month
<02320>_,
when it had overflown
<04390> (8764)
all his banks
<01415> (8675) <01428>_;

<01144>
and Judah
<03063>
to the hold
<04679>
unto David
<01732>_.
And David
<01732>
went out
<03318> (8799)
to meet
<06440>
them, and answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, If ye be come
<0935> (8804)
peaceably
<07965>
unto me to help
<05826> (8800)
me, mine heart
<03824>
shall be knit
<03162>
unto you: but if [ye be come] to betray
<07411> (8763)
me to mine enemies
<06862>_,
seeing [there is] no
<03808>
wrong
<02555>
in mine hands
<03709>_,
the God
<0430>
of our fathers
<01>
look
<07200> (8799)
[thereon], and rebuke
<03198> (8686)
[it]. {to meet...: Heb. before them} {be knit: Heb. be one} {wrong: or, violence}
Then the spirit
<07307>
came
<03847> (8804)
upon Amasai
<06022>_,
[who was] chief
<07218>
of the captains
<07970> (8677) <07991>_,
[and he said], Thine [are we], David
<01732>_,
and on thy side, thou son
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>_:
peace
<07965>_,
peace
<07965>
[be] unto thee, and peace
<07965>
[be] to thine helpers
<05826> (8802)_;
for thy God
<0430>
helpeth
<05826> (8804)
thee. Then David
<01732>
received
<06901> (8762)
them, and made
<05414> (8799)
them captains
<07218>
of the band
<01416>_.
{came...: Heb. clothed}
And there fell
<05307> (8804)
[some] of Manasseh

<01732>_,
when he came
<0935> (8800)
with the Philistines
<06430>
against Saul
<07586>
to battle
<04421>_:
but they helped
<05826> (8804)
them not: for the lords
<05633>
of the Philistines
<06430>
upon advisement
<06098>
sent
<07971> (8765)
him away, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
He will fall
<05307> (8799)
to his master
<0113>
Saul
<07586>
to [the jeopardy of] our heads
<07218>_.
{to the...: Heb. on our heads}
As he went
<03212> (8800)

and Zilthai
<06769>_,
captains
<07218>

<0505>
that [were] of Manasseh
<04519>_.
And they helped
<05826> (8804)
David
<01732>
against the band
<01416>
[of the rovers]: for they [were] all mighty men
<01368>
of valour
<02428>_,
and were captains
<08269>
in the host
<06635>_.
{against...: or, with a band}
