1 Samuel 22:1-3

New International Reader's Version

David at Adullam and Mizpah

22 David left Gath and escaped to the cave of Adullam. His brothers and the other members of his family heard about it. So they went down to join him there. ² Everyone who was in trouble or owed money or was unhappy gathered around him. He became their commander. About 400 men were with him.

³ From there David went to Mizpah in Moab. He spoke to the king of Moab. He said, “Please let my father and mother come and stay with you. Let them stay until I learn what God will do for me.”
