1SA-29:1 Now the Philistines gathered together all their armies
to
Aphek: and the Israelites pitched by a fountain which [is] in
Jezreel.
1SA-29:2 And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds,
and
by thousands: but David and his men passed on in the rereward
with
Achish.
1SA-29:3 Then said the princes of the Philistines, What [do]
these
Hebrews [here]? And Achish said unto the princes of the
Philistines,
[Is] not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel,
which
hath been with me these days, or these years, and I have found no
fault in him since he fell [unto me] unto this day?
1SA-29:4 And the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him;
and
the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Make this fellow
return,
that he may go again to his place which thou hast appointed him,
and
let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he be
an
adversary to us: for wherewith should he reconcile himself unto
his
master? [should it] not [be] with the heads of these men?
1SA-29:5 [Is] not this David, of whom they sang one to another
in
dances, saying, Saul slew his thousands, and David his ten
thousands?
1SA-29:6 Then Achish called David, and said unto him, Surely,
[as]
the LORD liveth, thou hast been upright, and thy going out and
thy
coming in with me in the host [is] good in my sight: for I have
not
found evil in thee since the day of thy coming unto me unto this
day:
nevertheless the lords favour thee not.
1SA-29:7 Wherefore now return, and go in peace, that thou
displease
not the lords of the Philistines.
1SA-29:8 And David said unto Achish, But what have I done? and
what
hast thou found in thy servant so long as I have been with thee
unto
this day, that I may not go fight against the enemies of my lord
the
king?
1SA-29:9 And Achish answered and said to David, I know that thou
[art] good in my sight, as an angel of God: notwithstanding the
princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us
to
the battle.
1SA-29:10 Wherefore now rise up early in the morning with thy
master's servants that are come with thee: and as soon as ye be
up
early in the morning, and have light, depart.
1SA-29:11 So David and his men rose up early to depart in the
morning, to return into the land of the Philistines. And the
Philistines went up to Jezreel.
