1 SAMUEL 27:10 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And Achish said, Whither have ye made a road to day? And David said, Against the south of Judah, and against the south of the Jerahmeelites, and against the south of the Kenites.”
And Achish asked, 'Against whom have you made a raid today?' And David said, 'Against the Negeb of Judah,' and 'Against the Negeb of the Jerahmeelites,' and 'Against the Negeb of the Kenites' — David's deception ('ʿal-neḡeb yəhûdāh') reverses the truth, reporting raids on Judah while attacking Israel's enemies. This double-dealing marks a moral compromise within the larger strategic arrangement.
