Chap. XXII. Dauid with a great retinew goeth to the king of Moab 5. but by aduise of Gad the prophet, returneth into Iuda. 6. Saul lamenting that many conspire against him. 9. Doeg accuseth Achimelech, 14. who iustifieth both Dauid and himself. 16. He and al the Priestes with much people in Nobe are slaine by Sauls commandment, 20. onlie Abiathar escaping fleeth to Dauid.

1   David therefore went from thence, and fled to the caue of Odellam. Which when his brethren had heard, and a his fathers house, they went downe to him thither.

2   And there were gathered vnto him, al that were in distresse, and oppressed with debt, and of a pensiue hart, and he was made their prince, and there were with him about foure hundred men.

3   And Dauid departed from thence into Maspha, which is Moab: and he said to the king of Moab: Let my father and my mother tary with you, I besech thee, til I know what God wil doe to me.

4   And he left them before the face of the king of Moab, and they abode with him al the dayes, that Dauid was in garrison.

5   And Gad the prophet said to Dauid: Tary not in garrison, depart, and goe into the Land of Iuda. And Dauid departed, and came into the forest of Haret.

Dauid.

6   And Saul heard that Dauid had appeared, and the men that were with him. And Saul when he abode in Gabaa, and was in the wood, which is in Rama, holding a speare in his hand, and al his seruantes that stood about him,

7   he sayd to his seruantes that stoode about him: Heare me now ye children of Iemini: wil the sonne of Isai geue to al you fieldes, and vineyardes, and make al you tribunes, & centurions:

8   because you haue al conspired against me, and there is none that telleth me, especially where my sonne also hath entred league with the sonne of Isai? There is none of you, that pitieth my case, neither is there that telleth me: for that my sonne hath raised vp my seruant against me, lying in waite for me vntil this day.

9   And Doeg the Idumeite which stood by, and was the chief among the seruantes of Saul, answering, I sawe, quoth he, the sonne of Isai, in Nobe with Achimelech the sonne of Achitob the priest.

10   Who consulted our Lord for him, and gaue him victuals, yea and the sword of Goliath the Philistian he gaue to him.

11   The king therefore sent to cal for Achimelech the priest the sonne of Achitob, and al his fathers house, the priestes that were in Nobe, who came al to the king.

12   And Saul said to Achimelec: Heare thou sonne of Achitob. Who answered: I am readie, my Lord.

13   And Saul said to him: Why haue you conspired against me, thou, and the sonne of Isai, and hast geuen him bread and a sword, and hast consulted our Lord for him, that he might rise vp against me, continuing a traitour vntil this day?

14   And Achimelech answering the king, said: And who amongst al thy seruantes faithful as Dauid, and the kings sonne in lawe, and going fourth at thy commandm&ebar;t, and glorious in thy house?

15   Did I beginne this day to consult our Lord for him? farre be this from me: let not the king suspect such a thing against his seruant, in al the house of my father: for thy seruant knew not any thing concerning this busines, either litle or great.

16   And the king saidy: Ding thou shalt dye Achimelec, thou, and al thy fathers house.

17   And the king said to the curriers, that stood about him: Turne your selues, and kil the priests of our Lord, note for their hand is with Dauid, knowing that he was fled, and they told me not. And note the kings seruantes would not extend their handes vpon the priests of our Lord.

18   And the king said to Doeg: Turne thou, and runne vpon the priests. And Doeg the Idumeite being turned, ranne vpon

19   And Nobe the citie of the priests, he stroke in the edge of the sword, men and wemen, and children, and sucklinges, and oxe and asse, and shepe in the edge of the sword.

20   But one sonne of Achimelech the sonne of Achitob, escaping, whose name was Abiathar, fled to Dauid,

21   and told him that Saul had slaine the priestes of our Lord.

22   And Dauid said to Abiathar: I knew in that day when Doeg the Idumeit was there, without doubt he would tel Saul, I am giltie of al the soules of thy father.

23   Abide with me, feare not: if any man shal seeke my life, he shal seeke thy life also, and with me thou shal be preserued.
