1 Samuel 29:8-10
The Voice
This decision is certainly in David’s favor—could he really have gone to battle against Israel?—but he acts as though he is offended.
David: 8 What have I done to deserve this? Has your servant done anything since he entered your service to prevent him going out and fighting against my lord the king’s enemies?
Achish: 9 As I see it, you are no more to blame than a messenger of God, but the commanders of my troops have said they will not allow you to go into battle with us.
10 Get up early tomorrow morning with your lord’s servants, and return to the home I have given you in Ziklag. Rise early tomorrow, and go as soon as it is light.
