And David said to him, Canst thou bring me down to this company? And he said, Swear unto me by God, that thou wilt neither kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee down to this company.

Verse 15 is found in chapter 30 of 1 Samuel. David consults the Lord through Abiathar and receives authorization to pursue the Amalekites. An Egyptian slave abandoned by his former masters provides decisive information about the enemy’s location. David treats the man mercifully and receives crucial assistance in return. The narrative combines providence and human action: David consults God but also uses concrete resources, alliances, and information obtained along the way.

David sprach zu ihm: Willst du mich hinführen zu diesen Kriegsleuten? Er sprach: Schwöre mir bei Gott, daß du mich nicht tötest noch in meines Herrn Hand überantwortest, so will ich dich hinabführen zu diesen Kriegsleuten.
Y díjole David: ¿Me llevarás tú a esa tropa? Y él dijo: Hazme juramento por Dios que no me matarás, ni me entregarás en las manos de mi amo, y yo te llevaré a esa gente.
David le preguntó: «¿Me llevarás hasta esa banda?». Él respondió: «Júrame por Dios que no me matarás ni me entregarás en manos de mi señor, y te llevaré hasta esa banda».
David lui dit: Veux-tu me faire descendre vers cette troupe? Et il répondit: Jure-moi par le nom de Dieu que tu ne me tueras pas et que tu ne me livreras pas à mon maître, et je te ferai descendre vers cette troupe.
E Davide gli disse: Mi condurresti tu a quegli scherani? Ed egli gli disse: Giurami per Iddio che tu non mi farai morire, e che tu non mi darai in mano del mio padrone, ed io ti condurrò a quegli scherani.
E disse-lhe Davi: Poderias, descendo, guiar-me a essa tropa? E disse-lhe: Por Deus jura-me que não me matarás, nem me entregarás na mão de meu senhor, e, descendo, te guiarei a essa tropa.
