King James Version (KJV)

Then said the princes of the Philistines, What {do} these Hebrews {here}? And Achish said unto the princes of the Philistines, {Is} not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, which hath been with me these days, or these years, and I have found no fault in him since he fell {unto me} unto this day?

Modern English

Then the princes of the Philistines said, “What about these Hebrews?” Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, “Isn’t this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or rather these years, and I have found no fault in him since he fell away to today?”
