1 Samuel 23:24 in Context — 1 Samuel 23

22 Ide, pois, agora, preparai ainda, considerai e vede seu lugar por onde ele passa, e quem o tenha visto ali; porque se me disse que ele é em grande maneira astuto.

23 Considerai, pois, e vede todos os esconderijos de onde se oculta, e voltai a mim com a certeza, e eu irei convosco: que se ele estiver na terra, eu lhe buscarei entre todos os milhares de Judá.

24 E eles se levantaram, e se foram a Zife diante de Saul. Mas Davi e sua gente estavam no deserto de Maom, na planície que está à direita do deserto.

25 E partiu-se Saul com sua gente a buscá-lo; mas foi dado aviso a Davi, e desceu à penha, e ficou no deserto de Maom. O qual quando Saul ouviu, seguiu a Davi ao deserto de Maom.

26 E Saul ia pelo um lado do monte, e Davi com os seus pelo outro lado do monte: e apressava-se Davi para ir adiante de Saul; mas Saul e os seus haviam cercado a Davi e à sua gente para tomá-los.
