Return and take back thy brethren with thee, and may Yahweh deal with thee in lovingkindness and faithfulness. But Ittai answered the king, and said, - By the life of Yahweh, and by the life of my lord the king, surely, in whatsoever place, my lord the king, may be, whether for death or for life, there will, thy servant, be.
