Contemporary English Version

¹⁰ David prayed, “Lord God of Israel, I was told that Saul is planning to come here. What should I do? Suppose he threatens to destroy the town because of me. ¹¹ Would the leaders of Keilah turn me over to Saul? Or is he really coming? Please tell me, Lord.”

“Yes, he will come,” the Lord answered.

¹² David asked, “Would the leaders of Keilah hand me and my soldiers over to Saul?”
