1 Samuel 23:19-24
19Then the Ziphites went up to Saul at Gibeah and said, “Isn’t David hiding among us in the strongholds at Horesh on the hill of Hakilah, south of Jeshimon?
20Now at your own discretion, O king, come down. Delivering him into the king’s hand will be our responsibility.”
21Saul replied, “May you be blessed by the Lord, for you have had compassion on me.
22Go and make further arrangements. Determine precisely where he is and who has seen him there, for I am told that he is extremely cunning.
23Locate precisely all the places where he hides and return to me with dependable information. Then I will go with you. If he is in the land, I will find him among all the thousands of Judah.”
24So they left and went to Ziph ahead of Saul. Now David and his men were in the desert of Maon, in the Arabah to the south of Jeshimon.
