1 SAMUEL 23:14 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And David abode in the wilderness in strong holds, and remained in a mountain in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God delivered him not into his hand.”
And they went wherever they could go; and Saul sought him every day, but God did not give him into his hand — David's *vayyit halach ha'misharim*, wandering from place to place, indicates a peripatetic fugitive existence, constant movement to avoid capture. The *va'Saul bivqash kol yom*, Saul sought him every day, shows relentless pursuit. Yet the *v'YHWH lo natan oto b'yado*, God did not give him into his hand, assures that despite the hunting, David remains protected.
