10:015:015 And the king’s servants said unto the king, Behold, thy
           servants are ready to do whatsoever my lord the king shall
           appoint.

10:015:016 And the king went forth, and all his household after him.  And
           the king left ten women, which were concubines, to keep the
           house.

10:015:017 And the king went forth, and all the people after him, and
           tarried in a place that was far off.

10:015:018 And all his servants passed on beside him; and all the
           Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six
           hundred men which came after him from Gath, passed on before
           the king.

10:015:019 Then said the king to Ittai the Gittite, Wherefore goest thou
           also with us? return to thy place, and abide with the king: 
           for thou art a stranger, and also an exile.

10:015:020 Whereas thou camest but yesterday, should I this day make thee
           go up and down with us? seeing I go whither I may, return
           thou, and take back thy brethren:  mercy and truth be with
           thee.

10:015:021 And Ittai answered the king, and said, As the lord liveth, and
           as my lord the king liveth, surely in what place my lord the
           king shall be, whether in death or life, even there also will
           thy servant be.

10:015:022 And David said to Ittai, Go and pass over.  And Ittai the
           Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones
           that were with him.

10:015:023 And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people
           passed over:  the king also himself passed over the brook
           Kidron, and all the people passed over, toward the way of the
           wilderness.

10:015:024 And lo Zadok also, and all the Levites were with him, bearing
           the ark of the covenant of God:  and they set down the ark of
           God; and Abiathar went up, until all the people had done
           passing out of the city.

10:015:025 And the king said unto Zadok, Carry back the ark of God into
           the city:  if I shall find favour in the eyes of the lord, he
           will bring me again, and shew me both it, and his habitation: 

10:015:026 But if he thus say, I have no delight in thee; behold, here am
           I, let him do to me as seemeth good unto him.

10:015:027 The king said also unto Zadok the priest, Art not thou a seer?
           return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you,
           Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.

10:015:028 See, I will tarry in the plain of the wilderness, until there
           come word from you to certify me.

10:015:029 Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried the ark of God again to
           Jerusalem:  and they tarried there.
