20But 6oneH259 sonH1121 of AhimelechH288 the sonH1121 of AhitubH285, namedH8034 AbiatharH54, 7escapedH4422 and fledH1272 8toH310 DavidH1732. 21AbiatharH54 informedH5046 DavidH1732 that SaulH7586 had killedH2026 the priestsH3548 of the LordH3068. 22Then DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbiatharH54, “I knewH3045 on that dayH3117, whenH3588 9DoegH1673 the EdomiteH130 was thereH8033, that he would certainlyH5046 tellH5046 SaulH7586. I myselfH595 10have turnedH5437 against everyH3605 personH5315 in your father’sH1 householdH1004. 23StayH3427 with me; do not beH3372 afraidH3372, 11evenH3588 thoughH3588 12he whoH834 is seekingH1245 my lifeH5315 is seekingH1245 your lifeH5315. For you are safeH4931 with me.”
