1 Samuel 9:3-5

Christian Standard Bible

³ One day the donkeys of Saul’s father Kish wandered off. Kish said to his son Saul, “Take one of the servants with you and go look for the donkeys.” ⁴ Saul and his servant went through the hill country of Ephraim^(A) and then through the region of Shalishah,^(B) but they didn’t find them. They went through the region of Shaalim^(C)—nothing. Then they went through the Benjaminite region but still didn’t find them.

⁵ When they came to the land of Zuph,^(D) Saul said to the servant who was with him, “Come on, let’s go back, or my father will stop worrying about the donkeys and start worrying about us.”^(E)
