00:02:00♪

00:02:04And it came to pass that Israel was smitten in battle,

00:02:07and the sacred Ark of the Covenant was taken by the Philistines.

00:02:11Therefore did the people of Israel believe that God had forsaken them.

00:02:15For lo, these many years had passed,

00:02:17since the prophet Samuel had anointed Saul to be their king.

00:02:21But the Spirit of the Lord had departed from Saul.

00:02:25Now once again the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle,

00:02:2830,000 chariots and 6,000 horsemen,

00:02:32and put soldiers in multitude as the sands of the desert.

00:02:35Whilst in Israel were neither swords nor spears, only plowshares.

00:02:42♪

00:03:09Who is he?

00:03:11He is Samuel, the prophet.

00:03:13That old man in tattered rags is Samuel?

00:03:15He is the only man of whom Saul is afraid.

00:03:18♪

00:03:25Your Majesty, the prophet Samuel is coming into the court.

00:03:29♪

00:03:44♪

00:04:05Samuel, there has been a stranger to our court.

00:04:11We bid thee welcome.

00:04:16Who is that man?

00:04:18Thou knowest not the young captain of the host.

00:04:20His name is Abner.

00:04:22Saul hath him as his counselor at court.

00:04:26And these are they the sons of Saul then?

00:04:29Jonathan, Ishvi, Ishbosheth.

00:04:33His sons.

00:04:37His sons.

00:04:40When I grew old, I made my sons judges.

00:04:44For I had judged Israel all the days of my life.

00:04:49But my sons would not walk in God's ways,

00:04:54but took bribes for prejudiced judgment.

00:04:57And then the elders of Israel came to me,

00:05:02and ye did say unto me,

00:05:04Give us a king to judge us, like all the nations.

00:05:08A king.

00:05:09Father.

00:05:10And I prayed to the Lord.

00:05:12And he said,

00:05:14The people of Israel have not rejected thee,

00:05:18but have rejected me, the Lord God.

00:05:21They have forsaken me and served other gods.

00:05:25So they do also unto thee, Samuel.

00:05:29How therefore must they have a king to reign over them?

00:05:34Yea.

00:05:35So spake the Lord to me in the darkness of my heart.

00:05:39And I told his words to all of ye who ask to me a king.

00:05:44And I said to ye,

00:05:45This king will take your sons

00:05:48and appoint them for himself and his chariots.

00:05:51And he will set them to reap his harvest

00:05:54and to make his instruments of war.

00:05:56And he will take your fields and your vineyards

00:05:59and give them to his servants.

00:06:01And ye shall all cry out on that day,

00:06:05Because of your king.

00:06:08But ye would not hear me.

00:06:11Nay, nay, he said to me, nay.

00:06:14But we will have a king like all the nations.

00:06:17A king to judge us and to fight our battles.

00:06:22The Lord told me in my ear,

00:06:26I will send thee a man out of the land of Benjamin.

00:06:32And thou shalt anoint him king over thy people Israel,

00:06:36that he shall save them out of the hands of the Philistines.

00:06:42Saul, when I saw thee,

00:06:48the Lord said unto me,

00:06:52Behold the man who shall reign over my people.

00:07:13Samuel,

00:07:17of all in Israel,

00:07:19thou art beloved of the Lord.

00:07:22We...

00:07:27We...

00:07:29We honor Samuel, of course.

00:07:32But the last of the great judges of Israel

00:07:34hath not called out the whole court of the kingdom

00:07:37only to tell us the old story that all of us know so well.

00:07:41Saul, I will tell thee what thou dost not know.

00:07:45I will tell thee what the Lord said to me last night.

00:07:54Leave us.

00:08:16Speak.

00:08:20The glory of Israel is departed

00:08:23for the ark of God is taken.

00:08:31The glory of Israel is taken.

00:08:35The glory of Israel is taken.

00:08:39The glory of Israel is taken.

00:08:46In all of my kingdom, Samuel,

00:08:49everyone is aware that the ark of the covenant

00:08:53is in the hands of the enemy.

00:08:55This was a needful sacrifice

00:08:57not to be avoided in making our peace with the Philistines.

00:09:01Saul, when the ark was taken from thee,

00:09:05the Lord hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee on that day.

00:09:10Pay no heed to him, sir.

00:09:12Pay no heed to him, sir.

00:09:14Samuel is old beyond the years of wit.

00:09:16Old indeed.

00:09:18Near to death, Saul.

00:09:20Yet last night the word of the Lord came to me again.

00:09:27Leave us.

00:09:35Samuel,

00:09:38what said the Lord unto thee?

00:09:41The Lord said,

00:09:43It repenteth me that Saul is king.

00:09:47I, for he hath turned back from following me

00:09:51and hath broken my commandments.

00:09:54Thus spake the Lord, and it grieved me.

00:09:57And I cried to the Lord all night.

00:09:59And when he answered me, he said,

00:10:02How long wilt thou mourn Saul,

00:10:06seeing that I have rejected him from reigning over Israel?

00:10:24Am I not king?

00:10:29Look with thine eyes, Samuel.

00:10:32Do I not sit here before thee?

00:10:34On the throne of Israel.

00:10:36The Lord hath said,

00:10:39I have provided me a king.

