2 Samuel 18:1-3

1And DavidH1732 numberedH6485 the peopleH5971 that were with him, and setH7760 captainsH8269 of thousandsH505 and captainsH8269 of hundredsH3967 over them.

2And DavidH1732 sentH7971 forthH3318 the peopleH5971, a thirdH7992 partH3027 underH3027 the handH3027 of JoabH3097, and a thirdH7992 partH3027 underH3027 the handH3027 of AbishaiH52 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870, Joab’sH3097 brotherH251, and a thirdH7992 partH3027 underH3027 the handH3027 of IttaiH863 the GittiteH1663. And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, I will surelyH3318 goH3318 forthH3318 with youH7971 myselfH589 also.

3But the peopleH5971 saidH559, Thou shalt notH3808 goH3318 forthH3318: for ifH518 weH3588 fleeH5127 awayH5127, they will notH3808 care for usH413; neitherH3808 ifH518 halfH2677 of usH413 dieH4191, will they care for usH413: but thou art worth tenH6235 thousandH505 of usH413: therefore nowH6258 it is betterH2896 that thou be readyH6258 to succour usH413 outH3318 of the cityH5892.
