| 25:1 | Καὶ ἀπέθανεν Σαμουήλ, καὶ συναθροίζονται πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ καὶ κόπτονται αὐτόν, καὶ θάπτουσιν αὐτὸν ἐν οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ ἐν Ἁρμαθάιμ. καὶ ἀνέστη Δαυεὶδ καὶ κατέβη εἰς τὴν ἔρημον Μαάν. |
| 25:2 | Καὶ ἢν ἄνθρωπος ἐν τῇ Μαάν, καὶ τὰ ποίμνια αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ Καρμήλῳ· καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος μέγας σφόδρα, καὶ τούτῳ ποίμνια τρισχίλια καὶ αἶγες χίλιαι. καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ κείρειν τὸ ποίμνιον αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ Καρμήλῳ· |
| 25:3 | καὶ ὄνομα τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ Ναβάλ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ Ἀβειγαία· καὶ ἢ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ ἀγαθὴ συνέσει καὶ ἀγαθὴ τῷ εἴδει σφόδρα, καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος σκληρὸς καὶ πονηρὸς ἐν ἐπιτηδεύμασιν, καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος κυνικός. |
| 25:4 | καὶ ἤκουσεν Δαυεὶδ ἐν τῆ ἐρήμῳ ὅτι κείρει Ναβὰλ ὁ Καρμήλιος τὸ ποίμνιον αὐτοῦ· |
| 25:5 | καὶ Δαυεὶδ ἀπέστειλεν δέκα παιδάρια, καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς παιδαρίοις Ἀνάβητε εἰς Κάρμηλον καὶ ἀπέλθατε πρὸς Ναβάλ, καὶ ἐρωτήσατε αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου εἰς εἰρήνην, |
| 25:6 | καὶ ἐρεῖτε τάδε Εἰς ὥρας καὶ σὺ ὑγιαίνων· ὁ οἶκός σου καὶ πάντα τὰ σὰ ὑγιαίνοντα. |
| 25:7 | καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἀκήκοα ὅτι κείρουσίν σοι νῦν οἱ ποιμένες σου οἳ ἦσαν μεθ’ ἡμῶν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, καὶ οὐκ ἀπεκωλύσαμεν αὐτοὺς καὶ οὐκ ἐνετειλάμεθα αὐτοῖς οὐθέν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ὄντων αὐτῶν ἐν Καρμήλῳ. |
| 25:8 | ἐρώτησον τὰ παιδάριά σου, καὶ ἀπαγγελοῦσίν σοι. καὶ εὑρέτωσαν τὰ παιδάριά σου χάριν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου, ὅτι ἐφ’ ἡμέραν ἀγαθὴν ἥκομεν· δὸς δὴ ὃ ἐὰν εὕρῃ ἡ χείρ σου τῶ υἱῶ σου τῶ Δαυείδ. |
| 25:9 | καὶ ἔρχονται τὰ παιδάρια καὶ λαλοῦσιν τούς λόγους τούτους πρὸς Ναβὰλ καὶ πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι Δαυείδ· καὶ ἀνεπήδησεν |
| 25:10 | καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Ναβὰλ τοῖς παισὶν Δαυειδ καὶ εἶπεν τίς ὁ Δαυεὶδ καὶ τίς ὁ υἱὸς Ἰεσσαί; σήμερον πεπληθυμμένοι εἰσὶν οἱ δοῦλοι ἀναχωροῦντες ἕκαστος ἐκ προσώπου τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ. |
| 25:11 | καὶ λήμψομαι τοὺς ἄρτους μου καὶ τὸν οἶνον μου καὶ τὰ θύματά μου ἃ τέθυκα τοῖς κείρουσίν μου τὰ πρόβατα, καὶ δώσω αὐτὰ ἀνδράσιν οἷς οὐκ οἶδα πόθεν εἰσίν ; |
| 25:12 | καὶ ἀπεστράφησαν τὰ παιδάρια Δαυεὶδ εἰς ὁδὸν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἀνέστρεψαν καὶ ἦλθον καὶ ἀνήγγειλαν τῷ Δαυεὶδ κατὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα. |
| 25:13 | καὶ εἶπεν Δαυεὶδ τοῖς ἀνδράσιν αὐτοῦ Εώσασθε ἕκαστος τὴν ῥομφαίαν αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἀνέβησαν ὀπίσω Δαυεὶδ ὡς τετρακόσιοι ἄνδρες, καὶ οἱ διακόσιοι ἐκάθισαν μετὰ τῶν σκευῶν. |
| 25:14 | καὶ Ἀβειγαίᾳ γυναικὶ Ναβὰλ ἀπήγγειλεν ἓν τῶν παιδαρίων λέγων Ἴδου Δαυεὶδ ἀπέστειλεν ἀγγέλους ἐκ τῆς ἐρήμου εὐλογῆσαι κύριον ἡμῶν, καὶ ἐξέκλινεν ἀπ’ αὐτῶν. |
