1 Samuel 21:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 The priest replied: “The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the Valley of Elah, is here wrapped in a garment behind an ephod.[a] If you wish to take it, do so; there is no sword here except that one.” “There is none like it,” David cried, “give it to me!”(A)
David a Fugitive. 11 That same day David fled from Saul, going to Achish, king of Gath.(B) 12 But the servants of Achish said to him, “Is this not David, the king of the land? Is it not for him that during their dances they sing out,
‘Saul has slain his thousands,
David his tens of thousands’?”(C)
