1 Samuel 29

1 And they gathered [the] Philistines all armies their Aphek towards and Israel [were] encamped at the spring which [is] in Jezreel.

Therfor alle the cumpenyes of Filisteis weren gaderid in Aphec, but also Israel settide tentis aboue the welle that was in Jezrael.

2 And [the] rulers of [the] Philistines [were] passing along to hundreds and to thousands and David and men his [were] passing along at the last with Achish.

And sotheli the princis of Filisteis yeden in cumpenyes of an hundrid, and in thousyndis; forsothe Dauid and hise men weren in the laste cumpenye with Achis.

3 And they said [the] commanders of [the] Philistines what? [are] the Hebrews these and he said Achish to [the] commanders of [the] Philistines ¿ not [is] this David [the] servant of - Saul [the] king of Israel who he has been with me this days or this years and not I have found in him anything from [the] day fell he until the day this.

And the princes of Filisteis seiden to Achis, What wolen these Ebreis to hem silf? And Achis seide to the princes of Filisteis, Whether ye knowen not Dauid, that was the seruaunt of Saul, kyng of Israel? and he was with me in many daies, `ether yeeris, and Y foond not in hym ony thing, fro the dai, in which he fledde to me `til to this dai.

4 And they were angry towards him [the] commanders of [the] Philistines and they said to him [the] commanders of [the] Philistines send back the man so may he return to place his where you assigned him there and not he will go down with us in the battle and not he will become of us an adversary in the battle and how? will he make himself acceptable this one to master his ¿ not by [the] heads of the men those.

Sotheli the princes of Filisteis weren wrooth ayens hym, and seiden to hym, The man turne ayen, and sitte in his place, in which thou hast ordened hym, and come he not down with vs in to batel, lest he be maad aduersarie to vs, whanne we han bigunne to fiyte; for hou mai he plese his lord in other maner, no but in oure heedis?

5 ¿ Not [is] this David whom people sing of him in dances saying he has struck down Saul thousands his and David (ten thousands his. *Q(K)*)

Whether this is not Dauid, to whom thei sungen in daunsis, and seiden, Saul smoot in thousyndis, and Dauid smoot in hise ten thousyndis?

6 And he summoned Achish David and he said to him [by] [the] life of Yahweh for [are] upright you and [is] good in view my going out you and coming in you with me in the camp for not I have found in you evil from [the] day coming in you to me until the day this and in [the] eyes of the rulers not [are] good you.

Therfor Achis clepide Dauid, and seide to hym, The Lord lyueth; for thou art riytful, and good in my siyt, and thi goyng out and `thin entryng is with me in castels, and Y `foond not in thee ony thing of yuel, fro the day in which thou camest to me til to this dai; but thou plesist not the princis.

7 And therefore turn back and go in peace and not you will do evil in [the] eyes of [the] rulers of [the] Philistines.

Therfor turne thou ayen, and go in pees, and offende thou not the iyen of princis of Filisteis.

8 And he said David to Achish for what? have I done and what? have you found in servant your from [the] day when I was before you until the day this that not I will go and I will fight against [the] enemies of lord my the king.

And Dauid seide to Achis, Forsothe what `dide Y, and what hast thou founde in me thi seruaunt, fro the dai in which Y was in thi siyt til in to this dai, that Y come not, and fiyte ayens the enemyes of my lord the kyng?

9 And he answered Achish and he said to David I know that [are] good you in view my like an angel of God nevertheless [the] commanders of [the] Philistines they have said not he will go up with us in battle.

Forsothe Achis answeride, and spak to Dauid, Y woot that thou art good, and as the aungel of God in my iyen; but the princes of Filisteis seyden, He schal not stie with vs in to batel.

10 And therefore rise early in the morning and [the] servants of master your who they have come with you and you will rise early in the morning and it will be light for you and go.

Therfor rise thou eerli, thou, and thi seruauntis that camen with thee; and whanne ye han ryse bi nyyt, and it bigynneth to be cleer, go ye.

11 And he rose early David he and men his to go in the morning to return to [the] land of [the] Philistines and [the] Philistines they went up Jezreel.

Therfor Dauid roos bi nyyt, he and hise men, that thei schulden go forth eerli, and turne ayen to the lond of Fylisteis; sotheli Filisteis stieden in to Jezrael.
