| 1And it was, as he finished speaking to Saul, that Jonathan's soul had become attached to David's soul, and Jonathan loved him as himself. |
|
אוַיְהִ֗י כְּכַלֹּתוֹ֙ לְדַבֵּ֣ר אֶל־שָׁא֔וּל וְנֶ֙פֶשׁ֙ יְה֣וֹנָתָ֔ן נִקְשְׁרָ֖ה בְּנֶ֣פֶשׁ דָּוִ֑ד וַיֶּאֱהָבֵ֥הוּ (כתיב וַיֶּאֱהָבֵ֥וּ) יְהוֹנָתָ֖ן כְּנַפְשֽׁוֹ: |
| 2And Saul took him on that day, and did not allow him to return to his father's house. |
|
בוַיִּקָּחֵ֥הוּ שָׁא֖וּל בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֑וּא וְלֹ֣א נְתָנ֔וֹ לָשׁ֖וּב בֵּ֥ית אָבִֽיו: |
| 3And Jonathan made a covenant with David because he loved him as himself. |
|
גוַיִּכְרֹ֧ת יְהוֹנָתָ֛ן וְדָוִ֖ד בְּרִ֑ית בְּאַהֲבָת֥וֹ אֹת֖וֹ כְּנַפְשֽׁוֹ: |
| 4And Jonathan stripped himself of the cloak which was on him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and even to his bow, and even to his girdle. |
|
דוַיִּתְפַּשֵּׁ֣ט יְהוֹנָתָ֗ן אֶֽת־הַמְּעִיל֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָלָ֔יו וַֽיִּתְּנֵ֖הוּ לְדָוִ֑ד וּמַדָּ֕יו וְעַד־חַרְבּ֥וֹ וְעַד־קַשְׁתּ֖וֹ וְעַד־חֲגֹרֽוֹ: |
| 5And David went out; wherever Saul would send him, he would succeed; accordingly, Saul appointed him over the soldiers, and he was pleasing in the eyes of all the people, and also in the eyes of Saul's servants. |
|
הוַיֵּצֵ֨א דָוִ֜ד בְּכֹל֩ אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִשְׁלָחֶ֚נּוּ שָׁאוּל֙ יַשְׂכִּ֔יל וַיְשִׂמֵ֣הוּ שָׁא֔וּל עַ֖ל אַנְשֵׁ֣י הַמִּלְחָמָ֑ה וַיִּיטַב֙ בְּעֵינֵ֣י כָל־הָעָ֔ם וְגַ֕ם בְּעֵינֵ֖י עַבְדֵ֥י שָׁאֽוּל: |
| 6And it was when they came, when David returned from slaying the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, to sing, and with musical instruments (in their hands), toward King Saul, with drums, with joy, and with cymbals. |
|
ווַיְהִ֣י בְּבוֹאָ֗ם בְּשׁ֚וּב דָּוִד֙ מֵהַכּ֣וֹת אֶת־הַפְּלִשְׁתִּ֔י וַתֵּצֶ֨אנָה הַנָּשִׁ֜ים מִכָּל־עָרֵ֚י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ לָשִׁ֣יר (כתיב לָשִׁ֣ור) וְהַמְּחֹל֔וֹת לִקְרַ֖את שָׁא֣וּל הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ בְּתֻפִּ֥ים בְּשִׂמְחָ֖ה וּבְשָׁלִשִֽׁים: |
| and with cymbals. (ובשלשים) - Jonathan renders: and with cymbals, a type of musical instrument. |
|

|
| 7And the cheering women sang out and said, "Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands." |
|

| 8And Saul was very chagrined, and the matter displeased him, and he said, "They ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they ascribed the thousands. And what more can he have, but the kingdom?" |
|
חוַיִּ֨חַר לְשָׁא֜וּל מְאֹ֗ד וַיֵּ֚רַע בְּעֵינָיו֙ הַדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּ֔ה וַיֹּ֗אמֶר נָתְנ֚וּ לְדָוִד֙ רְבָב֔וֹת וְלִ֥י נָתְנ֖וּ הָאֲלָפִ֑ים וְע֥וֹד ל֖וֹ אַ֥ךְ הַמְּלוּכָֽה: |

