1 Samuel 27:1-2

1Then DavidH1732 saidH559 to 1himselfH3820, “NowH6258 I will 2perishH5595 oneH259 dayH3117 by the handH3027 of SaulH7586. 3ThereH369 isH369 nothingH369 betterH2896 for me thanH3588 to safelyH4422 escapeH4422 into the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430. Then SaulH7586 will despairH2976 of searchingH1245 for me anymoreH5750 in allH3605 the territoryH1366 of IsraelH3478, and I will escapeH4422 from his handH3027.”
