Chapter 18
And
it
came
to
passe
when
hee
made
an
ende
of
speaking
vnto
Saul,
that
the
soule
of
Ionathan
was
knit
with
the
soule
of
Dauid,
and
Ionathan
loued
him
as
his
owne
soule.
2
And
Saul
tooke
him
that
day,
and
would
let
him
go
no
more
home
to
his
fathers
house.
3
Then
Ionathan
and
Dauid
made
a
couenant,
because
he
loued
him
as
his
owne
soule.
4
And
Ionathan
stript
himselfe
of
the
robe
that
was
vpon
him,
and
gaue
it
to
Dauid,
and
his
garments,
euen
to
his
sword,
and
to
his
bow,
and
to
his
girdle.
5
And
Dauid
went
out,
whither
soeuer
Saul
sent
him,
and
behaued
himselfe
wisely:
and
Saul
set
him
ouer
the
men
of
warre,
and
he
was
accepted
in
the
sight
of
all
the
people,
and
also
in
the
sight
of
Sauls
seruants.
6
And
it
came
to
passe
as
they
came
when
Dauid
was
returned
from
the
slaughter
of
the
Philistine,
that
the
women
came
out
of
all
cities
of
Israel,
singing
and
dancing,
to
meete
king
Saul,
with
tabrets,
with
ioy,
and
with
instruments
of
musicke.
7
And
the
women
answered
one
another
as
they
played,
and
said,
Saul
hath
slaine
his
thousands,
and
Dauid
his
ten
thousands.
8
And
Saul
was
very
wroth,
and
the
saying
displeased
him,
and
he
sayd,
They
haue
ascribed
vnto
Dauid
tenne
thousands,
and
to
me
they
haue
ascribed
but
thousands:
and
what
can
he
haue
more,
but
the
kingdome?
9
And
Saul
eyed
Dauid
from
that
day,
and
forward.
10
And
it
came
to
passe
on
the
morrow,
that
the
euill
spirit
from
God
came
vpon
Saul,
and
he
prophecied
in
the
midst
of
the
house:
and
Dauid
played
with
his
hand,
as
at
other
times:
and
there
was
a
iauelin
in
Sauls
hand.
11
And
Saul
cast
the
iauelin;
for
hee
said,
I
will
smite
Dauid
euen
to
the
wall
with
it:
and
Dauid
auoided
out
of
his
presence
twice.
12
And
Saul
was
afraid
of
Dauid,
because
the
Lord
was
with
him,
and
was
departed
from
Saul.
13
Therefore
Saul
remooued
him
from
him,
and
made
him
his
captaine
ouer
a
thousand,
and
hee
went
out
and
came
in
before
the
people.
14
And
Dauid
behaued
himselfe
wisely
in
all
his
wayes;
&
the
Lord
was
with
him.
15
Wherefore
when
Saul
saw
that
hee
behaued
himselfe
very
wisely,
hee
was
afraid
of
him.
16
But
all
Israel
and
Iudah
loued
Dauid,
because
hee
went
out
and
came
in
before
them.
17
And
Saul
said
to
Dauid,
Behold,
my
elder
daughter
Merab,
her
will
I
giue
thee
to
wife:
onely
be
thou
valiant
for
me,
and
fight
the
Lords
battels:
for
Saul
said,
Let
not
mine
hand
be
vpon
him,
but
let
the
hand
of
the
Philistines
be
vpon
him.
18
And
Dauid
said
vnto
Saul,
Who
am
I?
and
what
is
my
life,
or
my
fathers
family
in
Israel,
that
I
should
be
sonne
in
law
to
the
king?
19
But
it
came
to
passe
at
the
time
when
Merab
Sauls
daughter
should
haue
beene
giuen
to
Dauid,
that
shee
was
giuen
vnto
Adriel
the
Meholathite
to
wife.
20
And
Michal
Sauls
daughter
loued
Dauid:
and
they
tolde
Saul,
and
the
thing
pleased
him.
21
And
Saul
said,
I
will
giue
him
her,
that
she
may
be
a
snare
to
him,
and
that
the
hand
of
the
Philistines
may
be
against
him.
Wherefore
Saul
said
to
Dauid,
Thou
shalt
this
day
be
my
sonne
in
law,
in
the
one
of
the
twaine.
22
And
Saul
commanded
his
seruants,
saying,
Commune
with
Dauid
secretly,
and
say,
Behold,
the
king
hath
delight
in
thee,
and
all
his
seruants
loue
thee:
now
therefore
be
the
kings
sonne
in
law.
23
And
Sauls
seruants
spake
those
wordes
in
the
eares
of
Dauid:
And
Dauid
said,
Seemeth
it
to
you
a
light
thing
to
be
a
kings
sonne
in
law,
seeing
that
I
am
a
poore
man,
and
lightly
esteemed?
24
And
the
seruants
of
Saul
tolde
him,
saying;
On
this
manner
spake
Dauid.
25
And
Saul
said,
Thus
shall
yee
say
to
Dauid,
The
King
desireth
not
any
dowrie,
but
an
hundred
foreskinnes
of
the
Philistines,
to
be
auenged
of
the
kings
enemies.
But
Saul
thought
to
make
Dauid
fal
by
the
hand
of
the
Philistines.
26
And
when
his
seruants
told
Dauid
these
wordes,
it
pleased
Dauid
well
to
be
the
kings
sonne
in
lawe:
and
the
dayes
were
not
expired.
27
Wherefore
Dauid
arose,
hee
and
his
men,
and
slew
of
the
Philistines
two
hundred
men,
and
Dauid
brought
their
foreskinnes,
and
they
gaue
them
in
full
tale
to
the
king,
that
hee
might
be
the
kings
sonne
in
law:
and
Saul
gaue
him
Michal
his
daughter
to
wife.
28
And
Saul
saw
and
knew
that
the
Lord
was
with
Dauid,
and
that
Michal
Sauls
daughter
loued
him.
29
And
Saul
was
yet
the
more
afraid
of
Dauid;
and
Saul
became
Dauids
enemie
continually.
30
Then
the
Princes
of
the
Philistines
went
foorth:
and
it
came
to
passe
after
they
went
foorth,
that
Dauid
behaued
himselfe
more
wisely
then
all
the
seruants
of
Saul,
so
that
his
name
was
much
set
by.
