Biblia Brzeska

Tedy Dawid mówił tak sam w sobie: Może przyść ten dzień, iż kiedy zginę od rąk Saulowych, a nic lepszego nie baczę, jedno abym uszedł do ziemie filistyńskiej. A tak już Saul przestanie mię szukać po wszech granicach izraelskich i ujdę tak rąk jego.

Biblia Gdańska (1632)
Tedy rzekł Dawid w sercu swojem: Zginę ja kiedyżkolwiek od ręki Saulowej. Azaż mnie nie lepiej, abym co prędzej uszedł do ziemi Filistyńskiej, aby zwątpił o mnie Saul, i nie szukał mię więcej po wszystkich granicach Izraelskich, i tak abym uszedł rąk jego?

Nowe Przymierze Zaremba
Dawid jednak doszedł do przekonania: Pewnego dnia zginę w końcu z ręki Saula. Nie pozostaje mi nic lepszego, jak czym prędzej przemknąć się do ziemi Filistynów. Saul w swojej rozpaczy będzie mnie wciąż tropił w granicach Izraela, lecz ja wymknę mu się z ręki.

Nowa Biblia Gdańska (2012)
Jednak Dawid pomyślał w swoim sercu: Któregoś dnia zginę z ręki Saula; będzie dla mnie najlepszym, bym się w porę schronił do pelisztyńskiej ziemi. Wtedy Saul przestanie mnie ścigać po całym dziedzictwie Israela. Tak ujdę z jego ręki.

Biblia Tysiąclecia
Tedy rzekł Dawid w sercu swojem: Zginę ja kiedyżkolwiek od ręki Saulowej. Azaż mnie nie lepiej, abym co prędzej uszedł do ziemi Filistyńskiej, aby zwątpił o mnie Saul, i nie szukał mię więcej po wszystkich granicach Izraelskich, i tak abym uszedł rąk jego?

Uwspółcześniona Biblia Gdańska
Dawid jednak powiedział sobie w sercu: Któregoś dnia zginę z ręki Saula. Nie ma dla mnie nic lepszego, niż bym uszedł szybko do ziemi Filistynów. Wtedy Saul będzie zrozpaczony szukaniem mnie po wszystkich granicach Izraela. I tak ujdę z jego rąk.

Biblia Warszawska
A Dawid rozważał w swoim sercu: Tak jak rzeczy stoją, zginę któregoś dnia z ręki Saula; toteż najlepiej będzie dla mnie, jeżeli schronię się do ziemi Filistyńczyków. Wtedy Saul zaniecha mnie i przestanie mnie tropić po całej krainie izraelskiej, i tak ujdę jego ręki.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And David said in his heart,.... Within himself, and to himself; while he was pondering things in his own mind, and considering the circumstances in which he was, and things appearing, very gloomy to him, he falls into a fit of unbelief and thus addresses himself:

I shall now one day perish by the hand of Saul; for though he was returned to his place, he knew he was restless and uneasy, very inconstant and unstable, and not at all to be depended on; yea, he might conclude that Saul, observing that God was with him in protecting and defending him, and by delivering him into his hands once and again, he would be the more jealous of him, and envious at him, and seek all opportunities and advantages against him; and he feared that one time or another such would offer, and would be taken, and so he should perish by him: this was a strange fit of unbelief he was sunk into, and very unaccountable and unreasonable it was, had he but considered his being anointed king by the Lord, the promise of God to him, which could not fail, and the providence of God that watched over him from time to time:

[there is] nothing better for me than that I should speedily escape into the land of the Philistines; which may seem strange, when he was advised by the Prophet Gad to depart from the land of Moab, and go into the land of Judah, 1 Samuel 22:5, and where he had been so wonderfully preserved; and when he was in so much danger, when in the land of the Philistines before, insomuch that he was obliged to feign himself mad, 1 Samuel 21:13; and seeing this also was the very thing he lately dreaded, and cursed the men that should be the cause of his going out of his own land into an idolatrous one:

and Saul shall despair of me, to seek me any more in any coast of Israel; hearing that he was gone into a foreign country, would seek for him no more in any part of the land of israel, and so despair of ever getting him into his hands, would lay aside all thoughts about him for the future:

so shall I escape out of his hand; and be for ever safe: these were the carnal reasonings of his mind, under the prevalence of unbelief; and shows what poor weak creatures the best of men are, and how low their graces may sink as to exercise, when left to themselves.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXVII

David flies to Achish, king of Gath, who receives him kindly,

and gives him Ziklag to dwell in, where he continues a year

and four months, 1-7.

David invades the Geshurites and Amalekites, and leaves neither

man nor woman alive, 8, 9.

He returns to Achish, and pretends that he had been making

inroads on the Israelites, and Achish believes it, 10-12.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXVII

Verse 1 Samuel 27:1. I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul — This was a very hasty conclusion: God had so often interposed in behalf of his life, that he was authorized to believe the reverse. God had hitherto confounded all Saul's stratagems, and it was not at all likely that he would now abandon him: there was now no additional reason why he should withdraw from David his helping hand.
