19 Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, |Why do you also go with us? Go back and stay with the king, for you are a foreigner and you also are an exile from your place. 20 You came only yesterday. Should I today make you wander about with us, since I go I know not where? Go back, and take your brothers with you, and may the LORD show you kindness and truth.| 21 Ittai answered the king, and said, |As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in what place my lord shall be, whether for death or for life, even there also will your servant be.| 2 Samuel 15:19-21, New Heart English Bible.
