1. David left Gath and escaped to the cave of Adullam. When his brothers and other relatives heard that he was there, they went to see him.
2. Everyone who was in trouble, or who owed money, or who was unsatisfied gathered around David, and he became their leader. About four hundred men were with him.
3. From there David went to Mizpah in Moab and spoke to the king of Moab. He said, “Please let my father and mother come and stay with you until I learn what God is going to do for me.”
