1 Samuel 30:11-15
11David’s men found an Egyptian in the open country and brought him to David. They gave him some bread to eat and water to drink.
12Then they gave him some pressed figs and two clusters of raisins. After he ate he revived, for he hadn’t eaten food or drunk water for three days and three nights.
13Then David said to him, “Who do you belong to? Where are you from?” “I’m an Egyptian, the slave of an Amalekite man,” he said. “My master abandoned me when I got sick three days ago.
14We raided the south country of the Cherethites, the territory of Judah, and the south country of Caleb, and we burned Ziklag.”
15David then asked him, “Will you lead me to these raiders?” He said, “Swear to me by God that you won’t kill me or turn me over to my master, and I will lead you to them.”
