18 Then all his servants passed [a]before him; (A)and all the Cherethites, all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, (B)six hundred men who had followed him from Gath, passed before the king.

19 Then the king said to (C)Ittai the Gittite, “Why are you also going with us? Return and remain with the king. For you are a foreigner and also an exile from your own place. 20 In fact, you came only yesterday. Should I make you wander up and down with us today, since I go (D)I know not where? Return, and take your brethren back. Mercy and truth be with you.”
