2 Samuel 15:21-29

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.

23EveryoneH3605 in the countrysideH776 was weepingH1058 loudlyH6963H1419 as allH3605 the peopleH5971 passed byH5674. And as the kingH4428 crossedH5674 the KidronH6939 ValleyH5158, allH3605 the peopleH5971 also passedH5674 towardH5921 the wayH1870 ofH853 the wildernessH4057.

24ZadokH6659 was alsoH1571 thereH2009, and allH3605 the LevitesH3881 with himH854 were carryingH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of GodH430. And they set downH3332 the arkH727 of GodH430, and AbiatharH54 offered sacrificesH59271 untilH5704 allH3605 the peopleH5971 had passedH8552H5674 out ofH4480 the cityH5892.

25Then the kingH4428 saidH559 to ZadokH6659, “ReturnH7725 the arkH727 of GodH430 to the cityH5892. IfH518 I findH4672 favorH2580 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, He will bring me backH7725 and let me seeH7200 both itH853 andH853 His dwelling place againH5116. 26But ifH518H3541 He should sayH559, ‘I do notH3808 delightH2654 in you,’ then here I amH2005; let Him doH6213 to me whateverH834 seems goodH2895 to HimH5869.”

27The kingH4428 also saidH559 toH413 ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, “Are you not a seerH7200H859?2 ReturnH7725 to the cityH5892 in peaceH7965—you with your sonH1121 AhimaazH290, and AbiatharH54 with his sonH1121 JonathanH3083.3 28SeeH7200, I willH595 waitH4102 at the fordsH5679 of the wildernessH4057 untilH5704 wordH1697 comesH935 from youH5973 to informH5046 me.”

29So ZadokH6659 and AbiatharH54 returnedH7725 the arkH727 of GodH430 to JerusalemH3389 and stayedH3427 thereH8033.