00:10:44Another.

00:10:46Thou wert a goodly young man, Saul.

00:10:50There was not among all the children in Israel a goodlier person than thou.

00:10:57When thou wert little in thine own eyes,

00:11:00did I not make thee head of the tribes of Israel?

00:11:04And did not the Lord anoint thee to be king?

00:11:08Why then didst thou do evil with thy sacrifices?

00:11:13I have obeyed the laws.

00:11:16I have followed the ritual.

00:11:18Thou art a rebel in thine heart, Saul.

00:11:21Thou hast made an insurrection against God

00:11:24because thou hast rejected the Lord.

00:11:27He hath also rejected thee from being king.

00:11:34Samuel, if I have sinned,

00:11:39if I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord,

00:11:45and thy words,

00:11:49it is because I fear the people.

00:11:54And obey their voice.

00:11:57Samuel.

00:12:05Who is he?

00:12:09Who is that man who shall be king in Israel after me?

00:12:14The Lord said to me,

00:12:17Look not upon his height,

00:12:21for the Lord seeth not as men seeth.

00:12:26One pure in heart.

00:12:30Who is he?

00:12:33Ere I die, it hath been given to me to anoint one king

00:12:39who shall be chosen from Bethlehem.

00:12:42And the spirit of the Lord shall be upon him from that day forward.

00:12:52Who is that man?

00:12:55I have not come to thee with prophecies but to bid thee farewell.

00:13:00The Lord hath departed from thee.

00:13:04An evil spirit hath made its home in thee.

00:13:09I shall come no more to thee, Saul.

00:13:12And nevertheless,

00:13:15I mourn for thee.

00:13:19I mourn for thee.

00:13:22David!

00:13:48David!

00:13:52Wonderful, David!

00:13:53Eglah!

00:13:55Eglah!

00:14:05I have been awaiting thee, Eglah.

00:14:09The lastborn, does he please thee?

00:14:12Ay, he is beautiful.

00:14:15Make him walk.

00:14:16No, he is too little.

00:14:17Oh, come now, let's put him down.

00:14:19Oh, no, David, does not think he is grown enough for that.

00:14:22Now, now, see how he walks.

00:14:23Look, he goes to his mother.

00:14:24He is very funny.

00:14:29Look at him.

00:14:33Come, Eglah.

00:14:34Close thy eyes.

00:14:36Why?

00:14:37Now, David, no question.

00:14:43Open them.

00:14:45Oh!

00:14:47Tis beautiful, Eglah.

00:14:48I am in need of this.

00:14:50I thank thee.

00:14:51I must try it right away.

00:14:53Stay here and watch, Eglah.

00:14:59Eglah, why art thou sad now?

00:15:02I had a very bad dream.

00:15:04Oh, thou shouldst not think of it.

00:15:06Do not laugh, David.

00:15:07I dreamed that I had been taken far from thee, very far.

00:15:12No one could ever separate us, beloved.

00:15:15I would that what thou sayest were true, but...

00:15:17Eglah, thou shouldst trust me.

00:15:20The same way that...

00:15:22The same way that I trust my sling.

00:15:24Watch this.

00:15:26If I do not smite that tree, thy bad dream will come true.

00:15:32No, wait.

00:15:33David, I am so afraid.

00:15:41Why art thou afraid?

00:15:42I am here with thee.

00:15:45Come.

00:16:03Thine eyes frighten me sometimes, my love.

00:16:06But were they otherwise, then perhaps I would not love thee as I do.

00:16:11Dost thou love me truly?

00:16:13Ask, Mirab.

00:16:17Please forgive me, Abner.

00:16:19Oftentimes I think that the advantages of courting a king's daughter...

00:16:24might well be the only source of thy feeling.

00:16:33It will not be easy to carry out our plans...

00:16:36if thou art assailed by such doubts, Mirab.

00:16:44I love thee, Abner.

00:16:46I shall help thee till thou hast realized thine ambitions.

00:16:49Our ambitions.

00:16:51Nevertheless, it will be an arduous undertaking.

00:16:53But not for the captain of the host of Israel and for the daughter of Saul.

00:16:57There will be many hindrances.

00:17:00From thy brethren...

00:17:02They will not be difficult, I am certain, Abner.

00:17:04As for my father, be thou not fearful about him.

00:17:07The quick victory of the Philistines was indeed a terrible blow to him.

00:17:11I, with my great host, shall pass over the land of Saul.

00:17:16The land of Saul.

00:17:19Our last victory over Israel was not complete...

00:17:22because I did not slaughter that old imbecile.

00:17:26But our new invasion will be the end of Saul...

00:17:29and thou, Gothar, shall be the new king of Israel.

00:17:32Remember when old Saul was my captive?

00:17:36It was thee who asked me to spare his life.

00:17:39What did we keep as our spoil?

00:17:43The sacred ark.

00:17:47But now...

00:17:49I want much more than that.

00:17:57Now I will have old Saul's blood.

00:18:00Abner.

00:18:07Each one of ye shall rule over the land ye will have conquered.

00:18:12Yea, as kings.

00:18:16As monarchs, governing by our laws and rituals...

00:18:20ye shall command absolute obedience...

00:18:23receive tribute and pass judgment.