| 25:15 | καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες ἀγαθοὶ ἡμῖν σφόδρα. οὐκ ἀπεκώλυσαν ἡμᾶς οὐδὲ ἐνετείλαντο ἡμῖν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἃς ἦμεν παρ’ αὐτοῖς· |
| 25:16 | ἐν τῷ εἶναι ἡμᾶς ἐν ἀγρῷ ὡς τεῖχος ἦσαν περὶ ἡμᾶς καὶ τὴν νύκτα καὶ τὴν ἡμέραν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἃς ἥμεθα παρ’ αὐτοῖς ποιμαίνοντες τὸ ποίμνιον. |
| 25:17 | καὶ νῦν γνῶθι καὶ ἴδε τί σὺ ποιήσεις, ὅτι συντετέλεσται ἡ κακία εἰς τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν καὶ εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ· καὶ οὗτος υἱὸς λοιμὸς καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν λαλῆσαι πρὸς αὐτόν. |
| 25:18 | καὶ ἔσπευσεν Ἀβειγαία καὶ ἔλαβεν διακοσίους ἄρτους καὶ δύο ἀγγεῖα οἴνου καὶ πέντε πρόβατα πεποιημένα καὶ πέντε οἰφὶ ἀλφίτου καὶ γόμορ ἱν σταφίδος καὶ διακοσίας παλάθας, καὶ ἔθετο ἐπὶ τοὺς ὄνους· |
| 25:19 | καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς παιδαρίοις αὐτῆς προσπορεύεσθε ἔμπροσθέν μου, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ὀπίσω ὑμῶν παραγίνομαι. καὶ τῷ ἀνδρὶ αὐτῆς οὐκ ἀπήγγειλεν . |
| 25:20 | καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτῆς ἐπιβεβηκυίης ἐπὶ τὴν ὄνον καὶ καταβαινούσης ἐν σκέπῃ τοῦ ὄρους, καὶ ἰδοὺ Δαυεὶδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ κατέβαινον εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῆς· καὶ ἀπήντησεν αὐτοῖς. |
| 25:21 | καὶ Δαυεὶδ εἶπεν Ἴσως εἰς ἄδικον πεφύλακα πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ οὐκ ἐνετειλάμεθα λαβεῖν ἐκ πάντων τῶν αὐτοῦ οὐθέν, καὶ ἀνταπέδωκέν μοι πονηρὰ ἀντὶ ἀγαθῶν· |
| 25:22 | τάδε ποιήσαι ὁ θεὸς τῷ Δαυεὶδ καὶ τάδε προσθείη, εἰ ὑπολείψομαι ἐκ πάντων τῶν τοῦ Ναβὰλ ἕως πρωὶ οὐροῦντα πρὸς τοῖχον. |
| 25:23 | καὶ εἶδεν Ἀβειγαία τὸν Δαυείδ, καὶ ἔσπευσεν καὶ κατεπήδησεν ἀπὸ τῆς ὄνου καὶ ἐνώπιον Δαυεὶδ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτῆς, καὶ προσεκύνησεν τὴν γῆν |
| 25:24 | ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν Ἐν ἐμοί, κύριέ μου, ἢ ἀδικία μου· λαλησάτω δὴ ἡ δούλη σου εἰς τὰ ὦτά σου, καὶ ἄκουσον τῆς δούλης σου λόγον. |
| 25:25 | μὴ δὴ θέσθω ὁ κύριός μου καρδίαν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸν ἄνθρωπον τὸν λοιμὸν τοῦτον, ὅτι κατὰ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ οὗτός ἐστιν· Ναβὰλ ὄνομα αὐτῷ καὶ ἀφροσύνη μετ’ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐγὼ ἡ δούλη σου οὐκ εἶδον τὰ παιδάριά σου ἃ ἀπέστειλας. |
| 25:26 | καὶ νῦν, κύριε, ζῇ Κύριος καὶ ζῇ ἡ ψυχή σου, καθὼς ἐκώλυσέν σε κύριος τοῦ μὴ ἐλθεῖν εἰς αἷμα ἀθῷον καὶ σώζειν τὴν χεῖρά σού σοι· καὶ νῦν γένοιντο ὡς Ναβὰλ οἱ ἐχθροί σου καὶ οἱ ζητοῦντες τῷ κυρίῳ μου κακά. |
| 25:27 | καὶ νῦν λάβε τὴν εὐλογίαν ἢν ἐνήνοχεν ἡ δούλη σου τῷ κυρίῳ μου, καὶ δώσεις τοῖς παιδαρίοις τοῖς παρεστηκόσιν τῷ κυρίῳ μου. |
| 25:28 | ἆρον δὴ τὸ ια τῆς δούλης σου, ὅτι ποιῶν ποιήσει κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου οἶκον πιστόν, ὅτι πόλεμον κυρίου μου ὁ κύριος πολεμεῖ, καὶ κακία V οὐχ εὑρεθήσεται ἐν σοὶ πώποτε. |
| 25:29 | καὶ ἀναστήσεται ἄνθρωπος καταδιώκων σε καὶ ζητῶν τὴν ψυχήν σου, κ δεμένη ἐν δεσμῷ τῆς ζωῆς παρὰ κυρίῳ τῷ σου σφενδονήσεις ἐν μέσῳ τῆς σφενδόνης. |
