1 Samuel 22:3-5
English Standard Version
3 And David went from there to Mizpeh of Moab. And he said to the king of Moab, “Please let my father and my mother stay[a] with you, till I know what God will do for me.” 4 And he left them with the king of Moab, and they stayed with him all the time that David was in the stronghold. 5 Then the prophet (A)Gad said to David, “Do not remain in the stronghold; depart, and go into the land of Judah.” So David departed and went into the forest of Hereth.
