← 1 Samuel 21:9	1 Samuel 21:10 (KJV)	1 Samuel 21:11 →
And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Elah, behold, it [is here] wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take [it]: for [there is] no other save that here. And David said, [There is] none like that; give it me.	And David arose, and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.	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?
