וְדָוִד בָּרַח וַיִּמָּלֵט וַיָּבֹא אֶל־שְׁמוּאֵל הָרָמָתָה וַיַּגֶּד־לוֹ אֵת כׇּל־אֲשֶׁר עָֽשָׂה־לוֹ שָׁאוּל וַיֵּלֶךְ הוּא וּשְׁמוּאֵל וַיֵּשְׁבוּ (בנוית) [בְּנָיֽוֹת]׃

בניות. (תרגום:) בבית אולפנא:
In Nayos. In the house of study.2Radak explains that נָיוֹת is derived from the word נָוֶה [=beauty], referring to the Beis Hamikdosh, which is the beauty of the world. They were sitting in Romoh engaged and seeking a location for the Beis Hamikdosh, the beauty of the world.
וַיִּשְׁלַח שָׁאוּל מַלְאָכִים לָקַחַת אֶת־דָּוִד וַיַּרְא אֶֽת־לַהֲקַת הַנְּבִיאִים נִבְּאִים וּשְׁמוּאֵל עֹמֵד נִצָּב עֲלֵיהֶם וַתְּהִי עַֽל־מַלְאֲכֵי שָׁאוּל רוּחַ אֱלֹהִים וַיִּֽתְנַבְּאוּ גַּם־הֵֽמָּה׃
Shaul sent messengers to take Dovid [captive; but upon arriving] they saw a group of prophets prophesying, with Shmuel standing at their head, overseeing them. Then, upon Shaul's messengers the spirit of God came and they, too, prophesied.

להקת. (תרגום:) סיעת:
A group of. A company.3The letters לַהֲקַת are transposed from קהלת [=a group or company]; קָהָל includes the entire group and חֶבֶל [Above 10:5] means only part of the group—Malbim.
וַיַּגִּדוּ לְשָׁאוּל וַיִּשְׁלַח מַלְאָכִים אֲחֵרִים וַיִּֽתְנַבְּאוּ גַּם־הֵמָּה {ס} וַיֹּסֶף שָׁאוּל וַיִּשְׁלַח מַלְאָכִים שְׁלִשִׁים וַיִּֽתְנַבְּאוּ גַּם־הֵֽמָּה׃

הוא אמר אלי וגו'. אתה מסרתני ביד לסטים אחד, שלף חרבו עלי עד ששלחתיו:
He said to me… You delivered me into the hands of a bandit.1She placed the blame for Dovid’s escape on Shaul. He drew his sword at me until I let him leave.
