1SA-21:1 Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and
Ahimelech was
afraid at the meeting of David, and said unto him, Why [art]
thou alone, and
no man with thee?
1SA-21:2 And David said unto Ahimelech the priest, The king
hath commanded me
a business, and hath said unto me, Let no man know any thing of
the business
whereabout I send thee, and what I have commanded thee: and I
have appointed
[my] servants to such and such a place.
1SA-21:3 Now therefore what is under thine hand? give [me] five
[loaves of]
bread in mine hand, or what there is present.
1SA-21:4 And the priest answered David, and said, [There is] no
common bread
under mine hand, but there is hallowed bread; if the young men
have kept
themselves at least from women.
1SA-21:5 And David answered the priest, and said unto him, Of a
truth women
[have been] kept from us about these three days, since I came
out, and the
vessels of the young men are holy, and [the bread is] in a
manner common, yea,
though it were sanctified this day in the vessel.
1SA-21:6 So the priest gave him hallowed [bread]: for there was
no bread
there but the showbread, that was taken from before the LORD, to
put hot bread
in the day when it was taken away.
1SA-21:7 Now a certain man of the servants of Saul [was] there
that day,
detained before the LORD; and his name [was] Doeg, an Edomite,
the chiefest of
the herdmen that [belonged] to Saul.
1SA-21:8 And David said unto Ahimelech, And is there not here
under thine
hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my
weapons with
me, because the king's business required haste.
1SA-21:9 And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the
Philistine, whom thou
slewest in the valley of Elah, behold, it [is here] wrapped in a
cloth behind
the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take [it]: for [there is] no
other save
that here. And David said, [There is] none like that; give it me.
1SA-21:10 And David arose, and fled that day for fear of Saul,
and went to
Achish the king of Gath.
1SA-21:11 And the servants of Achish said unto him, [Is] not
this David the
king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in
dances, saying,
Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
1SA-21:12 And David laid up these words in his heart, and was
sore afraid of
Achish the king of Gath.
1SA-21:13 And he changed his behaviour before them, and feigned
himself mad
in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let
his spittle
fall down upon his beard.
1SA-21:14 Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see the
man is mad:
wherefore [then] have ye brought him to me?
1SA-21:15 Have I need of mad men, that ye have brought this
[fellow] to play
the mad man in my presence? shall this [fellow] come into my
house?
