| א וַיְהִי הַיּוֹם, וַיֹּאמֶר יוֹנָתָן בֶּן-שָׁאוּל אֶל-הַנַּעַר נֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו, לְכָה וְנַעְבְּרָה אֶל-מַצַּב פְּלִשְׁתִּים, אֲשֶׁר מֵעֵבֶר הַלָּז; וּלְאָבִיו, לֹא הִגִּיד. | 1 Now it fell upon a day, that Jonathan the son of Saul said unto the young man that bore his armour: 'Come and let us go over to the Philistines' garrison, that is on yonder side. But he told not his father. |
| ב וְשָׁאוּל, יוֹשֵׁב בִּקְצֵה הַגִּבְעָה, תַּחַת הָרִמּוֹן, אֲשֶׁר בְּמִגְרוֹן; וְהָעָם אֲשֶׁר עִמּוֹ, כְּשֵׁשׁ מֵאוֹת אִישׁ. | 2 And Saul tarried in the uttermost part of Gibeah under the pomegranate-tree which is in Migron; and the people that were with him were about six hundred men, |
| ג וַאֲחִיָּה בֶן-אֲחִטוּב אֲחִי אִיכָבוֹד בֶּן-פִּינְחָס בֶּן-עֵלִי כֹּהֵן יְהוָה, בְּשִׁלוֹ--נֹשֵׂא אֵפוֹד; וְהָעָם לֹא יָדַע, כִּי הָלַךְ יוֹנָתָן. | 3 and Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the priest of the LORD in Shiloh, wearing an ephod. And the people knew not that Jonathan was gone. |
| ד וּבֵין הַמַּעְבְּרוֹת, אֲשֶׁר בִּקֵּשׁ יוֹנָתָן לַעֲבֹר עַל-מַצַּב פְּלִשְׁתִּים--שֵׁן-הַסֶּלַע מֵהָעֵבֶר מִזֶּה, וְשֵׁן-הַסֶּלַע מֵהָעֵבֶר מִזֶּה; וְשֵׁם הָאֶחָד בּוֹצֵץ, וְשֵׁם הָאֶחָד סֶנֶּה. | 4 And between the passes, by which Jonathan sought to go over unto the Philistines' garrison, there was a rocky crag on the one side, and a rocky crag on the other side; and the name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh. |
| ה הַשֵּׁן הָאֶחָד מָצוּק מִצָּפוֹן, מוּל מִכְמָשׂ; וְהָאֶחָד מִנֶּגֶב, מוּל גָּבַע. {ס} | 5 The one crag rose up on the north in front of Michmas, and the other on the south in front of Geba. {S} |
| ו וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוֹנָתָן אֶל-הַנַּעַר נֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו, לְכָה וְנַעְבְּרָה אֶל-מַצַּב הָעֲרֵלִים הָאֵלֶּה--אוּלַי יַעֲשֶׂה יְהוָה, לָנוּ: כִּי אֵין לַיהוָה מַעְצוֹר, לְהוֹשִׁיעַ בְּרַב אוֹ בִמְעָט. | 6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour: 'Come and let us go over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised; it may be that the LORD will work for us; for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few.' |
| ז וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ נֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו, עֲשֵׂה כָּל-אֲשֶׁר בִּלְבָבֶךָ; נְטֵה לָךְ, הִנְנִי עִמְּךָ כִּלְבָבֶךָ. {ס} | 7 And his armour-bearer said unto him: 'Do all that is in thy heart; turn thee, behold I am with thee according to thy heart.' {S} |
| ח וַיֹּאמֶר, יְהוֹנָתָן, הִנֵּה אֲנַחְנוּ עֹבְרִים, אֶל-הָאֲנָשִׁים; וְנִגְלִינוּ, אֲלֵיהֶם. | 8 Then said Jonathan: 'Behold, we will pass over unto the men, and we will disclose ourselves unto them. |
| ט אִם-כֹּה יֹאמְרוּ, אֵלֵינוּ, דֹּמּוּ, עַד-הַגִּיעֵנוּ אֲלֵיכֶם--וְעָמַדְנוּ תַחְתֵּינוּ, וְלֹא נַעֲלֶה אֲלֵיהֶם. | 9 If they say thus unto us: Tarry until we come to you; then we will stand still in our place, and will not go up unto them. |
