1 Samuel 22:15-17

Contemporary English Version

¹⁵ This isn't the first time I've talked with God for David, and it's never made you angry before! Please don't accuse me or my family like this. I have no idea what's going on!”

¹⁶ “Ahimelech,” Saul said, “you and your whole family are going to die.”

¹⁷ Saul shouted to his bodyguards, “These priests of the Lord helped David! They knew he was running away, but they didn't tell me. Kill them!”

But the king's officers would not attack the priests of the Lord.
