David: The Warrior King - Bible Verse List
A Novel of King David
David in 1 Samuel 29
(1 Samuel 29:1) And the Philistines gathered all their armies to Aphek. And the
Israelites pitched by a fountain in Jezreel.
(1 Samuel 29:2) And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds and by
thousands. But David and his men passed on in the rear with Achish.
(1 Samuel 29:3) And the rulers of the Philistines said, What are these Hebrews
doing? And Achish said to the rulers of the Philistines, Is this not David the
servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or these
years. And I have not found anything evil in him from the day he fell away until
today?
(1 Samuel 29:4) And the rulers of the Philistines were angry with him. And the
Philistine rulers said to him, Send the man back, and he shall return to his
place where you have appointed him. And he shall not go down with us to battle,
and shall not become an enemy to us in battle. For with what should he reconcile
himself to his master? Should it not be with the heads of these men?
(1 Samuel 29:5) Is not this David, of whom they sang to one another in dances,
saying, Saul killed his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
(1 Samuel 29:6) And Achish called David and said to him, Surely, as Jehovah
lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in
the army is good in my sight. For I have not found evil in you since the day of
your coming to me until today. But you are not good in the eyes of the lords.
(1 Samuel 29:7) And return now, and go in peace so that you do not displease the
lords of the Philistines.
(1 Samuel 29:8) And David said to Achish, But what have I done? And what have
you found in your servant so long as I have been with you to this day, that I
may not go fight against the enemies of my lord the king?
(1 Samuel 29:9) And Achish answered and said to David, I know that you are good
in my sight, like an angel of God. But the princes of the Philistines have said,
He shall not go up with us to the battle.
(1 Samuel 29:10) And now, rise up early in the morning with your master's
servants who have come with you. And as soon as you have light, depart.
(1 Samuel 29:11) And David and his men rose up early to leave in the morning, to
return into the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
