1 Samuel 22:16

Saul Kills The Priests At Nob

¹⁵ Was it to-day that I began to inquire of God for him? be it far from me: let not the king charge anything to his servant, nor to all the house of my father; for thy servant knew nothing of all this, less or more. ¹⁶ And the king said, Thou shalt certainly die, Ahimelech, thou, and all thy father's house. ¹⁷ And the king said to the couriers that stood about him, Turn and put the priests of Jehovah to death; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew when he fled, and did not inform me. But the servants of the king were not willing to put forth their hand to fall on the priests of Jehovah.
