2 Samuel 15:19-21

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁹ The king said to Ittai from Gath, “Why are you also going with us? You are a foreigner; this is not your homeland. Go back and stay with the new king. ²⁰ You came to join me only yesterday. You don’t need to wander from place to place with me. Take your brothers and go back. Go with my faithful, loving kindness.”

²¹ But Ittai answered the king, “As the Lord lives, and as long as you live, I will stay with you, in life or death!”