00:18:26Yet none of ye shall ever forget...

00:18:29I shall remain your king.

00:18:39The king of kings.

00:18:59These few days have passed so swiftly, David.

00:19:02My turn to plow will pass swiftly, too.

00:19:05Thou wilt think of Agla?

00:19:07Thou ask'st me that.

00:19:09I shall be without thee for so long.

00:19:13Art thou afraid?

00:19:15No, David, with thee not.

00:19:17And in a storm, if I were not with thee?

00:19:20I should be afraid.

00:19:22But I should run to thee wherever I were.

00:19:24Truly?

00:19:25Ay, Agla, truly.

00:19:26And if it were raining very hard?

00:19:28It would be another flood.

00:19:29Thou art so kind to me, David.

00:19:41But David, I must go now.

00:19:43Please, Agla, wait here. It rains still.

00:19:45I must not tarry. Tis late.

00:19:47Don't go.

00:19:56Agla!

00:19:58Agla!

00:20:06Why, Lord?

00:20:08Why, my Lord?

00:20:15No, thy hope is a vain one, father.

00:20:18I know better what I do than one who attacks innocence...

00:20:21and slays it without just cause.

00:20:23David, the Lord alone knows the scope of his own deeds on earth.

00:20:27And there remains naught else for us to do save yield to his will.

00:20:31But the death of my Agla.

00:20:33This hath destroyed my life, father.

00:20:37God, by this deed, hath only destroyed thy mortal love, David.

00:20:42But he hath also rendered thy love more beautiful...

00:20:45for he makes of it a spiritual thing.

00:20:47Thou shalt love another time, thou shalt see.

00:20:51And then this will indeed comfort thee.

00:20:53It will comfort thee to think of Agla.

00:20:56Pardon me, father.

00:20:58Tis of the Lord that thou shouldst ask pardon, not of me.

00:21:02And I pray to the Lord that he will give thee pardon.

00:21:16King, the agility and power of the Persian chariots have inspired this model.

00:21:21The chariot is drawn by four horses...

00:21:24and is entirely armored with leather and bronze.

00:21:27Here and here.

00:21:29These lances will revolve like so many sides...

00:21:32and wreak havoc in the enemy infantry.

00:21:36Then thou think'st we are invincible.

00:21:38Oh, there is no question, my lord.

00:21:41But the most powerful weapon that I know is an enormous man.

00:21:45One whom nature has endowed with the power of the sun.

00:21:49One whom nature has endowed with inhuman strength.

00:21:52He is not like other men.

00:21:54He dwelleth in the caves beyond the town of Gab...

00:21:57refusing all commerce with the world.

00:21:59A human weapon that would sow fearsome panic in the enemy ranks.

00:22:04When he is unleashed, he cannot be stopped.

00:22:07And who is this man?

00:22:09His name is Goliath.

00:22:13Who is able to enroll such a monster in my ranks?

00:22:16A petty cut purse. A rascal named Creth.

00:22:19He is waking without, my lord.

00:22:22Show him in.

00:22:25GOLIATH

00:22:43Glory to thee, O king of the Philistines.

00:22:46Art thou, Creth?

00:22:48Ay, O flaming torch of my life.

00:22:50Flaming paragon of all our virtues.

00:22:53Thou art the most powerful, the most generous, and the most...

00:22:56Enough!

00:22:58Dost thou know Goliath?

00:23:00He's my friend. He does all that I bid him do.

00:23:02I want thee to bring him here.

00:23:05Bring him to the feast of the god Dagon.

00:23:08If he is as my captain says, I shall give thee thy weight in gold.

00:23:13Oh, but I'm very heavy.

00:23:16As heavy as a camel.

00:23:19Out with him!

00:23:23GOLIATH

00:23:53Goliath!

00:24:03Goliath!

00:24:08Goliath, where art thou?

00:24:17Goliath!

00:24:23Goliath! It's Creth!

00:24:26Thy friend, Creth!

00:24:31There!

00:24:33Where?

00:24:47What dost thou want, Creth?

00:24:51My brother and friend! Friend and brother!

00:24:55At last I see thee again after all these months.

00:24:58Greetings to thee, Goliath, from my humble servant.

00:25:01How many times I have thought of thee.

00:25:04I have jealously cherished in my soul the recollection of thy affection for me.

00:25:08And now, at long last, I stand before thee.

00:25:11Now I can greet thee as the flaming paragon of my life.

00:25:15The only comfort of my tormented existence.

00:25:18The shining guide of my wretched fate.

00:25:21Oh, how can I thank thee, Goliath?

00:25:24But first of all, allow thy slave to pay tribute to thee with a tiny word of modest praise.

00:25:29Thou art invincible, Goliath.

00:25:31Everyone knows thou art the strongest man in the world.

00:25:34No, no, no, no! Please!

00:25:36No, don't kill me!

00:25:38Don't snuff out the wretched existence of thy only friend.

00:25:42Have I not always brought thee gold?

00:25:44And wait till thou seest the gold thou wilt get this time.

00:25:47Enough to fill thy cave.

00:25:56Thou wilt always be my best friend, Goliath.

00:25:59But I'd better tell thee the reason why I came here to see thee.

00:26:05King Ashton sent me to see thee.