| 25:30 | καὶ καὶ ἔσται ὅτι ποιήσει κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου πάντα ὅσα ἐλάλησεν ἀγαθὰ ἐπὶ σέ, καὶ ἐντελεῖταί σοι εἰς ἡγούμενον ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ. |
| 25:31 | καὶ οὐκ ἱστᾶι σοι τοῦτο βδελυγμὸς καὶ σκάνδαλον τῷ κυρίῳ μου, ἐκχέαι αἷμα ἀθῷον δωρεὰν καὶ σῶσαι χεῖρα κυρίου μου αὐτῷ· καὶ ἀγαθῶσαι κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου, καὶ μνησθήσῃ τῆς δούλης σου ἀγαθῶσαι αὐτῇ. |
| 25:32 | καὶ εἶπεν Δαυεὶδ τῇ Ἀβειγαίᾳ Εὐλογητὸς κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ ὃς ἀπέστειλέν σε εἰς ἀπάντησίν μου. |
| 25:33 | καὶ εὐλογητὸς ὁ τρόπος σου, καὶ εὐλογημένη σὺ ἡ ἀποκωλύσασά με σήμερον ἐν ταύτῃ μὴ ἐλθεῖν εἰς αἵματα καὶ σῶσαι μου ἐμοί. |
| 25:34 | πλὴν ὅτι ζῆ κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ ὃς ἁ με σήμερον τοῦ κακοποιῆσαί σε, ὅτι εἰ μὴ ἔσπευσας καὶ παρεγένου εἰ ἀπάντησίν μοι, τότε εἶπα Εἰ ὑπολειφθήσεται τῷ Ναβὰλ ἕως τοῦ πρωὶ οὐρῶν πρὸς τοῖχον. |
| 25:35 | καὶ ἔλαβεν Δαυεὶδ ἐκ χειρὸς πάντα ἃ ἔφερεν αὐτῷ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ἀνάβηθι εἰς εἰρήνην εἰς οἶκόν σου· βλέπε, ἤκουσα τῆς φωνῆς σου καὶ ᾑρέτισα τὸ πρόσωπόν σου. |
| 25:36 | καὶ παρεγενήθη Ἀβειγαία πρὸς Ναβάλ· καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτῷ πότος βασιλέως καὶ ἡ καρδία Ναβὰλ ἀγαθὴ ἐπ’ αὐτόν, καὶ αὐτὸς μεθύων ἕως σφόδρα· καὶ οὐκ ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ ῥῆμα μικρὸν ἢ μέγα ἕως φωτὸς τοῦ πρωί. |
| 25:37 | καὶ ἐγένετο πρωὶ ὡς ἐξένηψεν ἀπὸ τοῦ οἴνου Ναβάλ, ἀπήγγειλεν ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα, καὶ ἐναπέθανεν ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ, καὶ αὐτὸς γίνεται ὡς λίθος· |
| 25:38 | καὶ ἐγένετο ὡσεὶ δέκα ἡμέραι καὶ ἐπάταξεν κύριος τὸν Ναβάλ, καὶ ἀπέθανεν. |
| 25:39 | καὶ ἤκουσεν Δαυεὶδ καὶ εἶπεν Εὐλογητὸς κύριος ὃς ἔκρινεν τὴν κρίσιν τοῦ ὀνειδισμοῦ μου ἐκ χειρὸς Ναβάλ, καὶ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ περιεποιήσατο ἐκ χειρὸς κακῶν· κοὶ τὴν κακίαν Ναβὰλ ἀπέστρεψεν κύριος εἰς κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ. καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Δαυεὶδ καὶ ἐλάλησεν περὶ Ἀβειγαίας λαβεῖν αὐτὴν ἑαυτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα. |
| 25:40 | καὶ ἦλθον οἱ παῖδες Δαυεὶδ πρὸς Ἀβειγαίαν εἰς Κάρμηλον καὶ ἐλάλησαν αὐτῇ λέγοντες Δαυεὶδ ἀπέ ἡμᾶς πρὸς σὲ λαβεῖν σε αὐτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα. |
| 25:41 | καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ προσεκύνησεν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον καὶ εἶπεν ἰδοὺ ἡ δούλη σου εἰς παιδίσκην νίψαι πόδας τῶν παίδων σου. |
| 25:42 | καὶ ἀνέστη Ἀβειγαία καὶ ἐπέβη ἐπὶ τὴν ὄνον, καὶ πέντε κοράσια ἠκολούθουν αὐτὴ, καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὀπίσω τῶν παίδων Δαυείδ, κα γίνεται αὐτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα· |
| 25:43 | καὶ τὴν Ἀχεινάαν ἔλαβεν Δαυεὶδ ἐξ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἀμφότεραι ἦσαν αὐτῷ γυναῖκες. καὶ Σαοὺλ ἔδωκεν Μελχὸλ τὴν θυγατέρα αὐτοῦ τὴν γυναῖκα Δαυεὶδ τῷ Φαλτεὶ υἱῷ Ἀμεὶς τῷ ἐκ Ῥομμά· |

What the layers are
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
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).
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
