YLT Traducción literal de Young WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos) 1 And David saith unto his heart, 'Now am I consumed one day by the hand of Saul; there is nothing for me better than that I diligently escape unto the land of the Philistines, and Saul hath been despairing of me — of seeking me any more in all the border of Israel, and I have escaped out of his hand.' 1 David said in his heart, “I will now perish one day by the hand of Saul.

So I will escape out of his hand.”
