1 Samuel 19:10
英文原文
David fled - This was the beginning of David's life as a fugitive and outcast, though for no "offence or fauIt" of his (Psalm 59:3, Prayer Book Version).
11
1 Samuel 19:11
掃羅的計謀是在夜間圍住那房子，等大衛清晨毫無戒備地一出來，就立刻把他殺死。
英文原文
Saul's plan was to surround the house at night, and to have David killed as soon as he came abroad unsuspectingly in the morning.
13
1 Samuel 19:13
「一個神像」——即「家神像」（Teraphim，見頁邊註）：一種人形造像或半身像，與真人一般大小，屬家神一類；以色列人、尤其是婦女，曾深深沉溺於對它的敬拜。
「枕頭」——那大概是一床山羊毛製的被褥或毯子，是常用的鋪蓋。米甲究竟是把它蒙在家神像頭上、彷彿為保暖而遮住它，還是把枕頭佈置在頭部周圍、使之看去像頭髮，經文並未說明。
英文原文
An image - "Teraphim" (see the margin), an image, or bust in human form, and as large as life, of a kind of household god, to the worship of which the Israelites, and especially women, were much addicted.
A pillow - It was probably a quilt or blanket of goats' hair and of common use as a bed-covering. Whether Michal drew it over the head of the teraphim, as if for warmth, and so covered it, or whether she disposed it about the head so as to look like hair, is not clear.
17
1 Samuel 19:17
「我何必殺你呢？」——米甲為要使掃羅的怒氣不落在自己身上，便假稱大衛曾威脅她：若不助他逃走，就要取她的性命。
英文原文
Why should I kill thee? - To avert Saul's anger from herself, she pretended that David had threatened her life unless she facilitated his escape.
18
1 Samuel 19:18
並沒有一個名為拿約（Nevaioth）的地方為人所知，但這詞的意思是「居所」。因此，一般認為拿約是先知們聚居之所的名稱，位於拉瑪城中或緊鄰其外；由於那地方和那群體的聖潔，撒母耳為求更穩妥，便帶着大衛從自己家中遷到那裏。
英文原文
No such place as Naioth (or Nevaioth) is known, but the word means "dwellings." Hence, it is considered that Naioth was the name of the collegiate residence of the prophets, in, or just outside, Ramah, to which Samuel removed with David from his own house, for greater safety, owing to the sanctity of the place and company.
20
1 Samuel 19:20
「撒母耳站在其中監管他們」——更確切地說，應作「作監督者，或首領」。
英文原文
Samuel standing as appointed - Rather, "as Overseer, or leader."
22
1 Samuel 19:22
「大井」——大概指西沽某個眾所周知的大水池，其確實位置不詳，掃羅從基比亞往拉瑪的路上經過那裏。
英文原文
To a great well - Some large well-known cistern at Sechu, the site of which is uncertain, which Saul passed on his way from Gibeah to Ramah.
24
1 Samuel 19:24
「赤身」——即脫去外袍和其他外衣，只穿着內衣。見邊註串珠。
這整段記載又一次顯明神對祂僕人的保護；這主題在大衛的詩篇中屢見不鮮。
英文原文
Naked - i. e., without his robe and other outer garments, but only the shirt. Compare the marginal references.
The whole history affords another instance of the protection of God vouchsafed to His servants, which forms so frequent a topic of the Psalms of David.
「大衛逃走了」——這是大衛淪為逃亡者與被棄者之生涯的開端，然而這並非因他有任何「過犯或罪咎」（Psalm 59:3，公禱書譯本）。
