The men of Israel went out of Mizpah, and pursued the Philistines, and struck them, until they came under Beth Kar.

Saul stayed in the uttermost part of Gibeah under the pomegranate tree which is in Migron: and the people who were with him were about six hundred men;

Now therefore what is under your hand? Give me five loaves of bread in my hand, or whatever there is present."

The priest answered David, and said, "There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women."

David said to Ahimelech, "Isn't there here under your hand spear or sword? For I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste."

Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men who were with him. Now Saul was sitting in Gibeah, under the tamarisk tree in Ramah, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him.

They took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