00:26:08He's mustering men for a great war.

00:26:11If thou agreest to fight for him, he will give thee all the gold thou desirest.

00:26:15Aye, and that's not all. There's more.

00:26:18There will also be the king's personal present to you.

00:26:22The most beautiful girls in Philistia.

00:26:24Say that thou wilt, Goliath. Thou must.

00:26:28The most beautiful girls!

00:26:41Whoa!

00:26:49Whoa!

00:26:56Whoa!

00:27:11Whoa!

00:27:41Whoa!

00:28:01O mighty king!

00:28:06I have brought thee, Goliath!

00:28:11I have brought thee, Goliath!

00:30:41THE END

00:30:57Bring the rock of Samson!

00:31:03Goliath, this stone has never been lifted aloft by one man

00:31:07since the distant days when Samson himself lifted it.

00:31:11This will be the true test of thy strength.

00:31:42Samson!

00:31:47Samson!

00:31:51Samson!

00:31:57Samson!

00:32:00Samson!

00:32:03Samson!

00:32:12Samson!

00:32:31And the Lord said unto Samuel,

00:32:33Fill thine horn with oil, and go.

00:32:36I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite.

00:32:39For I have provided me a king among his sons

00:32:42to save Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.

00:33:09Samuel!

00:33:11I greet thee, wife of Jesse.

00:33:15The Lord hath chosen one from amongst thy sons,

00:33:19and I am come to find him

00:33:22whom the Lord shall name unto me.

00:33:26This is Eliab, our firstborn son.

00:33:31The Lord said,

00:33:33Look unto me, and you shall see me.

00:33:37The Lord said,

00:33:39Look not upon his height, nor his countenance,

00:33:43for the Lord seeth not as man seeth.

00:33:47If the foreordained of the Lord is here,

00:33:49it could only be this one, Abinadab.

00:33:53Neither is he the one the Lord hath chosen,

00:34:01nor hath he chosen any of these.

00:34:08Thou art certain that thou hast here all the children of Jesse?

00:34:14Blessed be thou, Samuel.

00:34:16Jesse, thou hast here all thy children?

00:34:20David!

00:34:21I'll save my youngest son.

00:34:23Here he is, David.

00:34:25Here he is, David.

00:34:36Ay, this is he.

00:34:48David, son of Jesse,

00:34:52the Lord hath appointed thee to be prince over his inheritance.

00:35:07Thou art troubled in thy heart, David.

00:35:10I...

00:35:16It is true. I am troubled.

00:35:19It is written,

00:35:20Who knows what is good for a man in his life

00:35:23in all the days of his earthly life which he spendeth as a shadow?

00:35:27For who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?

00:35:32Ay, we know that thou art a prophet, Samuel.

00:35:35That which is hath been already,

00:35:38and everything to be hath already been.

00:35:42And God seeketh again that which is passed away.

00:35:47It is also written,

00:35:48Far better a poor but wise youth than an old and foolish king.

00:35:54If thou speakest thus about me, Samuel,

00:35:57it is true I am indeed poor, but wise.

00:36:01I shall come to thee again,

00:36:04for the Lord hath told me

00:36:07that I am to anoint thee king.

00:36:18Saidst thou, King Samuel?

00:36:21Ay, Jesse.

00:36:23It is not the son of Saul,

00:36:25but your son David who shall be called by God to reign as king in Israel.

00:36:31But of the great events which await thee in the future, David,

00:36:36thou must not ever speak to any man.

00:36:39These things must all be kept secret.

00:36:42Forget it not.

00:36:45Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy,

00:36:49for God hath already accepted thy works.

00:36:53The spirit of the Lord shall be upon thee from this day forward.

00:37:14The Spirit of the Lord shall be upon thee from this day forward.

00:37:44David!

00:38:15Sarah, what art thou doing here?

00:38:17Thou should sleep now.

00:38:18I could not.

00:38:19Shh!

00:38:20Art thou leaving?

00:38:22I am going now.

00:38:24Then I'll wake father and mother.

00:38:26Oh, no, Sarah, don't.

00:38:29No, please say farewell to them for me.

00:38:31But may I not come with thee?

00:38:34No, not now, Sarah.

00:38:36But I shall return soon.

00:38:39I shall wait.

00:38:41David!

00:38:42David!

00:38:48David!

00:38:49David!

00:39:00Thy will be done, O Lord.

00:39:03Thy servant hath left his loved ones

00:39:06that he may devote his life to serving his people Israel.

00:39:11May thy servant prove worthy of this mission with thy help.

00:39:30Many trials await thee, David,

00:39:33but with thy faith thou shalt be strong.

00:39:36Thy departure will in days to come bring great joy to thy loved ones.

00:39:41In three days and nights thou shalt have reached Jerusalem.

00:40:07O blind man, help me.

00:40:11Oh, have pity, have pity on me.

00:40:24The finest steaks in Israel.

00:40:27The most beautiful steaks in Israel.

00:40:30Two shackles, it will bring thee great fortune.

00:40:34Only two shackles.

00:40:38Greetings, shepherd, this way.

00:40:40I have three slaves for sale.

00:40:42Slaves from Moab, cheap at 30 shekels.

