1 Samuel 30:1-9

1And it cameH935 to pass, when DavidH1732 and his menH376 cameH935 to ZiklagH6860 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117, that the Amalekites had madeH6584 a raidH6584 upon the southH5045, and upon ZiklagH6860, and smitten ZiklagH6860 and burnedH8313 it with fireH784;

2and had takenH7617 the womenH802 captivesH7617 that were in it; both greatH1419 and smallH6996: they had putH4191 none to deathH4191, but had carried them off, and went on their wayH1870.

3And DavidH1732 and his menH376 cameH935 to the cityH5892, and behold, it was burnt with fireH784; and their wivesH802, and their sonsH1121, and their daughtersH1323 were takenH7617 captivesH7617.

4Then DavidH1732 and the peopleH5971 that were with him liftedH5375 up their voiceH6963 and weptH1058, until they had no more powerH3581 to weepH1058.

5And David's twoH8147 wivesH802 were takenH7617 captivesH7617, AhinoamH293 the Jizreelitess, and AbigailH26 the wifeH802 of NabalH5037 the CarmeliteH3761.

6And DavidH1732 was greatly distressed; for the peopleH5971 spoke of stoningH5619 him; for the soulH5315 of all the peopleH5971 was embittered, every manH376 because of his sonsH1121 and because of his daughtersH1323; but DavidH1732 strengthenedH2388 himself in Jehovah his 1GodH430.

7And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbiatharH54 the priestH3548, Ahimelech's sonH1121, BringH5066 near to me, I pray thee, the ephodH646. And AbiatharH54 broughtH5066 the ephodH646 near to DavidH1732.

8And DavidH1732 inquired of Jehovah, sayingH559, Shall I pursueH7291 after this troopH1416? shall I overtakeH5381 them? And he saidH559 to him, PursueH7291; for thou shalt assuredly overtakeH5381 [them] and shalt certainly recover.

9So DavidH1732 wentH935, he and the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 that were with him, and they cameH935 to the torrent BesorH1308; and those that were leftH3498 stayed behind.