| י וְאִם-כֹּה יֹאמְרוּ עֲלוּ עָלֵינוּ, וְעָלִינוּ--כִּי-נְתָנָם יְהוָה, בְּיָדֵנוּ: וְזֶה-לָּנוּ, הָאוֹת. | 10 But if they say thus: Come up unto us; then we will go up; for the LORD hath delivered them into our hand; and this shall be the sign unto us.' |
| יא וַיִּגָּלוּ שְׁנֵיהֶם, אֶל-מַצַּב פְּלִשְׁתִּים; וַיֹּאמְרוּ פְלִשְׁתִּים--הִנֵּה עִבְרִים יֹצְאִים, מִן-הַחֹרִים אֲשֶׁר הִתְחַבְּאוּ-שָׁם. | 11 And both of them disclosed themselves unto the garrison of the Philistines; and the Philistines said: 'Behold Hebrews coming forth out of the holes where they hid themselves.' |
|
יב וַיַּעֲנוּ אַנְשֵׁי הַמַּצָּבָה אֶת-יוֹנָתָן וְאֶת-נֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו, וַיֹּאמְרוּ עֲלוּ אֵלֵינוּ, וְנוֹדִיעָה אֶתְכֶם, דָּבָר; {פ} וַיֹּאמֶר יוֹנָתָן אֶל-נֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו, עֲלֵה אַחֲרַי--כִּי-נְתָנָם יְהוָה, בְּיַד יִשְׂרָאֵל. |
12 And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan and his armour-bearer, and said: 'Come up to us, and we will show you a thing.' {P} And Jonathan said unto his armour-bearer: 'Come up after me; for the LORD hath delivered them into the hand of Israel.' |
| יג וַיַּעַל יוֹנָתָן, עַל-יָדָיו וְעַל-רַגְלָיו, וְנֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו, אַחֲרָיו; וַיִּפְּלוּ לִפְנֵי יוֹנָתָן, וְנֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו מְמוֹתֵת אַחֲרָיו. | 13 And Jonathan climbed up upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armour-bearer after him; and they fell before Jonathan; and his armour-bearer slew them after him. |
| יד וַתְּהִי הַמַּכָּה הָרִאשֹׁנָה, אֲשֶׁר הִכָּה יוֹנָתָן וְנֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו--כְּעֶשְׂרִים אִישׁ: כְּבַחֲצִי מַעֲנָה, צֶמֶד שָׂדֶה. | 14 And that first slaughter, which Jonathan and his armour-bearer made, was about twenty men, within as it were half a furrow's length in an acre of land. |
| טו וַתְּהִי חֲרָדָה בַמַּחֲנֶה בַשָּׂדֶה, וּבְכָל-הָעָם--הַמַּצָּב וְהַמַּשְׁחִית, חָרְדוּ גַּם-הֵמָּה; וַתִּרְגַּז הָאָרֶץ, וַתְּהִי לְחֶרְדַּת אֱלֹהִים. | 15 And there was a trembling in the camp in the field, and among all the people; the garrison, and the spoilers, they also trembled; and the earth quaked; so it grew into a terror from God. |
| טז וַיִּרְאוּ הַצֹּפִים לְשָׁאוּל, בְּגִבְעַת בִּנְיָמִן; וְהִנֵּה הֶהָמוֹן נָמוֹג, וַיֵּלֶךְ וַהֲלֹם. {פ} | 16 And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeath-benjamin looked; and, behold, the multitude melted away, and they went hither and thither. {P} |
| יז וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל, לָעָם אֲשֶׁר אִתּוֹ, פִּקְדוּ-נָא וּרְאוּ, מִי הָלַךְ מֵעִמָּנוּ; וַיִּפְקְדוּ, וְהִנֵּה אֵין יוֹנָתָן וְנֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו. | 17 Then said Saul unto the people that were with him: 'Number now, and see who is gone from us.' And when they had numbered, behold, Jonathan and his armour-bearer were not there. |
