And David went out to them, and said to them, If you have come in peace to give me help, my heart will be united with yours; but if you have come to give me up to those who would take my life, though my hands are clean from wrongdoing, then may the God of our fathers see it and give you punishment.

And some of the men of Manasseh came over to David, when he went with the Philistines to the war against Saul, but he gave them no help: for the lords of the Philistines, after discussion, sent him away, saying, He will go back to his master Saul, at the price of our lives.
20 Joka Manase mane odok ir Daudi koa ir Saulo mane odhi Ziklag ne gin: Adna, Jozabad, Jediael, Mikael, Jozabad, Elihu kod Zilethai mane jotend jolweny alufu achiel kuom joka Manase moro ka moro.
