English Standard Version
5 The king answered and said to (A)the Chaldeans, “The word from me is firm: if you do not make known to me the dream and its interpretation, you shall be (B)torn limb from limb, (C)and your (D)houses shall be laid in ruins. 6 But if you show the dream and its interpretation, (E)you shall receive from me gifts and rewards and great honor. (F)Therefore show me the dream and its interpretation.” 7 They answered a second time and said, “Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will show its interpretation.” 8 The king answered and said, “I know with certainty that you are trying to (G)gain time, because you see that the word from me is firm— 9 if you do not make the dream known to me, (H)there is but one sentence for you. You have agreed to speak lying and corrupt words before me till (I)the times change. (J)Therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that you can show me its interpretation.” 10 (K)The Chaldeans answered the king and said, “There is not a man on earth who can meet the king's demand, for no great and powerful king has asked such a thing of any magician or enchanter or (L)Chaldean. 11 The thing that the king asks is difficult, and no one can show it to the king except (M)the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.”

11 Then the king sent to summon Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests who were at Nob, and all of them came to the king. 12 And Saul said, “Hear now, son of Ahitub.” And he answered, “Here I am, my lord.” 13 And Saul said to him, “Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of Jesse, in that you have given him bread and a sword and (A)have inquired of God for him, so that he has risen against me, (B)to lie in wait, as at this day?” 14 Then Ahimelech answered the king, “And who among all your servants is so faithful as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and captain over[a] your bodyguard, and honored in your house? 15 Is today the first time (C)that I have inquired of God for him? No! Let not the king impute anything to his servant or to all the house of my father, for your servant has known nothing of all this, (D)much or little.” 16 And the king said, “You shall surely die, Ahimelech, you and all your father's house.” 17 And the king said to (E)the guard who stood about him, “Turn and kill the priests of the Lord, because their hand also is with David, and they knew that he fled and did not disclose it to me.” But the servants of the king would not put out their hand to strike the priests of the Lord. 18 Then the king said to Doeg, “You turn and strike the priests.” And Doeg the Edomite turned and struck down the priests, (F)and he killed on that day eighty-five persons who wore the linen ephod. 19 And Nob, the city of the priests, he put to the sword; (G)both man and woman, child and infant, ox, donkey and sheep, he put to the sword.
