1 Samuel 27:1-2

Wycliffe Bible

27 And David said in his heart, Sometime I shall fall in one day in the hand of Saul (One day I shall fall by Saul’s hand); whether it is not better, that I flee, and be saved in the land of (the) Philistines, (so) that Saul despair, and cease to seek me in all the ends of Israel; therefore flee we his hands.

² And (so) David rose up, and went forth, he and six hundred men with him, to Achish, the son of Maoch, king of Gath.
