1 Samuel 30:6-10

6And DavidH1732 was greatly distressed; for the peopleH5971 spake of stoningH5619 him, because the soulH5315 of all the peopleH5971 was grieved, every manH376 for his sonsH1121 and for his daughtersH1323: but DavidH1732 strengthenedH2388 himself in Jehovah his GodH430.

7And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbiatharH54 the priestH3548, the sonH1121 of AhimelechH288, I pray thee, bringH5066 me hither the ephodH646. And AbiatharH54 broughtH5066 thither the ephodH646 to DavidH1732. 8And DavidH1732 inquired of Jehovah, sayingH559, If I pursueH7291 after this troopH1416, shall I overtakeH5381 them? And he answered him, PursueH7291; for thou shalt surely overtakeH5381 them, and shalt without fail recover all. 9So DavidH1732 wentH935, he and the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 that were with him, and cameH935 to the brook BesorH1308, whereH834 those that were leftH3498 behind stayed. 10But DavidH1732 pursuedH7291, he and fourH702 hundredH3967 menH376; for twoH3967 hundredH3967 stayed behind, who were so faint that they could not go over the brook BesorH1308.
