וַיְהִי בְּבֹא דָוִד וַאֲנָשָׁיו צִקְלַג בַּיּוֹם הַשְּׁלִישִׁי וַעֲמָלֵקִי פָשְׁטוּ אֶל־נֶגֶב וְאֶל־צִקְלַג וַיַּכּוּ אֶת־צִקְלַג וַיִּשְׂרְפוּ אֹתָהּ בָּאֵשׁ
And it came to pass, when David and his men were come to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites had made a raid upon the South, and upon Ziklag, and had smitten Ziklag, and burned it with fire;
Καὶ ἐγενήθη εἰσελθόντος Δαυὶδ καὶ τῶν ἀνδρῶν αὐτοῦ τὴν Σεκελὰκ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ, καὶ Ἀμαλὴκ ἐπέθετο ἐπὶ τὸν Νότον καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν Σεκελὰκ, καὶ ἐπάταξε τὴν Σεκελὰκ καὶ ἐνεπύρισαν αὐτὴν ἐν πυρί.
And it came to pass when David and his men had entered Ziklag on the third day, that Amalek had made an incursion upon the south, and upon Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag, and burned it with fire.
2
וַיִּשְׁבּוּ אֶת־הַנָּשִׁים אֲשֶׁר־בָּהּ מִקָּטֹן וְעַד־גָּדוֹל לֹא הֵמִיתוּ אִישׁ וַיִּנְהֲגוּ וַיֵּלְכוּ לְדַרְכָּם
and had taken captive the women and all that were therein, both small and great; they slew not any, but carried them off, and went their way.
Καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας καὶ πάντα τὰ ἐν αὐτῇ ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου οὐκ ἐθανάτωσαν ἄνδρα καὶ γυναῖκα, ἀλλʼ ᾐχμαλὼτευσαν, καὶ ἀπῆλθον εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτῶν.
And as to the women and all things that were in it, great and small, they slew neither man nor woman, but carried them captives, and went on their way.
3
וַיָּבֹא דָוִד וַאֲנָשָׁיו אֶל־הָעִיר וְהִנֵּה שְׂרוּפָה בָּאֵשׁ וּנְשֵׁיהֶם וּבְנֵיהֶם וּבְנֹתֵיהֶם נִשְׁבּוּ
And when David and his men came to the city, behold, it was burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives.
Καὶ ἦλθε Δαυὶδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐμπεπύρισται ἐν πυρὶ, αἱ δὲ γυναῖκες αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες αὐτῶν ᾐχμαλωτευμένοι.
And David and his men came into the city, and, behold, it was burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were carried captive.
4
וַיִּשָּׂא דָוִד וְהָעָם אֲשֶׁר־אִתּוֹ אֶת־קוֹלָם וַיִּבְכּוּ עַד אֲשֶׁר אֵין־בָּהֶם כֹּחַ לִבְכּוֹת
Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep.
Καὶ ᾖρε Δαυὶδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ τὴν φωνὴν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔκλαυσαν ἕως ὅτου οὐκ ἦν ἐν αὐτοῖς ἰσχὺς ἔτι τοῦ κλαίειν.
And David and his men lifted up their voice, and wept till there was no longer any power within them to weep.
5
וּשְׁתֵּי נְשֵׁי־דָוִד נִשְׁבּוּ אֲחִינֹעַם הַיִּזְרְעֵלִית וַאֲבִיגַיִל אֵשֶׁת נָבָל הַכַּרְמְלִי
And David's two wives were taken captives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
Καὶ ἀμφότεραι αἱ γυναῖκες Δαυὶδ ᾐχμαλωτεύθησαν, Ἀχιναὰμ ἡ Ἰεζραηλίτις, καὶ Ἀβιγαία ἡ γυνὴ Νάβαλ τοῦ Καρμηλίου.
And both the wives of David were carried captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
6
וַתֵּצֶר לְדָוִד מְאֹד כִּי־אָמְרוּ הָעָם לְסָקְלוֹ כִּי־מָרָה נֶפֶשׁ כָּל־הָעָם אִישׁ עַל־בנו בָּנָיו וְעַל־בְּנֹתָיו וַיִּתְחַזֵּק דָּוִד בַּיהוָה אֱלֹהָיו
And David was greatly distressed; for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters; but David strengthened himself in HaShem his G-d.
