But David pursued, he and four hundred men, for atwo hundred who were too exhausted to cross the brook Besor remained behind.Now they found an Egyptian in the field and brought him to David, and gave him bread and he ate, and they provided him water to drink.They gave him a piece of fig cake and two clusters of raisins, and he ate; athen his spirit revived. For he had not eaten bread or drunk water for three days and three nights.David said to him, "To whom do you belong? And where are you from?" And he said, "I am a young man of Egypt, a servant of an Amalekite; and my master left me behind when I fell sick three days ago."We made a raid on athe Negev of the Cherethites, and on that which belongs to Judah, and on bthe Negev of Caleb, and cwe burned Ziklag with fire."Then David said to him, "Will you bring me down to this band?" And he said, "Swear to me by God that you will not kill me or deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring you down to this band."When he had brought him down, behold, they were spread over all the land, aeating and drinking and dancing because of ball the great spoil that they had taken from the land of the Philistines and from the land of Judah.David slaughtered them afrom the twilight until the evening of the next day; and not a man of them escaped, except four hundred young men who rode on bcamels and fled.So David arecovered all that the Amalekites had taken, and rescued his two wives.But nothing of theirs was missing, whether small or great, sons or daughters, spoil or anything that they had taken for themselves; aDavid brought it all back.Then it happened when David and his men came to aZiklag on the third day, that bthe Amalekites had made a raid on the Negev and on cZiklag, and had overthrown Ziklag and burned it with fire;So David had captured all the sheep and the cattle which the people drove ahead of the other livestock, and they said, "aThis is David's spoil."and they took captive the women and all who were in it, both small and great, awithout killing anyone, and carried them off and went their way.When David and his men came to the city, behold, it was burned with fire, and their wives and their sons and their daughters had been taken captive.Then David and the people who were with him alifted their voices and wept until there was no strength in them to weep.Now aDavid's two wives had been taken captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess and Abigail the widow of Nabal the Carmelite.Moreover David was greatly distressed because athe people spoke of stoning him, for all the people were embittered, each one because of his sons and his daughters. But bDavid strengthened himself in the Lord his God.Then aDavid said to bAbiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, "Please bring me the ephod." So Abiathar brought the ephod to David.aDavid inquired of the Lord, saying, "bShall I pursue this band? Shall I overtake them?" And He said to him, "Pursue, for you will surely overtake them, cand you will surely rescue all."So David went, ahe and the six hundred men who were with him, and came to the brook Besor, where those left behind remained.

But he answered, "I did not call, my son, lie down again."aNow Samuel did not yet know the Lord, nor had the word of the Lord yet been revealed to him.So the Lord called Samuel again for the third time. And he arose and went to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me." Then Eli discerned that the Lord was calling the boy.And Eli said to Samuel, "Go lie down, and it shall be if He calls you, that you shall say, 'Speak, Lord, for Your servant is listening.'"

Moses said to the Lord, "See, you say to me, 'Bring up this people,' but you have not let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, 'I know you by name, and you have also found favor in my sight.'Now therefore, if I have found favor in your sight, please show me now your ways, that I may know you in order to find favor in your sight. Consider too that this nation is your people."And he said, "My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest."And he said to him, "If your presence will not go with me, do not bring us up from here.For how shall it be known that I have found favor in your sight, I and your people? Is it not in your going with us, so that we are distinct, I and your people, from every other people on the face of the earth?"And the Lord said to Moses, "This very thing that you have spoken I will do, for you have found favor in my sight, and I know you by name."Moses said, "Please show me your glory."And he said, "I will make all my goodness pass before you and will proclaim before you my name 'The Lord.' And I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.But," he said, "you cannot see my face, for man shall not see me and live."And the Lord said, "Behold, there is a place by me where you shall stand on the rock,and while my glory passes by I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and I will cover you with my hand until I have passed by.Then I will take away my hand, and you shall see my back, but my face shall not be seen."

One day as Jesus was walking along the shore of the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers—Simon, also called Peter, and Andrew—throwing a net into the water, for they fished for a living. Jesus called out to them, “Come, follow me, and I will show you how to fish for people!” And they left their nets at once and followed him. A little farther up the shore he saw two other brothers, James and John, sitting in a boat with their father, Zebedee, repairing their nets. And he called them to come, too. They immediately followed him, leaving the boat and their father behind.
