1 Samuel 23:19-26

19Then the ZiphitesH2130 came upH5927 toH413 SaulH7586 at GibeahH1390 and saidH559, “Is notH3808 DavidH1732 hidingH5641 among usH5973 in the strongholdsH4679 at HoreshH2793, on the hillH1389 of HachilahH2444 southH3225 of JeshimonH3452? 20NowH6258, O kingH4428, come downH3381 wheneverH3605 your soulH5315 desiresH185, and we will be responsible for delivering himH5462 into your handH3027H4428.”

21“May youH859 be blessedH1288 by the LORDH3068,” repliedH559 SaulH7586, “forH3588 you have had compassionH2550 on meH5921. 22PleaseH4994 goH1980 and prepareH3559 furtherH5750. InvestigateH3045 and watchH7200 carefully whereH834 he goesH1961H7272 and whoH4310 has seen himH7200 thereH8033, forH3588 I am told thatH559 heH1931 is extremely cunningH6191. 23ObserveH7200 and find outH3045 allH3605 the placesH4224 whereH834 he hidesH2244H8033. Then come backH7725 to meH413 withH413 certaintyH3559, and I will goH1980 with youH854H1961. IfH518 he isH3426 in the landH776, I will search him outH2664 among allH3605 the clansH505 of JudahH3063.”

24So they set outH6965 and wentH1980 to ZiphH2128 ahead ofH6440 SaulH7586. Now DavidH1732 and his menH582 were in the WildernessH4057 of MaonH4584 in the ArabahH6160H413 southH3225 of JeshimonH3452, 25and SaulH7586 and his menH582 wentH1980 to seekH1245 him. When DavidH1732 was told about itH5046, he went downH3381 to the rockH5553 and stayedH3427 in the WildernessH4057 of MaonH4584. And when SaulH7586 heard of thisH8085, he pursuedH7291H310 DavidH1732 thereH4057H4584.

26SaulH7586 was proceeding alongH1980 oneH2088 sideH6654 of the mountainH2022, and DavidH1732 and his menH582 along the otherH2088H1961 sideH6654H2022. Even though DavidH1732 was hurryingH2648 to get awayH1980, SaulH7586 and his menH582 were closingH5849 in onH413 DavidH1732H413 and his menH582 to capture themH8610.
