The lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds and by thousands; and David and his men passed on in the rear with Achish.

About that time the Philistines mustered their armies for another war with Israel. King Achish told David,“ You and your men will be expected to join me in battle.”“ Very well!” David agreed.“ Now you will see for yourself what we can do.” Then Achish told David,“ I will make you my personal bodyguard for life.”

So Achish finally summoned David and said to him,“ I swear by the Lord that you have been a trustworthy ally. I think you should go with me into battle, for I’ve never found a single flaw in you from the day you arrived until today. But the other Philistine rulers won’t hear of it.Please don’t upset them, but go back quietly.”

So they called together the rulers of the Philistine towns and asked,“ What should we do with the Ark of the God of Israel?” The rulers discussed it and replied,“ Move it to the town of Gath.” So they moved the Ark of the God of Israel to Gath.But when the Ark arrived at Gath, the Lord’s heavy hand fell on its men, young and old; he struck them with a plague of tumors, and there was a great panic.So they sent the Ark of God to the town of Ekron, but when the people of Ekron saw it coming they cried out,“ They are bringing the Ark of the God of Israel here to kill us, too!”The people summoned the Philistine rulers again and begged them,“ Please send the Ark of the God of Israel back to its own country, or it will kill us all.” For the deadly plague from God had already begun, and great fear was sweeping across the town.

“ What sort of guilt offering should we send?” they asked. And they were told,“ Since the plague has struck both you and your five rulers, make five gold tumors and five gold rats, just like those that have ravaged your land.
