1 Samuel 30:7-9

New International Version - UK

⁷ Then David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelek, ‘Bring me the ephod.’ Abiathar brought it to him, ⁸ and David enquired of the Lord, ‘Shall I pursue this raiding party? Will I overtake them?’

‘Pursue them,’ he answered. ‘You will certainly overtake them and succeed in the rescue.’

⁹ David and the six hundred men with him came to the Besor Valley, where some stayed behind.
