1 Samuel 22:8

8 que todos vosotros habéis conspirado contra mí, y no hay quien me descubra al oído cómo mi hijo ha hecho alianza con el hijo de Jessé, ni hay alguno de vosotros que se duela de mí, y me descubra cómo mi hijo ha despertado a mi siervo contra mí, para que me aceche, según hace hoy día

1 Samuel 22:8 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 22:8

That all of you have conspired against me
For though they had not revolted from him, and been guilty of overt acts of treason, yet since they did not discover to him what he supposed they knew, and showed no concern for the circumstances in which he was, he interpreted this a conspiracy against him:

and [there is] none that showeth me that my son hath made a league with
the son of Jesse;
Saul did not know this certainly, he only suspected it from the strict and close friendship between them, and imagined that some of his servants were acquainted with it, though they kept it from him; whereas none knew of it but Jonathan and David themselves:

and [there is] none of you that is sorry for me;
concerned, troubled, and grieved, that he should be in such circumstances, his own son and his son-in-law in league against him: or, as De Dieu renders it, were not "solicitous" for him, cared not how things went with him, or, against him:

or showeth unto me that my son hath stirred up my servant against me
to lie in wait, as at this day?
which he concluded was the case, from Jonathan's not appearing at court since Saul cast the javelin at him, ( 1 Samuel 19:10 ) ( 20:33 ) ; or, however, if he did, his countenance showed he was uneasy and discontented, and displeased with Saul; and, besides, he could not think that David, with such a handful of men he had with him, would ever attempt to invade his kingdom, and seize his crown and throne, unless he was privately encouraged by his own son; and David's being either in the cave of Adullam, or forest of Hareth, whichever of them Saul heard of, he interpreted as lying in wait for him, whereas it was only for the security of himself; and what Saul took ill of his servants was, that none of them apprized him of his son's concern in this matter.

1 Samuel 22:8 In-Context

6 Y oyó Saúl como había aparecido David, y los que estaban con él. Estaba entonces Saúl en Gabaa debajo de un árbol en Ramá, y tenía su lanza en su mano, y todos sus criados estaban en derredor de él
7 Y dijo Saúl a sus criados que estaban en derredor de él: Oíd ahora, hijos de Jemini: ¿Os dará también a todos vosotros el hijo de Jessé tierras y viñas, y os hará a todos vosotros capitanes de mil y de cien
8 que todos vosotros habéis conspirado contra mí, y no hay quien me descubra al oído cómo mi hijo ha hecho alianza con el hijo de Jessé, ni hay alguno de vosotros que se duela de mí, y me descubra cómo mi hijo ha despertado a mi siervo contra mí, para que me aceche, según hace hoy día
9 Entonces Doeg idumeo, que era señor entre los siervos de Saúl, respondió y dijo: Yo vi al hijo de Jessé que vino a Nob, a Ahimelec hijo de Ahitob
10 el cual consultó por él al SEÑOR, y le dio provisión, y también le dio la espada de Goliat el filisteo
