1 Samuel 27:1-2
1Then DavidH1732 saidH559 1to himselfH3820, “NowH6258 I will perishH5595 oneH259 dayH3117 by the handH3027 of SaulH7586. 2ThereH369 is nothingH369 betterH2896 for me thanH3588 3to escapeH4422 into the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430. SaulH7586 then will despairH2976 of searchingH1245 for me anymoreH5750 in allH3605 the territoryH1366 of IsraelH3478, and I will escapeH4422 from his handH3027.”
2So DavidH1732 aroseH6965 and crossedH5674 overH5674, he and 4the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 whoH834 were with him, to 5AchishH397 the sonH1121 of MaochH4582, kingH4428 of GathH1661.
