1And they toldH5046 DavidH1732, sayingH559, Behold, the PhilistinesH6430 fightH3898 against KeilahH7084, and they rob the threshing-floors.
2And DavidH1732 inquired of Jehovah, sayingH559, Shall I go and smite these PhilistinesH6430? And Jehovah saidH559 to DavidH1732, Go and smite the PhilistinesH6430, and saveH3467 KeilahH7084.
3But David's menH376 saidH559 to him, Behold, we are afraidH3372 hereH6311 in JudahH3063; how much more then if we go to KeilahH7084 against the armies of the PhilistinesH6430?
4And DavidH1732 inquired of Jehovah yetH5750 againH5750. And Jehovah answered him and saidH559, AriseH6965, goH3381 down to KeilahH7084; for I will giveH5414 the PhilistinesH6430 into thy handH3027.
5And DavidH1732 and his menH376 went to KeilahH7084, and foughtH3898 against the PhilistinesH6430, and brought awayH5090 their cattle, and smote them with a greatH1419 slaughterH4347. So DavidH1732 savedH3467 the inhabitantsH3427 of KeilahH7084.
6And it came to pass, when AbiatharH54 the sonH1121 of AhimelechH288 fledH1272 to DavidH1732 to KeilahH7084, he came downH3381 with an ephodH646 in his handH3027.
7And it was toldH5046 SaulH7586 that DavidH1732 had comeH935 to KeilahH7084. Then SaulH7586 saidH559, 1GodH430 has cast him off into my handH3027; for he is shutH5462 in, by entering into a cityH5892 that has gates and barsH1280.
