1 Samuel 9:4

And he passed through mount Ephraim, and passed through the land of Shalisha, but they found [them] not: then they passed through the land of Shalim, and [there they were] not: and he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they found [them] not.

And he passed through {H5674} mount {H2022} Ephraim {H669}, and passed through {H5674} the land {H776} of Shalisha {H8031}, but they found {H4672} them not: then they passed through {H5674} the land {H776} of Shalim {H8171}, and there they were not: and he passed through {H5674} the land {H776} of the Benjamites {H1145}, but they found {H4672} them not.

He went through the hills of Efrayim and the territory of Shalishah, but they didn't find them. Then they went through the territory of Sha'alim, but they weren't there. They went through the territory of Binyamin but didn't find them there either.

So Saul passed through the hill country of Ephraim and then through the land of Shalishah, but did not find the donkeys. He and the servant went through the region of Shaalim, but they were not there. Then they went through the land of Benjamin, and still they did not find them.

And he passed through the hill-country of Ephraim, and passed through the land of Shalishah, but they found them not: then they passed through the land of Shaalim, and there they were not: and he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they found them not.
