Then the Philistine ^H6430 approached ^H5066, morning ^H7925 and evening ^H6150, for forty ^H705 days ^H3117 and took ^H3320 his stand ^H3320.

Then David ^H1732 spoke ^H559 to the men ^H376 who were standing ^H5975 by him, saying ^H559, “What ^H4100 will be done ^H6213 for the man ^H376 who ^H834 strikes ^H5221 down ^H5221 this ^H1975 Philistine ^H6430 and takes ^H5493 away ^H5493 the reproach ^H2781 from Israel ^H3478? For who ^H4310 is this ^H2088 uncircumcised ^H6189 Philistine ^H6430, that he should [fn]reproach ^H2778 the battle ^H4634 lines ^H4634 of the living ^H2416 God ^H430?”

Then it happened ^H1961 when ^H3588 the Philistine ^H6430 rose ^H6965 and came ^H1980 and drew ^H7126 near ^H7126 to meet ^H7122 David ^H1732, that David ^H1732 ran ^H7323 quickly ^H4116 toward the battle ^H4634 line ^H4634 to meet ^H7122 the Philistine ^H6430.

And it happened ^H1961 as they were coming ^H935, when David ^H1732 returned ^H7725 from striking ^H5221 down ^H5221 the Philistine ^H6430, that the women ^H802 came ^H3318 out ^H3318 of all ^H3605 the cities ^H5892 of Israel ^H3478, singing ^H7891 and dancing ^H4246, to meet ^H7122 King ^H4428 Saul ^H7586, with tambourines ^H8596, with gladness ^H8057, and with [fn]musical ^H7991 instruments ^H7991.

Then Saul ^H7586 said ^H559 to David ^H1732, “Here ^H2009 is my older ^H1419 daughter ^H1323 Merab ^H4764; I will give ^H5414 her to you as a wife ^H802; only ^H389 be a man ^H1121 of valor ^H2428 for me and fight ^H3898 Yahweh’s ^H3068 battles ^H4421.” For Saul ^H7586 thought ^H559, “My hand ^H3027 shall not be against him, but let the hand ^H3027 of the Philistines ^H6430 be against him.”

Then the commanders ^H8269 of the Philistines ^H6430 went ^H3318 out ^H3318 to battle, and it happened ^H1961 as often ^H1767 as they went ^H3318 out ^H3318, that David ^H1732 behaved ^H7919 himself more ^H4480 insightfully ^H7919 than ^H4480 all ^H3605 the servants ^H5650 of Saul ^H7586. So his name ^H8034 was highly ^H3966 esteemed ^H3365.

Then there was war ^H4421 again ^H3254. And David ^H1732 went ^H3318 out ^H3318 and fought ^H3898 with the Philistines ^H6430 and struck ^H5221 them with a great ^H1419 slaughter ^H4347, so that they fled ^H5127 before ^H4480 H6440 him.

Then they told ^H5046 David ^H1732, saying ^H559, “Behold ^H2009, the Philistines ^H6430 are fighting ^H3898 against Keilah ^H7084 and are pillaging ^H8154 the threshing ^H1637 floors ^H1637.”

Now when ^H834 Saul ^H7586 returned ^H7725 from pursuing ^H310 the Philistines ^H6430, he was told ^H5046, saying ^H559, “Behold ^H2009, David ^H1732 is in the wilderness ^H4057 of Engedi ^H5872.”

Then David ^H1732 said ^H559 in his heart ^H3820, “Now ^H6258 I will be swept ^H5595 away ^H5595 one ^H259 day ^H3117 by the hand ^H3027 of Saul ^H7586. There ^H369 is ^H369 nothing ^H369 better ^H2896 for me than ^H3588 that I should utterly escape ^H4422 into the land ^H776 of the Philistines ^H6430. Saul ^H7586 then will despair ^H2976 of searching ^H1245 for me anymore ^H5750 in all ^H3605 the territory ^H1366 of Israel ^H3478, and I will escape ^H4422 from his hand ^H3027.”

Now it happened ^H1961 in those ^H1992 days ^H3117 that the Philistines ^H6430 gathered ^H6908 their armed camps ^H4264 for war ^H6635, to fight ^H3898 against Israel ^H3478. And Achish ^H397 said ^H559 to David ^H1732, “Know ^H3045 assuredly ^H3045 that you will go ^H3318 out ^H3318 with me in the camp ^H4264, you and your men ^H376.”
