18 Fugiu, pois, Davi, e escapou-se, e veio a Samuel em Ramá, e disse-lhe tudo o que Saul havia feito com ele. E foram-se ele e Samuel, e moraram em Naiote.
19 E foi dado aviso a Saul, dizendo: Eis que Davi está em Naiote em Ramá.
20 E enviou Saul mensageiros que trouxessem a Davi, os quais viram uma companhia de profetas que profetizavam, e a Samuel que estava ali, e os presidia. E foi o espírito de Deus sobre os mensageiros de Saul, e eles também profetizaram.
21 E feito que foi saber a Saul, ele enviou outros mensageiros, os quais também profetizaram. E Saul voltou a enviar pela terceira vez mensageiros, e eles também profetizaram.
