9DavidH1732 1attackedH5221 the landH776 and did not leaveH2421 a manH376 or a womanH802 aliveH2421, and he 2tookH3947 the sheepH6629, the cattleH1241, the donkeysH2543, the camelsH1581, and the clothingH899. Then he returnedH7725 and cameH935 to AchishH397.

10Now AchishH397 saidH559, “3WhereH575 did you 4carryH6584 outH6584 anH6584 attackH6584 todayH3117?” And DavidH1732 saidH559, “AgainstH5921 the 5NegevH5045 of JudahH3063, againstH5921 the 6NegevH5045 of 7the JerahmeelitesH3397, and againstH413 the 8NegevH5045 of 9the KenitesH7017.”

11And DavidH1732 did not leaveH2421 a manH376 or a womanH802 aliveH2421 to bringH935 to GathH1661, sayingH559, “OtherwiseH6435 they will tellH5046 aboutH5921 us, sayingH559, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 DavidH1732 has doneH6213, and thisH3541 has been his practiceH4941 allH3605 the timeH3117 that he has livedH3427 in the countryH7704 of the PhilistinesH6430.’”
