Contextual Overview
1 David therefore departed thence, and escaped, into the cave of Adullam, - and, when his brethren and all the household of his father heard it, they went down unto him, thither. 2 And there gathered themselves unto him - every one that was in distress, and every one that had a creditor, and every one embittered in soul, and he came to be over them as a prince, - and there were with him, about four hundred men. 3 And David departed thence, to Mizpah of Moab, - and said unto the king of Moab, I pray thee, let my father and my mother dwell with you, until that I know what God will do for me. 4 So he set them before the king of Moab, - and they dwelt with him, all the days that David was in the fortress. 5 Then said Gad the prophet unto David - Thou must not abide in the fortress, go and get thee into the land of Judah. So David departed, and entered the forest of Hereth.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he brought them before the king of Moab,.... Having leave from him for it, and left them with him; so the Targum,
"caused them to remain before him:''
and they dwelt with him all the whole time that David was in the hold; either in the cave of Adullam, as some think; or rather at Mizpeh in Moab, which might be a fortified place; or the sense may be, while he was in any hold in those parts, as he might go from one to another; what became of David's parents afterwards, we nowhere else read. The Jews z say the king of Moab slew his father and his mother, and his brethren, all but one, whom Nahash the Ammonite preserved; and is the kindness David speaks of, 2 Samuel 10:2; and if this was the case, now it was that his father and mother forsook him, and God took him up, Psalms 27:10.
z Bemnidbar Rabba, sect. 14. fol. 212. 1. Tanchuma apud Jarchium in loc.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
He brought them before ... - The Septuagint renders it “he persuaded (the face of) the king.”
In the hold - Where David was after he left the cave of Adullam, probably in the land of Moab.
The phrase “all the while,” would indicate that David sojourned a considerable time in Moab.
