¹² If a prince delight in lies, all his servants are ungodly.

⁸ that ye have all conspired against me? So that there is none of you that openeth mine ear? Insomuch that my son hath made a bond with the son of Jesse, neither is there any of you that mourneth for me or showeth it in mine ear: because my son hath set up my servant to lie await against me, as it appeareth this day." ⁹ Then answered Doeg the Edomite, which had the oversight of the servants of Saul, and said, "I saw the son of Jesse, when he came to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, ¹⁰ which asked counsel of the LORD for him, and gave him victuals, and the sword of Goliath the Philistine also." ¹¹ Then the king sent to call Ahimelech the priest the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house: that is to say, the priests that were in Nob. And they came all to the king. ¹² And Saul said, "Hear, thou son of Ahitub." And he said, "Here I am, my lord." ¹³ Then said Saul to him, "Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, insomuch that thou hast given him victuals and a sword, and hast asked counsel of God for him that he should arise against me and lie await as it is come to pass this day?" ¹⁴ And Ahimelech answered the king, and said, "Who is so faithful among all thy servants as David and thereto the king's son-in-law, and goeth at thy bidding, and is had in honour in thine house? ¹⁵ Have I this day begun first to ask counsel of God for him? God forbid that from me: let not the king put such a thing unto his servant and on all the house of my father. For thy servant knoweth nothing of all this, either less or more." ¹⁶ But for all that, the king said, "Thou shalt surely die, Ahimelech; both thou and all thy father's house." ¹⁷ Then said the king unto his footmen that stood about him, "Turn and slay the priests of the LORD, both because their hand is with David and because they knew when David fled and showed it not to me." But the servants of the king would not move their hands, to run upon the priests of the LORD. ¹⁸ Then said the king to Doeg, "Turn thou and smite the priests." And Doeg the Edomite turned and ran upon the priests, and slew that same day four score and five persons that did wear each man a linen ephod. ¹⁹ And Nob, the city of the priests, he smote with the edge of the sword: both man and woman, child and suckling, with ox, ass and sheep. ²⁰ But yet one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled to David, ²¹ and showed David how that Saul had slain the LORD's priests. ²² And David said unto Abiathar, "I wist it the same day, that Doeg the Edomite which was there would tell it Saul. And I am cause of the death of all the souls of thy father's house. ²³ Abide with me and fear not: he that seeketh thy soul shall seek mine, and with me thou shalt be in safeguard."

And our part shall be to deliver him into the hands of the king." ²¹ Then said Saul, "Blessed are ye in the LORD: for ye have compassion on me. ²² Go, I pray you, and mark more diligently; and know and see his haunt, where his foot hath been, and who hath seen him there: for it is told me that he is very subtle. ²³ See therefore and know all the lurking places where he lurketh, and come again to me with the certainty, and I will go with you. And then if he be in the land, I will hunt him out with all the thousands of Judah.

And Ishbosheth said to Abner, "Wherefore liest thou with my father's concubine?" ⁸ Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ishbosheth, and said, "Am I a dog's head, then? That I, against Judah, do mercy unto the house of Saul thy father — and unto his brethren and kinsfolk — and have not delivered them into the hand of David? And thou layest a trespass to my charge this day for a woman's sake? ⁹ So do God to Abner, and so thereto: except that as the LORD hath sworn to David, I so do to him, ¹⁰ and bring the kingdom from the house of Saul, and set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, even from Dan to Beersheba." ¹¹ And he could give Abner never a word to answer because he feared him.

But the LORD hath avenged my lord the king this day of Saul and of his seed." ⁹ And David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said unto them, "As surely as the LORD liveth, which hath delivered my soul out of all adversities: ¹⁰ him that told me how that Saul was dead, thinking to have brought me good tidings, I caught and slew in Ziklag, to give him a reward for his tidings-bringing. ¹¹ And how much more ought I to deal with wicked men that have slain a righteous person in his own house upon his bed? Now therefore think ye that I will not require his blood of your hands and take you from the earth?" ¹² And David commanded his young men, and they slew them and cut off their hands and their feet and hanged them up by the pole in Hebron. And they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it in the sepulchre of Abner in Hebron.
