⁸ And David and his men went up and raided ^(A)the Geshurites, ^(B)the ^[a]Girzites, and the ^(C)Amalekites. For those nations were the inhabitants of the land from ^[b]of old, ^(D)as you go to Shur, even as far as the land of Egypt. ⁹ Whenever David ^[c]attacked the land, he left neither man nor woman alive, but took away the sheep, the oxen, the donkeys, the camels, and the apparel, and returned and came to Achish. ¹⁰ Then Achish would say, “Where have you made a raid today?” And David would say, “Against the southern area of Judah, or against the southern area of ^(E)the Jerahmeelites, or against the southern area of ^(F)the Kenites.” ¹¹ David would save neither man nor woman alive, to bring news to Gath, saying, “Lest they should inform on us, saying, ‘Thus David did.’ ” And thus was his behavior all the time he dwelt in the country of the Philistines.
