KJVP SA1 30:1 And it came
to pass, when David
and his men
were come
to Ziklag
on the third
day
, that the Amalekites
had invaded
the south
, and Ziklag
, and smitten
Ziklag
, and burned
it with fire
;
KJVP SA1 30:2 And had taken the women
captives
, that were therein: they slew
not any
, either great
or small
, but carried
them away, and went
on their way
.
KJVP SA1 30:3 So David
and his men
came
to the city
, and, behold
, it was burned
with fire
; and their wives
, and their sons
, and their daughters
, were taken captives
.
KJVP SA1 30:4 Then David
and the people
that were with him lifted
up their voice
and wept
, until
-
they had no
more power
to weep
.
KJVP SA1 30:5 And David?s
two
wives
were taken captives
, Ahinoam
the Jezreelitess
, and Abigail
the wife
of Nabal
the Carmelite
.
KJVP SA1 30:6 And David
was greatly
distressed
; for the people
spake
of stoning
him, because
the soul
of all
the people
was grieved
, every man
for his sons
and for his daughters
: but David
encouraged
himself in the LORD
his God
.
KJVP SA1 30:7 And David
said
to Abiathar
the priest
, Ahimelech?s
son
, I pray
thee, bring
me hither
the ephod
. And Abiathar
brought
thither the ephod
to David
.
KJVP SA1 30:8 And David
inquired
at the LORD
, saying
, Shall I pursue
after
this
troop
? shall I overtake
them? And he answered
him, Pursue
: for thou shalt surely overtake
them, and without fail recover
all.
KJVP SA1 30:9 So David
went
, he and the six
hundred
men
that were with him, and came
to the brook
Besor
, where those that were left
behind
stayed
.
KJVP SA1 30:10 But David
pursued
, he and four
hundred
men
: for two hundred
abode
behind
, which
were so faint
that they could not go
over
the brook
Besor
.
KJVP SA1 30:11 And they found
an Egyptian
in the field
, and brought
him to David
, and gave
him bread
, and he did eat
; and they made him drink
water
;
KJVP SA1 30:12 And they gave
him a piece
of a cake
of figs, and two
clusters
of raisins
: and when he had eaten
, his spirit
came
again
to him: for he had eaten
no
bread
, nor
drunk
any water
, three
days
and three
nights
.
KJVP SA1 30:13 And David
said
unto him, To whom
belongest thou? and whence
-
art thou? And he said
, I am a young
man of Egypt
, servant
to an Amalekite
; and my master
left
me, because
three
days ago I fell sick
.
KJVP SA1 30:14 We made an invasion
upon the south
of the Cherethites
, and upon the coast which
belongeth to Judah
, and upon the south
of Caleb
; and we burned
Ziklag
with fire
.
KJVP SA1 30:15 And David
said
to him, Canst thou bring
me down
to this
company
? And he said
, Swear
unto me by God
, that thou wilt neither
kill
me, nor
deliver
me into the hands
of my master
, and I will bring
thee down
to this
company
.
KJVP SA1 30:16 And when he had brought
him down
, behold
, they were spread
abroad
upon all
the earth
, eating
and drinking
, and dancing
, because of all
the great
spoil
that they had taken
out of the land
of the Philistines
, and out of the land
of Judah
.
KJVP SA1 30:17 And David
smote
them from the twilight
even unto the evening
of the next
day
: and there escaped
not a man
of them, save
-
four
hundred
young
men
, which
rode
upon camels
, and fled
.
KJVP SA1 30:18 And David
recovered
all
that the Amalekites
had carried
away: and David
rescued
his two
wives
.
KJVP SA1 30:19 And there was nothing
lacking
to them, neither
small
nor
great
, neither
sons
nor
daughters
, neither
spoil
, nor
any
thing that they had taken
to them: David
recovered
all
.
KJVP SA1 30:20 And David
took
all
the flocks
and the herds
, which they drave
before
those
other cattle
, and said
, This
is David?s
spoil
.
KJVP SA1 30:21 And David
came
to the two hundred
men
, which
were so faint
that they could not follow
-
David
, whom they had made also to abide
at the brook
Besor
: and they went
forth
to meet
David
, and to meet
the people
that were with him: and when David
came
near
to the people
, he saluted
-
them.
KJVP SA1 30:22 Then answered
all
the wicked
men
and men of Belial
, of those that went
with David
, and said
, Because
they went
not with us, we will not give
them ought of the spoil
that we have recovered
, save
-
to every man
his wife
and his children
, that they may lead
them away, and depart
.
KJVP SA1 30:23 Then said
David
, Ye shall not do
so
, my brethren
, with that which
the LORD
hath given
us, who hath preserved
us, and delivered
the company
that came
against
us into our hand
.
KJVP SA1 30:24 For who
will hearken
unto you in this
matter
? but as his part
is that goeth
down
to the battle
, so shall his part
be that tarrieth
by the stuff
: they shall part
alike
.
KJVP SA1 30:25 And it was so from that day
forward
, that he made
it a statute
and an ordinance
for Israel
unto this
day
.
KJVP SA1 30:26 And when David
came
to Ziklag
, he sent
of the spoil
unto the elders
of Judah
, even to his friends
, saying
, Behold
a present
for you of the spoil
of the enemies
of the LORD
;
KJVP SA1 30:27 To them which
were in Bethel
, and to them which
were in south
Ramoth
, and to them which
were in Jattir
,
KJVP SA1 30:28 And to them which
were in Aroer
, and to them which
were in Siphmoth
, and to them which
were in Eshtemoa
,
KJVP SA1 30:29 And to them which
were in Rachal
, and to them which
were in the cities
of the Jerahmeelites
, and to them which
were in the cities
of the Kenites
,
KJVP SA1 30:30 And to them which
were in Hormah
, and to them which
were in Chorashan
, and to them which
were in Athach
,
KJVP SA1 30:31 And to them which were in Hebron
, and to all
the places
where
-
David
himself and his men
were wont
to haunt
.
