deduce_v from_o this_o text._n they_o who_o be_v for_o the_o affirmative_a say_v that_o it_o be_v very_o clear_a that_o david_n do_v intend_v to_o defend_v himself_o against_o king_n saul_n by_o

to_o defend_v he_o they_o say_v that_o david_n will_v not_o have_v flee_v if_o he_o have_v not_o understand_v their_o design_n to_o deliver_v he_o up_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o saul_n now_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o david_n be_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n a_o very_a good_a and_o religious_a man_n and_o therefore_o if_o this_o have_v be_v rebellion_n and_o rebellion_n so_o heinous_a a_o crime_n david_n will_v not_o have_v intend_v that_o which_o they_o say_v he_o do_v intend_v to_o defend_v himself_o by_o fortify_v the_o place_n yea_o and_o give_v saul_n battel_n again_o it_o can_v be_v

who_o maintain_v this_o opinion_n say_v be_v true_a to_o wit_n that_o david_n do_v intend_v to_o oppose_v saul_n by_o force_n of_o arms._n i_o be_o of_o opinion_n and_o full_o convince_v that_o

down_o against_o he_o and_o whether_o the_o keilite_n will_v deliver_v he_o up_o into_o saul_n hand_n he_o remove_v from_o keilah_n because_o the_o lord_n answer_v he_o that_o they_o will_v deliver_v he_o up_o not_o because_o it_o be_v unlawful_a for_o he_o to_o keep_v the_o city_n but_o because_o the_o city_n will_v be_v false_a to_o he_o and_o the_o end_n why_o he_o desire_v to_o know_v whether_o the_o keilite_n will_v deal_v false_o with_o he_o or_o no_o be_v that_o he_o may_v by_o his_o more_o early_a flight_n prevent_v their_o design_n of_o deliver_v he_o up_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o saul_n it_o be_v certain_a by_o the_o event_n that_o as_o soon_o as_o their_o ungrateful_a treachery_n be_v discover_v to_o david_n he_o forthwith_o arise_v depart_v out_o of_o keilah_n and_o

be_v plain_a and_o clear_a that_o david_n will_v have_v defend_v himself_o in_o keilah_n against_o saul_n if_o the_o keilite_n will_v have_v be_v true_a to_o he_o which_o may_v be_v prove_v by_o these_o consideration_n first_o it_o be_v certain_a by_o scripture_n that_o david_n have_v a_o company_n six_o handred_a man_n at_o least_o and_o why_o shall_v he_o gather_v so_o many_o man_n
