1 Samuel 22:4-11

4And he brought them before the kingH4428 of MoabH4124: and they dweltH3427 with him all the while that DavidH1732 wasH1961 in the stronghold. 5And the prophetH5030 GadH1410 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, Abide not in the stronghold; depart, and get thee into the landH776 of JudahH3063. Then DavidH1732 departed, and cameH935 into the forestH3293 of Hereth.

6And SaulH7586 heardH8085 that DavidH1732 was discovered, and the menH376 that were with him: now SaulH7586 was sittingH3427 in GibeahH1390, under the tamarisk-tree in Ramah, with his spearH2595 in his handH3027, and all his servantsH5650 were standingH5324 about him. 7And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto his servantsH5650 that stoodH5324 about him, HearH8085 now, ye Benjamites; will the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 giveH5414 every one of you fieldsH7704 and vineyardsH3754, will he makeH7760 you all captains of thousandsH505 and captains of hundredsH3967, 8that all of you have conspired against me, and there is none that discloseth to me when my sonH1121 maketh a league with the sonH1121 of JesseH3448, and there is none of you that is sorry for me, or discloseth unto me that my sonH1121 hath stirred up my servantH5650 against me, to lieH693 in waitH693, as at this dayH3117? 9Then answered DoegH1673 the EdomiteH130, who stoodH5324 by the servantsH5650 of SaulH7586, and saidH559, I sawH7200 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 comingH935 to NobH5011, to AhimelechH288 the sonH1121 of AhitubH285. 10And he inquired of Jehovah for him, and gaveH5414 him victuals, and gaveH5414 him the swordH2719 of GoliathH1555 the PhilistineH6430.

11Then the kingH4428 sentH7971 to callH7121 AhimelechH288 the priestH3548, the sonH1121 of AhitubH285, and all his father’sH1 houseH1004, the priestsH3548 that were in NobH5011: and they cameH935 all of them to the kingH4428.
