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.
27 Então veio um mensageiro a Saul, dizendo: Vem logo, porque os filisteus fizeram uma invasão na terra.
28 Voltou-se, portanto, Saul de perseguir a Davi, e partiu contra os filisteus. Por esta causa puseram a aquele lugar por nome Selá-Hamalecote.
29 Então Davi subiu dali, e habitou nos lugares fortes em En-Gedi.
