1 Samuel 30:1 In-Context

1 Now when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, the Amalekites had made a raid on the Negeb and on Ziklag. They had attacked Ziklag, burned it down,
2 and taken captive the women and all who were in it, both small and great; they killed none of them, but carried them off, and went their way.
3 When David and his men came to the city, they found it burned down, and their wives and sons and daughters taken captive.
4 Then David and the people who were with him raised their voices and wept, until they had no more strength to weep.
5 David's two wives also had been taken captive, Ahinoam of Jezreel, and Abigail the widow of Nabal of Carmel.
