New Century Version
2 David asked the Lord, “Should I go and fight these Philistines?”
The Lord answered him, “Go. Attack them, and save Keilah.”
3 But David’s men said to him, “We’re afraid here in Judah. We will be more afraid if we go to Keilah where the Philistine army is.”
4 David again asked the Lord, and the Lord answered, “Go down to Keilah. I will help you defeat the Philistines.”
