Learning that the Philistines are attacking Keilah and stealing its grain, David seeks guidance and receives a clear directive to attack, with help promised by the Lord. After victory, Saul mobilizes his entire army to capture David in Keilah, but a warning from the Lord reveals the danger of betrayal, prompting Saul to abandon the plan. Later, men from Ziph help locate David, setting the next pursuit in motion.","049 Saul Pursues David  \n1 Samuel 23 and 24  \nEnglish Spiritual  \n049 Saul Pursues David  \nEnglish  \n© 2020 Wycliffe Bible Translators, Inc.  \n[http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/)  \nYou are free to make commercial use of this work.

David heard that the Philistines were attacking the town of Keilah and stealing their grain.  \nDavid asked the Lord,“Should I go and attack the Philistines?” And the Lord replied,“Yes, go down to Keilah, for I will help you conquer the Philistines.”  \nSo, just as the Lord had promised, when David and his men attacked the Philistines, they defeated them.  \nSaul soon learned that David was in Keilah. So Saul took his entire army and marched to Keilah to capture David and his men.  \nBut the Lord warned David that the people of Keilah would betray him to Saul. When Saul heard that David and his men had left Keilah, he gave up his plan to capture David there.  \nOne day some people from the town of Ziph went to Saul and told him that David was hiding in the hill country near their town. Saul asked them to find out exactly where David was hiding. He said,“I will go there and capture him.” So the men of Ziph went home ahead of Saul.","cbCaiipPTpVZrYXt","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiipPTpVZrYXt","pdf",3313478,1,20,"English","en",105,"# Saul’s pursuit of David\n## Keilah and the Philistines\n## Betrayal warning and the failed capture\n## Ziph reports David’s hiding place","[{\"question\":\"Why were David and his men hiding at the start of the story?\",\"answer\":\"They were hiding because Saul was trying to kill them.\"},{\"question\":\"What decision did David seek from the Lord regarding Keilah?\",\"answer\":\"David asked whether he should attack the Philistines, and the Lord told him to go to Keilah for help in conquering them.\"},{\"question\":\"Why did Saul give up his plan to capture David in Keilah?\",\"answer\":\"The Lord warned David that the people of Keilah would betray him to Saul, and when Saul heard David had left, he abandoned the plan.\"}]",1784126693,50,{"code":4,"msg":30,"data":31},"ok",{"site_id":24,"language":23,"slug":32,"title":13,"keywords":33,"description":14,"schema_data":34,"social_meta":86,"head_meta":88,"extra_data":90,"updated_unix":27},"saul-pursues-david","",{"@graph":35,"@context":85},[36,53,68],{"@type":37,"itemListElement":38},"BreadcrumbList",[39,43,47,50],{"item":40,"name":41,"@type":42,"position":20},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":44,"name":45,"@type":42,"position":46},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":48,"name":12,"@type":42,"position":49},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/religion-spirituality/",3,{"item":51,"name":13,"@type":42,"position":52},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/saul-pursues-david/80152/",4,{"url":51,"name":13,"@type":54,"author":55,"headline":13,"publisher":57,"fileFormat":60,"inLanguage":23,"description":14,"dateModified":61,"datePublished":62,"encodingFormat":60,"isAccessibleForFree":63,"interactionStatistic":64},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":56},"Person",{"url":40,"name":58,"@type":59},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-07-16","2026-07-15",true,{"@type":65,"interactionType":66,"userInteractionCount":20},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":67},"ViewAction",{"@type":69,"mainEntity":70},"FAQPage",[71,77,81],{"name":72,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":74},"Why were David and his men hiding at the start of the story?","Question",{"text":75,"@type":76},"They were hiding because Saul was trying to kill them.","Answer",{"name":78,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":79},"What decision did David seek from the Lord regarding Keilah?",{"text":80,"@type":76},"David asked whether he should attack the Philistines, and the Lord told him to go to Keilah for help in conquering them.",{"name":82,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":83},"Why did Saul give up his plan to capture David in Keilah?",{"text":84,"@type":76},"The Lord warned David that the people of Keilah would betray him to Saul, and when Saul heard David had left, he abandoned the plan.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":51,"og:type":87,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":58,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":89,"canonical":51},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":24},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":92},[93,97,101,105,110,114,119,124,126,129,133],{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":94,"show_sort_weight":95,"slug":96},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":46,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":98,"show_sort_weight":99,"slug":100},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":52,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":102,"show_sort_weight":103,"slug":104},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":106,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":107,"show_sort_weight":108,"slug":109},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":111,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":112,"show_sort_weight":28,"slug":113},6,"Technology","technology",{"id":115,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":116,"show_sort_weight":117,"slug":118},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":120,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":121,"show_sort_weight":122,"slug":123},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":21,"slug":125},"religion-spirituality",{"id":21,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":127,"show_sort_weight":21,"slug":128},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":130,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":131,"show_sort_weight":130,"slug":132},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":134,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":135,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":136},19,"General","general"]
