1And DavidH1732 saidH559 in his heartH3820, I shall nowH6258 perish oneH259 dayH3117 by the handH3027 of SaulH7586: there is nothingH369 betterH2896 for me than that I should speedily escapeH4422 into the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430; and SaulH7586 will despairH2976 of me to seekH1245 me any moreH4480 within all the limits of IsraelH3478, and I shall escapeH4422 out of his handH3027.

2And DavidH1732 aroseH6965 and passedH5674 over, he and the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 that were with him, to AchishH397, the sonH1121 of Maoch, kingH4428 of GathH1661.

3And DavidH1732 abode with AchishH397 at GathH1661, he and his menH376, every manH376 with his householdH1004; DavidH1732 with his twoH8147 wivesH802, AhinoamH293 the Jizreelitess, and AbigailH26 the Carmelitess, Nabal's wifeH802.
