1 Samuel 30:22-24

Living Bible

²² But some of the ruffians among David’s men declared, “They didn’t go with us, so they can’t have any of the loot. Give them their wives and their children and tell them to be gone.”

²³ But David said, “No, my brothers! The Lord has kept us safe and helped us defeat the enemy. ²⁴ Do you think that anyone will listen to you when you talk like this? We share and share alike—those who go to battle and those who guard the equipment.”
