1 Samuel 22:8
<< 1 Samuel 22:8 >>
New International Version (©1984)
Is that why you have all conspired against me? No one tells me when my son makes a covenant with the son of Jesse. None of you is concerned about me or tells me that my son has incited my servant to lie in wait for me, as he does today."

New American Standard Bible (©1995)
"For all of you have conspired against me so that there is no one who discloses to me when my son makes a covenant with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you who is sorry for me or discloses to me that my son has stirred up my servant against me to lie in ambush, as it is this day."

GOD'S WORD® Translation (©1995)
All of you are plotting against me, and no one informed me when my son entered into a loyalty pledge with Jesse's son. No one felt sorry for me and informed me that my son has encouraged my servant David to ambush me, as he's doing now."

King James Bible

Wesley's Notes

22:8 That all, and c. - See the nature of jealousy, and its arts of wheedling to extort discoveries of things that are not.

King James Translators' Notes

sheweth...: Heb. uncovereth mine ear

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

22:6-19 See the nature of jealous malice and its pitiful arts. Saul looks upon all about him as his enemies, because they do not just say as he says. In Ahimelech's answer to Saul we have the language of conscious innocence. But what wickedness will not the evil spirit hurry men to when he gets the dominion! Saul alleges that which was utterly false and unproved. But the most bloody tyrants have found instruments of their cruelty as barbarous as themselves. Doeg, having murdered the priests, went to the city, Nob, and put all to the sword there. Nothing so vile but those may do it, who have provoked God to give them up to their hearts' lusts. Yet this was the accomplishment of the threatenings against the house of Eli. Though Saul was unrighteous in doing this, yet God was righteous in permitting it. No word of God shall fall to the ground.


1 Samuel 18:3 Then Jonathan made a covenant with David because he loved him as himself.
1 Samuel 20:16 So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, "May the LORD require it at the hands of David's enemies."
1 Samuel 23:21 Saul said, "May you be blessed of the LORD, for you have had compassion on me. (NASB ©1995)
