Then they told David, saying, Behold, the Philistines fight against Keilah, and they rob the threshingfloors.
The word came to David that the Philistines were fighting against Keilah and robbing the threshingfloors, carrying off the harvested grain.

The town they had rescued did not remain a safe place for David and his men, so they afterward left it for the wilderness of Ziph.
