And when they were come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant that was with him, Come, and let us return; lest my father leave caring for the asses, and take thought for us.

KJV

Cum autem venissent in terram Suph, dixit Saul ad puerum qui erat cum eo : Veni et revertamur, ne forte dimiserit pater meus asinas, et sollicitus sit pro nobis.

αὐτῶν ἐλθόντων εἰς τὴν Σεὶφ καὶ Σαοὺλ εἶπεν τῷ παιδαρίῳ αὐτοῦ τῷ μετ’ αὐτοῦ Δεῦρο καὶ ἀναστρέψωμεν, μὴ ἀνεὶς ὁ πατήρ μου τὰς ὄνους φροντίζει περὶ ἡμῶν.

LXX

When they were come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant that was with him, Come, and let us return, lest my father leave off caring for the asses, and be anxious for us.
