1 Samuel 27

² So David set out with his six hundred men and went to Achish son of Maoch, the king of Gath.

³ David and his men settled in Gath with Achish. Each man had his family with him, and David had his two wives: Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail of Carmel, the widow of Nabal.

⁴ And when Saul learned that David had fled to Gath, he no longer searched for him.

⁵ Then David said to Achish, “If I have found favor in your eyes, let me be assigned a place in one of the outlying towns, so I can live there. For why should your servant live in the royal city with you?”

⁶ That day Achish gave him Ziklag, and to this day it still belongs to the kings of Judah.
