20 And one of the sons of Aḥimeleḵ son of Aḥituḇ, named Eḇyathar, escaped and fled after Dawiḏ.
21 And Eḇyathar reported to Dawiḏ that Sha’ul had slain the priests of יהוה.
22 And Dawiḏ said to Eḇyathar, “I knew that day, when Do’ĕg̅ the Eḏomite was there, that he would certainly inform Sha’ul. I am accountable for all the lives of your father’s house.
23 “Remain with me, do not fear. For he who seeks my life seeks your life, but with me you are safe.”
