He said that everyone should share the spoil equally—both those who went into battle and those who stayed with the supplies (1 Samuel 30:23-24 ). David reminded them that all their success and the spoil came from the Lord . He was fair to the tired men, explaining that they were not lazy but simply too weak to go on.
