¶ The .xxix. Chapter.
¶ Dauid goeth wyth kynge Achis to fyght agaynst Saul.
A The Philistines were geathered
togeather &wt; all their armyes vnto
Aphec: And þe; Israelites pitched
in Aiin, which is &ibar; Iesrahel.
And þe; Lordes of the Philistines
w&ebar;t forth &wt; the h&ubar;dreds. ∧ thousandes. But
Dauid ∧ his m&ebar; came beh&ibar;de &wt; Achis. Then
sayde the Lords of the Philistines, what are
yo&ubar;der Ebrues? Achis sayd vnto þe; Lordes
of þe; Philistines: Is not thys Dauid the seruaunt
of Saul the kynge of Israel, whych
hath bene wyth me these &rhand; dayes or yeres?
I haue founde no fault in hym, sence he fledd
vnto me vnto thys daye.
B And the Lordes of
the Philistines were wroth wyth hym and
sayde vnto hym: Make this felowe returne,
that he maye go agayne to hys place whych
thou hast appoynted hym: and let hym not
go downe wyth vs to battell, lest in the battell
he be an aduersarye to vs. For wherwyth
coulde he better obtayne the fauoure
of hys master, then wyth the heedes of these
men? Is not thys Dauid, to wh&obar; they sange
in daunses: note Saul slue hys thousande, and
Dauid hys ten thousande? Then Achis called
Dauid, and sayde vnto hym: As sure as
the Lorde lyueth, thou hast bene honest, and
good in my syght, whan thou wentest out ∧
in wyth me in the hoost: neyther haue I founde
euell with the, sence thou camest to me
vnto thys daye: Neuerthelesse the Lordes of
þe; Philistines fauoure the not: Wherfore now
returne, ∧ go in peace, that thou displease not
the Lordes of the Philistynes.
C And Dauid
sayde vnto Achis: And what haue I done?
what hast thou founde in thy serua&ubar;t, as l&obar;g
as I haue bene wyth the vnto thys daye, þt;
I maye not go fyght against the enemyes of
my Lorde the kynge?
D Achis answered ∧ sayd to Dauid: I know
that thou art good, ∧ art in my syght, as an
Angell of God. Not wythstandinge the Lordes
of the Philistynes haue sayde: Let hym
not go vp &wt; vs to battell. Wherfore nowe
ryse vp earlye in þe; mornyng &wt; thy masters
seruauntes that are come to the: and when
ye be vp early (as sone as ye haue lyght) departe.
And so Dauid and his m&ebar; rose vp earlye
to departe in the mornynge, ∧ to returne
into the land of the Philistines. And þe; Philistines
went vp to Iezraell.
