1 Samuel 22:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² And all that were in distress and oppressed with debt, and under affliction of mind gathered themselves unto him: and he became their prince, and there were with him about four hundred men.

³ And David departed from thence into Maspha of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab: Let my father and my mother tarry with you, I beseech thee, till I know what God will do for me.

⁴ And he left them under the eyes of the king of Moab, and they abode with him all the days that David was in the hold.
