11 The men with David found an Egyptian out in the country and brought him to David. They gave him some food and water,
12 some dried figs, and two bunches of raisins. After he had eaten, his strength returned; he had not had anything to eat or drink for three full days.
13 David asked him, “Who is your master, and where are you from?”“I am an Egyptian, the slave of an Amalekite,” he answered. “My master left me behind three days ago because I was ill.
14 We had raided the territory of the Cherethites in the southern part of Judah and the territory of the clan of Caleb, and we burnt down Ziklag.”
15 “Will you lead me to those raiders?” David asked him.He answered, “I will if you promise me in God's name that you will not kill me or hand me over to my master.”
16 And he led David to them.The raiders were scattered all over the place, eating, drinking, and celebrating because of the enormous amount of loot they had captured from Philistia and Judah.
17 At dawn the next day David attacked them and fought until evening. Except for 400 young men who mounted camels and got away, none of them escaped.
