RF SA1 21:1 David flies to Ahimelech, the Priest, for Protection, but is refused.
David then went to Ahimelech the Priest at Nob, but Ahimelech hesitated to receive David, and asked him, "Why are you alone? and no one with you?"
RF SA1 21:2 So David answered Ahimelech the Priest, "The king ordered me on a business, and said to Me 'Let no one know what the business is on which I send you, nor what I have ordered you.' So I appointed another place for my men.
RF SA1 21:3 And now what have you got here? Give me those five cakes,—or I shall take them myself."
RF SA1 21:4 But the Priest replied to David and said, "It is not common bread that is under my care, but consecrated bread. If the young men have kept themselves, however, from women?"
RF SA1 21:5 And David answered the Priest, and said, "Women have not approached us for three days since I set out. The accoutrements of the men are clean; and the way open, and indeed my accoutrements were cleaned that day."
RF SA1 21:6 Then the Priest gave him the consecrated bread, for he had no other bread there, except the Bread of the Presentation taken away from the piles before the EVER-LIVING to be replaced by hot bread on the day that he took it.
RF SA1 21:7 Doeg the Edomite sees David at Nob, and reports it to Saul.
There was, however, at the same time an officer of Saul's resting before the EVER-LIVING, named Doeg the Edomite, the chief of Saul's shepherds.
RF SA1 21:8 And David asked Ahimelech, "Is there not here in your custody a spear or sword? For I could not bring my sword or my arms with me, for the order of the king was very urgent!"
RF SA1 21:9 The Priest replied, "The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you defeated on the plain of Halal), is here, wrapped in a cloth behind his armour. If you will take that,—take it, for there is not another except it here." And David replied, "There is none like it! Give it to me!"
RF SA1 21:10 (B.C. 1058.) David Flies to Gath and feigns madness.
Then David arose and fled at once from the neighborhood of Saul, and went to Akish, king of Gath.
RF SA1 21:11 But the officers of Akish said to him, "Is not this David the Leader of the country? Was it not about him they sang in the dances, saying, 'Saul has defeated his thousands, but David his ten thousands?'"
RF SA1 21:12 And David put these words into his heart, and was very terrified in the presence of Akish, king of Gath.
RF SA1 21:13 So he altered his way of talking in their sight, and acted the fool towards them, and scribbled on the panels of the doors, and dribbled his spittle on his beard.
RF SA1 21:14 Akish consequently said to his officers, "You see the man is mad! Why have you brought him to me?
RF SA1 21:15 Have I need of fools that you have brought this one to me to play the fool for me?—Let him get out of my house!"
