1 The people of Ziph went to Saul at Gibeah and said to him, “David is hiding on the hill of Hakilah opposite Jeshimon.”
2 So Saul went down to the Desert of Ziph with three thousand chosen men of Israel to look for David there.
3 Saul made his camp beside the road on the hill of Hakilah opposite Jeshimon, but David stayed in the desert. When he heard Saul had followed him,
4 he sent out spies and learned for certain that Saul had come to Hakilah.
