1 Samuel 30

Webster_Strongs(i)
  1 H1732 And it came to pass, when David H582 and his men H935 [H8800] were come H6860 to Ziklag H7992 on the third H3117 day H6003 , that the Amalekites H6584 [H8804] had invaded H5045 the south H6860 , and Ziklag H5221 [H8686] , and smitten H6860 Ziklag H8313 [H8799] , and burned H784 it with fire;
  2 H802 And had taken the women H7617 [H8799] captives H4191 [H8689] , that were in it: they slew H376 not any H1419 , either great H6996 or small H5090 [H8799] , but carried them away H3212 [H8799] , and went H1870 on their way.
  3 H1732 So David H582 and his men H935 [H8799] came H5892 to the city H8313 [H8803] , and, behold, it was burned H784 with fire H802 ; and their wives H1121 , and their sons H1323 , and their daughters H7617 [H8738] , were taken captives.
  4 H1732 Then David H5971 and the people H5375 [H8799] that were with him lifted up H6963 their voice H1058 [H8799] and wept H3581 , until they had no more power H1058 [H8800] to weep.
  5 H1732 And David's H8147 two H802 wives H7617 [H8738] were taken captives H293 , Ahinoam H3159 the Jezreelitess H26 , and Abigail H802 the wife H5037 of Nabal H3761 the Carmelite.
  6 H1732 And David H3966 was greatly H3334 [H8799] distressed H5971 ; for the people H559 [H8804] spoke H5619 [H8800] of stoning H5315 him, because the soul H5971 of all the people H4843 [H8804] was grieved H376 , every man H1121 for his sons H1323 and for his daughters H1732 : but David H2388 [H8691] encouraged H3068 himself in the LORD H430 his God.
  7 H1732 And David H559 [H8799] said H54 to Abiathar H3548 the priest H288 , Ahimelech's H1121 son H5066 [H8685] , I pray thee, bring me here H646 the ephod H54 . And Abiathar H5066 [H8686] brought H646 there the ephod H1732 to David.
  8 H1732 And David H7592 [H8799] enquired H3068 of the LORD H559 [H8800] , saying H7291 H310 [H8799] , Shall I pursue H1416 this troop H5381 [H8686] ? shall I overtake H559 [H8799] them? And he answered H7291 [H8798] him, Pursue H5381 [H8687] : for thou shalt surely H5381 [H8686] overtake H5337 [H8687] them, and without fail H5337 [H8686] recover all.
  9 H1732 So David H3212 [H8799] went H8337 , he and the six H3967 hundred H376 men H935 [H8799] that were with him, and came H5158 to the brook H1308 Besor H3498 [H8737] , where those that were left behind H5975 [H8804] remained.
  10 H1732 But David H7291 [H8799] pursued H702 , he and four H3967 hundred H376 men H3967 : for two hundred H5975 [H8799] abode behind H6296 [H8765] , who were so faint H5674 [H8800] that they could not go over H5158 the brook H1308 Besor.
  11 H4672 [H8799] And they found H376 H4713 an Egyptian H7704 in the field H3947 [H8799] , and brought H1732 him to David H5414 [H8799] , and gave H3899 him bread H398 [H8799] , and he ate H8248 [H8686] ; and they made him drink H4325 water;
  12 H5414 [H8799] And they gave H6400 him a piece H1690 of a cake H8147 of figs, and two H6778 clusters of raisins H398 [H8799] : and when he had eaten H7307 , his spirit H7725 [H8799] came again H398 [H8804] to him: for he had eaten H3899 no bread H8354 [H8804] , nor drunk H4325 any water H7969 , three H3117 days H7969 and three H3915 nights.
  13 H1732 And David H559 [H8799] said H559 [H8799] to him, To whom belongest thou? and from where art thou? And he said H5288 , I am a young man H4713 of Egypt H5650 , servant H376 H6003 to an Amalekite H113 ; and my master H5800 [H8799] left H7969 me, because three H3117 days H2470 [H8804] ago I fell sick.
  14 H6584 [H8804] We made an invasion H5045 upon the south H3774 of the Cherethites H3063 , and upon the land which belongeth to Judah H5045 , and upon the south H3612 of Caleb H8313 [H8804] ; and we burned H6860 Ziklag H784 with fire.
  15 H1732 And David H559 [H8799] said H3381 [H8686] to him, Canst thou bring me down H1416 to this company H559 [H8799] ? And he said H7650 [H8734] , Swear H430 to me by God H4191 [H8686] , that thou wilt neither kill H518 me, nor H5462 [H8686] deliver H3027 me into the hands H113 of my master H3381 [H8686] , and I will bring thee down H1416 to this company.
