1 So the Philistines were gathered together with all their armies in Aphec: and the Israelites pytched by Ain, which is in Iezrael. 2 And the princes of the Philistines went foorth by hundreds and thousandes: But Dauid and his men came behinde with Achis. 3 The sayd the princes of the Philistines, what do these Ebrues here ? Achis said vnto the princes of the Philistines: Is not this Dauid, the seruaunt of Saul the king of Israel, which hath ben with me these dayes, or these yeres, and I haue found no fault in him, since he fell vnto me, vnto this day? 4 And the princes of the Philistines were wroth with hym, and the princes of the Philistines sayde vnto hym: Make this felowe returne, that he may go againe to his place which thou hast appoynted hym, and let hym not go downe with vs to battayle, lest in the battayle he be an aduersarie to vs: For wherewith shoulde he obtayne the fauour of his maister? shoulde it not be with the heades of these men? 1 Samuel 29:1-4, Bishops' Bible of 1568.
