1 Samuel 18:5 in Context — 1 Samuel 18
3 E hicieron alianza Jonathán y David, porque él le amaba como á su alma.
4 Y Jonathán se desnudó la ropa que tenía sobre sí, y dióla á David, [y otras] ropas suyas, hasta su espada, y su arco, y su talabarte.
5 Y salía David á donde quiera que Saúl le enviaba, y portábase prudentemente. Hízolo por tanto Saúl capitán de gente de guerra, y era acepto en los ojos de todo el pueblo, y en los ojos de los criados de Saúl.
6 Y aconteció que como volvían ellos, cuando David tornó de matar al Filisteo, salieron las mujeres de todas las ciudades de Israel cantando, y con danzas, con tamboriles, y con alegrías y sonajas, á recibir al rey Saúl.
7 Y cantaban las mujeres que danzaba, y decían: Saúl hirió sus miles, y David sus diez miles.
