David Recovers His Loved Ones

⁵ The Amalekites also captured David's two wives, Ahinoam from Jezreel and Abigail, Nabal's widow, from Carmel. ⁶ Moreover David was greatly distressed because the people spoke of stoning him, for all the people were embittered, each one because of his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the Lord his God. ⁷ David told Abiathar the priest: Please bring me the priestly ephod. So Abiathar brought David the ephod.
