Tedy rzekł Achis do sług swoich: Otoście widzieli człowieka szalonego, czemużeście go przywiedli do mnie?
W końcu Akisz powiedział do służby: Spójrzcie tylko, przecież to obłąkany! Po co mi go sprowadziliście?
Dlatego zmienił swe zachowanie w ich oczach oraz pod ich rękami udawał szaleńca, kreśląc znaki na podwojach bramy oraz spuszczając ślinę na swą brodę.
Tedy rzekł Achis do sług swoich: Otoście widzieli człowieka szalonego, czemużeście go przywiedli do mnie?
Wtedy Akisz powiedział do swoich sług: Oto widzicie człowieka szalonego. Dlaczego przyprowadziliście go do mnie?
I zachowywał się przed nimi niepoczytalnie, udawał obłąkanego, gdy go chwytali rękami, bił pięściami w odrzwia bramy i obśliniał swoją brodę.

is mad: or, playeth the madman, Ecclesiastes 7:7
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then said Achish to his servants, lo, you see the man is mad,.... Which he said, as willing his servants should think so, and therefore rather the object of their pity than of their rage and malice; or as really believing he was so, which he and they might conclude not merely from these his actions, before described, which they might judge real and not feigned; but they might suppose this was truly his case, brought upon him by the ill usage of Saul, who pursuing him from place to place, and sending after him to take away his life, had really brought him to distraction; and this they might rather conclude from his coming to Gath, an enemy's country, and whose champion he had slain, and many others of them; which it might be thought no man in his senses would have done:
wherefore [then] have ye brought him to me? for if he was brought to be employed in his service, he seemed very unfit for it, whether in the camp, or in the court; and if to be tried and condemned as an enemy, since he was a madman, he was rather to be pitied.
