Chap. XXVII.
Dauid for more securitie goeth againe to Achis king of Geth, 5. obtaineth
of him the citie of Siceleg, (6. by which meanes it becometh subiect to the
kinges of Iuda) 8. and maketh prayes vpon the enemies of King Achis.
1 And Dauid sayd in his hart: at length I shal fal one day
into the handes of Saul: is it not better that I flee, and
be saued in the Land of the Philistians, that Saul may despaire,
and cease to seeke me in al the coastes of Israel? I wil flee
therefore his handes.
2 And Dauid arose, and went himselfe,
and the six hundred men with him, to Achis the sonne of
Maoch, the King of Geth.
3 And Dauid dwelt with Achis
in Geth, he and his men; euerie man & his house, and his two
wiues, Achinoam the Iezrahelite, and Abigail the wife of
Nabal of Carmel.
4 And it was told Saul that Dauid was fled
into Geth, and he added no more to seeke him.
5 And Dauid
sayd to Achis: If I haue grace in thy sight, let there a place
be geuen me in one of thy cities of this countrie, that I may
dwel there: for why abideth thy seruant in the citie of the
king with thee?
6 Achis therefore gaue him in that day Siceleg:
for which cause Siceleg became the kinges of Iuda
vntil this day.
7 And the number of the daies, that Dauid
dwelt in the country of the Philistians, was foure monethes.
8 And Dauid went vp, and his men, and draue prayes out of
note Gessuri, and Gerzi, and from the Amalecites: for these villages
were inhabited in the land in old time, as men goe to
Sur, as farre as the Land of Ægypt.
9 And Dauid stroke al the
land, neither left he anie man or woman: and taking the
sheepe & oxen, and asses, & camels, and garments, he returned
& came to Achis.
10 And Achis sayd to him: Whom hast thou

Dauid. Saul.
set vpon to day? Dauid answered: Against the south of Iuda,
and against the south of Ieramiel, and against the south of
Ceni.
11 Dauid gaue life neither to man nor woman, neither
brought them into Geth, saying: Lest perhaps they speake
against vs. These thinges did Dauid, and this was decreed of
him al the daies that he dwelt in the countrie of the Philistians.
12 Achis therefore did credite Dauid, saying: Manie
euils hath he wrought against his people Israel: Therefore
he shal be my seruant for euer.
