JONATHAN DISCLOSES HIS FATHER'S PURPOSE TO KILL DAVID.
1. Saul spake to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David--The murderous design he had secretly cherished he now reveals to a few of his intimate friends. Jonathan was among the number. He prudently said nothing at the time, but secretly apprised David of his danger; and waiting till the morning, when his father's excited temper would be cooled, he stationed his friend in a place of concealment, where, overhearing the conversation, he might learn how matters really stood and take immediate flight, if necessary.

4-7. ヨナタンはダビデについて良いことを語った――彼は父に、国に最も計り知れない奉仕をなし、その忠誠が一貫して堅実で献身的であった者のいのちに対して陰謀を企てることは大いなる罪であると告げた。ヨナタンの強い抗議は、父の衝動的な心に効果をもたらした。彼はまだ良く正直な感銘を受けやすかったため、敵対的目的を放棄するという誓いによって自らを縛った。こうして高潔な王子の介入を通して、一時的な和解が成立し、その結果ダビデは再び公務に用いられた。

4-7. Jonathan spake good of David--He told his father he was committing a great sin to plot against the life of a man who had rendered the most invaluable services to his country and whose loyalty had been uniformly steady and devoted. The strong remonstrances of Jonathan produced an effect on the impulsive mind of his father. As he was still susceptible of good and honest impressions, he bound himself by an oath to relinquish his hostile purpose; and thus, through the intervention of the noble-minded prince, a temporary reconciliation was effected, in consequence of which David was again employed in the public service.

サウルの悪意ある激怒がダビデに対して再び噴き出す.
8-10節. ダビデは出て行ってペリシテ人と戦い、大いなる殺戮をもって彼らを打った. 公敵に対する輝かしい勝利が得られた。しかしこれらのダビデの新しい栄誉は、陰鬱なサウルの胸に以前のねたみと憂鬱の霊を再び呼び覚ました。ダビデが宮廷に戻ると、サウルの気だちはかつてなく悪魔的なものとなった。竪琴の美しい調べは彼を魅了する力をすっかり失った。そして制しがたい狂乱の発作の中で、彼はダビデの人物に向けて槍を投じた――その投擲武器は部屋の壁を貫くほどの力で投げられた。ダビデは摂理によって逃れた。しかし王は今や仮面を脱ぎ捨てて攻撃的な措置に傾いたため、義理の息子の立場はどこにおいても危険なものとなった。

SAUL'S MALICIOUS RAGE BREAKS OUT AGAINST DAVID.
8-10. David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter--A brilliant victory was gained over the public enemy. But these fresh laurels of David reawakened in the moody breast of Saul the former spirit of envy and melancholy. On David's return to court, the temper of Saul became more fiendish than ever; the melodious strains of the harp had lost all their power to charm; and in a paroxysm of uncontrollable frenzy he aimed a javelin at the person of David--the missile having been thrown with such force that it pierced the chamber wall. David providentially escaped; but the king, having now thrown off the mask and being bent on aggressive measures, made his son-in-law's situation everywhere perilous.

11、12節. サウルはダビデの家に使者たちを遣わし、彼を見張って殺させた. 町の中に騒ぎを起こすことや、闇の中で彼の逃亡を助けることを恐れたため、王は彼らに朝まで見張るよう命じたと思われる。この愚かな措置は摂理によって、ダビデの逃亡を助けるために用いられた。彼の妻は、その計画を知っていたヨナタンから、あるいは宮廷の制服を着た者たちが門を見張っているのを見て、ひそかに知らされ、彼を窓からつり降ろした（参照:
Jos 2:15）。

11, 12. Saul sent messengers unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him--The fear of causing a commotion in the town, or favoring his escape in the darkness, seemed to have influenced the king in ordering them to patrol till the morning. This infatuation was overruled by Providence to favor David's escape; for his wife, secretly apprised by Jonathan, who was aware of the design, or by spying persons in court livery watching the gate, let him down through a window (see on
Jos 2:15).

