Translations
David had been saying to himself: It was completely pointless that I protected everything this man owned out in the wilderness — not one thing of his went missing. And this is how he repays me — evil for good!
Now Dawid had said: It was surely in vain that I guarded all that this fellow has in the wilderness — nothing went missing from all that belongs to him. And he has returned evil to me for good!
Now David had said, Surely in vain have I kept all that this fellow hath in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained unto him: and he hath requited me evil for good.
Now David had just said, “In vain I have protected all that belonged to this man in the wilderness. Nothing that belongs to him has gone missing, yet he has paid me back evil for good.
