1 Samuel 23:18-20

World English Bible

¹⁸ They both made a covenant before Yahweh. Then David stayed in the woods, and Jonathan went to his house.

¹⁹ Then the Ziphites came up to Saul to Gibeah, saying, “Doesn’t David hide himself with us in the strongholds in the woods, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of the desert? ²⁰ Now therefore, O king, come down. According to all the desire of your soul to come down; and our part will be to deliver him up into the king’s hand.”
