1 Samuel 23:24-26
New Century Version
24 So they went back to Ziph ahead of Saul. Now David and his men were in the Desert of Maon[a] in the desert area south of Jeshimon. 25 Saul and his men went to look for David, but David heard about it and went down to a rock and stayed in the Desert of Maon. When Saul heard that, he followed David into the Desert of Maon.
26 Saul was going along one side of the mountain, and David and his men were on the other side. They were hurrying to get away from Saul, because Saul and his men were closing in on them.
