 30:1 ¶ And it came to pass when David and his men had entered Ziklag{gr.Sekelac} on the third day, that Amalek{gr.Amalec} had made an incursion upon the south, and upon Ziklag{gr.Sekelac}, and smitten Ziklag{gr.Sekelac}, and burnt it with fire.

 30:1 ¶ And it came to pass,º when Davidº and his menºº were comeºº to Ziklagº on the thirdº day,º that the Amalekitesº had invadedººº the south,º and Ziklag,º and smittenººº Ziklag,º and burnedºº it with fire;º

 30:2 And as to the women and all things that were in it, great and small, they slew neither man nor woman, but carried them captives, and went on their way.

 30:2 And had taken the womenº captives,ºººº thatº [were] therein: they slewºº notº any,º eitherº greatº or small,ºº but carried [them] away,ºº and wentººº on their way.º

 30:3 ¶ And David and his men came into the city, and, behold, it was burnt with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters were carried captive.

 30:3 ¶ So Davidº and his menºº cameºº toº the city,º and, behold,º [it was] burnedºº with fire;º and their wives,º and their sons,º and their daughters,º were taken captives.ºº

 30:4 And David and his men lifted up their voice, and wept till there was no longer any power within them to weep.

 30:4 Then Davidº and the peopleº thatº [were] withº him lifted upººº their voiceº and wept,ºº untilºº they had no moreº powerº to weep.ºº

 30:5 And both the wives of David were carried captive, Achinaam, the Jezreelitess{gr.Jezraelitess}, and Abigail{gr.Abigaia} the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.

 30:5 And David'sº twoº wivesº were taken captives,ºº Ahinoamº the Jezreelitess,º and Abigailº the wifeº of Nabalº the Carmelite.º

 30:6 And David was greatly distressed, because the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, each for his sons and his daughters: but David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.

 30:6 And Davidº was greatlyº distressed;ºº forº the peopleº spakeºº of stoningºº him, becauseº the soulº of allº the peopleº was grieved,ºº every manº forº his sonsº and forº his daughters:º but Davidº encouragedºº himselfº in Yahwehº his Elohim.º

 30:7 And David said to Abiathar the priest the son of Ahimelech{gr.Achimelech}, Bring near the ephod.

 30:7 And Davidº saidºº toº Abiatharº the priest,º Ahimelech'sº son,º I pray thee,º bring me hitherºº the ephod.º And Abiatharº broughtºº thitherº the ephodº toº David.º

 30:8 And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? and he said to him, Pursue, for thou shalt surely overtake them, and thou shalt surely rescue [the captives].

 30:8 And Davidº enquiredºº at Yahweh,º saying,ºº Shall I pursueºº afterº thisº troop?º shall I overtakeºº them? And he answeredºº him, Pursue:ºº forº thou shalt surelyºº overtakeºº [them], and without failºº recoverºº [all].

 30:9 So David went, he an the six hundred men with him, an they come as far as the brook Bezer{gr.Bosor}, and the superfluous ones stopped.

 30:9 So Davidº went,ººº heº and the sixº hundredº menº thatº [were] withº him, and cameºº toº the brookº Besor,º where those that were left behindºº stayed.ºº

 30:10 And he pursued them with four hundred men; and there remained behind two hundred men, who tarried on the other side of the brook Bezer{gr.Bosor}.

 30:10 But Davidº pursued,ºº heº and fourº hundredº men:º for two hundredºº abode behind,ºº whichº were so faintºº that they could not go overºººº the brookº Besor.º

 30:11 ¶ And they find a Mizraimite{gr.Egyptian} in the field, and they take him, and bring him to David; and they gave him bread and he ate, and they caused him to drink water.

 30:11 ¶ And they foundºº an Egyptianºº in the field,º and broughtºº him toº David,º and gaveºº him bread,º and he did eat;ºº and they made him drinkºº water;º

 30:12 And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and he ate, and his spirit was restored in him; for he had not eaten bread, and had not drunk water three days and three nights.

 30:12 And they gaveºº him a pieceº of a cakeº of figs,º and twoº clusters of raisins:º and when he had eaten,ºº his spiritº came againºº toº him: forº he had eatenºº noº bread,º norº drunkºº [any] water,º threeº daysº and threeº nights.º

 30:13 And David said to him, Whose art thou? and whence art thou? and the young man the Mizraimite{gr.Egyptian} said, I am the servant of an Amalekite; and my master left me, because I was taken ill three days ago.

 30:13 And Davidº saidºº unto him, To whomº [belongest] thou?º and whenceººº [art] thou?º And he said,ºº Iº [am] a young manº of Egypt,º servantº to an Amalekite;ºº and my adonº leftºº me, becauseº threeº daysº agone I fell sick.ºº

 30:14 And we made an incursion on the south of the Chelethite, and on the parts of Judah{gr.Judea}, and on the south of Chelub, and we burnt Ziklag{gr.Sekelac} with fire.

 30:14 Weº made an invasionºº [upon] the southº of the Cherethites,º and uponº [the coast] whichº [belongeth] to Judah,º and uponº the southº of Caleb;º and we burnedºº Ziklagº with fire.º

 30:15 And David said to him, Wilt thou bring me down to this troop? And he said, Swear now to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, and that thou wilt not deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee down upon this troop.

 30:15 And Davidº saidºº toº him, Canst thou bring me downºº toº thisº company?º And he said,ºº Swearºº unto me by Elohim,º that thou wilt neitherº killºº me, norº deliverºº me into the handsº of my adon,º and I will bring thee downºº toº thisº company.º

 30:16 ¶ So be brought him down thither, and behold, they [were] scattered abroad upon the surface of the whole land, eating and drinking, and feasting by [reason of] all the great spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah{gr.Juda}.

