Amplified Bible
1 Samuel 30:1-5
1Now it happened when David and his men came [home] to Ziklag on the third day, [they found] that the Amalekites had made a raid on the Negev (the South country) and on Ziklag, and had overthrown Ziklag and burned it with fire;
2and they had taken captive the women [and all] who were there, both small and great. They killed no one, but carried them off [to be used as slaves] and went on their way.
3When David and his men came to the town, it was burned, and their wives and their sons and their daughters had been taken captive.
4Then David and the people who were with him raised their voices and wept until they were too exhausted to weep [any longer].
5Now David’s two wives had been captured, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess and Abigail the widow of Nabal the Carmelite.
