So the dead that he killed at his death were more than those who he killed in his life.1 Samuel 4:6When the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, “What does the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews mean?” They understood that the ark of Yahweh had come into the camp.1 Samuel 5:8They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the Philistines to them, and said, “What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel?” They answered, “Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried over to Gath.” They carried the ark of the God of Israel there.1 Samuel 5:11They sent therefore and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and they said, “Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to its own place, that it not kill us and our people.” For there was a deadly confusion throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.1 Samuel 6:4Then they said, “What shall be the trespass offering which we shall return to him?” They said, “Five golden tumors, and five golden mice, for the number of the lords of the Philistines; for one plague was on you all, and on your lords.1 Samuel 6:12The cows took the straight way by the way to Beth Shemesh; they went along the highway, lowing as they went, and didn’t turn aside to the right hand or to the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after them to the border of Beth Shemesh.1 Samuel 7:7When the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gathered together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. When the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.1 Samuel 9:16“Tomorrow about this time I will send you a man out of the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him to be prince over my people Israel; and he shall save my people out of the hand of the Philistines: for I have looked on my people, because their cry has come to me.”1 Samuel 13:5The Philistines assembled themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the seashore in multitude: and they came up, and encamped in Michmash, eastward of Beth Aven.1 Samuel 18:22Saul commanded his servants, “Talk with David secretly, and say, ‘Behold, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you: now therefore be the king’s son-in-law.’”1 Samuel 18:23Saul’s servants spoke those words in the ears of David. David said, “Does it seems to you a light thing to be the king’s son-in-law, since I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?”1 Samuel 18:24The servants of Saul told him, saying, “David spoke like this.”1 Samuel 18:25Saul said, “You shall tell David, ‘The king desires no dowry except one hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king’s enemies.’” Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.1 Samuel 18:26When his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king’s son-in-law. The days were not expired;1 Samuel 18:27and David arose and went, he and his men, and killed of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might be the king’s son-in-law. Saul gave him Michal his daughter as wife.1 Samuel 18:28Saul saw and knew that Yahweh was with David; and Michal, Saul’s daughter, loved him.1 Samuel 18:29Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul was David’s enemy continually.1 Samuel 18:30Then the princes of the Philistines went forth: and it happened, as often as they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was highly esteemed.1 Samuel 21:10David arose, and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.1 Samuel 21:11The servants of Achish said to him, “Isn’t this David the king of the land? Didn’t they sing one to another about him in dances, saying, ‘Saul has slain his thousands, David his ten thousands?’”1 Samuel 21:12David laid up these words in his heart, and was very afraid of Achish the king of Gath.1 Samuel 21:13He changed his behavior before them, and pretended to be mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down on his beard.1 Samuel 21:14Then Achish said to his servants, “Look, you see the man is mad. Why then have you brought him to me?1 Samuel 21:15Do I lack madmen, that you have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? Shall this fellow come into my house?”1 Samuel 27:2David arose, and passed over, he and the six hundred men who were with him, to Achish the son of Maoch, king of Gath.1 Samuel 27:3David lived with Achish at Gath, he and his men, every man with his household, even David with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the Carmelitess, Nabal’s wife.1 Samuel 27:4It was told Saul that David was fled to Gath: and he sought no more again for him.1 Samuel 27:5David said to Achish, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, let them give me a place in one of the cities in the country, that I may dwell there. For why should your servant dwell in the royal city with you?”1 Samuel 27:6Then Achish gave him Ziklag that day: why Ziklag pertains to the kings of Judah to this day.1 Samuel 27:7The number of the days that David lived in the country of the Philistines was a full year and four months.1 Samuel 27:8David and his men went up, and made a raid on the Geshurites, and the Girzites, and the Amalekites; for those were the inhabitants of the land, who were of old, as you go to Shur, even to the land of Egypt.1 Samuel 27:9David struck the land, and saved neither man nor woman alive, and took away the sheep, and the cattle, and the donkeys, and the camels, and the clothing; and he returned, and came to Achish.1 Samuel 27:10Achish said, “Against whom have you made a raid today?” David said, “Against the South of Judah, against the South of the Jerahmeelites, and against the South of the Kenites.”1 Samuel 27:11David saved neither man nor woman alive, to bring them to Gath, saying, “Lest they should tell of us, saying, ‘David this, and this has been his way all the time he has lived in the country of the Philistines.’”1 Samuel 27:12Achish believed David, saying, “He has made his people Israel utterly to abhor him. Therefore he shall be my servant forever.”1 Samuel 28:1It happened in those days, that the Philistines gathered their armies together for warfare, to fight with Israel. Achish said to David, “Know assuredly that you shall go out with me in the army, you and your men.”1 Samuel 28:2David said to Achish, “Therefore you shall know what your servant will do.” Achish said to David, “Therefore will I make you my bodyguard for ever.”1 Samuel 29:2The lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and by thousands; and David and his men passed on in the rear with Achish.1 Samuel 29:6Then Achish called David, and said to him, “As Yahweh lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the army is good in my sight; for I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming to me to this day. Nevertheless, the lords don’t favor you.1 Samuel 29:7Therefore now return, and go in peace, that you not displease the lords of the Philistines.”1 Samuel 30:14We made a raid on the South of the Cherethites, and on that which belongs to Judah, and on the South of Caleb; and we burned Ziklag with fire.”1 Samuel 30:15David said to him, “Will you bring me down to this troop?” He said, “Swear to me by God that you will neither kill me, nor deliver me up into the hands of my master, and I will bring you down to this troop.”1 Samuel 30:16When he had brought him down, behold, they were spread around over all the ground, eating, drinking, and dancing, because of all the great spoil that they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.2 Samuel 5:17When the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the stronghold.2 Samuel 5:18Now the Philistines had come and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.2 Samuel 5:19David inquired of Yahweh, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand?” Yahweh said to David, “Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into your hand.”2 Samuel 5:20David came to Baal Perazim, and David struck them there; and he said, “Yahweh has broken my enemies before me, like the breach of waters.” Therefore he called the name of that place Baal Perazim.2 Samuel 5:21They left their images there; and David and his men took them away.2 Samuel 5:22The Philistines came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.2 Samuel 5:23When David inquired of Yahweh, he said, “You shall not go up. Circle around behind them, and attack them over against the mulberry trees.
