9And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you put to death in the valley of Elah, is here folded in a cloth at the back of the ephod: take that, if you will, for there is no other sword here. And David said, there is no other sword like that; give it to me.
10Then David got up and went in flight that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish, the king of Gath.
11And the servants of Achish said to him, Is not this David, the king of the land? did they not make songs about him in their dances, saying, Saul has put to death thousands, and David tens of thousands?
12And David took these words to heart, fearing Achish, the king of Gath.
13So changing his behaviour before them, he made it seem as if he was off his head, hammering on the doors of the town, and letting the water from his mouth go down his chin.
14Then Achish said to his servants, Look! the man is clearly off his head; why have you let him come before me?
15Are there not enough unbalanced men about me, that you have let this person come and do such tricks before me? is such a man to come into my house?