|
| 9And Saul eyed David from that day on. |
|

| eyed. with an envious glance. |
|
עוין.
(תרגום:) עין רעה:
|
| 10And it was on the morrow, that the evil spirit from God rested upon Saul, and he raved in the midst of the house, and David was playing with his hand like everyday, and the spear was in Saul's hand. |
|
יוַיְהִ֣י מִֽמָּחֳרָ֗ת וַתִּצְלַ֣ח רוּחַ֩ אֱלֹהִ֨ים | רָעָ֚ה | אֶל־שָׁאוּל֙ וַיִּתְנַבֵּ֣א בְתוֹךְ־הַבַּ֔יִת וְדָוִ֛ד מְנַגֵּ֥ן בְּיָד֖וֹ כְּי֣וֹם | בְּי֑וֹם וְהַחֲנִ֖ית בְּיַד־שָׁאֽוּל: |
| and he raved. (lit., he prophesied. Jonathan renders:) and he raved. A prophet and a mad man speak with unintelligible hints. |
|
יתנבא.
ואשתטי נביא ושוטה מדברים דברי רמזים שאינם ניכרים:
|
| 11And Saul cast the spear, and said, "I shall pin David to the wall," and David turned from before him twice. |
|
יאוַיָּ֚טֶל שָׁאוּל֙ אֶֽת־הַחֲנִ֔ית וַיֹּ֕אמֶר אַכֶּ֥ה בְדָוִ֖ד וּבַקִּ֑יר וַיִּסֹּ֥ב דָּוִ֛ד מִפָּנָ֖יו פַּעֲמָֽיִם: |
| “I shall pin David to the wall,”. (lit., I shall strike David and the wall) I shall strike one blow that the spear will pierce David and the wall. |
|
אכה בדוד ובקיר.

|
| 12And Saul feared David, for the Lord was with him, while He had turned away from Saul. |
|

| 13And Saul removed him from (being) with him, and made him for himself a captain over a thousand, and he went out and came in before the people. |
|

| 16And all Israel and Judah loved David, for he went out and came in before them. |
|

| 17And Saul said to David, "Behold, my elder daughter, Merab. I shall give her to you as a wife. But, be a warrior for me, and wage the wars of the Lord." For Saul said, "Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him." |

|

|
| Let not my hand be upon him. lest I be punished. |
|
אל תהי ידי בו.

