1 Samuel 24:1-4 ▼

1 When Saul came back from [fighting] the Philistines, he was told |Now David is in the desert near En Gedi.|

2 Then Saul took 3,000 of the best-trained men from all Israel and went to search for David and his men on the Rocks of the Wild Goats.

3 He came to some sheep pens along the road where there was a cave. Saul went into [it] to relieve himself while David and his men were sitting further back in the cave.

4 David's men told him, |Today is the day the LORD referred to when he said, 'I'm going to hand your enemy over to you. You will do to him whatever you think is right.' | David quietly got up and cut off the border of Saul's robe.
