1 Samuel 23:10-13

10Then David said, “Lord God of Israel, Your servant has heard for certain that Saul is seeking to come to Keilah to destroy the city on my account.

11Will the citizens of Keilah hand me over to him? Will Saul come down just as Your servant has heard? Lord God of Israel, please, tell Your servant.” And the Lord said, “He will come down.”

12Then David said, “Will the citizens of Keilah hand me and my men over to Saul?” And the Lord said, “1They will hand you over.”

13Then David and his men, 2about six hundred, rose up and departed from Keilah, and they went 3wherever they could go. When it was reported to Saul that David had escaped from Keilah, he gave up 4the pursuit.
