Hereupon Saul made haste to pursue him thither; for, as he was marching,
he learned that David was gone away from the Straits of Ziph, and Saul
removed to the other side of the rock. But the report that the Philistines
had again made an incursion into the country of the Hebrews, called Saul
another way from the pursuit of David, when he was ready to be caught;
for he returned back again to oppose those Philistines, who were naturally
their enemies, as judging it more necessary to avenge himself of them,
than to take a great deal of pains to catch an enemy of his own, and to
overlook the ravage that was made in the land.
