When David reached Ziklag, he sent some of the plunder to the elders of Judah, who were his friends, saying,“ Here is a gift for you from the plunder of the Lord’s enemies.”

When David came to Ziklag, he sent part of the spoil to his friends, the elders of Judah, saying,“ Here is a present for you from the spoil of the enemies of the Lord.”

When he arrived at Ziklag, David sent part of the plunder to the elders of Judah, who were his friends.“ Here is a present for you, taken from the Lord’s enemies,” he said.

When David came to 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.”

Now when David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the spoils to the elders of Judah, to his friends, saying,“ Behold, a gift for you from the spoils of the enemies of the Lord:

Now 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”—

And when David came to Ziklag, he sent of the spoil unto the elders of Judah, even to his friends, saying, Behold, a present for you of the spoil of the enemies of Jehovah:

When David came to 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.”

And when David came to Ziklag, he sent of the spoil unto the elders of Judah,[ even] to his friends, saying, Behold a present for you of the spoil of the enemies of the LORD;

I’ve brought a gift for you. Give it to the men who follow you.

Let those who are happy when my name is cleared shout with joy and gladness. Let them always say,“ May the Lord be honored. He is pleased when everything goes well with the one who serves him.”

Please accept the present that was brought to you. God has given me so much. I have everything I need.” Jacob wouldn’t give in. So Esau accepted it.

So I thought I should try to get the brothers to visit you ahead of time. They will finish the plans for the large gift you had promised. Then it will be ready as a gift freely given. It will not be given by force.

A gift opens the door and helps the giver meet important people.In court, the first one to speak seems right. Then someone else comes forward and questions him.Casting lots will put a stop to arguing. It will keep the strongest enemies apart.A broken friendship is harder to handle than a city with high walls around it. And arguing is like the locked gates of a mighty city.Because of what they say a person can fill their stomach. What their words produce can satisfy them.Your tongue has the power of life and death. Those who love to talk will eat the fruit of their words.The one who finds a wife finds what is good. He receives favor from the Lord.Poor people beg for mercy. But rich people answer in a mean way.A person with unfaithful friends soon comes to ruin. But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

When he went up to his place on high, he took many prisoners. He received gifts from people, even from those who refused to obey him. The Lord God went up to live on Mount Zion.

Naaman and all his attendants went back to the man of God. Naaman stood in front of Elisha. Naaman said,“ Now I know that there is no God anywhere in the whole world except in Israel. So please accept a gift from me.”

But those who are noble make noble plans. And by doing noble things they succeed.

Eliel was seventh.Johanan was eighth. Elzabad was ninth.Jeremiah was tenth. And Makbannai was eleventh.All these men of Gad were army commanders. The least important of them was equal to 100 men.

They chased away everyone who lived in the valleys. They chased them away from the east and west sides of the river.