|
| but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.. Therefore, he said to him, ‘…and wage the wars of the Lord.’ |
|
ותהי בו יד פלשתים.
לכך אמר לו והלחם מלחמות ה':
|
| 18And David said to Saul, "Who am I, and what is my life, or my fathers family in Israel, that I should be a son-in-law to the King." |
|
יחוַיֹּ֨אמֶר דָּוִ֜ד אֶל־שָׁא֗וּל מִ֚י אָֽנֹכִי֙ וּמִ֣י חַיַּ֔י מִשְׁפַּ֥חַת אָבִ֖י בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל כִּֽי־אֶהְיֶ֥ה חָתָ֖ן לַמֶּֽלֶךְ: |
| 19And it was at the time that Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel, the Meholathite, as a wife. |
|
יטוַיְהִ֗י בְּעֵ֥ת תֵּ֛ת אֶת־מֵרַ֥ב בַּת־שָׁא֖וּל לְדָוִ֑ד וְהִ֧יא נִתְּנָ֛ה לְעַדְרִיאֵ֥ל הַמְּחֹלָתִ֖י לְאִשָּֽׁה: |
| at the time that Merab, Saul’s daughter, should have been given. When the time which they had set to give her to him arrived, and while they were occupied with giving her to him, the matter turned out that she was given to Adriel. |
|
בעת תת.
כשהגיע זמן שקבעו לתתה לו, ובעוד שהיו מתעסקים לתתה לו, נתגלגל הדבר ונתנה לעדריאל:
|
| 20And Michal, Saul's daughter, loved David; and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him. |
|
כוַתֶּאֱהַ֛ב מִיכַ֥ל בַּת־שָׁא֖וּל אֶת־דָּוִ֑ד וַיַּגִּ֣דוּ לְשָׁא֔וּל וַיִּשַׁ֥ר הַדָּבָ֖ר בְּעֵינָֽיו: |
| 21And Saul said, "I shall give her to him, and she will be a snare to him, and the hand of the Philistines will be upon him." And Saul said to David, "With (one of) two, shall you be my son-in-law today." |
|
כאוַיֹּ֨אמֶר שָׁא֜וּל אֶתְּנֶ֚נָּה לּוֹ֙ וּתְהִי־ל֣וֹ לְמוֹקֵ֔שׁ וּתְהִי־ב֖וֹ יַד־פְּלִשְׁתִּ֑ים וַיֹּ֚אמֶר שָׁאוּל֙ אֶל־דָּוִ֔ד בִּשְׁתַּ֛יִם תִּתְחַתֵּ֥ן בִּ֖י הַיּֽוֹם: |
| With two, shall you become my son-in-law. I have two daughters. Through one of them, will you become my son-in-law. And so did Jonathan render: with one of two. Similar to this, (we find:) Three things I cast upon you (II Sam. 24:12), meaning, one of three things. As it is explained there, “Choose for yourself one of them.” |
|
בשתים תתחתן בי.
שתי בנות יש לי, באחת מהן תתחתן בי וכן תרגם יונתן: בחדא מתרין. כיוצא בו (שמואל-ב כד יב): שלש אנכי נוטל עליך. אחת משלש, כמו שמפורש שם: בחר לך אחת מהם:
|
| 22And Saul commanded his servants, "Speak to David secretly, saying, 'Behold, the king desires you, and all his servants love you; and now, become the king's son-in-law.' " |
|
כבוַיְצַ֨ו שָׁא֜וּל אֶת־עֲבָדָּ֗ו דַּבְּר֨וּ אֶל־דָּוִ֚ד בַּלָּט֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר הִנֵּ֨ה חָפֵ֚ץ בְּךָ֙ הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ וְכָל־עֲבָדָ֖יו אֲהֵב֑וּךָ וְעַתָּ֖ה הִתְחַתֵּ֥ן בַּמֶּֽלֶךְ: |
| 23And Saul's servants spoke these words in David's ears. And David said, "Does becoming the king's son-in-law, seem to you to be a light thing, for I am poor and lightly esteemed?" |
|
כגוַֽיְדַבְּר֞וּ עַבְדֵ֚י שָׁאוּל֙ בְּאָזְנֵ֣י דָוִ֔ד אֶת־הַדְּבָרִ֖ים הָאֵ֑לֶּה וַיֹּ֣אמֶר דָּוִ֗ד הַֽנְקַלָּ֚ה בְעֵֽינֵיכֶם֙ הִתְחַתֵּ֣ן בַּמֶּ֔לֶךְ וְאָנֹכִ֖י אִֽישׁ־רָ֥שׁ וְנִקְלֶֽה: |

|
כדוַיַּגִּ֜דוּ עַבְדֵ֥י שָׁא֛וּל ל֖וֹ לֵאמֹ֑ר כַּדְּבָרִ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה דִּבֶּ֥ר דָּוִֽד: |
| 25And Saul said, "So shall you say to David, 'The king has no desire in a dowry, but in one hundred foreskins of Philistines, to avenge himself upon the king's enemies.' " But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines. |
|

| and the days had not expired. He did not wait until the expiration of the days which he had set for him to bring the hundred foreskins. |
|
ולא מלאו הימים.
לא המתין עד מלאת הימים שקבע לו להביא את מאה הערלות:
|
| 27And David arose, and he and his men went, and he slew two hundred men of the Philistines, and brought their foreskins, and they delivered them in full to the king, in order to become the king's son-in-law. And the king gave him Michal, his daughter, as a wife. |
