1 Samuel 30:6-8

Living Bible

⁶ David was seriously worried, for in their bitter grief for their children, his men began talking of killing him. But David took strength from the Lord.

⁷ Then he said to Abiathar the priest, “Bring me the ephod!” So Abiathar brought it.

⁸ David asked the Lord, “Shall I chase them? Will I catch them?”

And the Lord told him, “Yes, go after them; you will recover everything that was taken from you!”
