1 Samuel 30:15-17

Common English Bible

¹⁵ “Can you guide me to this raiding party?” David asked him.

“Make a pledge to me by God that you won’t kill me or hand me over to my master,” the boy said, “and I will guide you to the raiding party.”

¹⁶ So the boy led David to them, and he found them scattered all over the countryside, eating, drinking, and celebrating over the large amount of plunder they had taken from Philistine and Judean territory.

¹⁷ David attacked them from twilight until evening of the next day. He killed them all.^[a] No one escaped except four hundred young men who got on camels and fled.
