Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

23:1-29 Thanks to informants (23:7, 13), Saul was able to stay on David’s trail. David also had informants, allowing him to keep one step ahead of Saul (23:1, 9, 15, 25). David’s chief advantage was access to divine guidance and resources (23:2, 4, 12), which Saul lacked.

David is asking about one event before asking about another event that would precede it. In your translation, you may wish to relate these events in the order in which they would happen. Alternate translation: [Will Saul come down, just as your servant has heard? Will the lords of Keilah enclose me in his hand?]

David is speaking of the lords of Keilah surrendering to Saul as if they would place him in Saul’s hand and enclose him in it by wrapping Saul’s fingers tightly around him. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Will the lords of Keilah surrender me to him]
