1. One day news came to David that the Philistines were at Keilah stealing grain from the threshing floors. 2. David asked the LORD, "Should I go and attack them?" "Yes, go and save Keilah," The LORD told him. 3. But David's men said, "We're afraid even here in Judah. We certainly don't want to go to Keilah to fight the whole Philistine army!" 4. So Daivd asked the LORD again, and again the LORD replied, "Go down to Keilah, for I will help you conquer the Philistines." 5. So David and his men went to Keilah. They slaughtered the Philistines and took all their livestock and rescued the people of Keilah. 6. Now when Abiathar son of Ahimelech fled to David at Keilah, he brought the ephod with him. 7. Saul soon learned that David was at Keilah. "Good!" he exclaimed. "We've got him now! God has handed him over to me for he has trapped himself in a walled town!" 8. So Saul mobilized his entire army to march to Keilah and besiege David and his men. 9. But David learned of Saul's plan and told Abiathar the priest to bring the ephod and ask the LORD what he should do. 10. Then David prayed, "O LORD, God of Israel, I have heard that Saul is planning to come and destroy Keilah because I am here. 11. Will the leaders of Keilah betray me to him? And will Saul actually come as I have heard? O LORD, God of Isreal, please tell me. And the LORD said, "He will come." 12. Again David asked, "Will the leaders of Keilah betray me and my men to Saul?" And the LORD replied, "Yes, they will betray you."' 1 Samuel 23:1-12 NLT 4.
