1 Samuel 30:21-31
21When 1DavidH1732 cameH935 to the two hundredH3967 menH376 whoH834 were tooH4480 exhaustedH6296 to followH1980H310 DavidH1732 and 2had been leftH3427 behindH3427 at the brookH5158 BesorH1308, and they wentH3318 outH3318 to meetH7122 DavidH1732 and to meetH7122 the peopleH5971 whoH834 were with him, then DavidH1732 approachedH5066 the peopleH5971 and greetedH7592H7965 them. 22Then allH3605 the wickedH7451 and 3worthlessH1100 menH376 amongH4480 those whoH834 wentH1980 with DavidH1732 saidH559, “SinceH3282H834 they did not goH1980 with 4us, we will not giveH5414 them anyH4480 of the spoilsH7998 that we have recoveredH5337, exceptH3588H518 to everyH376 manH376 his wifeH802 and his childrenH1121, so that they may leadH5090 them awayH5090 and leaveH1980.” 23But DavidH1732 saidH559, “You must not doH6213 soH3651, my brothersH251, with whatH834 the LordH3068 has givenH5414 us, for He has protectedH8104 us and handedH5414H3027 overH5414 to us the bandH1416 ofH1416 raidersH1416 that cameH935 againstH5921 us. 24And whoH4310 will listenH8085 to you in thisH2088 matterH1697? For 5as is the shareH2506 of the one who goesH3381 downH3381 into the battleH4421, so shall be the shareH2506 of the one who staysH3427 by the baggageH3627; they shall shareH2505 alikeH3164.” 25So it has beenH1961 from that dayH3117 forwardH4605, that he madeH7760 it a statuteH2706 and an ordinanceH4941 for IsraelH3478 to thisH2088 dayH3117.
26Now when DavidH1732 cameH935 to ZiklagH6860, he sentH7971 some of the spoilsH7998 to the eldersH2205 of JudahH3063, to his friendsH7453, sayingH559, “BeholdH2009, 6a 7giftH1293 for you from the spoilsH7998 of 8the enemiesH340 of the LordH3068: 27to those whoH834 were in 9BethelH1008, to those whoH834 were in 10RamothH7418 ofH7418 theH7418 11NegevH7418, to those whoH834 were in 12JattirH3492, 28to those whoH834 were in 13AroerH6177, to those whoH834 were in SiphmothH8224, to those whoH834 were in 14EshtemoaH851, 29to those whoH834 were in RacalH7403, to those whoH834 were in the citiesH5892 of 15the JerahmeelitesH3397, to those whoH834 were in the citiesH5892 of 16the KenitesH7017, 30to those whoH834 were in 17HormahH2767, to those whoH834 were in 18Bor-ashanH953, to those whoH834 were in AthachH6269, 31to those whoH834 were in 19HebronH2275, and to allH3605 the placesH4725 whereH834H8033 DavidH1732 himselfH1931 and his menH376 20walkedH1980.”
