17 E David lhes saiu ao encontro, e lhes fallou, dizendo: Se vós vindes a mim pacificamente e para me ajudar, o meu coração se unirá comvosco; porém se é para me entregar aos meus inimigos, sem que haja deslealdade nas minhas mãos, o Deus de nossos paes o veja e o reprehenda.

19 Tambem de Manassés alguns passaram a David, quando veiu com os philisteos para a batalha contra Saul, ainda que não os ajudaram; porque os principes dos philisteos, com conselho, o despediram, dizendo: Á custa de nossas cabeças passará a Saul, seu senhor.
So David welcomed those men, and he appointed them to be leaders of his soldiers. Some men from the tribe of Manasseh also joined David when he went with the soldiers of Philistia to fight against Saul’s [army]. But David and his men did not really help the army of Philistia. After the leaders of Philistia talked [about David and his soldiers], they sent David away. They said, “If David joins his master Saul again, we will all be killed {his army will kill all of us}!”
