2 Samuel 15:21-29

21And IttaiH863 answered the kingH4428, and saidH559, As Jehovah liveth, and as my lord the kingH4428 liveth, surely in what placeH4725 my lord the kingH4428 shall beH1961, whether for deathH4194 or for lifeH2416, even there also will thy servantH5650 beH1961. 22And DavidH1732 saidH559 to IttaiH863, Go and passH5674 over. And IttaiH863 the GittiteH1663 passedH5674 over, and all his menH376, and all the littleH2945 onesH2945 that were with him. 23And all the country weptH1058 with a loud voiceH6963, and all the peopleH5971 passedH5674 over: the kingH4428 also himself passedH5674 over the brook KidronH6939, and all the peopleH5971 passedH5674 over, toward the wayH1870 of the wildernessH4057.

24And, lo, ZadokH6659 alsoH1571cameH5927, and all the LevitesH3881 with him, bearingH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of GodH430; and they set down the arkH727 of GodH430; and AbiatharH54 wentH5927 up, until all the peopleH5971 had done passingH5674 out of the cityH5892. 25And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto ZadokH6659, Carry backH7725 the arkH727 of GodH430 into the cityH5892: if I shall findH4672 favorH2580 in the eyesH5869 of Jehovah, he will bringH7725 me again, and showH7200 me both it, and his habitation: 26but if he sayH559 thusH3541, I have no delightH2654 in thee; behold, here am I, let him do to me as seemeth goodH2896 unto him. 27The kingH4428 saidH559 also unto ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, Art thou not a seer? returnH7725 into the cityH5892 in peaceH7965, and your twoH8147 sonsH1121 with you, AhimaazH290 thy sonH1121, and JonathanH3083 the sonH1121 of AbiatharH54. 28SeeH7200, I will tarry at the fords of the wildernessH4057, until there comeH935 wordH1697 from you to certify me. 29ZadokH6659 therefore and AbiatharH54 carried the arkH727 of GodH430 again to JerusalemH3389: and they abode there.
