1 Now ait happened in those days that the Philistines gathered their armies together for war, to fight with Israel. And Achish said to David, “You assuredly know that you will go out with me to battle, you and your men.”
2 So David said to Achish, “Surely you know what your servant can do.” And Achish said to David, “Therefore I will make you one of my chief guardians forever.”
Saul Consults a Medium
3 Now aSamuel had died, and all Israel had lamented for him and buried him in bRamah, in his own city. And Saul had put cthe mediums and the spiritists out of the land.
4 Then the Philistines gathered together, and came and encamped at aShunem. So Saul gathered all Israel together, and they encamped at bGilboa.
5 When Saul saw the army of the Philistines, he was aafraid, and his heart trembled greatly.
6 And when Saul inquired of the Lord, athe Lord did not answer him, either by bdreams or cby Urim or by the prophets.
