New American Standard Bible 1995
1 Samuel 27:1-2
1Then David said 1to himself, “Now I will perish one day by the hand of Saul. 2There is nothing better for me than 3to escape into the land of the Philistines. Saul then will despair of searching for me anymore in all the territory of Israel, and I will escape from his hand.”
2So David arose and crossed over, he and 4the six hundred men who were with him, to 5Achish the son of Maoch, king of Gath.
