1 Samuel 23:7-17

And it was told
<05046> (8714)
Saul
<07586>
that David
<01732>
was come
<0935> (8804)
to Keilah
<07084>_.
And Saul
<07586>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
God
<0430>
hath delivered
<05234> (8765)
him into mine hand
<03027>_;
for he is shut in
<05462> (8738)_,
by entering
<0935> (8800)
into a town
<05892>
that hath gates
<01817>
and bars
<01280>_.
And Saul
<07586>
called
<08085> (0)
all the people
<05971>
together
<08085> (8762)
to war
<04421>_,
to go down
<03381> (8800)
to Keilah
<07084>_,
to besiege
<06696> (8800)
David
<01732>
and his men
<0582>_.
And David
<01732>
knew
<03045> (8799)
that Saul
<07586>
secretly practised
<02790> (8688)
mischief
<07451>
against him; and he said
<0559> (8799)
to Abiathar
<054>
the priest
<03548>_,
Bring hither
<05066> (8685)
the ephod
<0646>_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
David
<01732>_,
O LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
thy servant
<05650>
hath certainly
<08085> (8800)
heard
<08085> (8804)
that Saul
<07586>
seeketh
<01245> (8764)
to come
<0935> (8800)
to Keilah
<07084>_,
to destroy
<07843> (8763)
the city
<05892>
for my sake.
Will the men
<01167>
of Keilah
<07084>
deliver me up
<05462> (8686)
into his hand
<03027>_?
will Saul
<07586>
come down
<03381> (8799)_,
as thy servant
<05650>
hath heard
<08085> (8804)_?
O LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
I beseech thee, tell
<05046> (8685)
thy servant
<05650>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
He will come down
<03381> (8799)_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
David
<01732>_,
Will the men
<01167>
of Keilah
<07084>
deliver
<05462> (8686)
me and my men
<0582>
into the hand
<03027>
of Saul
<07586>_?
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
They will deliver [thee] up
<05462> (8686)_.
{deliver: Heb. shut up}
Then David
<01732>
and his men
<0582>_,
[which were] about six
<08337>
hundred
<03967> <0376>_,
arose
<06965> (8799)
and departed
<03318> (8799)
out of Keilah
<07084>_,
and went
<01980> (8691)
whithersoever
<0834>
they could go
<01980> (8691)_.
And it was told
<05046> (8717)
Saul
<07586>
that David
<01732>
was escaped
<04422> (8738)
from Keilah
<07084>_;
and he forbare
<02308> (8799)
to go forth
<03318> (8800)_.
And David
<01732>
abode
<03427> (8799)
in the wilderness
<04057>
in strong holds
<04679>_,
and remained
<03427> (8799)
in a mountain
<02022>
in the wilderness
<04057>
of Ziph
<02128>_.
And Saul
<07586>
sought
<01245> (8762)
him every day
<03117>_,
but God
<0430>
delivered
<05414> (8804)
him not into his hand
<03027>_.
And David
<01732>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that Saul
<07586>
was come out
<03318> (8804)
to seek
<01245> (8763)
his life
<05315>_:
and David
<01732>
[was] in the wilderness
<04057>
of Ziph
<02128>
in a wood
<02793>_.
And Jonathan
<03083>
Saul's
<07586>
son
<01121>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
to David
<01732>
into the wood
<02793>_,
and strengthened
<02388> (8762)
his hand
<03027>
in God
<0430>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Fear
<03372> (8799)
not: for the hand
<03027>
of Saul
<07586>
my father
<01>
shall not find
<04672> (8799)
thee; and thou shalt be king
<04427> (8799)
over Israel
<03478>_,
and I shall be next
<04932>
unto thee; and that also Saul
<07586>
my father
<01>
knoweth
<03045> (8802)_.
