1 Samuel 29:7-9

New Century Version

⁷ Go back in peace. Don’t do anything to displease the Philistine kings.”

⁸ David asked, “What wrong have I done? What evil have you found in me from the day I came to you until now? Why can’t I go fight your enemies, my lord and king?”

⁹ Achish answered, “I know you are as good as an angel from God. But the Philistine commanders have said, ‘David must not go with us into battle.’
