:14:19" @For Saul and they and all the men of Israel are in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines."
nasb@1Samuel:14:31 @When the words which David spoke were heard, they told them to Saul, and he sent for him.
nasb@1Samuel:14:32 @David said to Saul, " Let no man's heart fail on account of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine."
nasb@1Samuel:14:33 @Then Saul said to David, " You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth while he has been a warrior from his youth."
nasb@1Samuel:14:34 @But David said to Saul, "Your servant was tending his father's sheep. When a lion or a bear came and took a lamb from the flock,
nasb@1Samuel:14:37 @And David said, " The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine." And Saul said to David, " Go, and may the LORD be with you."
nasb@1Samuel:14:38 @Then Saul clothed David with his garments and put a bronze helmet on his head, and he clothed him with armor.
nasb@1Samuel:14:39 @David girded his sword over his armor and tried to walk, for he had not tested them. So David said to Saul, "I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them." And David took them off.
nasb@1Samuel:14:55 @Now when Saul saw David going out against the Philistine, he said to Abner the commander of the army, "Abner, whose son is this young man?" And Abner said, "By your life, O king, I do not know."
nasb@1Samuel:14:57 @So when David returned from killing the Philistine, Abner took him and brought him before Saul with the Philistine's head in his hand.
nasb@1Samuel:14:58 @Saul said to him, "Whose son are you, young manNULL" And David answered, " I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite."
nasb@1Samuel:15:1 @Now it came about when he had finished speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as himself.
nasb@1Samuel:15:2 @Saul took him that day and did not let him return to his father's house.
nasb@1Samuel:15:5 @So David went out wherever Saul sent him, and prospered; and Saul set him over the men of war. And it was pleasing in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
nasb@1Samuel:15:6 @It happened as they were coming, when David returned from killing the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tambourines, with joy and with musical instruments.
nasb@1Samuel:15:7 @The women sang as they played, and said, " Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands."
nasb@1Samuel:15:8 @Then Saul became very angry, for this saying displeased him; and he said, "They have ascribed to David ten thousands, but to me they have ascribed thousands. Now what more can he have but the kingdom?"
nasb@1Samuel:15:9 @Saul looked at David with suspicion from that day on.
nasb@1Samuel:15:10 @Now it came about on the next day that an evil spirit from God came mightily upon Saul, and he raved in the midst of the house, while David was playing the harp with his hand, as usual; and a spear was in Saul's hand.
nasb@1Samuel:15:11 @Saul hurled the spear for he thought, "I will pin David to the wall." But David escaped from his presence twice.
nasb@1Samuel:15:12 @Now Saul was afraid of David, for the LORD was with him but had departed from Saul.
nasb@1Samuel:15:13 @Therefore Saul removed him from his presence and appointed him as his commander of a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
nasb@1Samuel:15:15 @When Saul saw that he was prospering greatly, he dreaded him.
nasb@1Samuel:15:17 @Then Saul said to David, " Here is my older daughter Merab; I will give her to you as a wife, only be a valiant man for me and fight the LORD'S battles." For Saul thought, "My hand shall not be against him, but let the hand of the Philistines be against him."
nasb@1Samuel:15:18 @But David said to Saul, " Who am I, and what is my life or my father's family in Israel, that I should be the king's son-in-law?"
nasb@1Samuel:15:19 @So it came about at the time when Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite for a wife.
nasb@1Samuel:15:20 @Now Michal, Saul's daughter, loved David. When they told Saul, the thing was agreeable to him.
nasb@1Samuel:15:21 @Saul thought, "I will give her to him that she may become a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him." Therefore Saul said to David, " For a second time you may be my son-in-law today."
nasb@1Samuel:15:22 @Then Saul commanded his servants, "Speak to David secretly, saying, 'Behold, the king delights in you, and all his servants love you; now therefore, become the king's son-in-law.'"
nasb@1Samuel:15:23 @So Saul's servants spoke these words to David. But David said, "Is it trivial in your sight to become the king's son-in-law, since I am a poor man and lightly esteemed?"
nasb@1Samuel:15:24 @The servants of Saul reported to him according to these words which David spoke.
nasb@1Samuel:15:25 @Saul then said, "Thus you shall say to David, 'The king does not desire any dowry except a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to take vengeance on the king's enemies.'" Now Saul planned to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
nasb@1Samuel:15:27 @David rose up and went, he and his men, and struck down two hundred men among the Philistines. Then David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might become the king's son-in-law. So Saul gave him Michal his daughter for a wife.
