— 1 Samuel 23:9, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And David knew that Saul secretly practised mischief against him; and he said to Abiathar the priest, Bring hither the ephod.”
“And David knew that Saul was devising mischief against him; and he said to Abiathar the priest, Bring hither the ephod. ”
“David knew that Saul was devising mischief against him; and he said to Abiathar the priest, "Bring the ephod here."”
“When David realized that Saul was planning to harm him, he told Abiathar the priest,“Bring the ephod!””
“Now when David understood that Saul secretly prepared evil against him, he said to Abiathar, the priest: Bring hither the ephod.”
“And it was clear to David that Saul had evil designs against him, and he said to Abiathar the priest, Come here with the ephod.”
“And David knew that Saul secretly practised mischief against him; and he said to Abiathar the priest, Bring hither the ephod.”
And in that time, when Abiathar, the son of Ahimelech, was in exile with David, he had descended to Keilah, having an ephod with him.
Then it was reported to Saul that David had gone to Keilah. And Saul said: “The Lord has delivered him into my hands. For he is enclosed, having entered into a city which has gates and bars.”
And Saul instructed all the people to descend in order to fight against Keilah, and to besiege David and his men.
And when David had realized that Saul had secretly prepared evil against him, he said to Abiathar, the priest, “Bring the ephod.”
And David said: “O Lord God of Israel, your servant has heard a report that Saul is planning to go to Keilah, so that he may overturn the city because of me.
Will the men of Keilah deliver me into his hands? And will Saul descend, just as your servant has heard? O Lord God of Israel, reveal to your servant.” And the Lord said, “He will descend.”
And David said, “Will the men of Keilah deliver me, and the men who are with me, into the hands of Saul?” And the Lord said, “They will deliver you.”
