⁷ Then Saul attacked the Amalekites^(A) all the way from Havilah to Shur,^(B) near the eastern border of Egypt.

⁸ Now David and his men went up and raided the Geshurites,^(A) the Girzites and the Amalekites.^(B) (From ancient times these peoples had lived in the land extending to Shur^(C) and Egypt.)

⁴ But the Philistine commanders were angry with Achish and said, “Send^(A) the man back, that he may return to the place you assigned him. He must not go with us into battle, or he will turn^(B) against us during the fighting. How better could he regain his master’s favor than by taking the heads of our own men?

¹¹ So David and his men got up early in the morning to go back to the land of the Philistines, and the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
