And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of musick.

Verse 6 is found in chapter 18 of 1 Samuel. After the victory, Jonathan establishes a covenant of friendship with David and gives him elements of his own clothing and weapons. The action expresses deep identification with David and anticipates Jonathan’s later willingness to protect him. At the same time, Saul begins to feel jealous when the women celebrate David’s victories. The same victory produces opposite responses within the royal household: friendship and recognition in Jonathan, fear and hostility in Saul.

Y aconteció que como volvían ellos, cuando David tornó de matar al Filisteo, salieron las mujeres de todas las ciudades de Israel cantando, y con danzas, con tamboriles, y con alegrías y sonajas, a recibir al rey Saúl.
Cuando regresaban, después de que David mató al filisteo, las mujeres salieron de todas las ciudades de Israel para recibir al rey Saúl con cantos y danzas, con panderos, alegría e instrumentos musicales.
Comme ils revenaient, lors du retour de David après qu'il eut tué le Philistin, les femmes sortirent de toutes les villes d'Israël au-devant du roi Saül, en chantant et en dansant, au son des tambourins et des triangles, et en poussant des cris de joie.
Or avvenne che, come essi venivano, ritornando Davide da pecuotere il Filisteo, le donne uscirono fuori di tutte le città d’Israele, cantando, e menando danze incontro al re Saulle con tamburi, con allegrezza, e con canti di trionfo.
Sucedeu, porém, que, vindo eles, quando Davi voltava de ferir os filisteus, as mulheres de todas as cidades de Israel saíram ao encontro do rei Saul, cantando e dançando, com adufes, com alegria, e com instrumentos de música.
大衛 打死了那 非利士 人,同眾人回來的時候,婦女們從 以色列 各城裏出來,歡歡喜喜,打鼓奏樂,唱歌跳舞,迎接 掃羅 王。
