2 Samuel 15:19-21

15:19 Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, “Why should you come with us? Go back and stay with the new¹ king, for you are a foreigner and an exile from your own country.² 15:20 It seems like you arrived just yesterday. Today should I make you wander around by going with us? I go where I must go. But as for you, go back and take your men³ with you. May genuine loyal love⁴ protect⁵ you!”

15:21 But Ittai replied to the king, “As surely as the Lord lives and as my lord the king lives, wherever my lord the king is, whether dead or alive,⁶ there I⁷ will be as well!”

²tn Heb “place.”

³tn Heb “brothers,” but see v. 22.

⁴tn Heb “loyal love and truth.” The expression is a hendiadys.
