1 Samuel 30:1

David’s Conflict with the Amalekites

1 Now it happened, when David and his men came to ^aZiklag, on the third day, that the ^bAmalekites had invaded the South and Ziklag, attacked Ziklag and burned it with fire,

2 and had taken captive the ^awomen and those who were there, from small to great; they did not kill anyone, but carried them away and went their way.

3 So David and his men came to the city, and there it was, burned with fire; and their wives, their sons, and their daughters had been taken captive.

4 Then David and the people who were with him lifted up their voices and wept, until they had no more power to weep.

5 And David’s two ^awives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the widow of Nabal the Carmelite, had been taken captive.
