1 Samuel 30:17-18

30:17 But David struck them down from twilight until the following evening. None of them escaped, with the exception of four hundred young men who got away on camels. ¹  30:18 David retrieved everything the Amalekites had taken; he ²  also rescued his two wives.

Jude 1:16

1:16 These people are grumblers and ³  fault-finders who go ⁴  wherever their desires lead them, ⁵  and they give bombastic speeches, ⁶  enchanting folks ⁷  for their own gain. ⁸ 

¹ tn Heb “who rode on camels and fled.”

² tn Heb “David.” The pronoun (“he”) has been substituted for the proper name in the translation for stylistic reasons.

³ tn “And” is not in Greek, but is supplied for the sake of English style.

⁴ tn Or “going.” Though the participle is anarthrous, so also is the subject. Thus, the participle could be either adverbial or adjectival.

⁵ tn Grk “(who go/going) according to their own lusts.”

⁶ tn Grk “and their mouth speaks bombastic things.”

⁷ sn Enchanting folks (Grk “awing faces”) refers to the fact that the speeches of these false teachers are powerful and seductive.

⁸ tn Or “to their own advantage.”
