3 E morou Davi com Aquis em Gate, ele e os seus, cada um com sua família: Davi com suas duas mulheres, Ainoã jezreelita, e Abigail, a que foi mulher de Nabal o do Carmelo.
4 E veio a nova a Saul que Davi se havia fugido a Gate, e não o buscou mais.
5 E Davi disse a Aquis: Se achei agora favor em teus olhos, seja-me dado lugar em algumas das cidades da terra, de onde eu habite; por que teu servo deverá morar contigo na cidade real?
6 E Aquis lhe deu aquele dia a Ziclague. De aqui foi Ziclague dos reis de Judá até hoje.
7 E foi o número dos dias que Davi habitou na terra dos filisteus, quatro meses e alguns dias.
