1 Samuel 23:6-9
La Bible du Semeur
6 Il faut dire que quand Abiatar, fils d’Ahimélek, s’était enfui auprès de David à Qeïla, il avait emporté avec lui l’éphod servant à consulter l’Eternel.
7 On fit savoir à Saül que David était allé à Qeïla ; alors il s’écria : Dieu l’a livré en mon pouvoir, car il s’est lui-même enfermé dans un piège en entrant dans une ville qui a des portes et des verrous.
8 Il mobilisa tous ses hommes pour marcher sur Qeïla et assiéger David et sa troupe. 9 David apprit quel mauvais dessein Saül méditait contre lui. Aussi demanda-t-il au prêtre Abiatar d’apporter l’éphod.
