1 Samuel 17:52

1 Samuel 25:29

25:29 When someone sets out to chase you and to take your life, the life of my lord will be wrapped securely in the bag ³  of the living by the Lord your God. But he will sling away the lives of your enemies from the sling’s pocket!

1 Samuel 26:20

26:20 Now don’t let my blood fall to the ground away from the Lord’s presence, for the king of Israel has gone out to look for a flea the way one looks for a partridge ⁴  in the hill country.”

[17:52]  ¹ tn Heb “arose and cried out.”

[17:52]  ² tc Most of the LXX ms tradition has here “Gath.”

[25:29]  ³ tn Cf. KJV, NAB, NIV, NRSV “bundle”; NLT “treasure pouch.”

[26:20]  ⁵ tn Heb “the calling [one],” which apparently refers to a partridge.
