1 Samuel 29:2–9As the Philistine leaders marched out their units of hundreds and thousands, David and his men marched behind them with Achish.1 Samuel 29:10Now then, get up early in the morning, along with your master’s servants who came with you, and go as soon as it is light.”1 Samuel 29:4But the commanders of the Philistines were angry with Achish and told him, “Send that man back and let him return to the place you assigned him. He must not go down with us into battle only to become our adversary during the war. What better way for him to regain the favor of his master than with the heads of our men?Psalms 60:7Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim is My helmet, Judah is My scepter.2 Chronicles 15:9And he assembled all Judah and Benjamin, along with those from the tribes of Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon who had settled among them, for great numbers had come over to him from Israel when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.2 Kings 7:4If we say, ‘Let us go into the city,’ we will die there from the famine in the city; but if we sit here, we will also die. So come now, let us go over to the camp of the Arameans. If they let us live, we will live; if they kill us, we will die.”