 30:16 ¶ And when he had brought him down,ºº behold,º [they were] spread abroadºº uponºº allºº the earth,º eatingºº and drinking,ºº and dancing,ºº because of allº the greatº spoilº thatº they had takenºº out of the landºº of the Philistines,º and out of the landºº of Judah.º

 30:17 And David came upon them, and smote them from the morning till the evening, and on the next day; and not one of them escaped, except four hundred young men, who were mounted on camels, and fled.

 30:17 And Davidº smoteºº them from the twilightºº even untoº the eveningº of the next day:º and there escapedºº notº a manº of them, saveºº fourº hundredº youngº men,º whichº rodeºº uponº camels,º and fled.ºº

 30:18 And David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken, and he rescued both his wives.

 30:18 And Davidº recoveredººº allº thatº the Amalekitesº had carried away:ºº and Davidº rescuedºº his twoº wives.º

 30:19 And nothing was wanting to them of great or small, either of the spoils, or the sons and daughters, or anything that they had taken of theirs; and David recovered all.

 30:19 And there was nothingº lackingºº to them, neitherº smallº norº great,º neitherº sonsº nor daughters,º neither spoil,ºº norº anyº [thing] thatº they had takenºº to them: Davidº recoveredºº all.º

 30:20 And he took all the flocks, and the herds, and led them away before the spoils: and it was said of these spoils, These [are] the spoils of David.

 30:20 And Davidº tookººº allº the flocksº and the herds,º [which] they draveºº beforeº thoseº [other] cattle,º and said,ºº Thisº [is] David'sº spoil.º

 30:21 ¶ And David comes to the two hundred men who were left behind that they should not follow after David, and he had caused them to remain by the brook of Bezer{gr.Bosor}; and they came forth to meet David, and to meet his people with him: and David drew near to the people, and they asked him how he did.

 30:21 ¶ And Davidº cameºº toº the two hundredº men,ºº whichº were so faintºº that they could not followºººº David,º whom they had made also to abideºº at the brookº Besor:º and they went forthºº to meetºº David,º and to meetºº the peopleº thatº [were] withº him: and when Davidº came nearºº toº the people,º he salutedººº them.

 30:22 Then every ill-disposed and bad man of the soldiers who had gone with David, answered and said, Because they did not pursue together with us, we will not give them of the spoils which we have recovered, only let each one lead away with him his wife and his children, and let them return.

 30:22 Then answeredºº allº the wickedº menº and [men] of Belial,º of thoseººº thatº wentºº withº David,º and said,ºº Becauseºº they wentºº notº withº us, we will notº giveºº them [ought] of the spoilºº thatº we have recovered,ºº saveºº to every manºº his wifeº and his children,º that they may lead [them] away,ºº and depart.ººº

 30:23 And David said, Ye shall not do so, after the Lord has delivered [the enemy] to us, and guarded us, and the Lord has delivered into our hands the troop that came against u.

 30:23 Then saidºº David,º Ye shall notº doº so,ººº my brethren,º withº that whichº Yahwehº hath givenºº us, who hath preservedºº us, and deliveredººº the companyº that cameºº againstº us into our hand.º

 30:24 And who will hearken to these your words? for they are not inferior to us; for according to the portion of him that went down to the battle, so shall be the portion of him that abides with the baggage; they shall share alike.

 30:24 For whoº will hearkenºº unto you in thisº matter?º butº as his partº [is] that goeth downºººº to the battle,º so [shall] his partº [be] that tarriethºº byº the stuff:º they shall partºº alike.º

 30:25 And it came to pass from that day forward, that it became an ordinance and a custom in Israel until this day.

 30:25 And it wasº [so] from that dayººº forward,º that he madeºº it a statuteº and an ordinanceº for Israelº untoº thisº day.º

 30:26 ¶ And David came to Ziklag{gr.Sekelac}, and sent of the spoils to the elders of Judah{gr.Juda}, and to his friends, saying, Behold [some] of the spoils of the enemies of the Lord;

 30:26 ¶ And when Davidº cameºº toº Ziklag,º he sentºº of the spoilºº unto the eldersº of Judah,º [even] to his friends,º saying,ºº Beholdº a presentº for you of the spoilºº of the enemiesºº of Yahweh;º

 30:27 to those in Baethsur, and to those in Ramah{gr.Rama} of the south, and to those in Gethor.

 30:27 To [them]º whichº [were] in Bethel,º and to [them] whichº [were] in southº Ramoth,º and to [them] whichº [were] in Jattir,º

 30:28 And to those in Aroer, and to those in Ammadi, and to those in Saphi, and to those in Esthie, and to those in Gath{gr.Geth}, and to those in Cimath, and to those in Saphec, and to those in Themath,

 30:28 And to [them] whichº [were] in Aroer,º and to [them] whichº [were] in Siphmoth,º and to [them] whichº [were] in Eshtemoa,º

 30:29 and to those in Carmel, and to those in the cities of Jerahmeel{gr.Jeremeel}, and to those in the cities of the Kenezite;

 30:29 And to [them] whichº [were] in Rachal,º and to [them] whichº [were] in the citiesº of the Jerahmeelites,º and to [them] whichº [were] in the citiesº of the Kenites,º

 30:30 and to those in Jerimuth, and to those in Beersheba{gr.Bersabee}, and to those in Nombe,

 30:30 And to [them] whichº [were] in Hormah,º and to [them] whichº [were] in Chorashan,º and to [them] whichº [were] in Athach,º

 30:31 and to those in Hebron{gr.Chebron}, and to all the places which David and his men had passed through.

 30:31 And to [them] whichº [were] in Hebron,º and to allº the placesº whereºº Davidº himselfº and his menºº were wont to haunt.ºº
