1 Samuel 29:2-4 And, the lords of the Philistines, were passing on by hundreds, and by thousands,––but, David and his men, were passing on in the rear, with Achish.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ² And, the lords of the Philistines, were passing on by hundreds, and by thousands,––but, David and his men, were passing on in the rear, with Achish. ³ Then said the princes of the Philistines, What are these Hebrews [doing]? And Achish said unto the princes of the Philistines––Is not this David, servant of Saul king of Israel, who hath been with me this year, or two, and I have found in him nothing, from the day of his coming over unto me unto this day? ⁴ But the princes of the Philistines raged against him, and the princes of the Philistines said unto him––Let the man go back, that he may return unto the place which thou didst appoint him, and let him not go down with us, into battle, so shall he not become to us a traitor, in the battle,––for, wherewith, should this fellow gain favour with his lord? Would it not be with the heads of those men?
