1 Sam. 26:25      1 Sam. 27:2

First Samuel 27:1

But David [was tired of constantly having to flee from Saul and] said in his heart (thought to himself): "One day I will be swept away (removed) by Saul's hand. There is nothing better for me than to flee to the land of the Philistines. Then Saul will give up (grow weary of) searching for me throughout the borders of Israel, and I will escape his hand."