00:40:45In the fields they can pull plows better than oxen,

00:40:47but you can feed them for much less.

00:40:49They're cheap at 30 shekels.

00:40:52It's like giving them away.

00:40:54Ay, shepherd, what sayest thou?

00:40:59Ay, unyoke them quickly, give them to him.

00:41:04Go, you're free.

00:41:06Thou buy'st slaves to set them free, shepherd?

00:41:10And let none of ye touch them either.

00:41:14Thank you, kind lord.

00:41:16Thank you.

00:41:34Help! Help!

00:41:36Oh, help me! Help!

00:42:03Help!

00:42:34Water, water.

00:42:38Why are these men being punished?

00:42:40Because they had rebelled against Saul's captain.

00:42:43I have none more condemned to die in this place as first.

00:42:47They are my sons.

00:42:49In three days they have not had a drop of water.

00:42:52Why should they let them die like this?

00:42:55How can the Lord permit this?

00:43:03Water, water.

00:43:07Men, water.

00:43:10Look at that.

00:43:11Water, give me water.

00:43:16Oh, they will kill you.

00:43:17Let's go. Please, let's go.

00:43:19Drink, do not be afraid.

00:43:34Oh, oh, oh.

00:43:48Jerusalemites!

00:43:53Jerusalemites!

00:43:57Why are ye the curse of your own people?

00:43:59Ye are a prey to godlessness, wickedness and cowardice.

00:44:03Ye have trampled our laws underfoot

00:44:06and destroyed the foundations of our faith.

00:44:10Why? Why?

00:44:13The spirit of evil is in ye.

00:44:16But the spirit of evil is yet stronger in those who govern ye.

00:44:21Saul! Saul!

00:44:24Thou art to blame for it.

00:44:30Thy corruption and perverted ways of living

00:44:34have made thee an evil man

00:44:36and have destroyed the good life in us.

00:44:39Rise against the false liberties

00:44:42which the tyrants of Israel have given to ye.

00:44:45I say that ye will remain prisoners of your evil spirits

00:44:49if ye do not find in your hearts

00:44:52the strength to rebel and to redeem yourselves.

00:44:55Damned shall ye be that still remain in the bottomless chasm of sin.

00:45:05I come to arrest this man.

00:45:07This man is under our protection.

00:45:10Come, shepherd, into the house of God.

00:45:26The miserable shepherd.

00:45:30Telling the people to rise against their king.

00:45:35Father, thou shouldst not fret too much over all this

00:45:39nor exaggerate the importance of it.

00:45:41Exaggerate, thou sayest?

00:45:43Yes.

00:45:44A shepherd dares to accuse the king of Israel

00:45:47and moreover receives the protection of our own high priest in the house of God.

00:45:51Are we to attach no importance to this?

00:45:53Have you all forgot?

00:45:56Have you all so soon forgot

00:46:02the last prophecy of Samuel?

00:46:09For he did not speak of ye, my sons.

00:46:11He did not say of one of ye, not Ishbi, not Ishboseth,

00:46:14not even Jonathan.

00:46:18Ere I die, he said,

00:46:21he said,

00:46:24ere I die, it will be given to me to

00:46:29anoint one king.

00:46:30Your Majesty, when Samuel anointed thee king,

00:46:33the first to reign in Israel,

00:46:35he chose a warrior, a mighty man of arms.

00:46:38This David is a mere boy.

00:46:40I want him brought to me.

00:46:42But this is impossible, father.

00:46:44He's in the priest's care.

00:46:45Ay, the high priest's protective.

00:46:47Protective from what?

00:46:49I want this David brought to me.

00:46:52How shall we do it, father?

00:46:54By force?

00:46:55I have commanded you to do this.

00:46:56Sire, leave this matter to me.

00:46:57No, if I leave it to thee, Abner,

00:47:00how long thou shalt leave him with all the other thieves and criminals

00:47:06to feed the vultures and the royal orchards.

00:47:12Now, first I must see him alive.

00:47:18I would talk with this shepherd.

00:47:26Bring him to me.

00:47:34Ay, father may well be right.

00:47:37This young shepherd should have things of interest to tell us.

00:47:40What does thou think, Abner?

00:47:43What I may think is not thy concern.

00:47:46I apologize for having put a question to the captain of our host.

00:48:01There is far too much stirring among the people now.

00:48:04I would not have this David so more trouble in the soul of thy father,

00:48:07already vexed by the prophecy of Samuel.

00:48:10So thou too fears this David?

00:48:12I fear no man, Merab.

00:48:15But I am awroth at the evil spirit of these false prophets.

00:48:19Were I only king of Israel.

00:48:21And thou shalt be.

00:48:23Thou shalt sit on this throne one day.

00:48:45I tell thee it is no desire of mine to advocate rebellion against royal authority.

00:48:49I am not at odds with the laws of Israel.

00:48:52Nor the rule of my king.

00:48:54Dost thou suggest perhaps that it is no longer permissible to speak one's own mind?

00:48:58By stirring up the people thou hast gone against the supreme authority of Israel.

00:49:03I have seen vice and corruption rife everywhere.

00:49:06Wherefore I said that which I said.

00:49:08The insolence of this shepherd is an affront to the court.

00:49:11Oh, I think not, Merab.

