WEBVTT 00:00.740 --> 00:05.820 Chapter 29 Now the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek, 00:06.120 --> 00:08.860 and the Israelites pitched by a fountain which is in Jezreel. 00:09.240 --> 00:13.600 And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds and by thousands, but David 00:13.600 --> 00:16.120 and his men passed on in the rearward with Achish. 00:16.920 --> 00:20.460 Then said the princes of the Philistines, What do these Hebrews hear? 00:20.700 --> 00:24.140 And Achish said unto the princes of the Philistines, Is not this David, 00:24.280 --> 00:28.720 the servant of Saul, the king of Israel, which hath been with me these days, 00:29.060 --> 00:29.880 or these years? 00:30.220 --> 00:34.440 And I have found no fault in him since he fell unto me unto this day. 00:34.840 --> 00:37.020 And the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him. 00:37.380 --> 00:40.740 And the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Make this fellow return, 00:40.860 --> 00:44.600 that he may go again to his place which thou hast appointed him, and let him not 00:44.600 --> 00:48.740 go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he be an adversary to us. 00:49.280 --> 00:51.980 For wherewith should he reconcile himself unto his master? 00:52.560 --> 00:54.540 Should it not be with the heads of these men? 00:54.540 --> 01:00.460 Is not this David, of whom they sang one to another in dances, saying, Saul slew 01:00.460 --> 01:03.220 his thousands, and David his ten thousands? 01:03.640 --> 01:08.540 Then Achish called David, and said unto him, Surely, as the Lord liveth, 01:08.840 --> 01:14.460 thou hast been upright, and thy going out and thy coming in with me in the host is 01:14.460 --> 01:15.660 good in my sight. 01:16.420 --> 01:20.900 For I have not found evil in thee since the day of thy coming unto me unto this 01:20.900 --> 01:21.160 day. 01:21.980 --> 01:24.960 Nevertheless, the lords favor thee not. 01:25.800 --> 01:30.760 Wherefore now return, and go in peace, that thou displease not the lords of the 01:30.760 --> 01:31.420 Philistines. 01:31.680 --> 01:34.100 And David said unto Achish, But what have I done? 01:34.700 --> 01:37.860 And what hast thou found in thy servants so long as I have been with thee unto this 01:37.860 --> 01:41.780 day, that I may not go fight against the enemies of my lord the king? 01:42.080 --> 01:46.740 And Achish answered, and said to David, I know that thou art good in my sight, 01:47.100 --> 01:48.560 as an angel of God. 01:49.580 --> 01:54.180 Notwithstanding the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up 01:54.180 --> 01:55.300 with us to the battle. 01:56.100 --> 02:01.040 Wherefore now rise up early in the morning with thy master's servants, that are come 02:01.040 --> 02:01.500 with thee. 02:01.880 --> 02:06.940 And as soon as ye be up early in the morning, and have light, depart. 02:07.640 --> 02:12.000 So David and his men rose up early to depart in the morning, to return into the 02:12.000 --> 02:12.940 land of the Philistines. 02:13.380 --> 02:15.200 And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