nasb@1Samuel:15:28 @When Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that Michal, Saul's daughter, loved him,
nasb@1Samuel:15:29 @then Saul was even more afraid of David. Thus Saul was David's enemy continually.
nasb@1Samuel:15:30 @Then the commanders of the Philistines went out to battle, and it happened as often as they went out, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul. So his name was highly esteemed.
nasb@1Samuel:16:1 @Now Saul told Jonathan his son and all his servants to put David to death. But Jonathan, Saul's son, greatly delighted in David.
nasb@1Samuel:16:2 @So Jonathan told David saying, "Saul my father is seeking to put you to death. Now therefore, please be on guard in the morning, and stay in a secret place and hide yourself.
nasb@1Samuel:16:4 @Then Jonathan spoke well of David to Saul his father and said to him, " Do not let the king sin against his servant David, since he has not sinned against you, and since his deeds have been very beneficial to you.
nasb@1Samuel:16:6 @Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan, and Saul vowed, "As the LORD lives, he shall not be put to death."
nasb@1Samuel:16:7 @Then Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all these words. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as formerly.
nasb@1Samuel:16:9 @Now there was an evil spirit from the LORD on Saul as he was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand, and David was playing the harp with his hand.
nasb@1Samuel:16:10 @Saul tried to pin David to the wall with the spear, but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, so that he stuck the spear into the wall. And David fled and escaped that night.
nasb@1Samuel:16:11 @Then Saul sent messengers to David's house to watch him, in order to put him to death in the morning. But Michal, David's wife, told him, saying, "If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be put to death."
nasb@1Samuel:16:14 @When Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, " He is sick."
nasb@1Samuel:16:15 @Then Saul sent messengers to see David, saying, "Bring him up to me on his bed, that I may put him to death."
nasb@1Samuel:16:17 @So Saul said to Michal, "Why have you deceived me like this and let my enemy go, so that he has escaped?" And Michal said to Saul, "He said to me, 'Let me go! Why should I put you to death?'"
nasb@1Samuel:16:18 @Now David fled and escaped and came to Samuel at Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and stayed in Naioth.
nasb@1Samuel:16:19 @It was told Saul, saying, "Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah."
nasb@1Samuel:16:20 @Then Saul sent messengers to take David, but when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, with Samuel standing and presiding over them, the Spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul; and they also prophesied.
nasb@1Samuel:16:21 @When it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied. So Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also prophesied.
nasb@1Samuel:16:24 @He also stripped off his clothes, and he too prophesied before Samuel and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, " Is Saul also among the prophetsNULL"
nasb@1Samuel:17:25 @The king sat on his seat as usual, the seat by the wall; then Jonathan rose up and Abner sat down by Saul's side, but David's place was empty.
nasb@1Samuel:17:26 @Nevertheless Saul did not speak anything that day, for he thought, "It is an accident, he is not clean, surely he is not clean."
nasb@1Samuel:17:27 @It came about the next day, the second day of the new moon, that David's place was empty; so Saul said to Jonathan his son, "Why has the son of Jesse not come to the meal, either yesterday or today?"
nasb@1Samuel:17:28 @Jonathan then answered Saul, " David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Bethlehem,
nasb@1Samuel:17:30 @Then Saul's anger burned against Jonathan and he said to him, "You son of a perverse, rebellious woman! Do I not know that you are choosing the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the shame of your mother's nakedness?
nasb@1Samuel:17:32 @But Jonathan answered Saul his father and said to him, " Why should he be put to death? What has he done?"
nasb@1Samuel:17:33 @Then Saul hurled his spear at him to strike him down; so Jonathan knew that his father had decided to put David to death.
nasb@1Samuel:18:7 @Now one of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before the LORD; and his name was Doeg the Edomite, the chief of Saul's shepherds.
nasb@1Samuel:18:10 @Then David arose and fled that day from Saul, and went to Achish king of Gath.
nasb@1Samuel:18:11 @But the servants of Achish said to him, "Is this not David the king of the land? Did they not sing of this one as they danced, saying, 'Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands'?"
nasb@1Samuel:19:6 @Then Saul heard that David and the men who were with him had been discovered. Now Saul was sitting in Gibeah, under the tamarisk tree on the height with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing around him.
