19 The king asked Ittai from Gath, |Why should you go with us? Go back, and stay with King Absalom. You are a foreigner, an exile from your homeland. 20 You came to us just yesterday. Should I make you wander around with me when I don't even know where I'm going? Go back, and take your countrymen with you. [May the LORD] always show you kindness.| 21 But Ittai answered the king, |I solemnly swear, as the LORD and the king live: Wherever you are, whether you're dead or alive, I'll be there.| 2 Samuel 15:19-21, God's Word Translation.
