Holman Christian Standard Bible
“ You must not go! ” the people pleaded. “ If we have to flee , they will not pay any attention to us. Even if half of us die, they will not pay any attention to us because you are worth 10,000 of us. Therefore , it is better if you support us from the city.”

New American Standard Bible
But the people said, "You should not go out; for if we indeed flee, they will not care about us; even if half of us die, they will not care about us. But you are worth ten thousand of us; therefore now it is better that you [be ready] to help us from the city."

King James Bible
But the people answered, Thou shalt not go forth: for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us: but now [thou art] worth ten thousand of us: therefore now [it is] better that thou succour {08675;05826:08687} us out of the city. International Standard Version
"No way!" his army responded. "If we have to retreat from the battle, Absalom's men won't care about us. Even if half of us die, they won't care about us. But you are worth 10,000 of us. The best thing you can do for us is to remain in the city."

American Standard Version
But the people said, Thou shalt not go forth: for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us: but thou art worth ten thousand of us; therefore now it is better that thou be ready to succor us out of the city.

Young's Literal Translation
And the people say, 'Thou dost not go out, for if we utterly flee, they do not set their heart upon us; and if half of us die, they do not set their heart unto us -- for now like us are ten thousand; and now, better that thou be to us from the city for an helper.'2 Samuel 18:3 • 2 Samuel 18:3 NIV • 2 Samuel 18:3 NLT • 2 Samuel 18:3 ESV • 2 Samuel 18:3 NASB • 2 Samuel 18:3 KJV • 2 Samuel 18:3 Commentaries • 2 Samuel 18:3 Bible Apps • 2 Samuel 18:3 Biblia Paralela • 2 Samuel 18:3 Chinese Bible • 2 Samuel 18:3 French Bible • 2 Samuel 18:3 German Bible
