1 Samuel 26:1-4

1And the ZiphitesH2130 cameH935 unto SaulH7586 to GibeahH1390, sayingH559, Doth not DavidH1732 hideH5641 himself in the hillH1389 of Hachilah, which is before the desert?

2Then SaulH7586 aroseH6965, and wentH3381 downH3381 to the wildernessH4057 of ZiphH2128, having threeH7969 thousandH505 chosen menH376 of IsraelH3478 with him, to seekH1245 DavidH1732 in the wildernessH4057 of ZiphH2128.

3And SaulH7586 encampedH2583 in the hillH1389 of Hachilah, which is before the desert, by the wayH1870. But DavidH1732 abode in the wildernessH4057, and he sawH7200 that SaulH7586 cameH935 after him into the wildernessH4057.

4DavidH1732 therefore sentH7971 out spiesH7270, and understood that SaulH7586 was comeH935 of a certainty.
