And David went out to meet them, and said: If you are come peaceably to me to help me, let my heart be joined to you: but if you plot against me for my enemies whereas I have no iniquity in my hands, let the God of our fathers see, and judge.

But the spirit came upon Amasai the chief among thirty, and he said: We are thine, O David, and for thee, O son of Isai: peace, peace be to thee, and peace to thy helpers. For thy God helpeth thee. So David received them, and made them captains of the band.

And there were some of Manasses that went over to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to fight: but he did not fight with them: because the lords of the Philistines taking counsel sent him back, saying: With the danger of our heads he will return to his master Saul.
20 Pa inge inen mwet mweun lun Manasseh su welulang David ke pacl el folok ah: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, ac Zillethai. Kais sie mwet inge elos tuh captain fin mwet mweun sie tausin in acn Manasseh.
