1 Some men from Ziph came to Saul at Gibeah and told him that David was hiding on Mount Hachilah at the edge of the Judean wilderness.
2 Saul went at once with 3,000 of the best soldiers in Israel to the wilderness of Ziph to look for David,
3 and camped by the road on Mount Hachilah. David was still in the wilderness, and when he learnt that Saul had come to look for him,
4 he sent spies and found out that Saul was indeed there.
