“They are always ready to kill people.
David went to Nob to see Ahimelech the priest. Ahimelech shook with fear when he saw David, and he asked, “Why are you alone? Why is no one with you?”
Ahimelech prayed to the Lord for David and gave him food and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.”
Saul said to Ahimelech, “Listen now, son of Ahitub.” Ahimelech answered, “Yes, master.”
