Berkatalah Daud kepada Ahimelekh: "Tidak adakah padamu di sini tombak atau pedang? Sebab baik pedangku maupun senjataku, tidak dapat kubawa, karena perintah raja itu mendesak."
Maka kata Daud kepada Akhimelekh: Tiadakah di sini, di bawah tanganmu, sebatang lembing atau sebilah pedang? karena tiada sempat aku membawa pedang atau senjata pada tanganku, sebab titah baginda itu dengan paksa juga.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And David said unto Ahimelech,.... After he had given him some of the loaves of the shewbread:
and is there not here under thine hand spear or sword? any weapon, meaning in the tabernacle, and in his keeping, and at his disposal; he knew the sword of Goliath was there, and perhaps had a principal view to it, and put this question in order to get that in his possession:
for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me; neither his sword, nor any part of his armour, but was come quite naked and unarmed and, as he pretended,
