Kings I 29:4

4 And the captains of the Philistines were displeased at him, and they say to him, Send the man away, and let him return to his place, where thou didst set him; and let him not come with us to the war, and let him not be a traitor in the camp: and wherewith will he be reconciled to his master? Will it not be with the heads of those men?

2 And the lords of the Philistines went on by hundreds and thousands, and David and his men went on in the rear with Anchus.

3 And the lords of the Philistines said, Who these that pass by? And Anchus said to the captains of the Philistines, not this David the servant of Saul king of Israel? He has been with us some time, even this second year, and I have not found any fault in him from the day that he attached himself to me even until this day.

4 And the captains of the Philistines were displeased at him, and they say to him, Send the man away, and let him return to his place, where thou didst set him; and let him not come with us to the war, and let him not be a traitor in the camp: and wherewith will he be reconciled to his master? Will it not be with the heads of those men?

5 not this David whom they celebrated in dances, saying, Saul has smitten his thousands, and David his ten thousands?

6 And Anchus called David, and said to him, the Lord lives, thou right and approved in my eyes, and thy going out and thy coming in with me in the army, and I have not found evil to charge against thee from the day that thou camest to me until this day: but thou art not approved in the eyes of the lords.
