11 Les habitants de Keïla me livreront-ils entre ses mains? Saül descendra-t-il, comme ton serviteur l’a appris? Éternel, Dieu d’Israël, daigne le révéler à ton serviteur! Et l’Éternel répondit: Il descendra.

12 David dit encore: Les habitants de Keïla me livreront-ils, moi et mes gens, entre les mains de Saül? Et l’Éternel répondit: Ils te livreront.

13 Alors David se leva avec ses gens au nombre d’environ six cents hommes; ils sortirent de Keïla, et s’en allèrent où ils purent. Saül, informé que David s’était sauvé de Keïla, suspendit sa marche.

14 David demeura au désert, dans des lieux forts, et il resta sur la montagne du désert de Ziph. Saül le cherchait toujours, mais Dieu ne le livra pas entre ses mains.

15 David, voyant Saül en marche pour attenter à sa vie, se tint au désert de Ziph, dans la forêt.
