10¶ And Dauid arose, and fled that day, for feare of Saul, and went to Achish, the king of Gath. 11And the seruants of Achish sayd vnto him, Is not this Dauid the king of the land? Did they not sing one to another of him in daunces, saying, Saul hath slaine his thousands, and Dauid his ten thousands? 12And Dauid layd vp these wordes in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath. 13And he changed his behauiour before them, and fained himselfe mad in their hands, and scrabled on the doores of the gate, and let his spittle fall downe vpon his beard. 14Then saide Achish vnto his seruants, Loe, you see the man is mad: wherefore then haue yee brought him to mee?
