David and the Amalekites
30 David and his men arrived at Ziklag on the third day.
In the meantime the Amalekites had raided the Negev and Ziklag. They had attacked Ziklag and burned it down. 2 They had taken the women captive, along with everyone who was there, from the least to the greatest.[a] They did not kill anyone, but they carried them off and went on their way.
3 So when David and his men came to the city, they saw that it had been burned and that their wives, their sons, and their daughters had been taken captive.
