1 Samuel 21:10--22:5

And David
<01732>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and fled
<01272> (8799)
that day
<03117>
for fear
<06440>
of Saul
<07586>_,
and went
<0935> (8799)
to Achish
<0397>
the king
<04428>
of Gath
<01661>_.
And the servants
<05650>
of Achish
<0397>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, [Is] not this David
<01732>
the king
<04428>
of the land
<0776>_?
did they not sing
<06030> (8799)
one to another of him
<02088>
in dances
<04246>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Saul
<07586>
hath slain
<05221> (8689)
his thousands
<0505>_,
and David
<01732>
his ten thousands
<07233>_?
And David
<01732>
laid up
<07760> (8799)
these words
<01697>
in his heart
<03824>_,
and was sore
<03966>
afraid
<03372> (8799)
of
<06440>
Achish
<0397>
the king
<04428>
of Gath
<01661>_.
And he changed
<08138> (8762)
his behaviour
<02940>
before
<05869>
them, and feigned himself mad
<01984> (8704)
in their hands
<03027>_,
and scrabbled
<08427> (8762)
on the doors
<01817>
of the gate
<08179>_,
and let his spittle
<07388>
fall down
<03381> (8686)
upon his beard
<02206>_.
{scrabbled: or, made marks}
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Achish
<0397>
unto his servants
<05650>_,
Lo, ye see
<07200> (8799)
the man
<0376>
is mad
<07696> (8693)_:
wherefore [then] have ye brought
<0935> (8686)
him to me? {is mad: or, playeth the mad man}
Have I need
<02638>
of mad men
<07696> (8794)_,
that ye have brought
<0935> (8689)
this [fellow] to play the mad man
<07696> (8692)
in my presence? shall this [fellow] come
<0935> (8799)
into my house
<01004>_?
David
<01732>
therefore departed
<03212> (8799)
thence, and escaped
<04422> (8735)
to the cave
<04631>
Adullam
<05725>_:
and when his brethren
<0251>
and all his father's
<01>
house
<01004>
heard
<08085> (8799)
[it], they went down
<03381> (8799)
thither to him.
And every one
<0376>
[that was] in distress
<04689>_,
and every one
<0376>
that [was] in debt
<05378> (8801)_,
and every one
<0376>
[that was] discontented
<04751> <05315>_,
gathered
<06908> (8691)
themselves unto him; and he became a captain
<08269>
over them: and there were with him about four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>
men
<0376>_.
{was in debt: Heb. had a creditor} {discontented: Heb. bitter of soul}
And David
<01732>
went
<03212> (8799)
thence to Mizpeh
<04708>
of Moab
<04124>_:
and he said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>
of Moab
<04124>_,
Let my father
<01>
and my mother
<0517>_,
I pray thee, come forth
<03318> (8799)_,
[and be] with you, till I know
<03045> (8799)
what God
<0430>
will do
<06213> (8799)
for me.
And he brought
<05148> (8686)
them before
<06440>
the king
<04428>
of Moab
<04124>_:
and they dwelt
<03427> (8799)
with him all the while
<03117>
that David
<01732>
was in the hold
<04686>_.
And the prophet
<05030>
Gad
<01410>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto David
<01732>_,
Abide
<03427> (8799)
not in the hold
<04686>_;
depart
<03212> (8798)_,
and get
<0935> (8804)
thee into the land
<0776>
of Judah
<03063>_.
Then David
<01732>
departed
<03212> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
into the forest
<03293>
of Hareth
<02802>_.
