1 Samuel 29:2-4

New King James Version

² And the ^(A)lords of the Philistines ^[a]passed in review by hundreds and by thousands, but ^(B)David and his men passed in review at the rear with Achish. ³ Then the princes of the Philistines said, “What are these Hebrews doing here?”

And Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, “Is this not David, the servant of Saul king of Israel, who has been with me ^(C)these days, or these years? And to this day I have ^(D)found no fault in him since he defected to me.”

⁴ But the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; so the princes of the Philistines said to him, ^(E)“Make this fellow return, that he may go back to the place which you have appointed for him, and do not let him go down with us to ^(F)battle, lest ^(G)in the battle he become our adversary. For with what could he reconcile himself to his master, if not with the heads of these ^(H)men?
