5 Then David (beloved) set out and went to the place where Saul (desired) had camped. He saw the place where Saul and Abner (my father is a lamp) son of Ner (lamp), the general of his army, had lain down. Saul was lying inside the inner circle of the camp, with the troops camped around him.

6 And David (beloved) asked Ahimelech (my brother is king) the Hittite and Abishai (my father is a gift) son of Zeruiah (balsam), Joab’s (YHWH is father) brother, “Who will go down with me to Saul (desired) in the camp?” “I will go with you,” answered Abishai.

7 That night David (beloved) and Abishai (my father is a gift) came to the troops, and Saul (desired) was lying there asleep in the inner circle of the camp, with his spear stuck in the ground by his head. And Abner (my father is a lamp) and the troops were lying around him.
