King David

King David1985



Saul:
[at Nob, shortly after David has escaped] Abner, I want these priests killed, one by one, until their high priest "remembers" where David is, or is going. Then the killing will stop.

Abner:
No soldier would carry out such an order. These priests...

Saul:
THESE PRIESTS are maggots! In carrion! Fattening themselves on the offerings people give to the Lord! They are traitors, every one of them! And so is any soldier who refuses to obey the king's command. [He runs his javelin through one soldier who couldn't bring himself to slay the priests] Will no one obey the king? [Another soldier volunteers] It takes a gentile to obey. [the second soldier kills several priests, but still no one "remembers" David's whereabouts, so Saul kills the high priest with his javelin]
