20 But (A)one son of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, (B)escaped and fled after David. 21 And Abiathar told David that Saul had killed the priests of Yahweh. 22 Then David said to Abiathar, “I knew on that day, when (C)Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. It is I who have turned against every person in your father’s household. 23 Stay with me; do not be afraid, for (D)he who seeks my life seeks your life, for you are [a]safe with me.”