Καὶ ἐθλίβη Δαυὶδ σφόδρα, ὅτι εἶπεν ὁ λαὸς λιθοβολῆσαι αὐτὸν, ὅτι κατώδυνος ψυχὴ παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ ἑκάστου ἐπὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐκραταιώθη Δαυὶδ ἐν Κυρίῳ Θεῷ αὐτοῦ.
And David was greatly distressed, because the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, each for his sons and his daughters: but David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.
7
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד אֶל־אֶבְיָתָר הַכֹּהֵן בֶּן־אֲחִימֶלֶךְ הַגִּישָׁה־נָּא לִי הָאֵפֹד וַיַּגֵּשׁ אֶבְיָתָר אֶת־הָאֵפֹד אֶל־דָּוִד
And David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech: 'I pray thee, bring me hither the ephod.' And Abiathar brought thither the ephod to David.
Καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς Ἀβιάθαρ τὸν ἱερέα υἱὸν Ἀχιμέλεχ, προσάγαγε τὸ ἐφούδ.
And David said to Abiathar the priest the son of Ahimelech, Bring near the ephod.
8
וַיִּשְׁאַל דָּוִד בַּיהוָה לֵאמֹר אֶרְדֹּף אַחֲרֵי הַגְּדוּד־הַזֶּה הַאַשִּׂגֶנּוּ וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ רְדֹף כִּי־הַשֵּׂג תַּשִּׂיג וְהַצֵּל תַּצִּיל
And David inquired of HaShem, saying: 'Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them?' And He answered him: 'Pursue; for thou shalt surely overtake them, and shalt without fail recover all.'
Καὶ ἐπηρώτησε Δαυὶδ διὰ τοῦ Κυρίου, λέγων, εἰ καταδιώξω ὀπίσω τοῦ γεδδοὺρ τούτου; εἰ καταλήμψομαι αὐτούς; καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, καταδίωκε, ὅτι καταλαμβάνων καταλήμψῃ αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἐξαιρούμενος ἐξελῇ.
And David inquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? and he said to him, Pursue, for thou shalt surely overtake them, and thou shalt surely rescue [the captives].
9
וַיֵּלֶךְ דָּוִד הוּא וְשֵׁשׁ־מֵאוֹת אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר אִתּוֹ וַיָּבֹאוּ עַד־נַחַל הַבְּשׂוֹר וְהַנּוֹתָרִים עָמָדוּ
So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and came to the brook Besor, where those that were left behind stayed.
Καὶ ἐπορεύθη Δαυὶδ αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ ἑξακόσιοι ἄνδρες μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔρχονται ἕως τοῦ χειμάῤῥου Βοσὸρ, καὶ οἱ περισσοὶ ἔστησαν.
So David went, he and the six hundred men with him, and they come as far as the brook Besor, and the superfluous ones stopped.
10
וַיִּרְדֹּף דָּוִד הוּא וְאַרְבַּע־מֵאוֹת אִישׁ וַיַּעַמְדוּ מָאתַיִם אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר פִּגְּרוּ מֵעֲבֹר אֶת־נַחַל הַבְּשׂוֹר
But David pursued, he and four hundred men; for two hundred stayed behind, who were so faint that they could not go over the brook Besor.
Καὶ κατεδίωξεν ἐν τετρακοσίοις ἀνδράσιν· ὑπέστησαν δὲ διακόσιοι ἄνδρες οἵτινες ἐκάθισαν πέραν τοῦ χειμάῤῥου τοῦ Βοσόρ.
And he pursued them with four hundred men; and there remained behind two hundred men, who tarried on the other side of the brook Besor.
11
וַיִּמְצְאוּ אִישׁ־מִצְרִי בַּשָּׂדֶה וַיִּקְחוּ אֹתוֹ אֶל־דָּוִד וַיִּתְּנוּ־לוֹ לֶחֶם וַיֹּאכַל וַיַּשְׁקֻהוּ מָיִם
And they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David, and gave him bread, and he did eat; and they gave him water to drink;
Καὶ εὑρίσκουσιν ἄνδρα Αἰγύπτιον ἐν ἀγρῷ, καὶ λαμβάνουσιν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἄγουσιν αὐτὸν πρὸς Δαυίδ· καὶ διδόασιν αὐτῷ ἄρτον καὶ ἔφαγε, καὶ ἐπότισαν αὐτὸν ὕδωρ·
And they find an Egyptian in the field, and they take him, and bring him to David; and they gave him bread and he ate, and they caused him to drink water.
