In context
10 Daudi aliamka na kukimbia mbali na Sauli na akaenda kwa Akishi, mfalme wa Gathi.
11 Mtumishi wa Akishi akamwambia, “huyu siye Daudi mfalme wa nchi hii? Je, wanawake hawakupokezana wakiimba na kucheza, 'Sauli ameua maelfu yake, na Daudi makumi elfu yake?”'
12 Daudi akayaweka maneno hayo moyoni mwake na akamwogopa sana Akishi, mfalme wa Gathi.
13 Daudi akabadili mwenendo wake mbele yao na akajifanya kuwa mwendawazimu machoni pao; akachora-chora alama kwenye vizingiti vya milango huku akitiririsha mate yake chini ya ndevu zake.
14 Ndipo Akishi akawaambia watumishi wake, “Tazameni, mnaona mtu huyu ni mwehu.
15 Kwa nini mmemleta kwangu? Je, mimi nina haja na wehu, kumbe mmemleta mtu huyu ili anifanyie hayo mbele yangu? Hivi kweli huyu ataingia nyumbani mwangu?
