사울이 사환을 데리고 기스의 잃은 암나귀들을 찾아 두루 다님

1 Samuel 9:3–5: the donkeys of Kish, Saul’s father, are lost. Kish says to Saul his son, “Now take one of the servants with you, and arise, go look for the donkeys.” The text goes on at 9:4, “He passed through the hill country of Ephraim, and passed through the land of Shalishah, but they didn’t find them. Then they passed through the land of Shaalim, and they weren’t there. Then he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they didn’t find them.” When they have come to the land of Zuph, Saul says to his servant who was with him, “Come! Let’s return, lest my father stop caring about the donkeys and be anxious for us.”
