The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances,
saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
SA1 21:12 And David laid up these words in his heart, and was sore
afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
SA1 21:13 And he changed his behaviour before them, and feigned himself
mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his
spittle fall down upon his beard.
SA1 21:14 Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see the man is
mad: wherefore then have ye brought him to me?
SA1 21:15 Have I need of mad men, that ye have brought this fellow to
play the mad man in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house?
