1 Samuel 21:10-12

Good News Translation

¹⁰ So David left, fleeing from Saul, and went to King Achish of Gath. ^11 (A)The king's officials said to Achish, “Isn't this David, the king of his country? This is the man about whom the women sang, as they danced, ‘Saul has killed thousands, but David has killed tens of thousands.’”

^12 (B)Their words made a deep impression on David, and he became very much afraid of King Achish.
