1 Samuel 30:6-8
English Standard Version
6 And David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke (A)of stoning him, because all the people were bitter in soul,[a] each for his sons and daughters. But David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.
7 (B)And David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, “Bring me the ephod.” So Abiathar brought the ephod to David. 8 (C)And David inquired of the Lord, “Shall I pursue after this (D)band? Shall I overtake them?” He answered him, “Pursue, for you shall surely overtake (E)and shall surely rescue.”
