2 Samuel 18:3-4
3But the people said, “1You should not go out; for if we indeed flee, they will not care about us; even if half of us die, they will not care about us. But 2you are worth ten thousand of us; therefore now it is better that you be ready to help us from the city.”
4Then the king said to them, “Whatever seems best to you I will do.” So 3the king stood beside the gate, and all the people went out by hundreds and thousands.
