09:022:021 And Abiathar shewed David that Saul had slain the LORD’s
           priests.

09:022:022 And David said unto Abiathar, I knew it that day, when Doeg
           the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul:  I have
           occasioned the death of all the persons of thy father’s house.

09:022:023 Abide thou with me, fear not:  for he that seeketh my life
           seeketh thy life:  but with me thou shalt be in safeguard.

09:023:001 Then they told David, saying, Behold, the Philistines fight
           against Keilah, and they rob the threshingfloors.

09:023:002 Therefore David enquired of the lord, saying, Shall I go and
           smite these Philistines?  And the lord said unto David, Go, and
           smite the Philistines, and save Keilah.

09:023:003 And David’s men said unto him, Behold, we be afraid here in
           Judah:  how much more then if we come to Keilah against the
           armies of the Philistines?

09:023:004 Then David enquired of the lord yet again.  And the lord
           answered him and said, Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will
           deliver the Philistines into thine hand.

09:023:005 So David and his men went to Keilah, and fought with the
           Philistines, and brought away their cattle, and smote them
           with a great slaughter.  So David saved the inhabitants of
           Keilah.

09:023:006 And it came to pass, when Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled
           to David to Keilah, that he came down with an ephod in his
           hand.

09:023:007 And it was told Saul that David was come to Keilah.  And Saul
           said, God hath delivered him into mine hand; for he is shut
           in, by entering into a town that hath gates and bars.

09:023:008 And Saul called all the people together to war, to go down to
           Keilah, to besiege David and his men.

09:023:009 And David knew that Saul secretly practised mischief against
           him; and he said to Abiathar the priest, Bring hither the
           ephod.

09:023:010 Then said David, O lord God of Israel, thy servant hath
           certainly heard that Saul seeketh to come to Keilah, to
           destroy the city for my sake.

09:023:011 Will the men of Keilah deliver me up into his hand? will Saul
           come down, as thy servant hath heard?  O lord God of Israel, I
           beseech thee, tell thy servant.  And the lord said, He will
           come down.

09:023:012 Then said David, Will the men of Keilah deliver me and my men
           into the hand of Saul?  And the lord said, They will deliver
           thee up.

09:023:013 Then David and his men, which were about six hundred, arose
           and departed out of Keilah, and went whithersoever they could
           go.  And it was told Saul that David was escaped from Keilah;
           and he forbare to go forth.
