2 Samuel 18:3-4

3But the peopleH5971 answeredH559, Thou shalt not go forthH3318: for if we fleeH5127 awayH5127, they will not careH7760H3820 for us; neither if halfH2677 of us dieH4191, will they careH7760H3820 for us: but now thou art worthH3644 tenH6235 thousandH505 of us: therefore now it is betterH2896 that thou shouldest helpH5826 us out of the cityH5892.123

4And the kingH4428 saidH559 to them, What seemethH5869 to you bestH3190 I will doH6213. And the kingH4428 stoodH5975 by the gateH8179 sideH3027, and all the peopleH5971 came outH3318 by hundredsH3967 and by thousandsH505.
