1 Samuel 30:9-20

30:9

So David
<01732>

went
<03212> (8799)_,

he and the six
<08337>

hundred
<03967>

men
<0376>

that [were] with him, and came
<0935> (8799)

to the brook
<05158>

Besor
<01308>_,

where those that were left behind
<03498> (8737)

stayed
<05975> (8804)_.

30:10

But David
<01732>

pursued
<07291> (8799)_,

he and four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

men
<0376>_:

for two hundred
<03967>

abode behind
<05975> (8799)_,

which were so faint
<06296> (8765)

that they could not go over
<05674> (8800)

the brook
<05158>

Besor
<01308>_.

30:11

And they found
<04672> (8799)

an Egyptian
<0376> <04713>

in the field
<07704>_,

and brought
<03947> (8799)

him to David
<01732>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

him bread
<03899>_,

and he did eat
<0398> (8799)_;

and they made him drink
<08248> (8686)

water
<04325>_;

30:12

And they gave
<05414> (8799)

him a piece
<06400>

of a cake
<01690>

of figs, and two
<08147>

clusters of raisins
<06778>_:

and when he had eaten
<0398> (8799)_,

his spirit
<07307>

came again
<07725> (8799)

to him: for he had eaten
<0398> (8804)

no bread
<03899>_,

nor drunk
<08354> (8804)

[any] water
<04325>_,

three
<07969>

days
<03117>

and three
<07969>

nights
<03915>_.

30:13

And David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, To whom [belongest] thou? and whence [art] thou? And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I [am] a young man
<05288>

of Egypt
<04713>_,

servant
<05650>

to an Amalekite
<0376> <06003>_;

and my master
<0113>

left
<05800> (8799)

me, because three
<07969>

days
<03117>

agone I fell sick
<02470> (8804)_.

30:14

We made an invasion
<06584> (8804)

[upon] the south
<05045>

of the Cherethites
<03774>_,

and upon [the coast] which [belongeth] to Judah
<03063>_,

and upon the south
<05045>

of Caleb
<03612>_;

and we burned
<08313> (8804)

Ziklag
<06860>

with fire
<0784>_.

30:15

And David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

to him, Canst thou bring me down
<03381> (8686)

to this company
<01416>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Swear
<07650> (8734)

unto me by God
<0430>_,

that thou wilt neither kill
<04191> (8686)

me, nor
<0518>

deliver
<05462> (8686)

me into the hands
<03027>

of my master
<0113>_,

and I will bring thee down
<03381> (8686)

to this company
<01416>_.

30:16

And when he had brought him down
<03381> (8686)_,

behold, [they were] spread abroad
<05203> (8803)

upon all
<06440>

the earth
<0776>_,

eating
<0398> (8802)

and drinking
<08354> (8802)_,

and dancing
<02287> (8802)_,

because of all the great
<01419>

spoil
<07998>

that they had taken
<03947> (8804)

out of the land
<0776>

of the Philistines
<06430>_,

and out of the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_.

30:17

And David
<01732>

smote
<05221> (8686)

them from the twilight
<05399>

even unto the evening
<06153>

of the next day
<04283>_:

and there escaped
<04422> (8738)

not a man
<0376>

of them, save four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

young
<05288>

men
<0376>_,

which rode
<07392> (8804)

upon camels
<01581>_,

and fled
<05127> (8799)_.

{the next...: Heb. their morrow}

30:18

And David
<01732>

recovered
<05337> (8686)

all that the Amalekites
<06002>

had carried away
<03947> (8804)_:

and David
<01732>

rescued
<05337> (8689)

his two
<08147>

wives
<0802>_.

30:19

And there was nothing lacking
<05737> (8738)

to them, neither
<04480>

small
<06996>

nor great
<01419>_,

neither sons
<01121>

nor daughters
<01323>_,

neither spoil
<07998>_,

nor any [thing] that they had taken
<03947> (8804)

to them: David
<01732>

recovered
<07725> (8689)

all.

30:20

And David
<01732>

took
<03947> (8799)

all the flocks
<06629>

and the herds
<01241>_,

[which] they drave
<05090> (8804)

before
<06440>

those
<01931>

[other] cattle
<04735>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

This [is] David's
<01732>

spoil
<07998>_.