00:49:13Has not David made clear the reasons why he behaved the way he did?

00:49:19I believe that we should hear David further.

00:49:22Unless, of course, it doth displease ye.

00:49:25I would have an opinion on one matter.

00:49:28From this wise shepherd.

00:49:30This is ridiculous.

00:49:31To seek the counsel of a shepherd.

00:49:33Indeed, one might as well seek the judgment of the people.

00:49:37This wretched shepherd is not here to judge us, but to be judged.

00:49:40As one of the respected counselors of Israel, Benjamin of Gaba is fully entitled to speak here.

00:49:45So if it please thee, thou shalt put thy question to David.

00:49:48I thank thee, Princess Macaw.

00:49:51There is one clause in the peace which we made with the Philistines.

00:49:56Putting a limit on the making of weapons.

00:49:58And stating that only our officers and palace guards may bear arms.

00:50:03David, son of Jesse, what thinkest thou of these limitations?

00:50:08My prince, to my mind, there is but one way to solve that riddle.

00:50:13It is shameful to ask a shepherd to solve riddles which concern only rulers.

00:50:18We will hear this, shepherd.

00:50:26Leave us.

00:50:28Leave us, I say.

00:50:38Leave us.

00:50:50Dost thou believe in omens?

00:50:54There above our heads sits the bird of night.

00:51:00That bird is an evil omen.

00:51:04David of Bethlehem.

00:51:09David of Bethlehem.

00:51:33David of Bethlehem.

00:51:39Almighty of hearts.

00:51:45Speak thou of our peace with the Philistines.

00:51:48Majesty, the treaty limits the use of weapons to the officers of our host and guards of the palace.

00:51:56It is true that only my officers and guards may bear weapons.

00:52:04So then?

00:52:06But the treaty has put no limit whatever on the number of officers and guards which thou mayest have.

00:52:23David, thou hast a sharp wit.

00:52:26I have heard much of thy sharp wit.

00:52:34Yet I cannot hate thee.

00:52:37Come.

00:52:40Come nearer to me.

00:52:43Come, David of Bethlehem.

00:52:50Drink.

00:52:52I am not thirsty, O king.

00:52:55Thou mayest choose either cup, and I will drink from the other.

00:53:00No.

00:53:02I will drink from both.

00:53:04They are not poisoned.

00:53:07I have sent out my servants to the markets and to the countryside.

00:53:13I have inquired about thee, David of Bethlehem.

00:53:16I hear thou art a wily hunter and have cunning hands for music.

00:53:23Wilt thou play for me, David?

00:53:26Wilt thou stay and sing my songs to make my spirit well again, David?

00:53:34I shall obey thee, O king.

00:53:37Thou shalt obey me.

00:53:39Aye.

00:53:41Thou shalt stay in my palace.

00:53:46Thou shalt remain with me, David of Bethlehem.

00:53:55THE END

00:54:25THE END

00:54:55Do you think that Michal might cause us vexation?

00:54:58Were David to fall in love with her, yes.

00:55:00Oh, I have a watchful eye, Abner.

00:55:03A cursed shepherd.

00:55:05And now the people praise him to the skies.

00:55:07Whilst he remains at court, our plans will surely be in danger.

00:55:10For some days it's been clear to me what David covets.

00:55:13What is that?

00:55:15The throne of Israel, Merab.

00:55:17Thou forget'st the prophecy of Samuel?

00:55:19The spell is already on thy sister, Michal, and on thy brethren.

00:55:22Not on me! Not on me, Merab!

00:55:23Calm thyself, Abner.

00:55:25Calm thyself, for thy apprehensions are excessive.

00:55:33Thou, Saul.

00:55:35Thou who wert the victorious hero of a hundred battles.

00:55:39Thou hast suffered thy first defeat.

00:55:43Why?

00:55:45Because thou art no longer the Saul of yesteryear.

00:55:48The Saul who was beloved of all the people of Israel.

00:55:50The Saul who was feared by his enemies.

00:55:54The Saul of whom my father Jesse so often spoke.

00:56:13Oh, Lord.

00:56:15Help him.

00:56:17Forsake him not.

00:56:18And defer that day when he will no longer be king.

00:56:23Restore to him his wisdom.

00:56:25And thy protection.

00:56:27I beg of thee.

00:56:31David!

00:56:45But what art thou doing all alone?

00:56:46But what art thou doing all alone here in the throne room?

00:56:50Nothing, my princess.

00:56:53Nothing.

00:56:55I was seeking thee, David.

00:56:57My father awaited thee in his quarters.

00:56:59He is weary and would hear thy songs again.

00:57:03I shall go forthwith, princess.

00:57:05My name is Michal.

00:57:10I thank thee.

00:57:13Michal.

00:57:17I rejoice that thou hast made my father calmer in spirit.

00:57:21Thy sweet presence and thy counsel are of very great help to him.

00:57:24Were it not that it had made its way into the minds of the wise,

00:57:27my counsel would be gone on the wings of the wind.

00:57:30Very true.

00:57:32But thou wert also able to do more.

00:57:34Thou hast made thy way into our hearts.

00:57:38When I said the wise, the one I truly had in mind was thee, Michal.

00:57:42Go, David.

00:57:44My father awaits thee.

