18And they aroseH6965 out of MidianH4080, and cameH935 to ParanH6290: and they tookH3947 menH582 with them out of ParanH6290, and they cameH935 to EgyptH4714, unto PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714; which gaveH5414 him an houseH1004, and appointedH559 him victualsH3899, and gaveH5414 him landH776.

19And HadadH1908 foundH4672 greatH3966 favourH2580 in the sightH5869 of PharaohH6547, so that he gaveH5414 him to wifeH802 the sisterH269 of his own wifeH802, the sisterH269 of TahpenesH8472 the queenH1377.

20And the sisterH269 of TahpenesH8472 bareH3205 him GenubathH1592 his sonH1121, whom TahpenesH8472 weanedH1580 inH8432 Pharaoh’sH6547 houseH1004: and GenubathH1592 was in Pharaoh’sH6547 householdH1004 amongH8432 the sonsH1121 of PharaohH6547.

21And when HadadH1908 heardH8085 in EgyptH4714 that DavidH1732 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and that JoabH3097 the captainH8269 of the armyH6635 was deadH4191, HadadH1908 saidH559 to PharaohH6547, Let me departH7971, that I may goH3212 to mine own countryH776.1

22Then PharaohH6547 saidH559 unto him, But what hast thou lackedH2638 with me, that, behold, thou seekestH1245 to goH3212 to thine own countryH776? And he answeredH559, Nothing: howbeit let me goH7971 in any wiseH7971.2
