1 | Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and Ahimelech came to meet David trembling, and said to him, Why are you alone, and no man with you? | 1Sa 22:19 Ne 11:32 Isa 10:32 |
2 | David said to Ahimelech the priest, The king has commanded me a business, and has said to me, Let no man know anything of the business about which I send you, and what I have commanded you: and I have appointed the young men to such and such a place. | 1Sa 19:17 1Sa 22:22 Gn 27:20 Gn 27:24 1Ki 13:18 Ps 119:29 Ga 2:12 Col 3:9 |
3 | Now therefore what is under your hand? give me five loaves of bread in my hand, or whatever there is present. | 1Sa 21:4 Jg 9:29 Isa 3:6 |
4 | The priest answered David, and said, There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women. | 1Sa 21:6 Ex 25:30 Lv 24:5-9 Mt 12:3 Mt 12:4 |
5 | David answered the priest, and said to him, Of a truth women have been kept from us about these three days; when I came out, the vessels of the young men were holy, though it was but a common journey; how much more then today shall their vessels be holy? | Ac 9:15 1Th 4:3 1Th 4:4 2Ti 2:20 2Ti 2:21 1Pe 3:17 |
6 | So the priest gave him holy [bread]; for there was no bread there but the show bread, that was taken from before Yahweh, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away. | Mt 12:3 Mt 12:4 Mk 2:25-27 Lk 6:3 Lk 6:4 |
7 | Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before Yahweh; and his name was Doeg the Edomite, the best of the herdsmen who belonged to Saul. | Jer 7:9-11 Ezk 33:31 Am 8:5 Mt 15:8 Ac 21:26 Ac 21:27 |
8 | David said to Ahimelech, Isn`t there here under your hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king`s business required haste. |
9 | The priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the vale of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if you will take that, take it; for there is no other except that here. David said, There is none like that; give it me. | 1Sa 17:51-54 |
10 | David arose, and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath. | 1Sa 27:1 1Ki 19:3 Jer 26:21 |
11 | The servants of Achish said to him, "Isn`t this David the king of the land? Didn`t they sing one to another about him in dances, saying, `Saul has slain his thousands, David his ten thousands?`" | Ps 56:1 |
12 | David laid up these words in his heart, and was very afraid of Achish the king of Gath. | Ps 119:11 Lk 2:19 Lk 2:51 |
13 | He changed his behavior before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down on his beard. | Ps 34:1 Pr 29:25 Ec 7:7 |
14 | Then said Achish to his servants, Look, you see the man is mad; why then have you brought him to me? | Ec 7:7 |
15 | Do I lack madmen, that you have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house? |
