RF SA1 29:1 (B.C. 1054.) David Volunteers to fight for the Philistines.
The Philishtim had now assembled all their forces at Afak, and Israel had encamped at the Well which is in Jezrael.
RF SA1 29:2 And the forces of the Philishtim advanced by battalions and regiments, but David and his men were with Akish in the rear.
RF SA1 29:3 The Generals of the Philishtim, however, asked, "Who are these Hebrews?" And Akish answered the Generals of the Philishtim, "Is not this David, the officer of Saul, King of Israel, who has been with me for this year or two, and I have not found in him any fault from the day he deserted until now."
RF SA1 29:4 The Generals of the Philishtim, however, collected about him, and the Generals of the Philishtim said to him, "Send the man away, and let him go to his residence, where let him be retained, for he shall not advance with us to the campaign, lest he betray us in the campaign. For how could he reconcile himself to his Prince? Would it not be by the heads of our men?
RF SA1 29:5 Is not this David about whom they chorused with dances saying,—
'Saul has slain his thousands
And David his ten thousands'?"
RF SA1 29:6 Akish consequently summoned David, and said to him, "By the EVER-LIVING LIFE, in my opinion you have been right and good in your intercourse with me in the camp! Nor have I found anything wrong about you from the day you came up to me until this time; but the opinion of the nobles is not good about you.
RF SA1 29:7 Therefore return, and go away quietly, and create no offence in the sight of the Philishtim lords."
RF SA1 29:8 David, however, asked Akish, "Why? What have I done? What have you found in your servant, from the day I came to you until this day, that I may not go and fight the enemies of my Lord the King?"
RF SA1 29:9 But Akish answered and said to David, "I acknowledge you are as good in my opinion as a messenger of GOD. The generals of the Philishtim, however, say 'He shall not advance with us to the campaign.'
RF SA1 29:10 So now rest till the morning with the servants of your Prince who came with you, but arise at dawn of light with them and depart."
RF SA1 29:11 Consequently David and his men rested until they marched at dawn to return to the country of the Philishtim. Then the Philishtim advanced to Jezrael.
