1 Samuel 24:1-3

GOD’S WORD Translation

David Spares Saul’s Life

24 ^[a]When Saul came back from ⌞fighting⌟ the Philistines, he was told “Now David is in the desert near En Gedi.” ² Then Saul took 3,000 of the best-trained men from all Israel and went to search for David and his men on the Rocks of the Wild Goats. ³ He came to some sheep pens along the road where there was a cave. Saul went into ⌞it⌟ to relieve himself while David and his men were sitting further back in the cave.
