And Saul and his men went to seek him. And David was told, so he went down to the rock and lived in the wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard that, he pursued after David in the wilderness of Maon.
So Saul returned from pursuing after David and went against the Philistines. Therefore that place was called the Rock of Escape.
And he struck them hip and thigh with a great blow, and he went down and stayed in the cleft of the rock of Etam.
