18:6Καὶ ἐξῆλθον αἱ χορεύουσαι εἰς συνάντησιν Δαυεὶδ ἐκ πασῶν πόλεων Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τυμπάνοις καὶ ἐν χαρμοσύνῃ καὶ ἐν κυμβάλοις·
18:7καὶ ἐξῆρχον αἱ γυναῖκες καὶ ἔλεγον Ἐπάταξεν Σαοὺλ ἐν χιλιάσιν αὐτοῦ, καὶ Δαυεὶδ ἐν μυριάσιν αὐτοῦ.
18:8καὶ πονηρὸν ἐφάνη τὸ ῥῆμα ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Σαοὺλ περὶ τοῦ λόγου τούτου, καὶ εἶπεν τῷ Δαυεὶδ ἔδωκαν τὰς μυριάδας, καὶ ἐμοὶ ἔδωκαν τὰς χιλιάδας.
18:9καὶ ἦν Σαοὺλ ὑποβλεπόμενος τὸν Δαυεὶδ ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας ἐκείνης καὶ ἐπέκεινα.
18:12καὶ ἐφοβήθη Σαοὺλ ἀπὸ προσώπου Δαυείδ,
18:13καὶ ἀπέστησεν αὐτὸν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ κατέστησεν αὐτὸν ἑαυτῷ χιλίαρχον· καὶ ἐξεπορεύετο καὶ εἰσεπορεύετο ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ λαοῦ.
18:14καὶ ἦν Δαυεὶδ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ συνίων, καὶ κύριος μετ’ αὐτοῦ.
18:15καὶ εἶδεν Σαοὺλ ὡς αὐτὸς συνίει σφόδρα, καὶ εὐλαβεῖτο ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ.
18:16καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ καὶ Ἰούδας ἠγάπα τὸν Δαυείδ, ὅτι αὐτὸς εἰσεπορεύετο καὶ ἐξεπορεύετο πρὸ προσώπου τοῦ λαοῦ.
18:20καὶ ἠγάπησεν Μελχὸλ ἡ θυγάτηρ Σαοὺλ τὸν Δαυείδ, καὶ ἀπηγγέλη Σαοὺλ καὶ ηὐθύνθη ἐν τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτοῦ.
18:21καὶ εἶπεν Σαούλ Δώσω αὐτὴν αὐτῷ, καὶ ἔσται αὐτῷ εἰς σκάνδαλον. καὶ ἦν ἐπὶ Σαοὺλ χεὶρ ἀλλοφύλων.
18:22καὶ ἐνετείλατο Σαοὺλ τοῖς παισὶν αὐτοῦ λέγων Λαλήσατε ὑμεῖς λάθρα τῷ Δαυεὶδ λέγοντες ἰδοὺ ὁ βασιλεὺς θέλει ἐν σοί, καὶ πάντες οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ ἀγαπῶσίν σε, καὶ σὺ ἐπιγάμβρευσον τῷ βασιλεῖ.
18:23καὶ ἐλάλησαν οἱ παῖδες Σαοὺλ εἰς τὰ ὦτα Δαυεὶδ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα· καὶ εἶπεν Δαυείδ Κοῦφον ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς ὑμῶν ἐπιγαμβρεῦσαι βασιλεῖ; κἀγὼ ἀνὴρ ταπεινὸς καὶ οὐχὶ ἔνδοξος.
18:24καὶ ἀπήγγειλαν οἱ παῖδες Σαοὺλ αὐτῷ κατὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ἃ ἐλάλησεν Δαυείδ.
18:25καὶ εἶπεν Σαούλ τάδε ἐρεῖτε τῷ Δαυείδ Οὐ βούλεται ὁ ἐν δόματι ἀλλ’ ἢ ἐν ἑκατὸν ἀκροβυστίαις ἀλλοφύλων, εκδικῆτοῦ βασιλέως. καὶ Σαοὺλ ἐλογίσατο αὐτὸν ἐμβαλεῖν εἰς χεῖρας τῶν ἀλλοφύλων.
18:26καὶ ἀπαγγέλλουσιν οἱ παῖδες Σαοὺλ τῶ Δαυεὶδ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα, καὶ εὐθύνθη ὁ λόγος ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Δαυεὶδ ἐπιγαμβρεῦσαι τῷ βασιλεῖ·
18:27καὶ ἀνέστη Δαυεὶδ καὶ ἐπορεύθη αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπάταξεν ἐν τοῖς ἀλλοφύλοις ἑκατὸν ἄνδρας, καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν τὰς ἀκροβυστίας αὐτῶν τῷ βασιλεῖ, καὶ ἐπιγαμβρεύεται τῷ βασιλεῖ, καὶ δίδωσιν αὐτῷ τὴν Μελχὸλ θυγατέρα αὐτοῦ αὐτῶ εἰς γυναῖκα.
18:28καὶ εἶδεν Σαοὺλ ὅτι κύριος μετὰ Δαυεὶδ καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ ἠγάπα αὐτόν, καὶ προσέθετο εὐλαβεῖσθαι ἀπὸ Δαυεὶδ ἔτι.

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
L0.5 transliteration
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).
L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
