David Rex

David1 vir nobilis et fortis, sicut scitis, rex erat Israelitarum.2 Israelitae2 autem bellum cum
Philisthinis3 gerebant ne agri sui ab eis occuparentur. Philisthini3 autem Bethlehem4 tenebant.

Castra enim ibi posuerant. David cum parva hominum manu erat in praesidio et non longe ab

eorum castris afuit. Praesidium ibi collocatum erat ut David et suos defenderet et cognosceret

quae ab hostibus gererentur.

In castris autem Israelitarum2 erat magna aquae inopia. Propter id magnum dolorem et

David et milites sustinebant. In Bethlehem autem, quod a Philisthinis tenebatur, erat aquae copia.
Itaque David, Si haberem,5 inquit, aquam de6 cisterna7 quae est in Bethlehem!

Cum vero ea a militibus audita essent, tres8 fortes viri clam ad castra hostium pervenerunt ut

aquam ad regem portarent. Magnum erat periculum, tamen a custodibus hostium visi non sunt.

Itaque aquam ad regem tuti portaverunt et ei dederunt.

continued

Rex vero, cum aquam vidisset, eorum virtute et amicitia vehementer motus est. Per loca enim

periculorum plena in castra hostium pervenerunt ut ad eum aqua portaretur. Scivit rex quanto in
periculo propter se fuissent. Itaque eis gratias egit sed aquam in terram Domino libavit. 9
