And David said in his heart, I shall now perish one day by the Hand of Saul: there is nothing better for me than that I should speedily escape into the land of the Philistines; and Saul shall despair of me, to seek me any more in any coast of Israel: so shall I escape out of his Hand.
And the LORD hath done to him, as he spake by me: for the LORD hath rent the kingdom out of thine Hand, and given it to thy neighbour, even to David:
Moreover the LORD will also deliver Israel with thee into the Hand of the Philistines: and to morrow shalt thou and thy sons be with me: the LORD also shall deliver the host of Israel into the Hand of the Philistines.
And the woman came unto Saul, and saw that he was sore troubled, and said unto him, Behold, thine handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my Hand, and have hearkened unto thy words which thou spakest unto me.

Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ishbosheth, and said, Am I a dog's head, which against Judah do shew kindness this day unto the house of Saul thy father, to his brethren, and to his friends, and have not delivered thee into the Hand of David, that thou chargest me to day with a fault concerning this woman?
