And
David went
out to
meet them, and
answered and
said unto them, If ye be
come peaceably unto me to
help me, mine
heart shall be
knit unto you: but if ye be come to
betray me to mine
enemies, seeing there is
no wrong in mine
hands, the
God of our
fathers look thereon, and
rebuke it.

Then the
spirit came upon
Amasai, who was
chief of the
captains * , and he said, Thine are we,
David, and on thy side, thou
son of
Jesse: peace, peace be unto thee, and
peace be to thine
helpers ; for thy
God helpeth thee. Then
David received them, and
made them
captains of the
band.

And there
fell some of
Manasseh to
David, when he
came with the
Philistines against
Saul to
battle: but they
helped them not: for the
lords of the
Philistines upon
advisement sent him away,
saying , He will
fall to his
master Saul to the jeopardy of our
heads.

And they
helped David against the
band of the rovers: for they were all mighty
men of
valour, and were
captains in the
host.

For at that
time day by

came to

And these are the
numbers of the
bands that were ready
armed to the
war, and
came to
David to
Hebron, to
turn the
kingdom of
Saul to him, according to the
word of the
LORD.
