New King James Version
1 Samuel 22:18-23
18And the king said to Doeg, “You turn and kill the priests!” So Doeg the Edomite turned and struck the priests, and killed on that day eighty-five men who wore a linen ephod.
19Also Nob, the city of the priests, he struck with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and nursing infants, oxen and donkeys and sheep—with the edge of the sword.
20Now one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled after David.
21And Abiathar told David that Saul had killed the Lord’s priests.
22So David said to Abiathar, “I knew that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I have caused the death of all the persons of your father’s house.
23Stay with me; do not fear. For he who seeks my life seeks your life, but with me you shall be safe.”
