1 Samuel 10:6

10:6 Then the spirit of the Lord will rush upon you and you will prophesy with them. You will be changed into a different person.

1 Samuel 15:23

15:23 For rebellion is like the sin of divination,

and presumption is like the evil of idolatry.

Because you have rejected the word of the Lord,

he has rejected you as ¹  king.”

1 Samuel 19:23

19:23 So Saul went to Naioth in Ramah. The Spirit of God came upon him as well, and he walked along prophesying until he came to Naioth in Ramah.

1 Samuel 22:23

22:23 Stay with me. Don’t be afraid! Whoever ²  seeks my life is seeking your life as well. You are secure with me.”

1 Samuel 30:18

30:18 David retrieved everything the Amalekites had taken; he ³  also rescued his two wives.

[15:23]  ¹ tn Or “from [being].”

[22:23]  ² tn Or “the one who.” This may refer specifically to Saul, in which case David acknowledges that Abiathar’s life is endangered because of his allegiance to David. The translation assumes that the statement is more generalized, meaning that any enemy of Abiathar is an enemy of David. In other words, David promises that he will protect Abiathar with his very own life.

[30:18]  ³ tn Heb “David.” The pronoun (“he”) has been substituted for the proper name in the translation for stylistic reasons.