nasb@1Samuel:19:7 @Saul said to his servants who stood around him, "Hear now, O Benjamites! Will the son of Jesse also give to all of you fields and vineyards? Will he make you all commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds?
nasb@1Samuel:19:9 @Then Doeg the Edomite, who was standing by the servants of Saul, said, " I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.
nasb@1Samuel:19:12 @Saul said, "Listen now, son of Ahitub." And he answered, "Here I am, my lord."
nasb@1Samuel:19:13 @Saul then said to him, "Why have you and the son of Jesse conspired against me, in that you have given him bread and a sword and have inquired of God for him, so that he would rise up against me by lying in ambush as it is this day?"
nasb@1Samuel:19:21 @Abiathar told David that Saul had killed the priests of the LORD.
nasb@1Samuel:19:22 @Then David said to Abiathar, "I knew on that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I have brought about the death of every person in your father's household.
nasb@1Samuel:20:7 @When it was told Saul that David had come to Keilah, Saul said, "God has delivered him into my hand, for he shut himself in by entering a city with double gates and bars."
nasb@1Samuel:20:8 @So Saul summoned all the people for war, to go down to Keilah to besiege David and his men.
nasb@1Samuel:20:9 @Now David knew that Saul was plotting evil against him; so he said to Abiathar the priest, " Bring the ephod here."
nasb@1Samuel:20:10 @Then David said, "O LORD God of Israel, Your servant has heard for certain that Saul is seeking to come to Keilah to destroy the city on my account.
nasb@1Samuel:20:11" @Will the men of Keilah surrender me into his hand? Will Saul come down just as Your servant has heard? O LORD God of Israel, I pray, tell Your servant." And the LORD said, "He will come down."
nasb@1Samuel:20:12 @Then David said, "Will the men of Keilah surrender me and my men into the hand of Saul?" And the LORD said, " They will surrender you."
nasb@1Samuel:20:13 @Then David and his men, about six hundred, arose and departed from Keilah, and they went wherever they could go. When it was told Saul that David had escaped from Keilah, he gave up the pursuit.
nasb@1Samuel:20:14 @David stayed in the wilderness in the strongholds, and remained in the hill country in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God did not deliver him into his hand.
nasb@1Samuel:20:15 @Now David became aware that Saul had come out to seek his life while David was in the wilderness of Ziph at Horesh.
nasb@1Samuel:20:16 @And Jonathan, Saul's son, arose and went to David at Horesh, and encouraged him in God.
nasb@1Samuel:20:17 @Thus he said to him, " Do not be afraid, because the hand of Saul my father will not find you, and you will be king over Israel and I will be next to you; and Saul my father knows that also."
nasb@1Samuel:20:19 @Then Ziphites came up to Saul at Gibeah, saying, "Is David not hiding with us in the strongholds at Horesh, on the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of Jeshimon?
nasb@1Samuel:20:21 @Saul said, "May you be blessed of the LORD, for you have had compassion on me.
nasb@1Samuel:20:24 @Then they arose and went to Ziph before Saul. Now David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the Arabah to the south of Jeshimon.
nasb@1Samuel:20:25 @When Saul and his men went to seek him, they told David, and he came down to the rock and stayed in the wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard it, he pursued David in the wilderness of Maon.
nasb@1Samuel:20:26 @Saul went on one side of the mountain, and David and his men on the other side of the mountain; and David was hurrying to get away from Saul, for Saul and his men were surrounding David and his men to seize them.
nasb@1Samuel:20:27 @But a messenger came to Saul, saying, "Hurry and come, for the Philistines have made a raid on the land."
nasb@1Samuel:20:28 @So Saul returned from pursuing David and went to meet the Philistines; therefore they called that place the Rock of Escape.
nasb@1Samuel:21:1 @Now when Saul returned from pursuing the Philistines, he was told, saying, "Behold, David is in the wilderness of Engedi."
nasb@1Samuel:21:2 @Then Saul took three thousand chosen men from all Israel and went to seek David and his men in front of the Rocks of the Wild Goats.
nasb@1Samuel:21:3 @He came to the sheepfolds on the way, where there was a cave; and Saul went in to relieve himself. Now David and his men were sitting in the inner recesses of the cave.
nasb@1Samuel:21:4 @The men of David said to him, "Behold, this is the day of which the LORD said to you, 'Behold; I am about to give your enemy into your hand, and you shall do to him as it seems good to you.'" Then David arose and cut off the edge of Saul's robe secretly.
