1 Samuel 30:1-17
1
And it came H1961 to pass, when David H1732 and his men H582 were come H935 to Ziklag H6860 on the third H7992 day, H3117 that the Amalekites H6003 had invaded H6584 the south, H5045 and Ziklag, H6860 and smitten H5221 Ziklag, H6860 and burned H8313 it with fire; H784
2
And had taken the women H802 captives, H7617 that were therein: they slew H4191 not any, H376 either great H1419 or small, H6996 but carried H5090 them away, and went H3212 on their way. H1870
3
So David H1732 and his men H582 came H935 to the city, H5892 and, behold, H2009 it was burned H8313 with fire; H784 and their wives, H802 and their sons, H1121 and their daughters, H1323 were taken captives. H7617
4
Then David H1732 and the people H5971 that were with him lifted H5375 up their voice H6963 and wept, H1058 until H5704 H834 they had no H369 more power H3581 to weep. H1058
5
And David's H1732 two H8147 wives H802 were taken captives, H7617 Ahinoam H293 the Jezreelitess, H3159 and Abigail H26 the wife H802 of Nabal H5037 the Carmelite. H3761
6
And David H1732 was greatly H3966 distressed; H3334 for the people H5971 spoke H559 of stoning H5619 him, because H3588 the soul H5315 of all H3605 the people H5971 was grieved, H4784 every man H376 for his sons H1121 and for his daughters: H1323 but David H1732 encouraged H2388 himself in the LORD H3068 his God. H430
7
And David H1732 said H559 to Abiathar H54 the priest, H3548 Ahimelech's H288 son, H1121 I pray H4994 you, bring H5066 me here H5066 the ephod. H646 And Abiathar H54 brought H5066 thither the ephod H646 to David. H1732
8
And David H1732 inquired H7592 at the LORD, H3068 saying, H559 Shall I pursue H7291 after H310 this H2088 troop? H1416 shall I overtake H5381 them? And he answered H559 him, Pursue: H7291 for you shall surely overtake H5381 them, and without fail recover H5337 all.
9
So David H1732 went, H3212 he and the six H8337 hundred H3967 men H376 that were with him, and came H935 to the brook H5158 Besor, H1308 where those that were left H3498 behind H3498 stayed. H5975
10
But David H1732 pursued, H7291 he and four H702 hundred H3697 men: H376 for two hundred H3967 stayed H5975 behind, H5975 which H834 were so faint H6296 that they could not go H5674 over H5674 the brook H5158 Besor. H1308
11
And they found H4672 an Egyptian H4713 in the field, H7704 and brought H3947 him to David, H1732 and gave H5414 him bread, H3899 and he did eat; H398 and they made him drink H8248 water; H4325
12
And they gave H5414 him a piece H6400 of a cake H1690 of figs, and two H8147 clusters H6778 of raisins: H6778 and when he had eaten, H398 his spirit H7307 came H7725 again H7725 to him: for he had eaten H398 no H3808 bread, H3899 nor H3808 drunk H8354 any water, H4325 three H7969 days H3117 and three H7969 nights. H3915
13
And David H1732 said H559 to him, To whom H4310 belong you? and from where H335 H2088 are you? And he said, H559 I am a young H5288 man of Egypt, H4713 servant H5650 to an Amalekite; H6003 and my master H113 left H5800 me, because H3588 three H7969 days ago I fell sick. H2470
14
We made an invasion H6584 on the south H5045 of the Cherethites, H3774 and on the coast which H834 belongs to Judah, H3063 and on the south H5045 of Caleb; H3612 and we burned H8313 Ziklag H6860 with fire. H784
15
And David H1732 said H559 to him, Can you bring H3381 me down H3381 to this H2088 company? H1416 And he said, H559 Swear H7650 to me by God, H430 that you will neither H518 kill H4191 me, nor H518 deliver H5462 me into the hands H3027 of my master, H113 and I will bring H3381 you down H3381 to this H2088 company. H1416
16
And when he had brought H3381 him down, H3381 behold, H2009 they were spread H5203 abroad H5203 on all H3605 the earth, H776 eating H398 and drinking, H8354 and dancing, H2287 because of all H3605 the great H1419 spoil H7998 that they had taken H3947 out of the land H776 of the Philistines, H6430 and out of the land H776 of Judah. H3063
17
And David H1732 smote H5221 them from the twilight H5399 even to the evening H6153 of the next H4283 day: H4283 and there escaped H4422 not a man H376 of them, save H3588 H518 four H702 hundred H3967 young H5288 men, H376 which H834 rode H7392 on camels, H1581 and fled. H5127
