1 Samuel 27:4 in context

  1. 2David arose, and passed over, he and the six hundred men who were with him, to Achish the son of Maoch, king of Gath.
  2. 3David lived with Achish at Gath, he and his men, every man with his household, even David with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the Carmelitess, Nabal’s wife.
  3. 4Saul was told that David had fled to Gath: and he sought no more again for him.
  4. 5David said to Achish, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, let them give me a place in one of the cities in the country, that I may dwell there. For why should your servant dwell in the royal city with you?”
  5. 6Then Achish gave him Ziklag that day: therefore Ziklag belongs to the kings of Judah to this day.
