Now therefore, let not my blood fall to the earth away from the presence of Jehovah: for the king of Israel is come out to seek a flea, as when one doth hunt a partridge in the mountains.

Then do not let my blood be drained out on the earth away from the face of the Lord: for the king of Israel has come out to take my life, like one going after birds in the mountains.

τωρα λοιπον, ας μη πεση το αιμα μου εις την γην ενωπιον του Κυριου· διοτι εξηλθεν ο βασιλευς του Ισραηλ να ζητηση ενα ψυλλον, ως οταν καταδιωκη τις περδικα εις τα ορη.

Now therefore, let not my blood fall to the earth before the face of the Lord: for the king of Israel is come out to seek a flea, as when one doth hunt a partridge in the mountains.
