1 Samuel 21:11 in Context — 1 Samuel 21
9 Le sacrificateur répondit: Voici l’épée de Goliath, le Philistin, que tu as tué dans la vallée des térébinthes; elle est enveloppée dans un drap, derrière l’éphod; si tu veux la prendre, prends-la, car il n’y en a pas d’autre ici. Et David dit: Il n’y en a point de pareille; donne-la-moi.
10 David se leva et s’enfuit le même jour loin de Saül. Il arriva chez Akisch, roi de Gath.
11 Les serviteurs d’Akisch lui dirent: N’est-ce pas là David, roi du pays? N’est-ce pas celui pour qui l’on chantait en dansant: Saül a frappé ses mille, Et David ses dix mille?
12 David prit à cœur ces paroles, et il eut une grande crainte d’Akisch, roi de Gath.
13 Il se montra comme fou à leurs yeux, et fit devant eux des extravagances; il faisait des marques sur les battants des portes, et il laissait couler sa salive sur sa barbe.
