1 Samuel 21:5 in Context — 1 Samuel 21
3 Ahora pues, ¿qué tienes á mano? dame cinco panes, ó lo que se hallare.
4 Y el sacerdote respondió á David, y dijo: No tengo pan común á la mano; solamente tengo pan sagrado: mas [lo daré] si los criados se han guardado mayormente de mujeres.
5 Y David respondió al sacerdote, y díjole: Cierto las mujeres nos han sido reservadas desde anteayer cuando salí, y los vasos de los mozos fueron santos, aunque el camino es profano: cuanto más que hoy habrá [otro pan] santificado en los vasos.
6 Así el sacerdote le dió [el pan] sagrado, porque allí no había otro pan que los panes de la proposición, los cuales habían sido quitados de delante de Jehová, para que se pusiesen panes calientes el día que [los otros] fueron quitados.
7 Aquel día estaba allí uno de los siervos de Saúl detenido delante de Jehová, el nombre del cual era Doeg, Idumeo, principal de los pastores de Saúl.
