1 Samuel 23:19-24

19Then cameH5927 up the ZiphitesH2130 to SaulH7586 to GibeahH1390, sayingH559, Doth not DavidH1732 hideH5641 himself with us in the strongholdsH4679 in the wood, in the hillH1389 of Hachilah, which is on the southH3225 of the desert? 20NowH6258 thereforeH6258, O kingH4428, comeH3381 down, according to all the desireH5315 of thy soulH5315 to comeH3381 down; and our part shall be to deliverH5462 him up into the king’sH4428 handH3027. 21And SaulH7586 saidH559, BlessedH1288 be ye of Jehovah; for ye have had compassionH2550 on me. 22Go, I pray you, makeH3045 yetH5750 more sure, and knowH3045 and seeH7200 his placeH4725 whereH834 his haunt is, and who hath seenH7200 him there; for it is told me that he dealeth very subtly. 23SeeH7200 therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking-places whereH834 he hideth himself, and comeH1980 ye again to me of a certainty, and I will goH1980 with you: and it shall comeH1980 to pass, if he beH1961 in the landH776, that I will searchH2664 him out among all the thousandsH505 of JudahH3063.

24And they aroseH6965, and went to ZiphH2128 before SaulH7586: but DavidH1732 and his menH376 were in the wildernessH4057 of MaonH4584, in the ArabahH6160 on the southH3225 of the desertH6160.
