1 Samuel 22:1

David’s Four Hundred Men

1 David therefore departed from there and ^aescaped ^bto the cave of Adullam. So when his brothers and all his father’s house heard it, they went down there to him.

2 ^aAnd everyone who was in distress, everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was¹ discontented gathered to him. So he became captain over them. And there were about ^bfour hundred men with him.

3 Then David went from there to Mizpah of ^aMoab; and he said to the king of Moab, “Please let my father and mother come here with you, till I know what God will do for me.”

4 So he brought them before the king of Moab, and they dwelt with him all the time that David was in the stronghold.