| יח וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל לַאֲחִיָּה, הַגִּישָׁה אֲרוֹן הָאֱלֹהִים: כִּי-הָיָה אֲרוֹן הָאֱלֹהִים, בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא--וּבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל. | 18 And Saul said unto Ahijah: 'Bring hither the ark of God.' For the ark of God was there at that time with the children of Israel. |
|
יט וַיְהִי, עַד דִּבֶּר שָׁאוּל אֶל-הַכֹּהֵן, וְהֶהָמוֹן אֲשֶׁר בְּמַחֲנֵה פְלִשְׁתִּים, וַיֵּלֶךְ הָלוֹךְ וָרָב; {פ} וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל אֶל-הַכֹּהֵן, אֱסֹף יָדֶךָ. |
19 And it came to pass, while Saul talked unto the priest, that the tumult that was in the camp of the Philistines went on and increased; {P} and Saul said unto the priest: 'Withdraw thy hand.' |
| כ וַיִּזָּעֵק שָׁאוּל, וְכָל-הָעָם אֲשֶׁר אִתּוֹ, וַיָּבֹאוּ, עַד-הַמִּלְחָמָה; וְהִנֵּה הָיְתָה חֶרֶב אִישׁ, בְּרֵעֵהוּ--מְהוּמָה, גְּדוֹלָה מְאֹד. | 20 And Saul and all the people that were with him were gathered together, and came to the battle; and, behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, and there was a very great discomfiture. |
| כא וְהָעִבְרִים, הָיוּ לַפְּלִשְׁתִּים כְּאֶתְמוֹל שִׁלְשׁוֹם, אֲשֶׁר עָלוּ עִמָּם בַּמַּחֲנֶה, סָבִיב; וְגַם-הֵמָּה, לִהְיוֹת עִם-יִשְׂרָאֵל, אֲשֶׁר עִם-שָׁאוּל, וְיוֹנָתָן. | 21 Now the Hebrews that were with the Philistines as beforetime, and that went up with them into the camp round about; even they also turned to be with the Israelites that were with Saul and Jonathan. |
| כב וְכֹל אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל הַמִּתְחַבְּאִים בְּהַר-אֶפְרַיִם, שָׁמְעוּ, כִּי-נָסוּ, פְּלִשְׁתִּים; וַיַּדְבְּקוּ גַם-הֵמָּה אַחֲרֵיהֶם, בַּמִּלְחָמָה. | 22 Likewise all the men of Israel that had hid themselves in the hill-country of Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines fled, even they also followed hard after them in the battle. |
| כג וַיּוֹשַׁע יְהוָה בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא, אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל; וְהַמִּלְחָמָה--עָבְרָה, אֶת-בֵּית אָוֶן. | 23 So the LORD saved Israel that day; and the battle passed on as far as Beth-aven. |
| כד וְאִישׁ-יִשְׂרָאֵל נִגַּשׂ, בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא; וַיֹּאֶל שָׁאוּל אֶת-הָעָם לֵאמֹר, אָרוּר הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר-יֹאכַל לֶחֶם עַד-הָעֶרֶב וְנִקַּמְתִּי מֵאֹיְבַי, וְלֹא-טָעַם כָּל-הָעָם, לָחֶם. {ס} | 24 And the men of Israel were distressed that day; but Saul adjured the people, saying: 'Cursed be the man that eateth any food until it be evening, and I be avenged on mine enemies.' So none of the people tasted food. {S} |
| כה וְכָל-הָאָרֶץ, בָּאוּ בַיָּעַר; וַיְהִי דְבַשׁ, עַל-פְּנֵי הַשָּׂדֶה. | 25 And all the people came into the forest; and there was honey upon the ground. |
| כו וַיָּבֹא הָעָם אֶל-הַיַּעַר, וְהִנֵּה הֵלֶךְ דְּבָשׁ; וְאֵין-מַשִּׂיג יָדוֹ אֶל-פִּיו, כִּי-יָרֵא הָעָם אֶת-הַשְּׁבֻעָה. | 26 And when the people were come unto the forest, behold a flow of honey; but no man put his hand to his mouth; for the people feared the oath. |
