1 Samuel 22:6-8

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁶ Saul heard that David and his men had been discovered. At that time Saul was in Gibeah, sitting under the tamarisk tree^(A) at the high place. His spear was in his hand, and all his servants were standing around him. ⁷ Saul said to his servants, “Listen, men of Benjamin: Is Jesse’s son going to give all of you fields and vineyards? Do you think he’ll make all of you commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds?^{(B) 8} That’s why all of you have conspired against me! Nobody tells me^[a] when my own son makes a covenant with Jesse’s son.^(C) None of you cares about me^(D) or tells me^[b] that my son has stirred up my own servant to wait in ambush for me, as is the case today.”
