1 Samuel 27:1

David Aligns Himself with the Philistines

27:1 David thought to himself, ¹  “One of these days I’m going to be swept away by the hand of Saul! There is nothing better for me than to escape to the land of the Philistines. Then Saul will despair of searching for me through all the territory of Israel and I will escape from his hand.”

Kisah Para Rasul 19:3

Yeremia 26:21

[27:1]  ¹ tn Heb “said to his heart.”

[27:1]  ² tn Heb “said to his heart.”

[19:3]  ³ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Paul) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[19:3]  ⁴ tn Grk “they said.”

[26:21]  ⁵ tn Heb “all his mighty men/soldiers.” It is unlikely that this included all the army. It more likely was the palace guards or royal bodyguards (see 2 Sam 23 where the same word is used of David’s elite corps).

[26:21]  ⁶ tn Heb “his words.”

[26:21]  ⁷ tn Heb “But Uriah heard and feared and fled and entered Egypt.”