| כז וְיוֹנָתָן לֹא-שָׁמַע, בְּהַשְׁבִּיעַ אָבִיו אֶת-הָעָם, וַיִּשְׁלַח אֶת-קְצֵה הַמַּטֶּה אֲשֶׁר בְּיָדוֹ, וַיִּטְבֹּל אוֹתָהּ בְּיַעְרַת הַדְּבָשׁ; וַיָּשֶׁב יָדוֹ אֶל-פִּיו, ותראנה וַתָּאֹרְנָה עֵינָיו. | 27 But Jonathan heard not when his father charged the people with the oath; and he put forth the end of the rod that was in his hand, and dipped it in the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth; and his eyes brightened. |
| כח וַיַּעַן אִישׁ מֵהָעָם וַיֹּאמֶר, הַשְׁבֵּעַ הִשְׁבִּיעַ אָבִיךָ אֶת-הָעָם לֵאמֹר, אָרוּר הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר-יֹאכַל לֶחֶם, הַיּוֹם; וַיָּעַף, הָעָם. | 28 Then answered one of the people, and said: 'Thy father straitly charged the people with an oath, saying: Cursed be the man that eateth food this day; and the people are faint.' |
| כט וַיֹּאמֶר, יוֹנָתָן, עָכַר אָבִי, אֶת-הָאָרֶץ: רְאוּ-נָא, כִּי-אֹרוּ עֵינַי--כִּי טָעַמְתִּי, מְעַט דְּבַשׁ הַזֶּה. | 29 Then said Jonathan: 'My father hath troubled the land; see, I pray you, how mine eyes are brightened, because I tasted a little of this honey. |
| ל אַף, כִּי לוּא אָכֹל אָכַל הַיּוֹם הָעָם, מִשְּׁלַל אֹיְבָיו, אֲשֶׁר מָצָא: כִּי עַתָּה לֹא-רָבְתָה מַכָּה, בַּפְּלִשְׁתִּים. | 30 How much more, if haply the people had eaten freely to-day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? had there not been then a much greater slaughter among the Philistines?' |
| לא וַיַּכּוּ בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא, בַּפְּלִשְׁתִּים, מִמִּכְמָשׂ, אַיָּלֹנָה; וַיָּעַף הָעָם, מְאֹד. | 31 And they smote of the Philistines that day from Michmas to Aijalon; and the people were very faint. |
| לב ויעש וַיַּעַט הָעָם אֶל-שלל הַשָּׁלָל, וַיִּקְחוּ צֹאן וּבָקָר וּבְנֵי בָקָר וַיִּשְׁחֲטוּ-אָרְצָה; וַיֹּאכַל הָעָם, עַל-הַדָּם. | 32 And the people flew upon the spoil, and took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slew them on the ground; and the people did eat them with the blood. |
| לג וַיַּגִּידוּ לְשָׁאוּל לֵאמֹר, הִנֵּה הָעָם חֹטִאים לַיהוָה לֶאֱכֹל עַל-הַדָּם; וַיֹּאמֶר בְּגַדְתֶּם, גֹּלּוּ-אֵלַי הַיּוֹם אֶבֶן גְּדוֹלָה. | 33 Then they told Saul, saying: 'Behold, the people sin against the LORD, in that they eat with the blood.' And he said: 'Ye have dealt treacherously; roll a great stone unto me this day.' |
| לד וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל פֻּצוּ בָעָם וַאֲמַרְתֶּם לָהֶם הַגִּישׁוּ אֵלַי אִישׁ שׁוֹרוֹ וְאִישׁ שְׂיֵהוּ, וּשְׁחַטְתֶּם בָּזֶה וַאֲכַלְתֶּם, וְלֹא-תֶחֶטְאוּ לַיהוָה, לֶאֱכֹל אֶל-הַדָּם; וַיַּגִּשׁוּ כָל-הָעָם אִישׁ שׁוֹרוֹ בְיָדוֹ, הַלַּיְלָה--וַיִּשְׁחֲטוּ-שָׁם. | 34 And Saul said: 'Disperse yourselves among the people, and say unto them: Bring me hither every man his ox, and every man his sheep, and slay them here, and eat; and sin not against the LORD in eating with the blood.' And all the people brought every man his ox with him that night, and slew them there. |
