The Bible In One Year Bible Reading For Day Number - 106 First
Samuel -- 19{1}
And Saul spake to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should
kill David. {2} But Jonathan Saul's son delighted much in David: and
Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee: now therefore,
I pray thee, take heed to thyself until the morning, and abide in a secret place,
and hide thyself: {3} And I will go out and stand beside my father
in the field where thou art, and I will commune with my father of thee; and what
I see, that I will tell thee. {4} And Jonathan spake good of David
unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant,
against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works
have been to theeward very good: {5} For he did put his life in his
hand, and slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all
Israel: thou sawest it, and didst rejoice: wherefore then wilt thou sin against
innocent blood, to slay David without a cause? {6} And Saul hearkened
unto the voice of Jonathan: and Saul sware, As the LORD liveth, he shall not be
slain. {7} And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan shewed him all those
things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in
times past. {8} And there was war again: and David went out, and fought
with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and they fled from
him. {9} And the evil spirit from the LORD was upon Saul, as he sat
in his house with his javelin in his hand: and David played with his hand.
{10} And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the javelin;
but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, and he smote the javelin into the
wall: and David fled, and escaped that night. {11} Saul also sent messengers
unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal David's
wife told him, saying, If thou save not thy life to night, to morrow thou shalt
be slain. {12} So Michal let David down through a window: and he went,
and fled, and escaped. {13} And Michal took an image, and laid it in
the bed, and put a pillow of goats' hair for his bolster, and covered it with
a cloth. {14} And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said,
He is sick. {15} And Saul sent the messengers again to see David, saying,
Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may slay him. {16} And when the
messengers were come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow
of goats' hair for his bolster. {17} And Saul said unto Michal, Why
hast thou deceived me so, and sent away mine enemy, that he is escaped? And Michal
answered Saul, He said unto me, Let me go; why should I kill thee? {18}
So David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that
Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth. {19}
And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah. {20}
And Saul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets
prophesying, and Samuel standing as appointed over them, the Spirit of God was
upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied. {21} And when
it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. And
Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also. {22}
Then went he also to Ramah, and came to a great well that is in Sechu: and he
asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, Behold, they be at Naioth
in Ramah. {23} And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah: and the Spirit
of God was upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth
in Ramah. {24} And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied
before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night.
Wherefore they say, Is Saul also among the prophets? First
Samuel -- 20{1}
And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have
I done? what is mine iniquity? and what is my sin before thy father, that he seeketh
my life? {2} And he said unto him, God forbid; thou shalt not die:
behold, my father will do nothing either great or small, but that he will shew
it me: and why should my father hide this thing from me? it is not so. {3}
And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found
grace in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved:
but truly as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between
me and death. {4} Then said Jonathan unto David, Whatsoever thy soul
desireth, I will even do it for thee. {5} And David said unto Jonathan,
Behold, to morrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king
at meat: but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field unto the third day
at even. {6} If thy father at all miss me, then say, David earnestly
asked leave of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city: for there is a yearly
sacrifice there for all the family. {7} If he say thus, It is well;
thy servant shall have peace: but if he be very wroth, then be sure that evil
is determined by him. {8} Therefore thou shalt deal kindly with thy
servant; for thou hast brought thy servant into a covenant of the LORD with thee:
notwithstanding, if there be in me iniquity, slay me thyself; for why shouldest
thou bring me to thy father? {9} And Jonathan said, Far be it from
thee: for if I knew certainly that evil were determined by my father to come upon
thee, then would not I tell it thee? {10} Then said David to Jonathan,
Who shall tell me? or what if thy father answer thee roughly? {11}
And Jonathan said unto David, Come, and let us go out into the field. And they
went out both of them into the field. {12} And Jonathan said unto David,
O LORD God of Israel, when I have sounded my father about to morrow any time,
or the third day, and, behold, if there be good toward David, and I then send
