David answered, "Then you will see for yourself what your servant can do." Achish said to David, "I will make you my permanent bodyguard." (1 Samuel 28, 2)
Yahweh has done to you what he foretold through me. He has torn the kingdom from your hand and has given it to your neighbor, David. (1 Samuel 28, 17)
While the Philistine rulers went ahead of their groups of thousands and hundreds, David and his men were marching at the rear with Achish. (1 Samuel 29, 2)
The Philistine chiefs asked, "Who are these Hebrews?" Achish replied to the Philistine chiefs, "This is David, servant of Saul, king of Israel. He has been with me for over a year and since he fled to me up to the present day I have found no fault in him." (1 Samuel 29, 3)
Is this not the David for whom they danced and sang: Saul has slain his thousands, but David his tens of thousands?" (1 Samuel 29, 5)
So Achish called David and said to him, "As Yahweh lives, you are honest and I would like you to be with me in the camp for I have found nothing wrong in you since you came to me up to the present day. But you displease the lords. (1 Samuel 29, 6)
David asked Achish, "But what have I done? Have I done anything since I entered your service until the present time that would bar me from joining the fight against the enemies of my lord the king?" (1 Samuel 29, 8)
Achish replied to David, "I myself hold nothing against you, but the Philistine chiefs are determined not to allow you to join us in battle. (1 Samuel 29, 9)
So David and his men left early in the morning and returned to the land of the Philistines. The Philistines, in the meantime, went on to Jezreel. (1 Samuel 29, 11)
David and his men reached Ziklag on the third day, but the Amalekites had just raided the Negeb and Ziklag, storming it and burning it to the ground. (1 Samuel 30, 1)
When they reached the town, David and his men found it burned to the ground and their wives, sons and daughters taken captive. (1 Samuel 30, 3)
Then David and those with him wept aloud until they could weep no more. (1 Samuel 30, 4)