| לה וַיִּבֶן שָׁאוּל מִזְבֵּחַ, לַיהוָה; אֹתוֹ הֵחֵל, לִבְנוֹת מִזְבֵּחַ לַיהוָה. {פ} | 35 And Saul built an altar unto the LORD; the same was the first altar that he built unto the LORD. {P} |
| לו וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל נֵרְדָה אַחֲרֵי פְלִשְׁתִּים לַיְלָה וְנָבֹזָה בָהֶם עַד-אוֹר הַבֹּקֶר, וְלֹא-נַשְׁאֵר בָּהֶם אִישׁ, וַיֹּאמְרוּ, כָּל-הַטּוֹב בְּעֵינֶיךָ עֲשֵׂה; {ס} וַיֹּאמֶר, הַכֹּהֵן, נִקְרְבָה הֲלֹם, אֶל-הָאֱלֹהִים. | 36 And Saul said: 'Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and spoil them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them.' And they said: 'Do whatsoever seemeth good unto thee.' {S} Then said the priest: 'Let us draw near hither unto God.' |
| לז וַיִּשְׁאַל שָׁאוּל, בֵּאלֹהִים, הַאֵרֵד אַחֲרֵי פְלִשְׁתִּים, הֲתִתְּנֵם בְּיַד יִשְׂרָאֵל; וְלֹא עָנָהוּ, בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא. | 37 And Saul asked counsel of God: 'Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt Thou deliver them into the hand of Israel?' But He answered him not that day. |
| לח וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל--גֹּשׁוּ הֲלֹם, כֹּל פִּנּוֹת הָעָם; וּדְעוּ וּרְאוּ--בַּמָּה הָיְתָה הַחַטָּאת הַזֹּאת, הַיּוֹם. | 38 And Saul said: 'Draw nigh hither, all ye chiefs of the people; and know and see wherein this sin hath been this day. |
| לט כִּי חַי-יְהוָה, הַמּוֹשִׁיעַ אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל--כִּי אִם-יֶשְׁנוֹ בְּיוֹנָתָן בְּנִי, כִּי מוֹת יָמוּת; וְאֵין עֹנֵהוּ, מִכָּל-הָעָם. | 39 For, as the LORD liveth, who saveth Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die.' But there was not a man among all the people that answered him. |
| מ וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל-כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל, אַתֶּם תִּהְיוּ לְעֵבֶר אֶחָד, וַאֲנִי וְיוֹנָתָן בְּנִי, נִהְיֶה לְעֵבֶר אֶחָד; וַיֹּאמְרוּ הָעָם אֶל-שָׁאוּל, הַטּוֹב בְּעֵינֶיךָ עֲשֵׂה. {ס} | 40 Then said he unto all Israel: 'Be ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side.' And the people said unto Saul: 'Do what seemeth good unto thee.' {S} |
| מא וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל, אֶל-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל--הָבָה תָמִים; וַיִּלָּכֵד יוֹנָתָן וְשָׁאוּל, וְהָעָם יָצָאוּ. | 41 Therefore Saul said unto the LORD, the God of Israel: 'Declare the right.' And Jonathan and Saul were taken by lot; but the people escaped. |
| מב וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל--הַפִּילוּ, בֵּינִי וּבֵין יוֹנָתָן בְּנִי; וַיִּלָּכֵד, יוֹנָתָן. | 42 And Saul said: 'Cast lots between me and Jonathan my son.' And Jonathan was taken. |
| מג וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל אֶל-יוֹנָתָן, הַגִּידָה לִּי מֶה עָשִׂיתָה; וַיַּגֶּד-לוֹ יוֹנָתָן, וַיֹּאמֶר טָעֹם טָעַמְתִּי בִּקְצֵה הַמַּטֶּה אֲשֶׁר-בְּיָדִי מְעַט דְּבַשׁ--הִנְנִי אָמוּת. {ס} | 43 Then Saul said to Jonathan: 'Tell me what thou hast done.' And Jonathan told him, and said: 'I did certainly taste a little honey with the end of the rod that was in my hand; here am I: I will die.' {S} |
