| וי֖קם ויל֑ך ויהונת֖ן ב֥א העֽיר׃ | 1Sam : |
| ויב֤א דוד֙ נ֔בה אל־אחימ֖לך הכה֑ן ויחר֨ד אחימ֜לך לקר֣את דו֗ד וי֤אמר לו֙ מד֤וע אתה֙ לבד֔ך וא֖יש א֥ין אתֽך׃ | 1Sam 21:2 [KJV 21:1] Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and Ahimelech was afraid at the meeting of David, and said unto him, Why art thou alone, and no man with thee? |
| וי֨אמר דו֜ד לאחימ֣לך הכה֗ן המלך֘ צו֣ני דבר֒ וי֣אמר אל֗י א֣יש אל־י֧דע מא֛ומה את־הדב֛ר אשר־אנכ֥י שלֽחך֖ ואש֣ר צוית֑ך ואת־הנער֣ים יוד֔עתי אל־מק֥ום פלנ֖י אלמונֽי׃ | 1Sam 21:3 [KJV 21:2] And David said unto Ahimelech the priest, The king hath commanded me a business, and hath said unto me, Let no man know any thing of the business whereabout I send thee, and what I have commanded thee: and I have appointed my servants to such and such a place. |
| ועת֗ה מה־י֧ש תֽחת־ידך֛ חמשה־ל֖חם תנ֣ה ביד֑י א֖ו הנמצֽא׃ | 1Sam 21:4 [KJV 21:3] Now therefore what is under thine hand? give me five loaves of bread in mine hand, or what there is present. |
| וי֨ען הכה֤ן את־דוד֙ וי֔אמר אֽין־ל֥חם ח֖ל אל־ת֣חת יד֑י כֽי־אם־ל֤חם ק֙דש֙ י֔ש אם־נשמר֥ו הנער֖ים א֥ך מאשֽה׃ | 1Sam 21:5 [KJV 21:4] And the priest answered David, and said, There is no common bread under mine hand, but there is hallowed bread; if the young men have kept themselves at least from women. |
| ויען֩ דו֨ד את־הכה֜ן וי֣אמר ל֗ו כ֣י אם־אש֤ה עצֽרה־ל֙נו֙ כתמ֣ול שלש֔ם בצאת֕י ויהי֥ו כלֽי־הנער֖ים ק֑דש והוא֙ ד֣רך ח֔ל וא֕ף כ֥י הי֖ום יקד֥ש בכֽלי׃ | 1Sam 21:6 [KJV 21:5] And David answered the priest, and said unto him, Of a truth women have been kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and the bread is in a manner common, yea, though it were sanctified this day in the vessel. |
| ויתן־ל֥ו הכה֖ן ק֑דש כי֩ לא־ה֨יה ש֜ם ל֗חם כֽי־אם־ל֤חם הפנים֙ המֽוסרים֙ מלפנ֣י יהו֔ה לשום֙ ל֣חם ח֔ם בי֖ום הלקחֽו׃ | 1Sam 21:7 [KJV 21:6] So the priest gave him hallowed bread: for there was no bread there but the shewbread, that was taken from before the LORD, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away. |
| וש֡ם איש֩ מעבד֨י שא֜ול בי֣ום הה֗וא נעצר֙ לפנ֣י יהו֔ה ושמ֖ו דא֣ג האדמ֑י אב֥יר הרע֖ים אש֥ר לשאֽול׃ | 1Sam 21:8 [KJV 21:7] Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before the LORD; and his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the chiefest of the herdmen that belonged to Saul. |
| וי֤אמר דוד֙ לאחימ֔לך וא֛ין יש־פ֥ה תֽחת־ידך֖ חנ֣ית או־ח֑רב כ֣י גם־חרב֤י וגם־כלי֙ לֽא־לק֣חתי ביד֔י כֽי־הי֥ה דבר־המ֖לך נחֽוץ׃ | 1Sam 21:9 [KJV 21:8] And David said unto Ahimelech, And is there not here under thine hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste. |
| וי֣אמר הכה֗ן חרב֩ גלי֨ת הפלשת֜י אשר־הכ֣ית׀ בע֣מק האל֗ה הנה־ה֞יא לוט֣ה בשמלה֘ אחר֣י האפוד֒ אם־את֤ה תֽקח־לך֙ ק֔ח כ֣י א֥ין אח֛רת זולת֖ה בז֑ה וי֧אמר דו֛ד א֥ין כמ֖וה תנ֥נה לֽי׃ | 1Sam 21:10 [KJV 21:9] And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take it: for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that; give it me. |
| וי֣קם דו֔ד ויבר֥ח ביום־הה֖וא מפנ֣י שא֑ול ויב֕א אל־אכ֖יש מ֥לך גֽת׃ | 1Sam 21:11 [KJV 21:10] And David arose and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath. |
| וי֨אמר֜ו עבד֤י אכיש֙ אל֔יו הלוא־ז֥ה דו֖ד מ֣לך הא֑רץ הל֣וא לז֗ה יענ֤ו במחלות֙ לאמ֔ר הכ֤ה שאול֙ באלפ֔יו ודו֖ד ברבבתֽיו׃ | 1Sam 21:12 [KJV 21:11] And the servants of Achish said unto him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands? |
| וי֧שם דו֛ד את־הדבר֥ים הא֖לה בלבב֑ו ויר֣א מא֔ד מפנ֖י אכ֥יש מֽלך־גֽת׃ | 1Sam 21:13 [KJV 21:12] And David laid up these words in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath. |
| וישנ֤ו את־טעמו֙ בע֣יניה֔ם ויתהל֖ל ביד֑ם ויתיו֙ על־דלת֣ות הש֔ער וי֥ורד ריר֖ו אל־זקנֽו׃ | 1Sam 21:14 [KJV 21:13] And he changed his behaviour before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down upon his beard. |
| וי֥אמר אכ֖יש אל־עבד֑יו הנ֤ה תראו֙ א֣יש משתג֔ע ל֛מה תב֥יאו את֖ו אלֽי׃ | 1Sam 21:15 [KJV 21:14] Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see the man is mad: wherefore then have ye brought him to me? |
| חס֤ר משגעים֙ א֔ני כי־הבאת֣ם את־ז֔ה להשתג֖ע על֑י הז֖ה יב֥וא אל־ביתֽי׃ | 1Sam 21:16 [KJV 21:15] Have I need of mad men, that ye have brought this fellow to play the mad man in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house? |
