3 And David will come, and his men, to the city, and behold, it burnt with fire, and their wives and their sons and their daughters were taken captive. 4 And David will lift up, and the people with him, their voice, and they will weep till power was not in them to weep. 5 And the two wives of David were taken captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail, the wife of Nabal the Carmelite. 6 And it will press upon David greatly, for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was bitter, each for his sons and for his daughters: and David will be strengthened in Jehovah his God. 7 And David will say to Abiathar the priest, son of Ahimelech, Bring now near to me the ephod. And Abiathar will bring near the ephod to David. 8 And David will ask in Jehovah, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I hedge it in? and he will say, Pursue: and hedging, thou shalt hedge in, and taking away, thou shalt take away. 1 Samuel 30:3-8, Smith's Literal Translation.
