# sought the face of Yahweh
Here "face" is a synecdoche for Yahweh's presence. This means David prayed to Yahweh for an answer about the famine. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])
# because of Saul and his murderous family
Saul had killed many Gibeonites, and Saul's descendants are guilty because of this sin.
