12 They gave him some dried figs and some raisins. Then he became stronger, because he had not eaten any food or drunk any water for three days.
13 David asked the man, ‘Who is your master? Where do you come from?’
The young man answered, ‘I am an Egyptian, the slave of an Amalekite man. My master left me here three days ago because I was ill. 14 We had attacked the south part of Judah, where the Kerethites live.[a] We also attacked the land where the people of Caleb's clan live. We destroyed Ziklag with fire too.’
