1 Samuel 30:13
And David said unto him, To whom belongest thou? and whence art thou? And he said, I am a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days agone I fell sick.
KJV
Dixit itaque ei David : Cujus es tu ? vel unde ? et quo pergis ? Qui ait : Puer ægyptius ego sum, servus viri Amalecitæ : dereliquit autem me dominus meus, quia ægrotare cœpi nudiustertius.
Vulgate
καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Δαυείδ Τίνος σὺ εἶ, καὶ πόθεν εἶ; καὶ εἶπεν τὸ παιδάριον τὸ Αἰγύπτιον Ἐγώ εἰμι δοῦλος ἀνδρὸς Ἀμαληκείτου, καὶ κατέλιπέν με ὁ κύριός μου, ὅτι ἠνωχλήθην ἐγὼ σήμερον τριταῖος.
LXX
