2. So David left and crossed over to King Achish son of Maoch of Gath accompanied by his six hundred men.
3. David settled with Achish in Gath, along with his men and their families. David had with him his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelite and Abigail the Carmelite, Nabal’s widow.
4. When Saul learned that David had fled to Gath, he did not mount a new search for him.
5. David said to Achish, “If I have found favor with you, let me be given a place in one of the country towns so that I can live there. Why should your servant settle in the royal city with you?”
