David
GenerosityComfortExhaustion

27 Nå, da David kom til Mahanaim, Shobi, sønn av Nahasj fra Rabba av ammonittene, Makir, sønn av Ammiel fra Lo-Debar, og Barsillai, gileaditten fra Rogelim,

28 brakte senger, fat, leirkar, hvete, bygg, mel, ristet korn, bønner, linser, ristet frø,

honning, ostemasse, sauer og ost fra buskapen, til David og folket som var med ham for å spise; for de sa: "Folket er sultne og trette og tørste i ørkenen."