not unto thee, and shew it thee; {13} The LORD do so and much more
to Jonathan: but if it please my father to do thee evil, then I will shew it thee,
and send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace: and the LORD be with thee, as
he hath been with my father. {14} And thou shalt not only while yet
I live shew me the kindness of the LORD, that I die not: {15} But also
thou shalt not cut off thy kindness from my house for ever: no, not when the LORD
hath cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth. {16}
So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, Let the LORD even
require it at the hand of David's enemies. {17} And Jonathan caused
David to swear again, because he loved him: for he loved him as he loved his own
soul. {18} Then Jonathan said to David, To morrow is the new moon:
and thou shalt be missed, because thy seat will be empty. {19} And
when thou hast stayed three days, then thou shalt go down quickly, and come to
the place where thou didst hide thyself when the business was in hand, and shalt
remain by the stone Ezel. {20} And I will shoot three arrows on the
side thereof, as though I shot at a mark. {21} And, behold, I will
send a lad, saying, Go, find out the arrows. If I expressly say unto the lad,
Behold, the arrows are on this side of thee, take them; then come thou: for there
is peace to thee, and no hurt; as the LORD liveth. {22} But if I say
thus unto the young man, Behold, the arrows are beyond thee; go thy way: for the
LORD hath sent thee away. {23} And as touching the matter which thou
and I have spoken of, behold, the LORD be between thee and me for ever. {24}
So David hid himself in the field: and when the new moon was come, the king sat
him down to eat meat. {25} And the king sat upon his seat, as at other
times, even upon a seat by the wall: and Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's
side, and David's place was empty. {26} Nevertheless Saul spake not
any thing that day: for he thought, Something hath befallen him, he is not clean;
surely he is not clean. {27} And it came to pass on the morrow, which
was the second day of the month, that David's place was empty: and Saul said unto
Jonathan his son, Wherefore cometh not the son of Jesse to meat, neither yesterday,
nor to day? {28} And Jonathan answered Saul, David earnestly asked
leave of me to go to Bethlehem: {29} And he said, Let me go, I pray
thee; for our family hath a sacrifice in the city; and my brother, he hath commanded
me to be there: and now, if I have found favour in thine eyes, let me get away,
I pray thee, and see my brethren. Therefore he cometh not unto the king's table.
{30} Then Saul's anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said unto him,
Thou son of the perverse rebellious woman, do not I know that thou hast chosen
the son of Jesse to thine own confusion, and unto the confusion of thy mother's
nakedness? {31} For as long as the son of Jesse liveth upon the ground,
thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Wherefore now send and fetch him
unto me, for he shall surely die. {32} And Jonathan answered Saul his
father, and said unto him, Wherefore shall he be slain? what hath he done?
{33} And Saul cast a javelin at him to smite him: whereby Jonathan knew
that it was determined of his father to slay David. {34} So Jonathan
arose from the table in fierce anger, and did eat no meat the second day of the
month: for he was grieved for David, because his father had done him shame.
{35} And it came to pass in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the
field at the time appointed with David, and a little lad with him. {36}
And he said unto his lad, Run, find out now the arrows which I shoot. And as the
lad ran, he shot an arrow beyond him. {37} And when the lad was come
to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the lad,
and said, Is not the arrow beyond thee? {38} And Jonathan cried after
the lad, Make speed, haste, stay not. And Jonathan's lad gathered up the arrows,
and came to his master. {39} But the lad knew not any thing: only Jonathan
and David knew the matter. {40} And Jonathan gave his artillery unto
his lad, and said unto him, Go, carry them to the city. {41} And as
soon as the lad was gone, David arose out of a place toward the south, and fell
on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times: and they kissed one
another, and wept one with another, until David exceeded. {42} And
Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, forasmuch as we have sworn both of us in
the name of the LORD, saying, The LORD be between me and thee, and between my
seed and thy seed for ever. And he arose and departed: and Jonathan went into
the city. First
Samuel -- 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?
{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. {3} Now therefore what is under thine hand?
give me five loaves of bread in mine hand, or what there is present. {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. {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. {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.
{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. {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. {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. {10} And David arose, and
fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath. {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? {12} And David laid up these
words in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath. {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. {14} Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see the man
is mad: wherefore then have ye brought him to me? {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? |  |