00:58:05Well done.

00:58:07Well done, David.

00:58:09Well done.

00:58:11Well done, Jonathan.

00:58:13Thine arm is a strong and steady one.

00:58:15Like unto the arm of Saul.

00:58:17Aye, he was a great king in his time.

00:58:19But age is upon him.

00:58:22And with his wits he hath also lost his strength.

00:58:26He knows not in what dire straits Israel is now.

00:58:30Look at me.

00:58:32I am compelled to hurl darts at mere images of the foe

00:58:34instead of bearing arms so as to wrest the sacred ark

00:58:36from those accursed Philistines.

00:58:39Despair not, Jonathan.

00:58:41I tell thee, the day will indeed come,

00:58:43and that day is not far removed either.

00:58:45The day will come when the people of Israel

00:58:47will be once more as they were.

00:58:49David, thou speakest as a prophet.

00:58:52Long have I ceased to hope any more.

00:58:55Thou art wrong, Jonathan.

00:58:57I have not spoken as a prophet,

00:59:00but as a man.

00:59:02As a man who has faith in divine justice

00:59:04and is ready to serve its cause.

00:59:06Even by main force, if tis needed?

00:59:11Aye, I would even use force.

00:59:23And this, how does it serve thee?

00:59:26This is the weapon of the prophet.

00:59:28I shall show thee.

00:59:36In thy hands rests the fate of Israel,

00:59:38Benjamin of Gaba.

00:59:40Saul trusts thy wisdom,

00:59:42and hence hath made thee emissary.

00:59:46To redeem the authority of the king,

00:59:48the sacred ark must be returned to Jerusalem.

00:59:51Thou knowest the bitter unrest

00:59:53that now grips our land.

00:59:55I shall try not to deceive his faith.

00:59:57Even were it to cost us all of the gold in Israel,

00:59:59whatever is demanded by the Philistines,

01:00:02promise it.

01:00:03I will do as thou say'st, Abner.

01:00:17Listen carefully, Lazar.

01:00:20The Israelites are ready to pay

01:00:22whatever thou wouldst,

01:00:24provided thou return'st their sacred ark.

01:00:27Abner, the captain of their host,

01:00:29who is my lord also,

01:00:30will send Benjamin of Gaba as emissary to thee.

01:00:34Though this emissary is a wise man

01:00:36and speaks with a silver tongue,

01:00:38thou need'st not listen.

01:00:40Tis my lord Abner who asks me to tell thee

01:00:42that thou shalt never hear him, O king.

01:01:01The madness of this Saul.

01:01:05He dares ask for the ark.

01:01:09I shall take the ark to Jerusalem

01:01:11only when I have slain old Saul.

01:01:14Send Goliath to the oasis of Gath

01:01:16to lie in ambush for the emissary.

01:01:31Abner!

01:01:33Abner!

01:02:00Abner!

01:02:31Abner!

01:02:42And it is because of her

01:02:44that thou must always carry this with thee.

01:02:51Was she beautiful?

01:02:57Ay, Michal.

01:03:00A man seeks an ideal in a woman's love.

01:03:03In my eyes, Agla was everything.

01:03:05She was true perfection.

01:03:08Her presence alone gladdened my heart and soul.

01:03:12So with such a memory as this,

01:03:16thou wilt not love another woman easily.

01:03:19I know not, Michal.

01:03:22Before I thought this was true,

01:03:24but now, now I'm not certain.

01:03:31The murder of Benjamin of Gabba

01:03:33is indeed a hard blow, my king.

01:03:36Israel will long mourn him.

01:03:39He was one of Israel's greatest men.

01:03:43This mishap may stir up the feeling

01:03:45that we need a new king.

01:03:47A new king to restore the good name

01:03:49of a crown now scorned.

01:03:52But this peril could be easily avoided.

01:03:54And how?

01:03:55By making David

01:03:57thy emissary to the Philistine king Ashdod.

01:04:00David?

01:04:01Ay.

01:04:03David is the only man

01:04:05who has a chance of succeeding in this mission.

01:04:08He hath already given sufficient proof

01:04:10of his wisdom and cunning.

01:04:12I will call him.

01:04:21Thou hast been helpful to my father, the king,

01:04:24and thou art helpful to me, I thank thee very much.

01:04:28I am no more the sad and lonely girl

01:04:30that I once was.

01:04:33No, I'm happy, but how long will it last?

01:04:37Meek I'll.

01:04:43It can last forever if thou wilt.

01:05:01Meek I'll.

01:05:04David, son of Jesse,

01:05:07King Saul would see thee.

01:05:19Why art thou in my quarters?

01:05:23I am the wife of King Saul.

01:05:26I am the wife of King Saul.

01:05:27I am the wife of King Saul.

01:05:32Hast thou finished thy sweet tryst

01:05:34with that shepherd now?

01:05:36That shepherd is a counselor in the court, Nerob.

01:05:39One who turns to his prophet the evil spirit

01:05:41dwelling in the king, our own father.

01:05:43What sayest thou?

01:05:45That he is trying to strengthen his place in court

01:05:47and is using thee to do it.

01:05:50How is it possible for thee to say such things?

01:05:52David is deserving of the esteem

01:05:54of our people and of his king.