nasb@1Samuel:21:5 @It came about afterward that David's conscience bothered him because he had cut off the edge of Saul's robe.
nasb@1Samuel:21:7 @David persuaded his men with these words and did not allow them to rise up against Saul. And Saul arose, left the cave, and went on his way.
nasb@1Samuel:21:8 @Now afterward David arose and went out of the cave and called after Saul, saying, "My lord the king!" And when Saul looked behind him, David bowed with his face to the ground and prostrated himself.
nasb@1Samuel:21:9 @David said to Saul, "Why do you listen to the words of men, saying, 'Behold, David seeks to harm you'?
nasb@1Samuel:21:16 @When David had finished speaking these words to Saul, Saul said, " Is this your voice, my son David?" Then Saul lifted up his voice and wept.
nasb@1Samuel:21:22 @David swore to Saul. And Saul went to his home, but David and his men went up to the stronghold.
nasb@1Samuel:22:44 @Now Saul had given Michal his daughter, David's wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was from Gallim.
nasb@1Samuel:23:1 @Then the Ziphites came to Saul at Gibeah, saying, " Is not David hiding on the hill of Hachilah, which is before Jeshimon?"
nasb@1Samuel:23:2 @So Saul arose and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having with him three thousand chosen men of Israel, to search for David in the wilderness of Ziph.
nasb@1Samuel:23:3 @Saul camped in the hill of Hachilah, which is before Jeshimon, beside the road, and David was staying in the wilderness. When he saw that Saul came after him into the wilderness,
nasb@1Samuel:23:4 @David sent out spies, and he knew that Saul was definitely coming.
nasb@1Samuel:23:5 @David then arose and came to the place where Saul had camped. And David saw the place where Saul lay, and Abner the son of Ner, the commander of his army; and Saul was lying in the circle of the camp, and the people were camped around him.
nasb@1Samuel:23:6 @Then David said to Ahimelech the Hittite and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, saying, "Who will go down with me to Saul in the camp?" And Abishai said, "I will go down with you."
nasb@1Samuel:23:7 @So David and Abishai came to the people by night, and behold, Saul lay sleeping inside the circle of the camp with his spear stuck in the ground at his head; and Abner and the people were lying around him.
nasb@1Samuel:23:12 @So David took the spear and the jug of water from beside Saul's head, and they went away, but no one saw or knew it, nor did any awake, for they were all asleep, because a sound sleep from the LORD had fallen on them.
nasb@1Samuel:23:17 @Then Saul recognized David's voice and said, " Is this your voice, my son David?" And David said, "It is my voice, my lord the king."
nasb@1Samuel:23:21 @Then Saul said, " I have sinned. Return, my son David, for I will not harm you again because my life was precious in your sight this day. Behold, I have played the fool and have committed a serious error."
nasb@1Samuel:23:25 @Then Saul said to David, " Blessed are you, my son David; you will both accomplish much and surely prevail." So David went on his way, and Saul returned to his place.
nasb@1Samuel:24:1 @Then David said to himself, "Now I will perish one day by the hand of Saul. There is nothing better for me than to escape into the land of the Philistines. Saul then will despair of searching for me anymore in all the territory of Israel, and I will escape from his hand."
nasb@1Samuel:24:4 @Now it was told Saul that David had fled to Gath, so he no longer searched for him.
nasb@1Samuel:25:3 @Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him and buried him in Ramah, his own city. And Saul had removed from the land those who were mediums and spiritists.
nasb@1Samuel:25:4 @So the Philistines gathered together and came and camped in Shunem; and Saul gathered all Israel together and they camped in Gilboa.
nasb@1Samuel:25:5 @When Saul saw the camp of the Philistines, he was afraid and his heart trembled greatly.
nasb@1Samuel:25:6 @When Saul inquired of the LORD, the LORD did not answer him, either by dreams or by Urim or by prophets.
nasb@1Samuel:25:7 @Then Saul said to his servants, "Seek for me a woman who is a medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her." And his servants said to him, "Behold, there is a woman who is a medium at En-dor."
nasb@1Samuel:25:8 @Then Saul disguised himself by putting on other clothes, and went, he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night; and he said, " Conjure up for me, please, and bring up for me whom I shall name to you."
nasb@1Samuel:25:9 @But the woman said to him, "Behold, you know what Saul has done, how he has cut off those who are mediums and spiritists from the land. Why are you then laying a snare for my life to bring about my death?"
