¹⁷ And Dauid layde vpon them from the twylyght vntyll the euen on the morow: so that there escaped not a man, saue foure hundre a young men, whyche rodde awaye vpon cameles and fledde. ¹⁸ And Dauid recouered all that the Amalekites had caryed awaye, and his two wyues, ¹⁹ so that there was no persone lackynge smal or great, sonne or doughter, or of the spoyle of all that they had take awaye, Dauid brought all againe. ²⁰ And Dauid toke all the shepe, and the oxen.
