17 |Turn and kill the LORD's priests because they support David,| the king said to the runners standing around him. |When they knew David was fleeing, they didn't inform me.| But the king's men refused to attack the LORD's priests. 18 So the king said to Doeg, |You turn and attack the priests.| Doeg from Edom turned and attacked the priests, and that day he killed 85 men wearing the linen priestly ephod. 19 He also killed the people of Nob, the city of the priests. Using [his] sword, he killed men and women, children and infants, cows, donkeys, and sheep. 1 Samuel 22:17-19, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
