1 Samuel 30:11-15

11Now his men foundH4672H376 an EgyptianH4713 in the fieldH7704 and broughtH3947 himH853 toH413 DavidH1732. They gaveH5414 the man waterH4325 to drinkH8248 and foodH3899 to eatH398— 12a pieceH6400 of a fig cakeH1690 and twoH8147 clusters of raisinsH6778. So he ateH398 and was revivedH7725H7307H413, forH3588 he had notH3808 had anyH398 foodH3899H3808 or waterH4325 for threeH7969 daysH3117 and threeH7969 nightsH3915.

13Then DavidH1732 askedH559 him, “To whomH4310 do youH859 belong, and whereH335H2088 are you fromH859?”

“I amH595 an EgyptianH4713,” he repliedH559H5288, “the slaveH5650 of an AmalekiteH6003. My masterH113 abandoned meH5800 threeH7969 days agoH3117 whenH3588 I fell illH2470. 14WeH587 raidedH6584 the NegevH5045 of the CherethitesH3774H5921, the territory of JudahH3063H5921, and the NegevH5045 of CalebH3612, and we burned downH8313H784 ZiklagH6860.”

15“Will you lead meH3381 toH413 theseH2088 raidersH1416?” DavidH1732 askedH559.

And the man repliedH559, “SwearH7650 to me by GodH430 that you will notH518 kill meH4191 or deliver meH5462 into the handH3027 of my masterH113, and I will lead youH3381 toH413 them.”
