1 Samuel 25:11-13

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹¹ Shall I take my bread and my water and the meat that I have butchered for my shearers, and give it to men who come from I do not know where?’ ¹² So David’s young men turned away, and came back and told him all this. ¹³ David said to his men, ‘Every man strap on his sword!’ And every one of them strapped on his sword; David also strapped on his sword; and about four hundred men went up after David, while two hundred remained with the baggage.
