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.
6 Now David was greatly distressed, for athe people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was1 grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. bBut David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.
7 aThen David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech’s son, “Please bring the ephod here to me.” And bAbiathar brought the ephod to David.
8 aSo David inquired of the Lord, saying, “Shall I pursue this troop? Shall I overtake them?” And He answered him, “Pursue, for you shall surely overtake them and without fail recover all.”
9 So David went, he and the six hundred men who were with him, and came to the Brook Besor, where those stayed who were left behind.
10 But David pursued, he and four hundred men; afor two hundred stayed behind, who were so weary that they could not cross the Brook Besor.
