Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and Ahimelech was afraid at the meeting of David, and said unto him, Why {art} thou alone, and no man with thee? {Ahimelech: also called Ahiah}

Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor Anathoth. {Lift...: Heb. Cry shrill with}

Anathoth with her suburbs, and Almon with her suburbs; four cities. {Almon: also called, Alemeth}

The men of Anathoth, an hundred twenty and eight.

And Nob, the city of the priests, smote he with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, and oxen, and asses, and sheep, with the edge of the sword.

The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that {were} in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:

As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he shall shake his hand {against} the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and Ahimelech was afraid at the meeting of David, and said unto him, Why {art} thou alone, and no man with thee? {Ahimelech: also called Ahiah}

And Nob, the city of the priests, smote he with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, and oxen, and asses, and sheep, with the edge of the sword.

As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he shall shake his hand {against} the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
