And David smote them from the twilight even unto the evening of the next day: and there escaped not a man of them, save four hundred young men, which rode upon camels, and fled.

Verse 17 is found in chapter 30 of 1 Samuel. David finds the Amalekite army celebrating after the raid. The attack produces a complete victory, and David recovers everything that had been taken, including the families and possessions. The recovery restores David’s position before his men. The episode also connects with the earlier conflict involving Amalek and shows David successfully confronting a threat that Saul had failed to resolve obediently.
