Context Readings

David Defeats The Amalekites

20 They even brought back their livestock. David also took the sheep and cattle that the Amalekites had with them. He kept these separate from the others. Everyone agreed that these would be David's reward. 21 When David came to the two hundred men who were too exhausted to follow David, who had also been left at the brook Besor, and they went out to meet David and to meet the people who were with him, then David approached the people and greeted them. 22 Then every wicked and worthless man who had gone with David said: Since they did not go with us, they should not be given any of the loot we recovered. Each of them should take only his wife and children and leave.
