1 Samuel 29:8-10

International Standard Version

⁸ David told Achish, “What have I done, and what have you found in your servant from the time I came before you until this very moment,^[a] that I shouldn’t go out and fight the enemies of your majesty?”^[b]

⁹ Achish answered David, “I know that I’m pleased with you. You’re^[c] like an angel of God. But the Philistine leaders have said, ‘He mustn’t go into battle with us.’ ¹⁰ Now, get up early in the morning along with your lord’s servants who came with you.^[d] Get up early in the morning, and go as soon as you have light.”
