Contextual Overview
7 And David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, Please bring the ephod near to me. And Abiathar brought the ephod to David. 8 And David asked of Jehovah, saying, Shall I pursue this troop? Shall I overtake it? And He said to him, Pursue, for you shall certainly overtake, and shall certainly recover. 9 So David went on, he and six hundred men who were with him. And they came to the torrent Besor. And those that were left stood. 10 And David pursued, he and four hundred men; for two hundred men stood, who were too exhausted to pass over the torrent Besor. 11 And they found a man, an Egyptian, in the field, and took him to David, and gave him food, and he ate. And they made him drink water. 12 And they gave to him a piece of fig-cake, and two bunches of raisins. And he ate, and his spirit returned to him, for he had not eaten food nor drunk water three days and three nights. 13 And David said to him, Whose are you? And from where do you come? And he said, I am an Egyptian youth, slave to an Amalekite man. And my lord abandoned me, for I had been sick three days. 14 We raided the south of the Cherethites, and went against that belonging to Judah, and against the south of Caleb. And we burned Ziklag with fire. 15 And David said to him, Are you able to bring me down to this troop? And he said, Swear to me by God that you will neither put me to death, nor deliver me up into my master's hand, and I will bring you down to this troop. 16 And he brought him down. And, behold, they were spread out over the face of all the earth, eating and drinking and feasting, with all the great plunder which they had taken out of the landof the Philistines, and out of the land ofJudah.
