2 Samuel 15:18-22
18and allH3605 his servantsH5650 marchedH5674 pastH5921 himH3027—allH3605 the CherethitesH3774 andH3605 PelethitesH6432, andH3605 sixH8337 hundredH3967 GittitesH1663H376 whoH834 had followedH935 himH7272 from GathH1661.
19Then the kingH4428 saidH559 toH413 IttaiH863 the GittiteH1663, “WhyH4100 should youH859 alsoH1571 goH1980 with usH854? Go backH7725 and stayH3427 withH5973 the new kingH4428, sinceH3588 you areH859 both a foreignerH5237 andH1571 an exileH1540H859 from your homelandH4725. 20In fact, you arrivedH935 only yesterdayH8543; should I make youH5128 wander aroundH1980 with usH5973 todayH3117 while IH589 do not knowH1980 whereH834 IH589 am goingH1980? Go backH7725 and takeH7725 your brothersH251 with youH5973. May the LORD show you loving devotionH2617 and faithfulnessH571.1”
21But IttaiH863 answeredH6030 the kingH4428, “As surely as the LORDH3068 livesH2416, and as my lordH113 the kingH4428H3588 livesH2416, whereverH4725 my lordH113 the kingH4428 may beH1961, whetherH518 it means lifeH2416H3588H8033 orH518 deathH4194, there willH8033 your servantH5650 beH1961!”
22“March on thenH5674,” saidH559 DavidH1732 toH413 IttaiH863H1980. So IttaiH863 the GittiteH1663 marched pastH5674 with allH3605 his menH582 and allH3605 the little onesH2945 whoH834 were with himH854.
