1 Samuel 21:8-10

Good News Translation

⁸ David said to Ahimelech, “Do you have a spear or a sword you can give me? The king's orders made me leave in such a hurry that I didn't have time to get my sword or any other weapon.”

^9 (A)Ahimelech answered, “I have the sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in Elah Valley; it is behind the ephod, wrapped in a cloth. If you want it, take it—it's the only weapon here.”

“Give it to me,” David said. “There is not a better sword anywhere!”

¹⁰ So David left, fleeing from Saul, and went to King Achish of Gath.
