1ΚΑΙ ἀπῆλθεν ἐκεῖθεν Δαυὶδ καὶ διεσώθη καὶ ἔρχεται εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον τὸ Ὀδολλάμ. καὶ ἀκούουσιν οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ ὁ οἶκος τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ καταβαίνουσι πρὸς αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ.
1David therefore went from thence and fled to the cave of Odollam. And when his brethren, and all his father’s house had heard of it, they went down to him thither;
2καὶ συνήγοντο πρὸς αὐτὸν πᾶς ἐν ἀνάγκῃ καὶ πᾶς ὑπόχρεως καὶ πᾶς κατώδυνος ψυχῇ, καὶ ἦν ἐπ᾿ αὐτῶν ἡγούμενος· καὶ ἦσαν μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ ὡς τετρακόσιοι ἄνδρες.
2And all that were in distress and oppressed with debt, and under affliction of mind gathered themselves unto him: and he became their prince, and there were with him about four hundred men.
3καὶ ἀπῆλθε Δαυὶδ ἐκεῖθεν εἰς Μασσηφὰθ τῆς Μωὰβ καὶ εἶπε πρὸς βασιλέα Μωάβ· γινέσθωσαν δὴ ὁ πατὴρ μου καὶ ἡ μήτηρ μου παρὰ σοί, ἕως ὅτου γνῶ τί ποιήσει μοι ὁ Θεός.
3And David departed from thence into Maspha of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab: Let my father and my mother tarry with you, I beseech thee, till I know what God will do for me.
4καὶ παρεκάλεσε τὸ πρόσωπον τοῦ βασιλέως Μωάβ, καὶ κατῴκουν μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ὄντος τοῦ Δαυὶδ ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ.
4And he left them under the eyes of the king of Moab, and they abode with him all the days that David was in the hold.
5καὶ εἶπε Γὰδ ὁ προφήτης πρὸς Δαυίδ· μὴ κάθου ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ, πορεύου καὶ ἥξεις εἰς γῆν Ἰούδα. καὶ ἐπορεύθη Δαυὶδ καὶ ἦλθε καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἐν πόλει Σαρίχ.
5And Gad the prophet said to David: Abide not in the hold, depart, and go into the land of Juda. And David departed, and came into the forest of Haret.
6Καὶ ἤκουσε Σαούλ, ὅτι ἔγνωσται Δαυὶδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ· καὶ Σαοὺλ ἐκάθητο ἐν τῷ βουνῷ ὑπὸ τὴν ἄρουραν τὴν ἐν Ραμά, καὶ τὸ δόρυ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάντες οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ παρειστήκεισαν αὐτῷ.
6And Saul heard that David was seen, and the men that were with him. Now whilst Saul abode in Gabaa, and was in the wood, which is by Rama, having his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him,
7καὶ εἶπε Σαοὺλ πρὸς τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ τοὺς παρεστηκότας αὐτῷ· ἀκούσατε δὴ υἱοὶ Βενιαμίν· εἰ ἀληθῶς πᾶσιν ὑμῖν δώσει ὁ υἱὸς Ἰεσσαὶ ἀγροὺς καὶ ἀμπελῶνας καὶ πάντας ὑμᾶς τάξει ἑκατοντάρχους καὶ χιλιάρχους;
7He said to his servants that stood about him: Hear me now, ye sons of Jemini: will the son of Isai give everyone of you fields, and vineyards, and make you all tribunes, and centurions:
8ὅτι σύγκεισθε πάντες ὑμεῖς ἐπ᾿ ἐμέ, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ ἀποκαλύπτων τὸ ὠτίον μου ἐν τῷ διαθέσθαι τὸν υἱόν μου διαθήκην μετὰ τοῦ υἱοῦ Ἰεσσαί, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι πονῶν περὶ ἐμοῦ ἐξ ὑμῶν καὶ ἀποκαλύπτων τὸ ὠτίον μου, ὅτι ἐπήγειρεν ὁ υἱός μου τὸν δοῦλόν μου ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ εἰς ἐχθρόν, ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη.
8That all of you have conspired against me, and there is no one to inform me, especially when even my son hath entered into league with the soil of Isai? There is not one of you that pitieth my case, nor that giveth me any information: because my son hath raised up my servant against me, plotting against me to this day.
9καὶ ἀποκρίνεται Δωὴκ ὁ Σύρος ὁ καθεστηκὼς ἐπὶ τὰς ἡμιόνους Σαοὺλ καὶ εἶπεν· ἑώρακα τὸν υἱὸν Ἰεσσαὶ παραγινόμενον εἰς Νομβὰ πρὸς Ἀβιμέλεχ υἱὸν Ἀχιτὼβ τὸν ἱερέα,
9And Doeg the Edomite who stood by, and was the chief among the servants of Saul, answering, said: I saw the son of Isai, in Nobe with Achimelech the son of Achitob the priest.
10καὶ ἠρώτα αὐτῷ διά τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ ἐπισιτισμὸν ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ καὶ τὴν ρομφαίαν Γολιὰθ τοῦ ἀλλοφύλου ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ.
10And he consulted the Lord for him, and gave him victuals, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.
11καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς καλέσαι τὸν Ἀβιμέλεχ υἱὸν Ἀχιτὼβ καὶ πάντας τοὺς υἱοὺς τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ τοὺς ἱερεῖς τοὺς ἐν Νομβά, καὶ παρεγένοντο πάντες πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα.
11Then the king sent to call for Achimelech the priest the son of Achitob, and all his father’s house, the priests that were in Nobe, and they came all of them to the king.
12καὶ εἶπε Σαούλ· ἄκουε δή, υἱὲ Ἀχιτώβ· καὶ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ ἐγώ, λάλει κύριε.
