Exegesis
A causal clause follows, introduced by ki {כִּי | kî} ‘for/because’, where lo {לֹא | lōʾ} ‘not’ plus the imperfect timtza’akhā {תִמְצָאֲךָ | tim-zā-’ă-ḵā} ‘will find you’ denies any threat from Saul’s locus of agency.
In context — 1 Samuel 23:17
He said to him, “Do not be afraid, for my father Saul’s hand will not find you. You will reign over Israel, and I will be your second . Even my father Saul knows this.”
