David inquires of the LORD and saves the inhabitants of Keilah

다윗이 여호와께 묻고 그일라 거민을 구원함

1 Samuel 23:1–5: David is told, “Behold, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah, and are robbing the threshing floors.” Therefore David inquires of the LORD, saying, “Shall I go and strike these Philistines?” The LORD says to David, “Go strike the Philistines, and save Keilah.” David’s men say to him, “Behold, we are afraid here in Judah. How much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?” Then David inquires of the LORD yet again. The LORD answers him, and says, “Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into your hand.” David and his men go to Keilah and fight with the Philistines, and bring away their livestock, and kill them with a great slaughter. So David saves the inhabitants of Keilah.
