1 Samuel 21:10-15

10And DavidH1732 arose, and fled that day for fear of SaulH559, and went to Achish the king of Gath. 11And the servants of AchishH397 saidH413 unto him, Is notH1732 this DavidH1732 the kingH4428 of the landH6440? didH3117 they notH1732 sing one to another of him in dances, saying, SaulH7586 hath slain his thousands, and DavidH1732 his ten thousands? 12And DavidH1732 laid upH4428 theseH2088 words in his heart, and was sore afraid of AchishH397 the kingH4428 of Gath. 13And he changed his behaviour beforeH6440 them, and feigned himselfH3824 mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and letH7760 his spittle fall downH6440 uponH7760 his beard. 14Then saidH413 Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye seeH5869 the manH8179 is mad: wherefore then have ye broughtH3381 him to meH413? 15DoH4100 I lack madH7696 menH376, that ye have broughtH935 this fellowH376 to play the madH7696 manH376 in my presence? shall this fellowH376 comeH935 intoH413 my house?