12
וַיִּתְּנוּ־לוֹ פֶלַח דְּבֵלָה וּשְׁנֵי צִמֻּקִים וַיֹּאכַל וַתָּשָׁב רוּחוֹ אֵלָיו כִּי לֹא־אָכַל לֶחֶם וְלֹא־שָׁתָה מַיִם שְׁלֹשָׁה יָמִים וּשְׁלֹשָׁה לֵילוֹת
and they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and two clusters of raisins; and when he had eaten, his spirit came back to him; for he had eaten no bread, nor drunk any water, three days and three nights.
καὶ διδόασιν αὐτῷ κλάσμα παλάθης καὶ ἔφαγε, καὶ κατέστη τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ· ὅτι οὐ βεβρώκει ἄρτον, καὶ οὐ πεπώκει ὕδωρ τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ τρεῖς νύκτας.
And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and he ate, and his spirit was restored in him; for he had not eaten bread, and had not drunk water three days and three nights.
13
וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ דָוִד לְמִי־אַתָּה וְאֵי מִזֶּה אָתָּה וַיֹּאמֶר נַעַר מִצְרִי אָנֹכִי עֶבֶד לְאִישׁ עֲמָלֵקִי וַיַּעַזְבֵנִי אֲדֹנִי כִּי חָלִיתִי הַיּוֹם שְׁלֹשָׁה
And David said unto him: 'To whom belongest thou? and whence art thou?' And he said: 'I am a young Egyptian, servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days ago I fell sick.
Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Δαυὶδ, τίνος σὺ εἶ, καὶ πόθεν εἶ; καὶ εἶπε τὸ παιδάριον τὸ Αἰγύπτιον, ἐγώ εἰμι δοῦλος ἀνδρὸς Ἀμαληκίτου, καὶ κατέλιπέ με ὁ κύριός μου, ὅτι ἠνωχλήθην ἐγὼ σήμερον τριταῖος.
And David said to him, Whose art thou? and whence art thou? and the young man the Egyptian said, I am the servant of an Amalekite; and my master left me, because I was taken ill three days ago.
14
אֲנַחְנוּ פָּשַׁטְנוּ נֶגֶב הַכְּרֵתִי וְעַל־אֲשֶׁר לִיהוּדָה וְעַל־נֶגֶב כָּלֵב וְאֶת־צִקְלַג שָׂרַפְנוּ בָאֵשׁ
We made a raid upon the South of the Cherethites, and upon that which belongeth to Judah, and upon the South of Caleb; and we burned Ziklag with fire.'
Καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐπεθέμεθα ἐπὶ τὸν Νότον τοῦ Χελεθὶ, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ τῆς Ἰουδαίας μέρη, καὶ ἐπὶ Νότον Χελοὺβ, καὶ τὴν Σεκελὰκ ἐνεπυρίσαμεν ἐν πυρί.
And we made an incursion on the south of the Cherethite, and on the parts of Judea, and on the south of Caleb, and we burned Ziklag with fire.
15
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו דָּוִד הֲתוֹרִדֵנִי אֶל־הַגְּדוּד הַזֶּה וַיֹּאמֶר הִשָּׁבְעָה לִּי בֵאלֹהִים אִם־תְּמִיתֵנִי וְאִם־תַּסְגִּרֵנִי בְּיַד־אֲדֹנִי וְאוֹרִדְךָ אֶל־הַגְּדוּד הַזֶּה
And David said to him: 'Wilt thou bring me down to this troop?' And he said: 'Swear unto me by G-d, that thou wilt neither kill me, nor deliver me up into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee down to this troop.'
