1Now there happened to be a certain man of Ra·math·aʹim-zoʹphim*+ of the mountainous region of Eʹphra·im,+ and his name was El·kaʹnah,+ the son of Je·roʹham, the son of E·liʹhu,* the son of Toʹhu, the son of Zuph,+ an Eʹphra·im·ite.*
18 As for David, he ran away and made his escape+ and got to come to Samuel at Raʹmah.+ And he proceeded to tell him all that Saul had done to him. Then he and Samuel went away, and they took up dwelling in Naiʹoth.+
