So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine, and killed him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then David ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath of it, and killed him, and cut off his head therewith. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

The men of Israel and of Judah arose, and shouted, and pursued the Philistines, until you come to Gai, and to the gates of Ekron. The wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath, and to Ekron.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

The children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they plundered their camp.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armor in his tent.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

When Saul saw David go forth against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the captain of the host, Abner, whose son is this youth? Abner said, As your soul lives, O king, I can't tell.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

As David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.

Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.

אֹת֖וֹ (אֹת֖) 'o.T “<obj.>”

Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was on him, and gave it to David, and his clothing, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his sash.

אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

It happened as they came, when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tambourines, with joy, and with instruments of music.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Saul eyed David from that day and forward.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

and Saul cast the spear; for he said, I will strike David even to the wall. David avoided out of his presence twice.

אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

But all Israel and Judah loved David; for he went out and came in before them.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Saul said to David, Behold, my elder daughter Merab, her will I give you as wife: only be valiant for me, and fight Yahweh's battles. For Saul said, Don't let my hand be on him, but let the hand of the Philistines be on him.

אֹתָהּ֙ (אֹתָ) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

But it happened at the time when Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as wife.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Michal, Saul's daughter, loved David: and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Saul commanded his servants, [ergänzt: saying], Commune with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you: now therefore be the king's son-in-law.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. David said, Seems it to you a light thing to be the king's son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Saul said, Thus shall you tell David, The king desires no dowry except one hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

When his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son-in-law. The days were not expired;

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

and David arose and went, he and his men, and killed of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. Saul gave him Michal his daughter as wife.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul was David's enemy continually.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David. But Jonathan, Saul's son, delighted much in David.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

for he put his life in his hand, and struck the Philistine, and Yahweh worked a great victory for all Israel: you saw it, and did rejoice; why then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all those things. Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as before.
