1 Samuel 23:20-24
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 23
20
Now then, O king, come down, since you fully desire to do so; and our part
shall be
to hand him over to the king.'
21
Saul said, 'May you be blessed of the
Lord
, since you have had compassion on me.
22
Go now, be more persistent, and investigate and see his place where he is hiding,
and
who has seen him there; for I am told that he is very cunning.
23
So look, and learn about all the hiding places where he keeps himself hidden, and return to me with certainty, and I will go with you; and if he is in the land, I will search him out among all the thousands of Judah.'
24
So they set out and went to Ziph ahead of Saul. Now David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the Arabah to the south of Jeshimon.
King James Version
Chapter 23
20
Now therefore, O king, come down according to all the desire of thy soul to come down; and our part shall be to deliver him into the king's hand.
21
And Saul said, Blessed be ye of the
Lord
; for ye have compassion on me.
22
Go, I pray you, prepare yet, and know and see his place where his haunt is, and who hath seen him there: for it is told me that he dealeth very subtilly.
23
See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking places where he hideth himself, and come ye again to me with the certainty, and I will go with you: and it shall come to pass, if he be in the land, that I will search him out throughout all the thousands of Judah.
24
And they arose, and went to Ziph before Saul: but David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the plain on the south of Jeshimon.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 23
20
Now, whenever the king wants to come down, let him come down. Our part will be to hand him over to the king."
21
"May you be blessed by the
Lord
," replied Saul, "for you have shown concern for me.
22
Go and check again. Investigate where he goes and who has seen him there; they tell me he is extremely cunning.
23
Investigate all the places where he hides. Then come back to me with accurate information, and I’ll go with you. If it turns out he really is in the region, I’ll search for him among all the clans of Judah."
24
So they went to Ziph ahead of Saul. Now David and his men were in the wilderness near Maon in the Arabah south of Jeshimon,

20
Come down whenever you’re ready, O king, and we will catch him and hand him over to you!'
21
The
Lord
bless you,' Saul said. 'At last someone is concerned about me!
22
Go and check again to be sure of where he is staying and who has seen him there, for I know that he is very crafty.
23
Discover his hiding places, and come back when you are sure. Then I’ll go with you. And if he is in the area at all, I’ll track him down, even if I have to search every hiding place in Judah!'
24
So the men of Ziph returned home ahead of Saul. Meanwhile, David and his men had moved into the wilderness of Maon in the Arabah Valley south of Jeshimon.
English Standard Version

Now come down, O king, according to all your heart 's desire to come down, and our part shall be to surrender him into the king 's hand."
21
And Saul said, "May you be blessed by the
Lord
, for you have had compassion on me.
22
Go, make yet more sure. Know and see the place where his foot is, and who has seen him there, for it is told me that he is very cunning.
23
See therefore and take note of all the lurking places where he hides, and come back to me with sure information. Then I will go with you. And if he is in the land, I will search him out among all the thousands of Judah."
24
And they arose and went to Ziph ahead of Saul. Now David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the Arabah to the south of Jeshimon.

Now, Your Majesty, come down whenever it pleases you to do so, and we will be responsible for giving him into your hands."

Saul replied, "The
Lord
bless you for your concern for me.
22
Go and get more information. Find out where David usually goes and who has seen him there. They tell me he is very crafty.
23
Find out about all the hiding places he uses and come back to me with definite information. Then I will go with you; if he is in the area, I will track him down among all the clans of Judah."
24
So they set out and went to Ziph ahead of Saul. Now David and his men were in the Desert of Maon, in the Arabah south of Jeshimon.

are
you of the
Lord
, for you have compassion on me.
22
Please go and find out for sure, and see the place where his hideout is,
and
who has seen him there. For I am told he is very crafty.
23
See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking places where he hides; and come back to me with certainty, and I will go with you. And it shall be, if he is in the land, that I will search for him throughout all the clans of Judah.”
24
So they arose and went to Ziph before Saul. But David and his men
were
in the Wilderness of Maon, in the plain on the south of Jeshimon.
