1 Samuel 30:20-22

Lexham English Bible

²⁰ And David took all of the sheep,^[a] and the cattle they drove along in front of that livestock, and they said, “This is David’s plunder.”

²¹ Then David came to the two hundred men who had been too exhausted to follow^[b] David; they had left them behind at the Wadi^[c] Besor. They went out to meet David and to meet the people who were with him. David came near with the people and asked them how they were doing.^{[d] 22} Then all the corrupt and useless men among the men who went with David reacted and said, “Because they did not go with us, we will not give them anything from the plunder which we recovered, except^[e] each man may take his own wife and children. They must take them along and go!”