nasb@1Samuel:25:10 @Saul vowed to her by the LORD, saying, "As the LORD lives, no punishment shall come upon you for this thing."
nasb@1Samuel:25:12 @When the woman saw Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice; and the woman spoke to Saul, saying, "Why have you deceived me? For you are Saul."
nasb@1Samuel:25:13 @The king said to her, "Do not be afraid; but what do you see?" And the woman said to Saul, "I see a divine being coming up out of the earth."
nasb@1Samuel:25:14 @He said to her, "What is his form?" And she said, "An old man is coming up, and he is wrapped with a robe." And Saul knew that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground and did homage.
nasb@1Samuel:25:15 @Then Samuel said to Saul, "Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?" And Saul answered, "I am greatly distressed; for the Philistines are waging war against me, and God has departed from me and no longer answers me, either through prophets or by dreams; therefore I have called you, that you may make known to me what I should do."
nasb@1Samuel:25:20 @Then Saul immediately fell full length upon the ground and was very afraid because of the words of Samuel; also there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no food all day and all night.
nasb@1Samuel:25:21 @The woman came to Saul and saw that he was terrified, and said to him, "Behold, your maidservant has obeyed you, and I have taken my life in my hand and have listened to your words which you spoke to me.
nasb@1Samuel:25:25 @She brought it before Saul and his servants, and they ate. Then they arose and went away that night.
nasb@1Samuel:26:3 @Then the commanders of the Philistines said, "What are these Hebrews doing here?" And Achish said to the commanders of the Philistines, "Is this not David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or rather these years, and I have found no fault in him from the day he deserted to me to this day?"
nasb@1Samuel:26:5" @Is this not David, of whom they sing in the dances, saying, 'Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands'?"
nasb@1Samuel:28:2 @The Philistines overtook Saul and his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchi-shua the sons of Saul.
nasb@1Samuel:28:3 @The battle went heavily against Saul, and the archers hit him; and he was badly wounded by the archers.
nasb@1Samuel:28:4 @Then Saul said to his armor bearer, "Draw your sword and pierce me through with it, otherwise these uncircumcised will come and pierce me through and make sport of me." But his armor bearer would not, for he was greatly afraid. So Saul took his sword and fell on it.
nasb@1Samuel:28:5 @When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his sword and died with him.
nasb@1Samuel:28:6 @Thus Saul died with his three sons, his armor bearer, and all his men on that day together.
nasb@1Samuel:28:7 @When the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, with those who were beyond the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned the cities and fled; then the Philistines came and lived in them.
nasb@1Samuel:28:8 @It came about on the next day when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
nasb@1Samuel:28:11 @Now when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,
nasb@1Samuel:28:12 @all the valiant men rose and walked all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth-shan, and they came to Jabesh and burned them there.
nasb@2Samuel:1:1 @Now it came about after the death of Saul, when David had returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, that David remained two days in Ziklag.
nasb@2Samuel:1:2 @On the third day, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul, with his clothes torn and dust on his head. And it came about when he came to David that he fell to the ground and prostrated himself.
nasb@2Samuel:1:4 @David said to him, " How did things go? Please tell me." And he said, "The people have fled from the battle, and also many of the people have fallen and are dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also."
nasb@2Samuel:1:5 @So David said to the young man who told him, "How do you know that Saul and his son Jonathan are dead?"
nasb@2Samuel:1:6 @The young man who told him said, "By chance I happened to be on Mount Gilboa, and behold, Saul was leaning on his spear. And behold, the chariots and the horsemen pursued him closely.
nasb@2Samuel:1:12 @They mourned and wept and fasted until evening for Saul and his son Jonathan and for the people of the LORD and the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
nasb@2Samuel:1:17 @Then David chanted with this lament over Saul and Jonathan his son,
nasb@2Samuel:1:21" @ O mountains of Gilboa, Let not dew or rain be on you, nor fields of offerings; For there the shield of the mighty was defiled, The shield of Saul, not anointed with oil.
nasb@2Samuel:1:22" @ From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan did not turn back, And the sword of Saul did not return empty.
nasb@2Samuel:1:23" @Saul and Jonathan, beloved and pleasant in their life, And in their death they were not parted; They were swifter than eagles, They were stronger than lions.
nasb@2Samuel:1:24" @O daughters of Israel, weep over![[pBiblx2]](/img/menu.png)
