Det Norsk Bibelselskap

1 Samuel 25:13

Da sa David til sine menn: Spenn sverdet om eder, alle mann! Så spente de alle sine sverd om sig, og David spente og sverdet om sig. Og de fulgte David op; det var omkring fire hundre mann, og to hundre blev igjen ved trosset.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And David said unto his men,.... Provoked to the last degree to have such a rude churlish answer returned to such a civil and humble message as he had sent:

gird you on every man his sword; and prepare to march and chastise Nabal for his insolence:

and they girded on every man his sword; in obedience to David, and in vindication of his honour and their own:

and David also girded on his sword; in order to march at the head of them, fired with indignation at the affront given him:

and there went up after David about four hundred men; out of the six hundred he had with him, 1 Samuel 23:13;

and two hundred abode by the stuff; the baggage in their camp; the Targum is, they

"were left to watch the vessels;''

the things necessary for their use, for the dressing of their food, their bedding, &c.
