And David said unto Ahimelech, And is there not here under thine hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste.(1 Samuel 21:8)

And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take it: for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that; give it me.(1 Samuel 21:9)

And David arose and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.(1 Samuel 21:10)

And David laid up these words in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath.(1 Samuel 21:12)

And 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 upon his beard.(1 Samuel 21:13)

Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see the man is mad: wherefore then have ye brought him to me?(1 Samuel 21:14)
