And David will rise and pass over, he and six hundred men that are with him, to Achish, son of Maoch, king of Gath. And David dwelt with Achish in Gath, he and his men, each in his house, David and his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal, the Carmelitess. read more.
And it was announced to Saul that David fled to Gath; and he will no more add to seek him. And David will say to Achish, If now I found grace in thine eyes, will they give me a place in one city of the field, and I will dwell there: and why shall thy servant dwell in the city of the kingdom with thee? And Achish will give to him in that day Ziklag; for this Ziklag was to the kings of Judah, even to this day. And the number of days which David dwelt in the field of the rovers will be days and four months.