13、14節. ミカルはテラフィムを取って、寝床に置いた. 「テラフィム」、文字通りには「そのテラフィム」であり、寝床ではなく、文字通りには「長椅子」の上に置いた。「枕」とは、普通長椅子の背に置かれ、やぎの毛を詰めたクッションを指すが、彼女はそれを長椅子の上部の頭もとから取った。彼女はそれをさらに下の方に置き、上着で覆い、病人が適度に暖かく保たれているかのように装った。同時に、やぎの毛の皮を広げて、乱れた人間の髪に見えるようにした。口実はダビデがそこに病で臥せっているということであった。サウルの最初の使者たちは相当の距離を保っていたため騙されたが、より近くで調べた時、その偽りは見破られた。

13, 14. And Michal took an image, and laid it in the bed--"an image," literally, "the teraphim," and laid, not in the bed, but literally on the "divan"; and "the pillows," that is, the cushion, which usually lay at the back of the divan and was stuffed with "goat's hair," she took from its bolster or heading at the upper part of the divan. This she placed lower down, and covered with a mantle, as if to foster a proper warmth in a patient; at the same time spreading the goat's hair skin, so as to resemble human hair in a dishevelled state. The pretext was that David lay there sick. The first messengers of Saul, keeping at a respectable distance, were deceived; but the imposition was detected on a closer inspection.

ダビデ、サムエルのもとへ逃れる.
18-23節. ダビデは逃げて……ラマのサムエルのところに来た. サムエルはラマの近くの小さな集落ナヨテに設立された預言者たちの学校を監督しながら、大いなる隠遁の中に生きていた。それはダビデの心にふさわしい避難所であった。しかしサウルは彼の隠れ家を突き止め、彼を捕らえるために三度続けて人々を遣わした。その場所の性格と聖なる練習の影響が彼らにそのような効果をもたらし、彼らは委任を果たすことができず、抗いがたい衝動によって神の賛美を歌うのに加わるよう導かれた。サウルは激怒と失望の発作の中で、自ら行くことを決心した。しかし、その場所に着く前に、彼の精神的感受性は使者たちよりもさらに強く刺激され、間もなく彼も若い預言者たちの群れに加わっているのが見出された。この特異な変化は、水の川のように人の心を変えることのできる方の力にのみ帰せられる。

DAVID FLEES TO SAMUEL.
18-23. David fled, . . . and came to Samuel to Ramah--Samuel was living in great retirement, superintending the school of the prophets, established in the little hamlet of Naioth, in the neighborhood of Ramah. It was a retreat congenial to the mind of David; but Saul, having found out his asylum, sent three successive bodies of men to apprehend him. The character of the place and the influence of the sacred exercises produced such an effect on them that they were incapable of discharging their commission, and were led, by a resistless impulse, to join in singing the praises of God. Saul, in a fit of rage and disappointment, determined to go himself. But, before reaching the spot, his mental susceptibilities were roused even more than his messengers, and he was found, before long, swelling the ranks of the young prophets. This singular change can be ascribed only to the power of Him who can turn the hearts of men even as the rivers of water.

サウル、預言する.
24節. 裸のまま横たわった. すなわち、よろいと上着を脱いで――恍惚状態にあった。このように神は人の怒りをもご自身を賛美させるために用い、すべての預言者のいのちを守り、サウルのすべての目的を挫折させ、ご自身のしもべのいのちを守られた。

SAUL PROPHESIES.
24. lay down naked--that is, divested of his armor and outer robes--in a state of trance. Thus God, in making the wrath of man to praise Him, preserved the lives of all the prophets, frustrated all the purposes of Saul, and preserved the life of His servant.

ヨナタンが父のダビデを殺す計画を明かす。
1. サウルはその子ヨナタンおよびすべての家来に、ダビデを殺すべきだと語った――彼が密かに抱いていた殺意の計画を、今や少数の親しい友人たちに明かした。ヨナタンもその中にいた。彼は賢明にもその場では何も言わず、密かにダビデに危険を知らせた。そして朝まで待ち、父の興奮した気性が冷える頃合いを見計らい、友人を隠れ場に配置した。そこで会話を立ち聞きすることにより、事態が実際にどうなっているかを知り、必要なら直ちに逃げることができた。
