1 Samuel 23:17 DBY

¹⁵  And David saw that Saul had come out to seek his life; and David was in the wilderness of Ziph in a wood.

¹⁶  And Jonathan Saul's son arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hand in God.

¹⁷  And he said to him, Fear not; for the hand of Saul my father will not find thee; and thou shalt be king over Israel, and I shall be next to thee; and that also Saul my father knows.

¹⁸  And they two made a covenant before Jehovah; and David abode in the wood, and Jonathan went to his house.

¹⁹  And the Ziphites came up to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Does not David hide himself with us in strongholds in the wood, on the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of the waste?
