¹² Then David said, Will the men of Keilah give me and my men up to Saul? and the Lord said, They will give you up.

²⁰ So now, O king, have your soul's desire and come down, and we, for our part, will give him up into the king's hands.

⁷ And news was given to Saul that David had come to Keilah. And Saul said, Now God has given him into my hands; for by going into a walled town with locked doors, he has let himself be shut in.

⁸ And you have not given me into the hand of my hater; you have put my feet in a wide place.

¹ <To the chief music-maker. After Jeduthun. A Psalm. Of David.> My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my salvation.

⁸ It is better to have faith in the Lord than to put one's hope in man.

¹⁴ There was a little town and the number of its men was small, and there came a great king against it and made an attack on it, building works of war round about it.

¹⁵ Now there was in the town a poor, wise man, and he, by his wisdom, kept the town safe. But no one had any memory of that same poor man.

¹⁵ Cursed are those who go deep to keep their designs secret from the Lord, and whose works are in the dark, and who say, Who sees us? and who has knowledge of our acts?

¹³ And there is nothing made which is not completely clear to him; there is nothing covered, but all things are open to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
