*
And the servants of Achish said unto him ,
Is not this David the king of the land ?
did they not sing one to another of him in dances ,
saying ,
Saul hath slain his thousands ,
and David his ten thousands ?
*
And David laid up these words in his heart ,
and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath .
*
And he changed his behaviour before them ,
and feigned himself mad in their hands ,
and scrabbled on the doors of the gate sha #
ar #,
and let his spittle fall down upon his beard .
*
Then said Achish unto his servants ,
Lo ,
ye see the man is mad :
wherefore then have ye brought him to me ?
*
Have I need of mad men ,
that ye have brought this fellow to play the mad man in my presence ?
shall this fellow come into my house ?
