23 And see ye, and know of all the hiding places where he will hide there, and turn back to me prepared, and I went with you: and it being if he is on earth, and I sought him in all the thousands of Judah. 24 And they will rise and go to Ziph before Saul: and David and his men in the desert of Maon, in the sterile region to the right of Jeshimon. 25 And Saul will go, and his men, to seek: and they will announce to David, and he will go down to the rock and dwell in the desert of the refuge. And Saul will hear and he will pursue after David in the desert of Maon. 26 And Saul will go from the side of the mountain from hence, and David from the side of the mountain from thence: and David will be taking flight to go from the face of Saul; and Saul and his men surrounding upon David and upon his men to seize them. 27 And a messenger came to Saul, saying, Hasten and come, for the rovers plundered upon the land. 28 And Saul will turn back from pursuing after David, and he will go to meet the rovers: for this they called that place the Rock of Escapes. 1 Samuel 23:23-28, Smith's Literal Translation.
