2And DavidH1732 aroseH6965, and he passed overH5674 with the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 that were with him unto AchishH397, the sonH1121 of MaochH4582, kingH4428 of GathH1661. 3And DavidH1732 dweltH3427 with AchishH397 at GathH1661, he and his menH582, every manH376 with his householdH1004, even DavidH1732 with his twoH8147 wivesH802, AhinoamH293 the JezreelitessH3159, and AbigailH26 the CarmelitessH3762, Nabal’sH5037 wifeH802. 4And it was toldH5046 SaulH7586 that DavidH1732 was fledH1272 to GathH1661: and he soughtH1245 no more againH3254 for him.
