1 Samuel 23:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹ David learned that Saul was planning to attack him. So he said to Abiathar the priest, “Bring the linen apron.” ¹⁰ Then David said, “Lord, you are the God of Israel. I know for sure that Saul plans to come to Keilah. He plans to destroy the town because of me. ¹¹ Will the citizens of Keilah hand me over to him? Will Saul come down here, as I’ve heard he would? Lord, you are the God of Israel. Please answer me.”

The Lord said, “He will come down.”