  16 H3381 [H8686] And when he had brought him down H5203 [H8803] , behold, they were spread abroad H6440 upon all H776 the earth H398 [H8802] , eating H8354 [H8802] and drinking H2287 [H8802] , and dancing H1419 , because of all the great H7998 spoil H3947 [H8804] that they had taken H776 from the land H6430 of the Philistines H776 , and from the land H3063 of Judah.
  17 H1732 And David H5221 [H8686] smote H5399 them from the twilight H6153 even to the evening H4283 of the next day H4422 [H8738] : and there escaped H376 not a man H702 of them, except four H3967 hundred H5288 young H376 men H7392 [H8804] , who rode H1581 upon camels H5127 [H8799] , and fled.
  18 H1732 And David H5337 [H8686] recovered H6002 all that the Amalekites H3947 [H8804] had carried away H1732 : and David H5337 [H8689] rescued H8147 his two H802 wives.
  19 H5737 [H8738] And there was nothing lacking H4480 to them, neither H6996 small H1419 nor great H1121 , neither sons H1323 nor daughters H7998 , neither spoil H3947 [H8804] , nor any thing that they had taken H1732 to them: David H7725 [H8689] recovered all.
  20 H1732 And David H3947 [H8799] took H6629 all the flocks H1241 and the herds H5090 [H8804] , which they drove H6440 before H1931 those H4735 other cattle H559 [H8799] , and said H1732 , This is David's H7998 spoil.
  21 H1732 And David H935 [H8799] came H3967 to the two hundred H582 men H6296 [H8765] , who were so faint H3212 H310 [H8800] that they could not follow H1732 David H3427 [H8686] , whom they had made also to abide H5158 at the brook H1308 Besor H3318 [H8799] : and they went forth H7125 [H8800] to meet H1732 David H7125 [H8800] , and to meet H5971 the people H1732 that were with him: and when David H5066 [H8799] came near H5971 to the people H7592 H7965 [H8799] , he greeted them.
  22 H6030 [H8799] Then answered H7451 all the wicked H1100 and worthless H376 men H582 , of those H1980 [H8804] that went H1732 with David H559 [H8799] , and said H1980 [H8804] , Because they went H5414 [H8799] not with us, we will not give H7998 them any of the spoil H5337 [H8689] that we have recovered H376 , except to every man H802 his wife H1121 and his children H5090 [H8799] , that they may lead them away H3212 [H8799] , and depart.
  23 H559 [H8799] Then said H1732 David H6213 [H8799] , Ye shall not do so H251 , my brethren H3068 , with that which the LORD H5414 [H8804] hath given H8104 [H8799] us, who hath preserved H5414 [H8799] us, and delivered H1416 the company H935 [H8802] that came H3027 against us into our hand.
  24 H8085 [H8799] For who will hearken H1697 to you in this matter H2506 ? but as his part H3381 H3381 [H8802] is that goeth down H4421 to the battle H2506 , so shall his part H3427 [H8802] be that tarrieth H3627 by the baggage H2505 [H8799] : they shall divide H3162 alike.
  25 H3117 And it was so from that day H4605 onward H7760 [H8799] , that he made H2706 it a statute H4941 and an ordinance H3478 for Israel H3117 to this day.
  26 H1732 And when David H935 [H8799] came H6860 to Ziklag H7971 [H8762] , he sent H7998 of the spoil H2205 to the elders H3063 of Judah H7453 , even to his friends H559 [H8800] , saying H1293 , Behold a present H7998 for you of the spoil H341 [H8802] of the enemies H3068 of the LORD;
  27 H834 To them H1008 who were in Bethel H5045 , and to them who were in south H7418 Ramoth H3492 , and to them who were in Jattir,
  28 H6177 And to them who were in Aroer H8224 , and to them who were in Siphmoth H851 , and to them who were in Eshtemoa,
  29 H7403 And to them who were in Rachal H5892 , and to them who were in the cities H3397 of the Jerahmeelites H5892 , and to them who were in the cities H7017 of the Kenites,
  30 H2767 And to them who were in Hormah H3565 , and to them who were in Chorashan H6269 , and to them who were in Athach,
  31 H2275 And to them who were in Hebron H4725 , and to all the places H1732 where David H582 himself and his men H1980 [H8694] were accustomed to resort.
