Bible: 1 Samuel 23:9-12; 30:6-8

23:9 When David realized that Saul was planning to harm him, 1  he told Abiathar the priest, “Bring the ephod! 23:10 Then David said, “O Lord God of Israel, your servant has clearly heard that Saul is planning 2  to come to Keilah to destroy the city because of me. 23:11 Will the leaders of Keilah deliver me into his hand? Will Saul come down as your servant has heard? O Lord God of Israel, please inform your servant!”

Then the Lord said, “He will come down.” 23:12 David asked, “Will the leaders of Keilah deliver me and my men into Saul’s hand?” The Lord said, “They will deliver you over.”

30:6 Then Rachel said, “God has vindicated me. He has responded to my prayer 1  and given me a son.” That is why 2  she named him Dan. 3 

30:7 Bilhah, Rachel’s servant, became pregnant again and gave Jacob another son. 4  30:8 Then Rachel said, “I have fought a desperate struggle with my sister, but I have won.” 5  So she named him Naphtali. 6
