But one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled to David.

Abiathar told David that Saul had murdered the Lord’s priests.

Then David said to Abiathar, “I knew that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would certainly tell Saul. I have brought about the death of everyone in your father’s household (extended family).

When Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David at Keilah, he came down with an ephod in his hand.

But David knew that Saul was plotting evil against him; and he said to Abiathar the priest, “Bring the ephod here.”

David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech’s son, “Please bring me the ephod.” So Abiathar brought him the ephod.
