Basi Akishi akamwita Daudi na kumwambia, “Kama vile Bwana aishivyo, wewe umekuwa mtu mwaminifu, nami ningependa utumike pamoja nami katika jeshi. Tangu siku ile uliyofika kwangu hadi sasa, sijaona kosa lolote kwako, lakini hao watawala hawakukubali.
1 Samuel 29:6 in English
1 Samuel 29:6 · Berean Standard Bible
So Achish summoned David and told him, “As surely as the LORD lives, you have been upright in my sight, and it seems right that you should march in and out with me in the army, because I have found no fault in you from the day you came to me until this day. But you have no favor in the sight of the leaders.

4Lakini majemadari wa Wafilisti wakamkasirikia na kusema, “Mrudishe mtu huyu, apate kurudi mahali pale ulipompangia. Haimpasi kufuatana pamoja nasi vitani, asije akageuka, akawa kinyume chetu vitani. Ni kwa njia ipi bora zaidi angeweza kujipatia tena kibali kwa bwana wake, isipokuwa kwa vichwa vya watu wetu wenyewe? 5Je, huyu si ndiye Daudi walioimba kumhusu katika ngoma zao, wakisema:
“ ‘Sauli amewaua elfu zake,
naye Daudi makumi elfu yake’?” 6Basi Akishi akamwita Daudi na kumwambia, “Kama vile Bwana aishivyo, wewe umekuwa mtu mwaminifu, nami ningependa utumike pamoja nami katika jeshi. Tangu siku ile uliyofika kwangu hadi sasa, sijaona kosa lolote kwako, lakini hao watawala hawakukubali. 7Rudi na uende kwa amani; usifanye chochote cha kuwakasirisha watawala wa Kifilisti.” 8Daudi akamuuliza Akishi, “Lakini mimi nimefanya nini? Je, umeona nini kibaya juu ya mtumishi wako tangu siku ile niliyokuja kwako hadi leo? Kwa nini nisirudi na kupigana na adui za bwana wangu mfalme?”
