13 And David said to his men, “Every man strap on his sword!” And every man of them strapped on his sword. David also strapped on his sword. And ^yabout four hundred men went up after David, while two hundred remained with the baggage.

2 So David arose and went over, he and ^tthe six hundred men who were with him, to Achish the son of Maoch, king of Gath.

9 So David set out, and ^uthe six hundred men who were with him, and they came to the brook Besor, where those who were left behind stayed.
