SEV Biblia, Chapter 26:25
Y Saúl dijo a David: Bendito eres tú, hijo mío David; sin duda ejecutarás tú grandes empresas , y prevalecerás. Entonces David se fue su camino, y Saúl se volvió a su lugar.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Samuel 26:25
Verse 25. Thou shalt both do great things, and also shalt still prevail.] The Hebrew is lkwt lky µgw hŤ[t hŤ[ µg gam asoh thaaseh, vegam yachol tuchal; "Also in doing thou shalt do, and being able thou shalt be able; which the Targum translates, also in reigning thou shalt reign, and in prospering thou shalt prosper; which in all probability is the meaning. There is a vast deal of dignity in this speech of David, arising from a consciousness of his own innocence. He neither begs his life from Saul, nor offers one argument to prevail upon him to desist from his felonious attempts, but refers the whole matter to God, as the judge and vindicator of oppressed innocence. Saul himself is speechless, except in the simple acknowledgment of his sin; and in the behalf of their king not one of his officers has one word to say! It is strange that none of them offered now to injure the person of David; but they saw that he was most evidently under the guardian care of God, and that their master was apparently abandoned by him. Saul invites David to return, but David knew the uncertainty of Saul's character too well to trust himself in the power of this infatuated king. How foolish are the counsels of men against God! When he undertakes to save, who can destroy? And who can deliver out of his hands?
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 25. Then Saul said to David, blessed [be] thou, my son David , etc.] He desired God to bless him, and pronounced him blessed himself, believing he would be a happy and prosperous man: thou shall both do great [things] ; he had done great things already, in slaying Goliath, obtaining victories over the Philistines, and escaping the hands of Saul, and keeping out of them with so small a force; and he should do greater things yet: and also shalt still prevail ; against Saul and all his enemies; the Targum is, “even in reigning thou shalt reign, and even in prospering thou shalt prosper;” he believed he would be king, so he had said before, ( 1 Samuel 24:20); so David went on his way : to the wilderness again very probably, putting no trust and confidence in Saul, knowing how fickle and unstable he was: and Saul returned to his place ; to Gibeah, where his palace was.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 21-25 - Saul repeated his good words and good wishes. But he showed no evidenc of true repentance towards God. David and Saul parted to meet no more No reconciliation among men is firm, which is not founded in a cemented by peace with God through Jesus Christ. In sinning agains God, men play the fool, and err exceedingly. Many obtain a passing vie of these truths, who hate and close their eyes against the light. Fai professions do not entitle those to confidence who have long sinne against the light, yet the confessions of obstinate sinners may satisf us that we are in the right way, and encourage us to persevere expecting our recompence from the Lord alone __________________________________________________________________
