[1] Now the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek; and the Israelites encamped by the spring which is in Jezreel. [2] The lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds and by thousands; and David and his men passed on in the rear with Achish. [3] Then the princes of the Philistines said, “What about these Hebrews?”Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, “Isn’t this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or rather these years? I have found no fault in him since he fell away until today.” [4] But the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; and the princes of the Philistines said to him, “Make the man return, that he may go back to his place where you have appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he become an adversary to us. For with what should this fellow reconcile himself to his lord? Should it not be with the heads of these men? [5] Isn’t this David, of whom people sang to one another in dances, saying,
‘Saul has slain his thousands,
and David his ten thousands’?” [6] Then Achish called David and said to him, “As Yahweh lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the army is good in my sight; for I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming to me to this day. Nevertheless, the lords don’t favor you. [7] Therefore now return, and go in peace, that you not displease the lords of the Philistines.” [8] David said to Achish, “But what have I done? What have you found in your servant so long as I have been before you to this day, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?” [9] Achish answered David, “I know that you are 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.’ [10] Therefore now rise up early in the morning with the servants of your lord who have come with you; and as soon as you are up early in the morning and have light, depart.” [11] So David rose up early, he and his men, to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines; and the Philistines went up to Jezreel.

David and His Men
[1] Now the Philistines H6430 gathered together H6908 all H3605 their armies H4264 to Aphek: H663 and the Israelites H3478 pitched H2583 by a fountain H5869 which is in Jezreel. H3157 [2] And the lords H5633 of the Philistines H6430 passed on H5674 by hundreds, H3967 and by thousands: H505 but David H1732 and his men H582 passed on H5674 in the rereward H314 with H5973 Achish. H397 [3] Then said H559 the princes H8269 of the Philistines, H6430 What do these Hebrews H5680 here? And Achish H397 said H559 unto the princes H8269 of the Philistines, H6430 Is not this David, H1732 the servant H5650 of Saul H7586 the king H4428 of Israel, H3478 which H834 hath been with me these days, H3117 or these years, H8141 and I have found H4672 no fault H3972 in him since H3117 he fell H5307 unto me unto this day? H3117 [4] And the princes H8269 of the Philistines H6430 were wroth H7107 with him; and the princes H8269 of the Philistines H6430 said H559 unto H413 him, Make H7725 H853 this H2088 fellow H376 return, H7725 that he may go again H7725 to his place H4725 which H834 thou hast appointed H6485 him, and let him not go down H3381 with us to battle, H4421 lest in the battle H4421 he be an adversary H7854 to us: for wherewith should he reconcile H7521 himself unto his master? H113 should it not be with the heads H7218 of these men? H582 [5] Is not this David, H1732 of whom they sang H6030 one to another in dances, H4246 saying, H559Saul H7586 slew H5221 his thousands, H505
And David H1732 his ten thousands? H7233
[6] Then Achish H397 called H7121 David, H1732 and said H559 unto him, Surely, as the Lord H3068 liveth, H2416 thou hast been upright, H3477 and thy going out H3318 and thy coming in H935 with H854 me in the host H4264 is good H2896 in my sight: H5869 for H3588 I have not found H4672 evil H7451 in thee since the day H3117 of thy coming H935 unto me unto this day: H3117 nevertheless the lords H5633 favour H2896 thee H5869 not. H3808 [7] Wherefore now return, H7725 and go H3212 in peace, H7965 that thou displease H6213 H7451 H5869 not H3808 the lords H5633§ of the Philistines. H6430 [8] And David H1732 said H559 unto Achish, H397 But what have I done? H6213 and what hast thou found H4672 in thy servant H5650 so long as H3117 I have been with thee H6440 unto this day, H3117 that I may not go H935 fight H3898 against the enemies H341 of my lord H113 the king? H4428 [9] And Achish H397 answered H6030 and said H559 to David, H1732 I know H3045 that thou art good H2896 in my sight, H5869 as an angel H4397 of God: H430 notwithstanding the princes H8269 of the Philistines H6430 have said, H559 He shall H5927 not H3808 go up H5927 with H5973 us to the battle. H4421 [10] Wherefore now rise up early H7925 in the morning H1242 with thy master’s H113 servants H5650 that are come H935 with thee: and as soon as ye be up early H7925 in the morning, H1242 and have light, H215 depart. H3212 [11] So David H1732 and his men H582 rose up early H7925 to depart H3212 in the morning, H1242 to return H7725 into the land H776 of the Philistines. H6430 And the Philistines H6430 went up H5927 to Jezreel. H3157
