David Saves Keilah

23 Then they told David, saying, “Behold, the Philistines are fighting against ^(A)Keilah and are pillaging the threshing floors.” ² So David ^(B)asked of Yahweh, saying, “Shall I go and strike these Philistines?” And Yahweh said to David, “Go and strike the Philistines and save Keilah.” ³ But David’s men said to him, “Behold, we are afraid here in Judah. How much more then if we go to Keilah against the battle lines of the Philistines?”
