1 Samuel 23:14-18
14DavidH1732 stayedH3427 in the wildernessH4057 in the strongholdsH4679, and remainedH3427 in the hillH2022 countryH2022 in the wildernessH4057 of 1ZiphH2128. And SaulH7586 soughtH1245 him everyH3605 dayH3117, but 2GodH430 did not deliverH5414 him into his handH3027.
15Now DavidH1732 3becameH7200 awareH7200 that SaulH7586 had comeH3318 out to seekH1245 his lifeH5315 while DavidH1732 was in the wildernessH4057 of ZiphH2128 at HoreshH2793. 16And JonathanH3083, Saul’sH7586 sonH1121, aroseH6965 and wentH1980 to DavidH1732 at HoreshH2793, and 45encouragedH2388H3027 him in GodH430. 17Thus he saidH559 to him, “6Do not be afraidH3372, becauseH3588 the handH3027 of SaulH7586 my fatherH1 will not findH4672 you, and you will be kingH4427 overH5921 IsraelH3478 and I will be nextH4932 to you; and 7SaulH7586 my fatherH1 knowsH3045 that alsoH1571.” 18So 8the twoH8147 of them madeH3772 a covenantH1285 beforeH6440 the LordH3068; and DavidH1732 stayedH3427 at HoreshH2793 while JonathanH3083 wentH1980 to his houseH1004.