Καὶ εἶπεν, αὐτῷ Δαυὶδ, εἰ κατάξεις με ἐπὶ τὸ γεδδοὺρ τοῦτο; καὶ εἶπεν, ὄμοσον δή μοι κατὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ μὴ θανατώσειν με, καὶ μὴ παραδοῦναί με εἰς χεῖρας τοῦ κυρίου μου, καὶ κατάξω σε ἐπὶ τὸ γεδδοὺρ τοῦτο.
And David said to him, Wilt thou bring me down to this troop? and he said, Swear now to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, and that thou wilt not deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee down upon this troop.
16
וַיֹּרִדֵהוּ וְהִנֵּה נְטֻשִׁים עַל־פְּנֵי כָל־הָאָרֶץ אֹכְלִים וְשֹׁתִים וְחֹגְגִים בְּכֹל הַשָּׁלָל הַגָּדוֹל אֲשֶׁר לָקְחוּ מֵאֶרֶץ פְּלִשְׁתִּים וּמֵאֶרֶץ יְהוּדָה
And when he had brought him down, behold, they were spread abroad over all the ground, eating and drinking, and feasting, because of all the great spoil that they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
Καὶ κατήγαγεν αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἰδοὺ οὗτοι διακεχυμένοι ἐπὶ πρόσωπον πάσης τῆς γῆς, ἐσθίοντες καὶ πίνοντες καὶ ἑορτάζοντες ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς σκύλοις τοῖς μεγάλοις, οἷς ἔλαβον ἐκ γῆς ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἐκ γῆς Ἰούδα.
So he brought him down thither, and behold, they [were] scattered abroad upon the surface of the whole land, eating and drinking, and feasting by [reason of] all the great spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
17
וַיַּכֵּם דָּוִד מֵהַנֶּשֶׁף וְעַד־הָעֶרֶב לְמָחֳרָתָם וְלֹא־נִמְלַט מֵהֶם אִישׁ כִּי אִם־אַרְבַּע מֵאוֹת אִישׁ־נַעַר אֲשֶׁר־רָכְבוּ עַל־הַגְּמַלִּים וַיָּנֻסוּ
And David smote them from the twilight even unto the evening of the next day; and there escaped not a man of them, save four hundred young men, who rode upon camels and fled.
Καὶ ἦλθεν ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς Δαυὶδ, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ ἑωσφόρου ἕως δείλης καὶ τῇ ἐπαύριον· καὶ οὐκ ἐσώθη ἐξ αὐτῶν ἀνὴρ, ὅτι ἀλλʼ ἢ τετρακόσια παιδάρια, ἃ ἦν ἐπιβεβηκότα ἐπὶ τὰς καμήλους, καὶ ἔφυγον.
And David came upon them, and smote them from the morning till the evening, and on the next day; and not one of them escaped, except four hundred young men, who were mounted on camels, and fled.
18
וַיַּצֵּל דָּוִד אֵת כָּל־אֲשֶׁר לָקְחוּ עֲמָלֵק וְאֶת־שְׁתֵּי נָשָׁיו הִצִּיל דָּוִד
And David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken; and David rescued his two wives.
Καὶ ἀφείλατο Δαυὶδ πάντα ἃ ἔλαβον οἱ Ἀμαληκῖται, καὶ ἀμφότερας τὰς γυναῖκας αὐτοῦ ἐξείλατο.
And David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken, and he rescued both his wives.
19
וְלֹא נֶעְדַּר־לָהֶם מִן־הַקָּטֹן וְעַד־הַגָּדוֹל וְעַד־בָּנִים וּבָנוֹת וּמִשָּׁלָל וְעַד כָּל־אֲשֶׁר לָקְחוּ לָהֶם הַכֹּל הֵשִׁיב דָּוִד
And there was nothing lacking to them, neither small nor great, neither sons nor daughters, neither spoil, nor any thing that they had taken to them; David brought back all.
Καὶ οὐ διεφώνησεν αὐτοῖς ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου, καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν σκύλων, καὶ ἕως υἱῶν καὶ θυγατέρων, καὶ ἕως πάντων ὧν ἔλαβον αὐτῶν, καὶ πάντα ἐπέστρεψε Δαυίδ.
And nothing was wanting to them of great or small, either of the spoils, or the sons and daughters, or anything that they had taken of theirs; and David recovered all.
