14We raided the Negev of the Cherethites, the territory of Judah, and the Negev of Caleb, and we burned down Ziklag."

16So he led David down, and there were the Amalekites spread out over all the land, eating, drinking, and celebrating the great amount of plunder they had taken from the land of the Philistines and the land of Judah.
“and so when he had brought him down there they were spread out all over the land eating and drinking and dancing because of all The great spoil which they had taken from the land of the Philistines and from the land of Judah.”
17And David struck them down from twilight until the evening of the next day. Not a man escaped, except four hundred young men who fled, riding off on camels.
“David attacked them from twilight until the evening of the next Day, not a man of them escaped except 400 young men who rode on camels and fled.”
“David smote them from the twilight. Even to the evening of the next day and there escaped not a man of them save 400 young men which rode upon camels and fled.”
18So David recovered everything the Amalekites had taken, including his two wives.
“And David recovered all that the Amalekites had carried away. And David rescued his two wives.”
“So David recovered all that the Amalekites had carried away and David rescued his two wives”
19Nothing was missing, young or old, son or daughter, or any of the plunder the Amalekites had taken. David brought everything back.
“and Nothing of theirs was lacking either small or great sons or daughters spoiler anything which they had taken from them. David recovered all.”
20And he recovered all the flocks and herds, which his men drove ahead of the other livestock, calling out, "This is David's plunder!"
“Then David took all the flocks and herds which they had driven before those other livestock and said This is David's spoil.”
“And David took all the flocks and the herds which they drove before them. All the other cattle and said, this is David's spoil.”
21When David came to the two hundred men who had been too exhausted to follow him from the Brook of Besor, they came out to meet him and the troops with him. As David approached the men, he greeted them,
“Now David came to the 200 men who had been so weary that they could not follow David. Whom they also had made to stay at the Brook Beesor. So they went out to meet David and to meet the people were with him and when David came…”
“And David came to the two hundred men which were so faint that they could not follow David, whom they had made also to abide at the brook of Bethsa, and they went forth to meet David and to meet the people that were with him. And…”
“And David came to the 200 men, which were so faint that they could not follow David, who they had made also to abide by the brook Besor. And they went forth to meet David and to meet the people that were with him. And when David…”
22but all the wicked and worthless men among those who had gone with David said, "Because they did not go with us, we will not share with them the plunder we recovered, except for each man's wife and children. They may take them and go."
“Then all the wicked and worthless men of those who went with David answered and said because they did not go with us. We will not give them any of the spoil which we've recovered except for every man's wife and children that they…”
“Then answered all the wicked men and men of Belial, of those that went with David, and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them anything of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his…”
23But David said, "My brothers, you must not do this with what the LORD has given us. He has protected us and delivered into our hands the raiders who came against us.
“But David said my brethren you shall not do so with what the Lord has given us who has preserved us and Delivered into our hand the troop that came against us”
“Then said David, You shall not do so, my brethren, with that which the Lord has given us, who has preserved us and delivered the company that came against us into our land,”
24Who will listen to your proposal? The share of the one who went to battle will match the share of the one who stayed with the supplies. They will share alike."
“For who will hearken unto you in this matter? But as his part is that goeth down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff, and they shall part alike.”
“for who will heed you in this matter? But as his part is who goes down to the battle so shall his part be who stays by the supplies they shall share alike”
“For who will hearken unto you in this matter? But as his part is that goeth down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff they shall part alike.”
25And so it has been from that day forward. David established this statute as an ordinance for Israel to this very day.
“So it was from that day forward. He made it a statute and ordinance for Israel to this day.”
26When David arrived in Ziklag, he sent some of the plunder to his friends, the elders of Judah, saying, "Here is a gift for you from the plunder of the LORD's enemies."
“when David came to Ziklag He sent some of the spoil to the elders of Judah to his friends saying here is a present for you from the spoil of the enemies of the Lord.”
27He sent gifts to those in Bethel, Ramoth Negev, and Jattir;
