David and the six hundred men with him came to the Besor Valley, where some stayed behind.
All his men marched past him, along with all the Kerethites and Pelethites; and all the six hundred Gittites who had accompanied him from Gath marched before the king.
David also took the men who were with him, each with his family, and they settled in Hebron and its towns.
So David and the six hundred men with him left and went over to Achish son of Maok king of Gath.
Two hundred of them were too exhausted to cross the valley, but David and the other four hundred continued the pursuit.
