1 Samuel 30:1-9

1And it cameH935 to passH935, when DavidH1732 and his menH376 were comeH935 to ZiklagH6860 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117, that the AmalekitesH6003 had madeH6584 a raidH6584 uponH935 the SouthH5045, and uponH935 ZiklagH6860, and had smittenH5221 ZiklagH6860, and burnedH8313 it with fireH784;

2and had takenH7617 captiveH7617 the womenH802 and allH5704 that were therein, bothH4191 smallH6996 and greatH1419: they slew notH3808 anyH376, but carriedH7617 them offH7617, and wentH376 their wayH1870.

3And when DavidH1732 and his menH376 cameH935 to the cityH5892, beholdH2009, it was burnedH8313 with fireH784; and their wivesH802, and their sonsH1121, and their daughtersH1323, were takenH7617 captivesH7617.

4Then DavidH1732 and the peopleH5971 that were with him liftedH5375 upH5375 their voiceH6963 and weptH1058, untilH5704 they had noH369 moreH369 powerH3581 to weepH1058.

5And David’sH1732 twoH8147 wivesH802 were takenH7617 captivesH7617, AhinoamH293 the JezreelitessH3159, and AbigailH26 the wifeH802 of NabalH5037 the CarmeliteH3761.

6And DavidH1732 was greatlyH3966 distressed; for the peopleH5971 spake of stoningH5619 him, becauseH3588 the soulH5315 of allH3605 the peopleH5971 was grieved, everyH3605 manH376 for his sonsH1121 and for his daughtersH1323: but DavidH1732 strengthenedH2388 himselfH5315 in the LORDH3068 his GodH430.

7And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbiatharH54 the priestH3548, the sonH1121 of AhimelechH288, I prayH4994 thee, bringH5066 meH413 hither the ephodH646. And AbiatharH54 broughtH5066 thither the ephodH646 to DavidH1732.

8And DavidH1732 inquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, sayingH559, IfH3588 I pursueH7291 afterH310 this troopH1416, shall I overtakeH5381 them? And he answeredH559 him, PursueH7291: for thou shalt surelyH3588 overtakeH5381 them, and shalt without fail recoverH5337 allH5337.

9SoH834 DavidH1732 wentH935, he and the sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 that were with him, and cameH935 to the brookH5158 BesorH1308, whereH834 thoseH834 that were leftH3498 behindH3498 stayedH5975.
