1 Самуїла 18

  • 1
    Saul Becomes Jealous of David

    After David had finished talking with Saul, he met Jonathan, the king’s son. There was an immediate bond between them, for Jonathan loved David.
  • 1
    6 Назустріч Давидові з усіх міст Ізраїля вийшли танцюристки з тимпанами, з радістю і з гуслами,
  • 2
    From that day on Saul kept David with him and wouldn’t let him return home.
  • 2
    7 і жінки почали. Вони виголошували: Саул побив свої тисячі, а Давид свої десятки тисяч!
  • 3
    And Jonathan made a solemn pact with David, because he loved him as he loved himself.
  • 3
    8 І поганою видалася ця справа в очах Саула через ці слова, і він сказав: Давидові дали десятки тисяч, а мені дали лише тисячі!
  • 4
    Jonathan sealed the pact by taking off his robe and giving it to David, together with his tunic, sword, bow, and belt.
  • 4
    9 І від того дня й надалі Саул почав косо дивитися на Давида.
  • 5
    Whatever Saul asked David to do, David did it successfully. So Saul made him a commander over the men of war, an appointment that was welcomed by the people and Saul’s officers alike.
  • 6
    When the victorious Israelite army was returning home after David had killed the Philistine, women from all the towns of Israel came out to meet King Saul. They sang and danced for joy with tambourines and cymbals.a
  • 7
    This was their song:
    “Saul has killed his thousands,
    and David his ten thousands!”
  • 7
    12 У Саула появився страх перед Давидом,
  • 8
    This made Saul very angry. “What’s this?” he said. “They credit David with ten thousands and me with only thousands. Next they’ll be making him their king!”
  • 8
    13 і він відсторонив його від себе, і поставив його собі тисяцьким, і той виходив і входив перед народом.
  • 9
    So from that time on Saul kept a jealous eye on David.
  • 9
    14 Давид був розумним в усіх своїх дорогах, і Господь був з ним.
  • 10
    The very next day a tormenting spiritb from God overwhelmed Saul, and he began to rave in his house like a madman. David was playing the harp, as he did each day. But Saul had a spear in his hand,
  • 10
    15 І побачив Саул, що він дуже розумний, і остерігався його присутності.
  • 11
    and he suddenly hurled it at David, intending to pin him to the wall. But David escaped him twice.
  • 11
    16 А весь Ізраїль та Юда полюбили Давида, бо він виходив і входив перед народом.
  • 12
    Saul was then afraid of David, for the LORD was with David and had turned away from Saul.
  • 13
    Finally, Saul sent him away and appointed him commander over 1,000 men, and David faithfully led his troops into battle.
  • 14
    David continued to succeed in everything he did, for the LORD was with him.
  • 15
    When Saul recognized this, he became even more afraid of him.
  • 15
    20 І сталося, що Мелхола, дочка Саула, полюбила Давида, і сповістили Саулові, і це було угодним в його очах.
  • 16
    But all Israel and Judah loved David because he was so successful at leading his troops into battle.
  • 16
    21 І сказав Саул: Дам її йому, і буде йому на спотикання. На Саулові була рука филистимців.

    David Marries Saul’s Daughter

    One day Saul said to David, “I am ready to give you my older daughter, Merab, as your wife. But first you must prove yourself to be a real warrior by fighting the LORD’s battles.” For Saul thought, “I’ll send him out against the Philistines and let them kill him rather than doing it myself.”
  • 17
    22 Саул дав вказівку всім своїм, кажучи: Ви таємно заговоріть з Давидом, кажучи: Ось цар до тебе прихильний, і всі його слуги тебе люблять, тож ти стань зятем царя!
  • 18
    “Who am I, and what is my family in Israel that I should be the king’s son-in-law?” David exclaimed. “My father’s family is nothing!”
  • 18
    23 І слуги Саула промовили ці слова до вух Давида, та Давид сказав: Хіба у ваших очах це легка справа стати зятем царя? Я ж — чоловік нешляхетного роду і не славний.
  • 19
    Soc when the time came for Saul to give his daughter Merab in marriage to David, he gave her instead to Adriel, a man from Meholah.
  • 19
    24 А слуги Саула сповістили йому згідно із цими словами, які сказав Давид.
  • 20
    In the meantime, Saul’s daughter Michal had fallen in love with David, and Saul was delighted when he heard about it.
  • 20
    25 Саул же сказав: Так перекажете Давидові: Цар не бажає дару, але хіба сто крайніх плотей филистимців, щоб помститися на ворогах царя! Саул думав таким чином віддати його в руки филистимців.
  • 21
    “Here’s another chance to see him killed by the Philistines!” Saul said to himself. But to David he said, “Today you have a second chance to become my son-in-law!”
  • 21
    26 І слуги Саула сповіщають ці слова Давидові, і справа була угодною в очах Давида, щоб стати зятем царя.
  • 22
    Then Saul told his men to say to David, “The king really likes you, and so do we. Why don’t you accept the king’s offer and become his son-in-law?”
  • 22
    27 І Давид піднявся, і він та його мужі пішли і побили сто мужів з филистимців, і він приніс їхні крайні плоті цареві й став зятем царя, і йому дали дочку Мелхолу — йому за жінку.
  • 23
    When Saul’s men said these things to David, he replied, “How can a poor man from a humble family afford the bride price for the daughter of a king?”
  • 23
    28 І побачив Саул, що Господь з Давидом, і весь Ізраїль полюбив його,
  • 24
    When Saul’s men reported this back to the king,
  • 24
    29 і продовжував косо дивитися на Давида.
