2 Samuel 15:13-20
13And there cameH935 oneH376 to DavidH1732 who reported sayingH559, The heartsH3820 of the menH376 of IsraelH3478 are after AbsalomH53.
14And DavidH1732 saidH559 to all his servantsH5650 that were with him at JerusalemH3389, RiseH6965 up and let us fleeH1272; for we shall not [else] escapeH6413 from AbsalomH53. BeH1961 quick to depart, lestH6435 he overtakeH5381 us quicklyH4116, and bringH4116 evilH7451 upon us, and smite the cityH5892 with the edge of the swordH2719.
15And the king's servantsH5650 saidH559 to the kingH4428, Behold, thy servantsH5650 [will do] whatever my lordH113 the kingH4428 shall chooseH977.
16And the kingH4428 wentH3318 forthH3318, and all his householdH1004 after him, and the kingH4428 left tenH6235 womenH802, concubinesH6370, to keepH8104 the houseH1004.
17And the kingH4428 wentH3318 forthH3318, and all the peopleH5971 after him, and stayed at the remote house.
18And all his servantsH5650 passedH5674 on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 that cameH935 after him from GathH1661, passedH5674 over before the kingH4428.
19And the kingH4428 saidH559 to IttaiH863 the GittiteH1663, WhyH4100 dost thou alsoH1571 goH7725 with us? returnH7725 to thy placeH4725, and abide with the kingH4428; for thou art a foreignerH5237, and besides, thou hast emigrated to the placeH4725 where thou [dwellest].
20Thou didst comeH935 yesterdayH8543, and should I this dayH3117 make thee goH1980 up and down with us, seeing I goH1980 whither I can? ReturnH7725 and take backH7725 thy brethren. Mercy and truthH571 be with thee!
