*
Now when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day ,
the Amal '
ekites had made a raid upon the Negeb and upon Ziklag .
They had overcome Ziklag ,
and burned it with fire ,
*
and taken captive the women and all who were in it ,
both small and great ;
they killed no one ,
but carried them off ,
and went their way .
*
And when David and his men came to the city ,
they found it burned with fire ,
and their wives and sons and daughters taken captive .
*
Then David and the people who were with him raised their voices and wept ,
until they had no more strength to weep .
*
David '
s two wives also had been taken captive ,
Ahin '
o-am of Jezreel ,
and Ab '
igail the widow of Nabal of Carmel .
*
And David was greatly distressed ;
for the people spoke of stoning him ,
because all the people were bitter in soul ,
each for his sons and daughters .
But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God .
