Contextual Overview
1 Now when David and his men were come to Siceleg on the third day, the Amalecites had made an invasion on the south side upon Siceleg, and had smitten Siceleg, and burnt it with fire, 2 And had taken the women captives that were in it, both little and great: and they had not killed any person, but had carried them with them, and went on their way. 3 So when David and his men came to the city, and found it burnt with fire, and that their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives, 4 David and the people that were with him, lifted up their voices, and wept till they had no more tears. 5 For the two wives also of David were taken captives, Achinoam, the Jezrahelitess, and Abigail, the wife of Nabal of Carmel. 6 And David was greatly afflicted: for the people had a mind to stone him, for the soul of every man was bitterly grieved for his sons and daughters: but David took courage in the Lord his God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
So David and his men came to the city,.... Or however to the place where it had stood, and where it now lay in ruins:
and, behold, [it was] burnt with fire; the whole city was laid in ashes:
and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives; as it appeared afterwards; for upon their first coming they knew not but they were all destroyed; and which they might reasonably suppose from their former treatment of them, unless there were any left upon the spot which could inform them how things were, which does not appear, and which must make their distress the greater.
