1 Samuel 27:2-7

2And David arose and passed over, he and the six hundred men that were with him, to Achish, the son of Maoch, king of Gath.

3And David abode with Achish at Gath, he and his men, every man with his household; David with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jizreelitess, and Abigail the Carmelitess, Nabal's wife.

4And it was told Saul that David had fled to Gath; and he sought no more for him.

5And David said to Achish, If now I have found favour in thine eyes, let them give me a place in some country-town, that I may abide there; for why should thy servant abide in the royal city with thee?

6And Achish gave him Ziklag that day; therefore Ziklag belongs to the kings of Judah to this day.

7And the time that David abode in the country of the Philistines was a year and four months.
