1 Samuel 21:1-3

Jubilee Bible 2000

21 ¶ Then David came to Nob to Ahimelech, the priest, and Ahimelech was afraid at the meeting of David and said unto him, Why art thou alone, and no one with thee?

² And David said unto Ahimelech, the priest, The king has commanded me a business and has said unto me, Let no one know anything of this business about which I send thee and what I have commanded thee, and I have appointed my servants to a certain place.

³ Now, therefore, what is under thy hand? Give me five loaves of bread in my hand or what there is present.
