1 Samuel 27:12 In-Context

10 And Achish said, "Against whom have you raided today?" David said, "Against the Negev of Judah and against the Negev of the Jerahmeelites and against the Negev of the Kenites."
11 And David did not leave alive a man or a woman to bring [them back] to Gath, thinking, "So that they will not report about us, saying, 'David did thus and so.'" Thus was his practice all the days that he lived in the countryside of [the] Philistines.
12 And Achish trusted David, saying, "{He has made himself utterly hated} among his people in Israel, and he will be my servant forever."
