1 Samuel 27:5

Back to Verses

And David said unto Achish, If I have now found grace in thine eyes, let them give me a place in some town in the country, that I may dwell there: for why should thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee?

David asked Achish, "If you like me now, please let me live in a town in the countryside. Why should I stay in your royal city?"
