6 David asked Ahimelech the Hittite and Joab’s brother Abishai, [2] “Which one of you will go with me into Saul’s camp?” “I will!” Abishai answered.

7 That same night, David and Abishai crept into the camp. Saul was sleeping, and his spear was stuck in the ground not far from his head. Abner and the soldiers were sound asleep all around him.

8 Abishai whispered, “This time God has let you get your hands on your enemy! I’ll pin him to the ground with one thrust of his own spear.”