12And Saul said to Achimelech: Hear, thou son of Achitob. He answered: Here I am, my lord.
13καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Σαούλ· ἱνατί συνέθου κατ᾿ ἐμοῦ σὺ καὶ ὁ υἱὸς Ἰεσσαὶ δοῦναί σε αὐτῷ ἄρτον καὶ ρομφαίαν καὶ ἐρωτᾶν αὐτῷ διὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ θέσθαι αὐτὸν ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ εἰς ἐχθρόν, ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη;
13And Saul said to him: Why have you conspired against me, thou, and the son of Isai, and thou hast given him bread and a sword, and hast consulted the Lord for him, that he should rise up against me, continuing a traitor to this day.
14καὶ ἀπεκρίθη τῷ βασιλεῖ καὶ εἶπε· καὶ τίς ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς δούλοις σου ὡς Δαυὶδ πιστὸς καὶ γαμβρὸς τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἄρχων παντὸς παραγγέλματός σου καὶ ἔνδοξος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ σου;
14And Achimelech answering the king, said: And who amongst all thy servants is so faithful as David, who is the king’s son in law, and goeth forth at thy bidding, and is honourable in thy house?
15ἦ σήμερον ἦργμαι ἐρωτᾶν αὐτῷ διὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ; μηδαμῶς. μὴ δότω ὁ βασιλεὺς κατὰ τοῦ δούλου αὐτοῦ λόγον καὶ ἐφ᾿ ὅλον τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρός μου, ὅτι οὐκ ᾔδει ὁ δοῦλός σου ἐν πᾶσι τούτοις ρῆμα μικρὸν ἢ μέγα.
15Did I begin today to consult the Lord for him? far be this from me: let not the king suspect such a thing against his servant, or any one in all my father’s house: for thy servant knew nothing of this matter, either little or great.
16καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Σαούλ· θανάτῳ ἀποθανῇ, Ἀβιμέλεχ, σὺ καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἶκος τοῦ πατρός σου.
16And the king said: Dying thou shalt die, Achimelech, thou and all thy father’s house.
17καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τοῖς παρατρέχουσι τοῖς ἐφεστηκόσι πρὸς αὐτόν· προσαγάγετε καὶ θανατοῦτε τοὺς ἱερεῖς τοῦ Κυρίου, ὅτι ἡ χεὶρ αὐτῶν μετὰ Δαυίδ, καὶ ὅτι ἔγνωσαν ὅτι φεύγει αὐτός, καὶ οὐκ ἀπεκάλυψαν τὸ ὠτίον μου. καὶ οὐκ ἐβουλήθησαν οἱ παῖδες τοῦ βασιλέως ἐπενεγκεῖν τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν ἀπαντῆσαι εἰς τοὺς ἱερεῖς Κυρίου.
17And the king said to the messengers that stood about him: Turn, and kill the priests of the Lord, for their hand is with David, because they knew that he was fled, and they told it not to me. And the king’s servants would not put forth their hands against the priests of the Lord.
18καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τῷ Δωήκ· ἐπιστρέφου σὺ καὶ ἀπάντα εἰς τοὺς ἱερεῖς. καὶ ἐπεστράφη Δωὴκ ὁ Σύρος καὶ ἐθανάτωσε τοὺς ἱερεῖς τοῦ Κυρίου ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, τριακοσίους καὶ πέντε ἄνδρας, πάντας αἴροντας ἐφούδ.
18And the king said to Doeg: Turn thou, and fall upon the priests. And Doeg the Edomite turned, and fell upon the priests and slew in that day eighty-five men that wore the linen ephod.
19καὶ τὴν Νομβὰ τὴν πόλιν τῶν ἱερέων ἐπάταξεν ἐν στόματι ρομφαίας ἀπ᾿ ἀνδρὸς ἕως γυναικός, ἀπὸ νηπίου ἕως θηλάζοντος καὶ μόσχου καὶ ὄνου καὶ προβάτου.
19And Nobe the city of the priests he smote with the edge of his sword, both men and women, children, and sucklings, and ox and ass, and sheep with the edge of the sword.
20καὶ διασώζεται υἱὸς εἷς τῷ Ἀβιμέλεχ υἱῷ Ἀχιτώβ, καὶ ὄνομα αὐτῷ Ἀβιάθαρ, καὶ ἔφυγεν ὀπίσω Δαυίδ.
20But one of the sons of Achimelech the son of Achitob, whose name was Abiathar, escaped, and fled to David,
21καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν Ἀβιάθαρ τῷ Δαυίδ, ὅτι ἐθανάτωσε Σαοὺλ πάντας τοὺς ἱερεῖς τοῦ Κυρίου.
21And told him that Saul had slain the priests of the Lord.
22καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ τῷ Ἀβιάθαρ· ᾔδειν ὅτι ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ὅτι Δωὴκ ὁ Σύρος ὅτι ἀπαγγέλλων ἀπαγγελεῖ τῷ Σαούλ· ἐγώ εἰμι αἴτιος τῶν ψυχῶν οἴκου τοῦ πατρός σου·
22And David said to Abiathar: I knew that day when Doeg the Edomite was there, that without doubt he would tell Saul: I have been the occasion of the death of all the souls of thy father’s house.
23κάθου μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ, μὴ φοβοῦ, ὅτι οὗ ἐὰν ζητῶ τῇ ψυχῇ μου τόπον, ζητήσω καὶ τῇ ψυχῇ σου, ὅτι πεφύλαξαι σὺ παρ᾿ ἐμοί.
23Abide thou with me, fear not: for he that seeketh my life, seeketh thy life also, and with me thou shalt be saved.
