Chapter 29

As the battle nears, the Philistine lords see that David and his men are with Achish.  They insist that Achish send him away, lest David turn on them during the battle.  Achish still believes that David has been true to him, though from earlier reading we know that David has been raiding in the towns surrounding where he's been assigned to live.  David acts offended that he is not to be allowed to fight.  This too seems "wrong", as David knows full well he's been killing Philistines, men, women, and children.  But David goes home.