01:05:55he is worthy and worthy also to have a royal princess love him surely Merab

01:06:02where they also to have a royal princess love him

01:06:13Samuel is dead and all Israel mourns they have buried him in Rama in his

01:06:22birthplace but the Philistines are gathering themselves together the

01:06:31Philistines I've seen them I've seen a host of them

01:06:39now I'm afraid and my heart is greatly troubled

01:06:45when I inquired of the Lord

01:07:03battle there goes out a champion from their camp named Goliath Goliath of

01:07:10Garth Goliath whose height is six cubits and a span he has a helmet of

01:07:19brass upon his head and his arm to the coat of mail and the weight of the coat

01:07:23is five thousand shekels of brass the staff of his spear is like a weaver's

01:07:30beam and his spears head weighs six hundred shekels of iron and this man

01:12:03mercenaries of Ashdod have invaded our land they have already destroyed our

01:12:08outermost cities and slaughtered our people there the new moon rises they

01:12:13will be at the very gates of Jerusalem Jonathan thou hast forgotten that

01:12:18Jerusalem is the heart of Israel and that to leave it undefended might be a

01:12:22grievous error for the enemy hath more than tenfold the total of all our

01:12:26forces remember that another defeat might well be the last one no Isaac fear

01:12:32a cursed shameful fear gaze on it put here among ye is fixed like a shameful

01:12:41mask on all your faces it is the same fear which prompted you one day to

01:12:46betray my father Saul in another battle you went mad with fear and fled coward

01:12:53but there is no one who can stay that host Jonathan this will be the end of

01:12:57us no not yet the eyes of Ashdod will never come near enough to see the city

01:15:15but to suicide behold them

01:15:22the impossible is for God to perform I shall go alone to Ashdod and speak with

01:15:27him as I did once with Saul

01:15:35Oh

01:15:37Oh

01:15:40Oh

01:15:59who art thou David son of Jesse David son of Jesse the Shepherd David

01:16:09The renown of thy wisdom hath spread far and wide, but it is useless, useless stupid wisdom.

01:16:35So it is in thee that the Israelites trust.

01:16:40Thou art the one who calms down that old fool Saul.

01:16:45What dost thou want?

01:16:47I tell thee in the name of the Lord to return to us the sacred ark, and not to pass with

01:16:53thy host on the land of Israel.

01:16:56Thou shepherd, thy insolence hath no limits.

01:17:03Thine Israelites have armed anew despite the peace which we made with them at Gath.

01:17:08And thou askest me to keep my host out of thy land?

01:17:12I do not ask thee to keep it out, but God wills it so.

01:17:15Such is God's law.

01:17:17Thou canst not destroy a people that is defeated.

01:17:21Such is God's law.

01:17:24My only God is gold.

01:17:28My only law is Goliath.

01:17:33Defeat Goliath, and I shall not destroy Israel.

01:23:56♪

01:24:17Don operatives!

01:24:50Stop! King Astor has been slain! We are defeated!

01:25:50We are defeated!

01:26:20What are you doing here? What is this? A trick? You're practicing here? And this? What is this? A target? A wineskin? Are you rehearsing the murder of your king?

01:26:43No, oh king. The wineskin is below the throne. This is proof that the man that we would kill is he who is thine enemy here in thy very court.

01:26:51I will be grateful to you. Aye, but now get you gone. And hold your tongue so I shall have them cut out of your mouths. Away with you. Away. Return not to Israel until further order.

01:27:04Abner? Abner? Are you mad, Abner? I told you to plan this deed alone. It is a secret known only to us. A secret, you understand, from all Israel.

01:27:34Abner! Abner! I beg of thee, listen to me. Do not do this. But tis now we must smite him, for it may well prove to be our last chance. The people favor David. They will rise. And father...

01:27:51My father has agreed. Thou knowest how he fears David. When we've finished with him, the people will bow down to the will of the king. No, do not do this and trust the task to others.

01:28:01I must not, Merab. I will not have it go wrong. I must do it myself. Listen, Abner, let us forgo all this. Let us flee from here. Oh, do not do this. I beg of thee, do not do it.

01:28:14Let me go, Merab. No. You have no time to lose. No. Let me go, I said. Abner! Abner.

01:28:30Abner!

01:29:00Hooray!

01:29:30Hooray!

01:30:00Hooray!

01:30:22Hooray!

01:30:32Abner.

01:30:47Now, my father, thou art free. Thou hast slain thy evil spirit.

01:30:53No. He has slain Abner. He has slain Abner. And the evil spirit in Saul is still living. It will perish only with his death.

01:31:07I know my destiny, Merab. I know also the destiny of my people Israel.

01:31:14Take him away.

01:31:21Glory to David, hero of Israel. Long live David. Long live Saul, king of Israel.

01:31:29Hooray!

01:31:34I have sinned, David, I admit that. I wanted to do thee harm, but on this day thy soul is precious to mine eyes.

01:31:47Michael, take thou my daughter. Her will I give thee to wife.

01:31:51Be thou valiant for Israel, to fight the Lord's battles.

01:31:56Blessed be thou, my son David, for thou shalt do great things.

01:32:03Hooray!

01:32:11Hooray!

01:32:30Hooray!
