1 Samuel 26:5 in Context — 1 Samuel 26
3 Il campa sur la colline de Hakila, en face du désert, près du chemin. David était dans le désert; et s’étant aperçu que Saül marchait à sa poursuite au désert,
4 il envoya des espions, et apprit avec certitude que Saül était arrivé.
5 Alors David se leva et vint au lieu où Saül était campé, et il vit la place où couchait Saül, avec Abner, fils de Ner, chef de son armée. Saül couchait au milieu du camp, et le peuple campait autour de lui.
6 David prit la parole, et s’adressant à Achimélec, Héthien, et à Abischaï, fils de Tseruja et frère de Joab, il dit: Qui veut descendre avec moi dans le camp vers Saül? Et Abischaï répondit: Moi, je descendrai avec toi.
7 David et Abischaï allèrent de nuit vers le peuple. Et voici, Saül était couché et dormait au milieu du camp, et sa lance était fixée en terre à son chevet. Abner et le peuple étaient couchés autour de lui.
