1 Samuel 29:7-11 Good News Bible (GNB)

7. So go back home in peace, and don't do anything that would displease them.”

8. David answered, “What have I done wrong, sir? If, as you say, you haven't found any fault in me since the day I started serving you, why shouldn't I go with you, my master and king, and fight your enemies?”

9. “I agree,” Achish replied. “I consider you as loyal as an angel of God. But the other kings have said that you can't go with us into battle.

10. So then, David, tomorrow morning all of you who left Saul and came over to me will have to get up early and leave as soon as it's light.”

11. So David and his men started out early the following morning to go back to Philistia, and the Philistines went on to Jezreel.
