1 Samuel 23:1-3 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

1. Someone told David, “Look, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah. They are robbing grain from the threshing floors.”

2. David asked the Lord, “Should I go and fight these Philistines?”The Lord answered him, “Go. Attack them, and save Keilah.”

3. But David’s men said to him, “We’re afraid here in Judah. We will be much more afraid if we go to Keilah where the Philistine army is.”
