^12 (13) And Dovid laid up these devarim in his levav, and was very much afraid of Achish Melech Gat.

^13 (14) And he changed his behavior before them, and feigned himself a madman in their hands, and scratched on the daletot hasha’ar, and let his spittle fall down upon his zakan (beard).

^14 (15) Then said Achish unto his avadim, Hinei, ye see the man is meshugga; wherefore then have ye brought him to me?
