Then Saul said unto his servants that stood about him, Hear now, ye Benjamites; will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds;
Entonces Saúl dijo a sus siervos que estaban parados alrededor de él: 'Escuchen, hombres de Benjamín. ¿Acaso creen que David, el hijo de Isaí, les dará a cada uno de ustedes campos y viñedos? ¿Creen que los hará comandantes de miles y cientos de soldados?'
Saúl trató de mantener la lealtad de sus hombres sugiriendo que David no les daría las mismas recompensas que él.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This occurs during the period when Saul's jealousy toward David had reached dangerous levels, and David was living as a fugitive. Saul is speaking to his court officials, many of whom were from his own tribe of Benjamin, trying to maintain their loyalty by suggesting David would not reward them as generously as Saul had. Ancient Near Eastern kings often rewarded loyalty with land grants and military positions.
