New Testament

1 Samuel 30:16-20 Modern English Version (MEV)

16. When he brought him down, they were spread out over all the land, eating, drinking, and dancing, because of all the great spoil which they had taken from the land of the Philistines and from the land of Judah.

17. David struck them from twilight until the evening of the next day, and no man escaped except four hundred young men who rode on camels and fled.

18. So David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken, and David rescued his two wives.

19. Now there was nothing missing, from the smallest thing to the greatest, neither sons, nor daughters, or plunder, or anything which they had taken. David brought back all of it.

20. And David took all the flocks and the herds, which they drove before the other livestock. And they said, “This is David’s spoil.”
