1 Samuel 21:6-9

6So 1the priestH3548 gaveH5414 him consecratedH6944 bread; for there was noH3808 breadH3899 thereH8033 exceptH3588H518 the 2breadH3899 of the PresenceH6440 which was removedH5493 from its place beforeH6440 the LordH3068, in order to putH7760 hotH2527 breadH3899 in its place on the dayH3117 it was takenH3947 away.

7Now oneH376 of the servantsH5650 of SaulH7586 was thereH8033 that dayH3117, detainedH6113 beforeH6440 the LordH3068; and his nameH8034 was 3DoegH1673 the EdomiteH130, the 4chiefH47 of Saul’sH7586 shepherdsH7462.

8DavidH1732 saidH559 to AhimelechH288, “Now isH3426 thereH3426 noH371 spearH2595 orH176 swordH2719 5on handH3027? For I broughtH3947 neitherH1571H3808 my swordH2719 norH1571 my weaponsH3627 6with me, becauseH3588 the king’sH4428 matterH1697 was urgentH5169.” 9Then the priestH3548 saidH559, “7The swordH2719 of GoliathH1555 the PhilistineH6430, whomH834 you 8killedH5221 9in the ValleyH6010 of ElahH424, beholdH2009, it is wrappedH3874 in a clothH8071 behindH310 the ephodH646; ifH518 you would takeH3947 it for yourself, takeH3947 it. For thereH369 isH369 noH369 otherH312 exceptH2108 it hereH2088.” And DavidH1732 saidH559, “ThereH369 isH369 noneH369 likeH3644 it; giveH5414 it to me.”