| מד וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל, כֹּה-יַעֲשֶׂה אֱלֹהִים וְכֹה יוֹסִף: כִּי-מוֹת תָּמוּת, יוֹנָתָן. | 44 And Saul said: 'God do so and more also; thou shalt surely die, Jonathan.' |
| מה וַיֹּאמֶר הָעָם אֶל-שָׁאוּל, הֲיוֹנָתָן יָמוּת אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה הַיְשׁוּעָה הַגְּדוֹלָה הַזֹּאת בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל--חָלִילָה חַי-יְהוָה אִם-יִפֹּל מִשַּׂעֲרַת רֹאשׁוֹ אַרְצָה, כִּי-עִם-אֱלֹהִים עָשָׂה הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה; וַיִּפְדּוּ הָעָם אֶת-יוֹנָתָן, וְלֹא-מֵת. {ס} | 45 And the people said unto Saul: 'Shall Jonathan die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? Far from it; as the LORD liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground; for he hath wrought with God this day.' So the people rescued Jonathan, that he died not. {S} |
| מו וַיַּעַל שָׁאוּל, מֵאַחֲרֵי פְּלִשְׁתִּים; וּפְלִשְׁתִּים, הָלְכוּ לִמְקוֹמָם. | 46 Then Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines went to their own place. |
| מז וְשָׁאוּל לָכַד הַמְּלוּכָה, עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל; וַיִּלָּחֶם סָבִיב בְּכָל-אֹיְבָיו בְּמוֹאָב וּבִבְנֵי-עַמּוֹן וּבֶאֱדוֹם וּבְמַלְכֵי צוֹבָה, וּבַפְּלִשְׁתִּים, וּבְכֹל אֲשֶׁר-יִפְנֶה, יַרְשִׁיעַ. | 47 So Saul took the kingdom over Israel, and fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines; and whithersoever he turned himself, he put them to the worse. |
| מח וַיַּעַשׂ חַיִל, וַיַּךְ אֶת-עֲמָלֵק; וַיַּצֵּל אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל, מִיַּד שֹׁסֵהוּ. {פ} | 48 And he did valiantly, and smote the Amalekites, and delivered Israel out of the hands of them that spoiled them. {P} |
| מט וַיִּהְיוּ בְּנֵי שָׁאוּל, יוֹנָתָן וְיִשְׁוִי וּמַלְכִּישׁוּעַ; וְשֵׁם, שְׁתֵּי בְנֹתָיו--שֵׁם הַבְּכִירָה מֵרַב, וְשֵׁם הַקְּטַנָּה מִיכַל. | 49 Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Ishvi, and Malchi-shua; and the names of his two daughters were these: the name of the first-born Merab, and the name of the younger Michal; |
| נ וְשֵׁם אֵשֶׁת שָׁאוּל, אֲחִינֹעַם בַּת-אֲחִימָעַץ; וְשֵׁם שַׂר-צְבָאוֹ אֲבִינֵר, בֶּן-נֵר דּוֹד שָׁאוּל. | 50 and the name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam the daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of the captain of his host was Abner, the son of Ner, Saul's uncle. |
| נא וְקִישׁ אֲבִי-שָׁאוּל וְנֵר אֲבִי-אַבְנֵר, בֶּן-אֲבִיאֵל. {ס} | 51 And Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abiel. {S} |
| נב וַתְּהִי הַמִּלְחָמָה חֲזָקָה עַל-פְּלִשְׁתִּים, כֹּל יְמֵי שָׁאוּל; וְרָאָה שָׁאוּל כָּל-אִישׁ גִּבּוֹר, וְכָל-בֶּן-חַיִל, וַיַּאַסְפֵהוּ, אֵלָיו. {פ} | 52 And there was sore war against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man, or any valiant man, he took him unto him. {P} |
