11 (12) And the avadim of Achish said unto him, Is not this Dovid Melech HaAretz? Did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Sha'ul hath slain his thousands, and Dovid his myriads?
12 (13) And Dovid laid up these devarim in his levav, and was very much afraid of Achish Melech Gat.
13 (14) And he changed his behavior before them, and feigned himself a madman in their hands, and scratched on the daletot hasha'ar, and let his spittle fall down upon his zakan (beard).
14 (15) Then said Achish unto his avadim, Hinei, ye see the man is meshugga; wherefore then have ye brought him to me?
15 (16) Have I need of meshugga'im, that ye have brought this one to play the meshugga in my presence? Shall this one come into my bais?
