1 Samuel 18:25

18:25 Saul replied, “Here is what you should say to David: ‘There is nothing that the king wants as a price for the bride except a hundred Philistine foreskins, so that he can be avenged of his ²  enemies.’” (Now Saul was thinking that he could kill David by the hand of the Philistines.)

1 Samuel 27:1

David Aligns Himself with the Philistines

27:1 David thought to himself, ³  “One of these days I’m going to be swept away by the hand of Saul! There is nothing better for me than to escape to the land of the Philistines. Then Saul will despair of searching for me through all the territory of Israel and I will escape from his hand.”
