But his servants, together with the woman, compelled him; and he hearkened unto their voice. So he arose from the earth, and sat upon the bed. 1SA_28:24 And the woman had a fat calf in the house; and she hasted, and killed it, and took flour, and kneaded [it], and did bake unleavened bread thereof: 1SA_28:25 And she brought [it] before Saul, and before his servants; and they did eat. Then they rose up, and went away that night. 1SA_29:1 Now the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek: and the Israelites pitched by a fountain which [is] in Jezreel. 1SA_29:2 And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and by thousands: but David and his men passed on in the rereward with Achish. 1SA_29:3 Then said the princes of the Philistines, What [do] these Hebrews [here]? And Achish said unto the princes of the Philistines, [Is] not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, which hath been with me these days, or these years, and I have found no fault in him since he fell [unto me] unto this day? 1SA_29:4 And the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him; and the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Make this fellow return, that he may go again to his place which thou hast appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he be an adversary to us: for wherewith should he reconcile himself unto his master? [should it] not [be] with the heads of these men? 1SA_29:5 [Is] not this David, of whom they sang one to another in dances, saying, Saul slew his thousands, and David his ten thousands? 1SA_29:6 Then Achish called David, and said unto him, Surely, [as] the LORD liveth, thou hast been upright, and thy going out and thy coming in with me in the host [is] good in my sight: for I have not found evil in thee since the day of thy coming unto me unto this day: nevertheless the lords favour thee not. 1SA_29:7 Wherefore now return, and go in peace, that thou displease not the lords of the Philistines. 1SA_29:8 And David said unto Achish, But what have I done? and what hast thou found in thy servant so long as I have been with thee unto this day, that I may not go fight against the enemies of my lord the king? 1SA_29:9 And Achish answered and said to David, I know that thou [art] good in my sight, as an angel of God: notwithstanding the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us to the battle. 1SA_29:10 Wherefore now rise up early in the morning with thy master's servants that are come with thee: and as soon as ye be up early in the morning, and have light, depart. 1SA_29:11 So David and his men rose up early to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel. 1SA_30:1 And it came to pass, when David and his men were come to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites had invaded the south, and Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag, and burned it with fire; 1SA_30:2 And had taken the women captives, that [were] therein: they slew not any, either great or small, but carried [them] away, and went on their way. 1SA_30:3 So David and his men came to the city, and, behold, [it was] burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives. 1SA_30:4 Then David and the people that [were] with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep. 1SA_30:5 And David's two wives were taken captives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite. 1SA_30:6 And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God. 1SA_30:7 And David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech's son, I pray thee, bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought thither the ephod to David. 1SA_30:8 And David inquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake [them], and without fail recover [all]. 1SA_30:9 So David went, he and the six hundred men that [were] with him, and came to the brook Besor, where those that were left behind stayed. 1SA_30:10 But David pursued, he and four hundred men: for two hundred abode behind, which were so faint that they could not go over the brook Besor. 1SA_30:11 And they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David, and gave him bread, and he did eat; and they made him drink water; 1SA_30:12 And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and two clusters of raisins: and when he had eaten, his spirit came again to him: for he had eaten no bread, nor drunk [any] water, three days and three nights. 1SA_30:13 And David said unto him, To whom [belongest] thou? and whence [art] thou? And he said, I [am] a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days ago I fell sick. 1SA_30:14 We made an invasion [upon] the south of the Cherethites, and upon [the coast] which [belongeth] to Judah, and upon the south of Caleb; and we burned Ziklag with fire. 1SA_30:15 And David said to him, Canst thou bring me down to this company? And he said, Swear unto me by God, that thou wilt neither kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee down to this company. 1SA_30:16 And when he had brought him down, behold, [they were] spread abroad upon all the earth, eating and drinking, and dancing, because of all the great spoil that they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah. 1SA_30:17 And David smote them from the twilight even unto the evening of the next day: and there escaped not a man of them, save four hundred young men, which rode upon camels, and fled. 1SA_30:18 And David recovered all that the Amalekites had carried away: and David rescued his two wives. 1SA_30:19 And there was nothing lacking to them, neither small nor great, neither sons nor daughters, neither spoil, nor any [thing] that they had taken to them: David recovered all. 1SA_30:20 And David took all the flocks and the herds, [which] they drave before those [other] cattle, and said, This [is] David's spoil. 1SA_30:21 And David came to the two hundred men, which were so faint that they could not follow David, whom they had made also to abide at the brook Besor: and they went forth to meet David, and to meet the people that [were] with him: and when David came near to the people, he saluted them. 1SA_30:22 Then answered all the wicked men and [men] of Belial, of those that went with David, and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them [ought] of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, that they may lead [them] away, and depart. 1SA_30:23 Then said David, Ye shall not do so, my brethren, with that which the LORD hath given us, who hath preserved us, and delivered the company that came against us into our hand. 1SA_30:24 For who will hearken unto you in this matter? but as his part [is] that goeth down to the battle, so [shall] his part [be] that tarrieth by the stuff: they shall part alike. 1SA_30:25 And it was [so] from that day forward, that he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel unto this day. 1SA_30:26 And when David came to Ziklag, he sent of the spoil unto the elders of Judah, [even] to his friends, saying, Behold a present for you of the spoil of the enemies of the LORD; 1SA_30:27 To [them] which [were] in Bethel, and to [them] which [were] in south Ramoth, and to [them] which [were] in Jattir, 1SA_30:28 And to [them] which [were] in Aroer, and to [them] which [were] in Siphmoth, and to [them] which [were] in Eshtemoa, 1SA_30:29 And to [them] which [were] in Rachal, and to [them] which [were] in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, and to [them] which [were] in the cities of the Kenites, JOH_6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. JOH_6:30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work? JOH_6:31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. JOH_6:32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. JOH_6:33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. JOH_6:34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. JOH_6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. JOH_6:36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not. JOH_6:37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. JOH_6:38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. JOH_6:39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. JOH_6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. JOH_6:41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. JOH_6:42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven? JOH_6:43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves. JOH_6:44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. JOH_6:45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me. JOH_6:46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. JOH_6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. JOH_6:48 I am that bread of life. JOH_6:49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. JOH_6:50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. JOH_6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. JOH_6:52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us [his] flesh to eat? PSA_64:7 But God shall shoot at them [with] an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded. PSA_64:8 So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away. PSA_64:9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing. PSA_64:10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory. PSA_65:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm [and] Song of David. Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed. PSA_65:2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come. PSA_65:3 Iniquities prevail against me: [as for] our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away. PRO_14:3 In the mouth of the foolish [is] a rod of pride: but the lips of the wise shall preserve them. PRO_14:4 Where no oxen [are], the crib [is] clean: but much increase [is] by the strength of the ox. MARJ_10:21 One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me. MARJ_10:23 How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! MARJ_10:24 Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God! MARJ_10:25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. MARJ_10:27 With men [it is] impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
