And David:
"And Davidª saidª ° unto Ahimelechª the priest,ª The kingª hath commandedª ° me a business,ª and hath saidª ° unto¹ me, Let no¹ manª knowª ° any thingª of¹ the businessª whereabout¹ I¹ sendª ° thee, and what¹ I have commandedª ° thee: and I have appointedª ° [my] servantsª to¹ suchª and suchª a place.ª" {1Sm 21:2} + "And Jacobª saidª ° unto¹ his father,ª I¹ [am] Esauª thy firstborn;ª I have doneª ° according as¹ thou badestª °¹ me: arise,ª ° I pray thee,¹ sitª ° and eatª ° of my venison,ª ¹ that¹ thy soulª may blessª ° me. ... And Isaacª saidª ° unto¹ his son,ª How¹ [is it]¹ that thou hast foundª ° [it] so quickly,ª ° my son?ª And he said,ª ° Because¹ the LORDª thy Godª broughtª ° [it] to¹ me.²" {Gen 27:19-20} + "And he said,ª ° [Art] thou¹ my very¹ sonª Esau?ª And he said,ª ° I¹ [am]." {Gen 27:24} + "And the womanª tookª °¹ the twoª men,² ¹ and hidª ° them, and saidª ° thus,¹ There cameª ° men² ¹ unto¹ me, but I wistª ° not¹ whenceª ¹ they¹ [were]: ... But she¹ had brought them upª ° to the roofª of the house, and hidª ° them with the stalksª of flax,ª which she had laid in orderª ° upon¹ the roof.ª" {Jsh 2:4-6} + "And when Absalom'sª servantsª cameª ° to¹ the womanª to the house,ª they said,ª ° Where¹ [is] Ahimaazª and Jonathan?ª And the womanª saidª ° unto them, They be gone overª ° the brookª of water.ª And when they had soughtª ° and could not¹ findª ° [them], they returnedª ° to Jerusalem.ª" {2Sm 17:20} + "Removeª ° from¹ me the wayª of lying:ª and grant me thy lawª graciously.ª °" {Psa 119:29} + "I hateª ° and abhorª ° lying:ª [but] thy lawª do I love.ª °" {Psa 119:163} + "The fearª of manª bringethª ° a snare:ª but whoso putteth his trustª ° in the LORDª shall be safe.ª °" {Prv 29:25} + "Butª whenª Peterª was comeª ° toª Antioch,ª I withstoodª ° himª toª the face,ª becauseª he wasª ° to be blamed.ª ° ... Andª the¹ otherª Jewsª dissembled² ° likewise² with¹ ¹ him;ª insomuch² that¹ Barnabasª alsoª was carried away² ° with¹ theirª dissimulation.ª" {Gal 2:11-13} + "Whereforeª putting awayª ° lying,ª speakª ° every manª truthª withª his² ¹ neighbour:ª forª we areª ° membersª one of another.ª" {Eph 4:25}

Against:
David here meant the Geshurites, and Gezrites, and Amalekites, which people occupied that part of the country which lies to the south of Judah. But Achish, as was intended, understood him in a different sense, and believed that he had attacked his own countrymen. David's answer, therefore, though not an absolute falsehood, was certainly an equivocation intended to deceive, and therefore incompatible with that sense of truth and honour which became him as a prince, and a professor of true religion. From these, and similar passages, we may observe the strict impartiality of the Sacred Scriptures. They present us with the most faithful delineation of human nature; they exhibit the frailties of kings, priests, and prophets, with equal truth; and examples of vice and frailty, as well as of piety and virtue, are held up, that we may guard against the errors to which the best men are exposed.

the Jerahmeelites:
"The sonsª also of Hezron,ª that¹ were bornª ° unto him;¹ Jerahmeel,ª and Ram,ª and Chelubai.ª" {1Ch 2:9} + "And the sonsª of Jerahmeelª the firstbornª of Hezronª were,¹ Ramª the firstborn,ª and Bunah,ª and Oren,ª and Ozem,ª [and] Ahijah.ª" {1Ch 2:25}

Kenites:
"And Saulª saidª ° unto¹ the Kenites,ª Go,² °¹ depart,ª ° get you downª ° from amongª ¹ the Amalekites,ª lest¹ I destroyª ° you with¹ them: for ye¹ shewedª ° kindnessª to¹ all¹ the childrenª of Israel,ª when they came upª ° out of Egypt.ª ¹ So the Kenitesª departedª ° from amongª ¹ the Amalekites.ª" {1Sm 15:6} + "And he looked² ° on¹ ¹ the Kenites,ª and took upª ° his parable,ª and said,ª ° Strongª is thy dwellingplace,ª and thou puttestª ° thy nestª in a rock.ª" {Num 24:21} + "And the childrenª of the Kenite,ª Moses'ª father in law,ª ° went upª ° out of the cityª ¹ of palm treesª °² with¹ the childrenª of Judahª into the wildernessª ¹ of Judah,ª which¹ [lieth] in the southª of Arad;ª and they went² °¹ and dweltª ° amongª the people.ª" {Jdg 1:16} + "Now Heberª the Kenite,² ¹ [which was] of the childrenª ¹ of Hobabª the father in lawª ° of Moses,ª had severed² ° himself¹ from the Kenites,ª ¹ and pitchedª ° his tentª unto¹ the plainª of Zaanaim,ª which¹ [is] by¹ Kedesh.ª" {Jdg 4:11} + "Blessedª ° above womenª ¹ shall Jaelª the wifeª of Heberª the Keniteª be, blessedª ° shall she be above womenª ¹ in the tent.ª" {Jdg 5:24}