20
וַיִּקַּח דָּוִד אֶת־כָּל־הַצֹּאן וְהַבָּקָר נָהֲגוּ לִפְנֵי הַמִּקְנֶה הַהוּא וַיֹּאמְרוּ זֶה שְׁלַל דָּוִד
And David took all the flocks and the herds, which they drove before those other cattle, and said: 'This is David's spoil.'
Καὶ ἔλαβε πάντα τὰ ποίμνια, καὶ τὰ βουκόλια, καὶ ἀπήγαγεν ἔμπροσθεν τῶν σκύλων· καὶ τοῖς σκύλοις ἐκείνοις ἐλέγετο, ταῦτα τὰ σκῦλα Δαυίδ.
And he took all the flocks, and the herds, and led them away before the spoils: and it was said of these spoils, These [are] the spoils of David.
21
וַיָּבֹא דָוִד אֶל־מָאתַיִם הָאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר־פִּגְּרוּ מִלֶּכֶת אַחֲרֵי דָוִד וַיֹּשִׁיבֻם בְּנַחַל הַבְּשׂוֹר וַיֵּצְאוּ לִקְרַאת דָּוִד וְלִקְרַאת הָעָם אֲשֶׁר־אִתּוֹ וַיִּגַּשׁ דָּוִד אֶת־הָעָם וַיִּשְׁאַל לָהֶם לְשָׁלוֹם
And David came to the two hundred men, who were so faint that they could not follow David, whom also they had made to abide at the brook Besor; and they went forth to meet David, and to meet the people that were with him; and when David came near to the people, he saluted them.
Καὶ παραγίνεται Δαυὶδ πρὸς τοὺς διακοσὶους ἄνδρας τούς ὑπολειφθέντας τοῦ πορεύεσθαι ὀπίσω Δαυὶδ, καὶ ἐκάθισεν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ χειμάῤῥῳ τοῦ Βοσὸρ, καὶ ἐξῆλθον εἰς ἀπάντησιν Δαυὶδ καὶ εἰς ἀπάντησιν τοῦ λαοῦ τοῦ μετʼ αὐτοῦ· καὶ προσήγαγε Δαυὶδ ἕως τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ ἠρώτησαν αὐτὸν τὰ εἰς εἰρήνην.
And David comes to the two hundred men who were left behind that they should not follow after David, and he had caused them to remain by the brook of Besor; and they came forth to meet David, and to meet his people with him: and David drew near to the people, and they asked him how he did.
22
וַיַּעַן כָּל־אִישׁ־רָע וּבְלִיַּעַל מֵהָאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר הָלְכוּ עִם־דָּוִד וַיֹּאמְרוּ יַעַן אֲשֶׁר לֹא־הָלְכוּ עִמִּי לֹא־נִתֵּן לָהֶם מֵהַשָּׁלָל אֲשֶׁר הִצַּלְנוּ כִּי־אִם־אִישׁ אֶת־אִשְׁתּוֹ וְאֶת־בָּנָיו וְיִנְהֲגוּ וְיֵלֵכוּ
Then answered all the wicked men and base fellows, of those that went with David, and said: 'Because they went not with us, we will not give them aught of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, that they may lead them away, and depart.'
Καὶ ἀπεκρίθη πᾶς ἀνὴρ λοιμὸς καὶ πονηρὸς τῶν ἀνδρῶν τῶν πολεμιστῶν τῶν πορευθέντων μετὰ Δαυὶδ, καὶ εἶπον, ὅτι οὐ κατεδίωξαν μεθʼ ἡμῶν, οὐ δώσομεν αὐτοῖς ἐκ τῶν σκύλων ὧν ἐξειλόμεθα, ὅτι ἀλλʼ ἢ ἕκαστος τὴς γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτοῦ ἀπαγέσθωσαν, καὶ ἀποστρεφέτωσαν.
Then every ill-disposed and bad man of the soldiers who had gone with David, answered and said, Because they did not pursue together with us, we will not give them of the spoils which we have recovered, only let each one lead away with him his wife and his children, and let them return.
23
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד לֹא־תַעֲשׂוּ כֵן אֶחָי אֵת אֲשֶׁר־נָתַן יְהוָה לָנוּ וַיִּשְׁמֹר אֹתָנוּ וַיִּתֵּן אֶת־הַגְּדוּד הַבָּא עָלֵינוּ בְּיָדֵנוּ
Then said David: `Ye shall not do so, my brethren, with that which HaShem hath given unto us, who hath preserved us, and delivered the troop that came against us into our hand.
Καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ, οὐ ποιήσετε οὕτως, μετὰ τὸ παραδοῦναι τὸν Κύριον ἡμῖν, καὶ φυλάξαι ἡμᾶς, καὶ παρέδωκε Κύριος τὸν γεδδοὺρ τὸν ἐπερχόμενον ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς, εἰς χεῖρας ἡμῶν.
And David said, Ye shall not do so, after the Lord has delivered [the enemy] to us, and guarded us, and the Lord has delivered into our hands the troop that came against us.
24
וּמִי יִשְׁמַע לָכֶם לַדָּבָר הַזֶּה כִּי כְּחֵלֶק הַיֹּרֵד בַּמִּלְחָמָה וּכְחֵלֶק הַיֹּשֵׁב עַל־הַכֵּלִים יַחְדָּו יַחֲלֹקוּ
And who will hearken unto you in this matter? for as is the share of him that goeth down to the battle, so shall be the share of him that tarrieth by the baggage; they shall share alike.'
Καὶ τίς ἐπακούσεται ὑμῶν τῶν λόγων τούτων; ὅτιδοὐχ ἧττον ἡμῶν εἰσι, διότι κατὰ τὴν μερίδα τοῦ καταβαίνοντος εἰς τὸν πόλεμον, οὕτως ἔσται ἡ μερὶς τοῦ καθημένου ἐπὶ τὰ σκεύη, κατὰ τὸ αὐτὸ μεριοῦνται.
And who will hearken to these your words? for they are not inferior to us; for according to the portion of him that went down to the battle, so shall be the portion of him that abides with the baggage; they shall share alike.
25
וַיְהִי מֵהַיּוֹם הַהוּא וָמָעְלָה וַיְשִׂמֶהָ לְחֹק וּלְמִשְׁפָּט לְיִשְׂרָאֵל עַד הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה
And it was so from that day forward, that he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel unto this day.
Καὶ ἐγενήθη ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας ἐκείνης καὶ ἐπάνω, καὶ ἐγένετο εἰς προστάγμα καὶ εἱς δικαίωμα τῷ Ἰσραὴλ ἕως τῆς σήμερον.
And it came to pass from that day forward, that it became an ordinance and a custom in Israel until this day.
26
וַיָּבֹא דָוִד אֶל־צִקְלַג וַיְשַׁלַּח מֵהַשָּׁלָל לְזִקְנֵי יְהוּדָה לְרֵעֵהוּ לֵאמֹר הִנֵּה לָכֶם בְּרָכָה מִשְּׁלַל אֹיְבֵי יְהוָה
And when David came to Ziklag, he sent of the spoil unto the elders of Judah, even to his friends, saying: 'Behold a present for you of the spoil of the enemies of HaShem';
Καὶ ἦλθε Δαυὶδ εἰς Σεκελὰκ, καὶ ἀπέστειλε τοῖς πρεσβυτέροις τῶν σκύλων Ἰούδα καὶ τοῖς πλησίον αὐτοῦ, λέγων, ἰδοὺ ἀπὸ τῶν σκύλων τῶν ἐχθρῶν Κυρίου,
And David came to Ziklag, and sent of the spoils to the elders of Judah, and to his friends, saying, Behold [some] of the spoils of the enemies of the Lord;
27

And to those in Aroer, and to those in Ammadi, and to those in Siphmoth, and to those in Eshtemoa,

καὶ τοῖς ἐν Καρμήλῳ, καὶ τοῖς ἐν ταῖς πόλεσι τοῦ Ἱερεμεὴλ, καὶ τοῖς ἐν ταῖς πόλεσι τοῦ Κενεζὶ,
and to those in Carmel, and to those in the cities of Jerahmeel, and to those in the cities of the Kenite;
30

and to them that were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men were wont to haunt.
καὶ τοῖς ἐν Χεβρὼν, καὶ πάντας τοὺς τόπους οὓς διῆλθε Δαυὶδ ἐκεῖ αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ.
and to those in Hebron, and to all the places which David and his men had passed through.
