Commentaire sur Samuel 1 23:7
וַיֻּגַּ֣ד לְשָׁא֔וּל כִּי־בָ֥א דָוִ֖ד קְעִילָ֑ה וַיֹּ֣אמֶר שָׁא֗וּל נִכַּ֨ר אֹת֤וֹ אֱלֹהִים֙ בְּיָדִ֔י כִּ֚י נִסְגַּ֣ר לָב֔וֹא בְּעִ֖יר דְּלָתַ֥יִם וּבְרִֽיחַ׃
Ayant appris que David était entré dans Keïla, Saül dit: "Dieu le livre en mon pouvoir, car il s’est enfermé, en entrant dans une ville munie de portes et de verrous."
Rashi on I Samuel
s God has given him into my hand. Meaning, delivered, and similarly, "And do not look on, on the day of your brother, on the day of his being delivered [נכרו]."1Ovadyoh 1:12. This is the conjugation of the strong [verbs e.g., Pi'el], as in, "He destroyed and broke her bars."2Eichah 2:9. If he desired to speak in the conjugation of the weak [verbs e.g., Kal], it would have been punctuated thus: נָכַר.

Rashi on I Samuel
For he has been shut in by entering a city that has doors and a bolt. He will rely on that, and will not care to flee from it.
