1 Samuel 22:14-16
New American Standard Bible 1995
14 (A)Then Ahimelech answered the king and said, “And who among all your servants is as faithful as David, even the king’s son-in-law, who [a]is captain over your guard, and is honored in your house? 15 Did I just begin (B)to inquire of God for him today? Far be it from me! (C)Do not let the king impute anything to his servant or to any of the household of my father, for your servant knows nothing [b]at all of this whole affair.” 16 But the king said, “You shall surely die, Ahimelech, you and all your father’s household!”

New International Version
14 Ahimelek answered the king, “Who(A) of all your servants is as loyal as David, the king’s son-in-law, captain of your bodyguard and highly respected in your household? 15 Was that day the first time I inquired of God for him? Of course not! Let not the king accuse your servant or any of his father’s family, for your servant knows nothing at all about this whole affair.”
16 But the king said, “You will surely die, Ahimelek, you and your whole family.(B)”
