'Removed' in the Bible

They said, “If you send away the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it empty [without a gift]; but be sure to return [it] to Him [together with] a guilt offering. Then you will be healed, and it will be known to you why His hand is not removed from you.”

So Saul had David removed from his presence and appointed him as his commander of a thousand; and he publicly associated with the people.
