16 Baadhi ya wanaume wa Benjamini na Yuda walikuja kwenye ngome kwa Daudi.
Sotheli also men of Beniamyn and of Juda camen to the stronge hoold, whereyn Dauid dwellide.
17 Daudi alienda nje kuwasalimu na kuwahutubia: “kama mmekuja kwa amani kunisaidia, mnaweza kujiunga nami. Lakini kama mmekuja kunisaliti kwa maadui zangu, Ee Mungu wa mababu zetu awaone na kuwakemea, tangu sijafanya kosa.”
And Dauid yede out ayens hem, and seide, If ye `ben comyn pesible to me, for to helpe me, myn herte be ioyned to you; forsothe if ye setten aspies to me for myn aduersaries, sithen Y haue not wickidnesse in the hondis, God of our fadris se and deme.
18 Kisha roho ikaja juu ya Amasai, ambaye alikuwa kiongozi wa wale thelathini. Amasai alisema, “Sisi ni wako, Daudi. Sisi tupo upande wako, mwana wa Yesse. na amani iwe juu ya yeyote atakaye kusaidia. Kuwa Mungu wako anakusaidia.” Kisha Daudi akawapokea na kuwafanya wakuu wa watu wake.

19 Baadhi kutoka kwa Manase pia wakamwendea Daudi alipokuja na Wafilisti dhidi ya Sauli katika pambano. Lakini hawakuwasaidia Wafilisti kwasababu mabwana wa Wafilisti walishauriana na wakamfukuza Daudi. Walisema, “Atamwendea Bwana wake Sauli na kuhatarisha maisha yetu.”
Forsothe men of Manasses fledden ouer to Dauid, whanne he cam with Filisteis to fiyte ayens Saul, and he fauyte not with hem, for after that the princes of Filisteis hadden take counsel, thei senten hym ayen, and seiden, With perel of oure heed he schal turne ayen to Saul his lord.

These men yauen help to Dauid ayens theues; for alle weren strongeste men, and thei weren maad prynces in the oost.
22 Siku hadi siku, wanaume walikuja kwa Daudi kumsaidia, mpaka wakawa jeshi kubwa, kama jeshi la Mungu.
