1 Samuel 30:6-9
6And DavidH1732 was greatlyH3966 distressedH3334; for the peopleH5971 spakeH559 of stoningH5619 him, because the soulH5315 of all the peopleH5971 was grievedH4843, every manH376 for his sonsH1121 and for his daughtersH1323: but DavidH1732 encouragedH2388 himself in YhwhH3068 his GodH430.1
7And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbiatharH54 the priestH3548, Ahimelech’sH288 sonH1121, I pray thee, bring me hitherH5066 the ephodH646. And AbiatharH54 broughtH5066 thither the ephodH646 to DavidH1732.
8And DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 at YhwhH3068, sayingH559, Shall I pursueH7291 afterH310 this troopH1416? shall I overtakeH5381 them? And he answeredH559 him, PursueH7291: for thou shalt surelyH5381 overtakeH5381 them, and without failH5337 recoverH5337 all.
9So DavidH1732 wentH3212, he and the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 that were with him, and cameH935 to the brookH5158 BesorH1308, where those that were left behindH3498 stayedH5975.
