15 And the king's servants said to the king, Behold, thy servants [are ready to do] whatever my lord the king shall appoint.
16 And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women [who were] concubines to keep the house.
17 And the king went forth, and all the people after him, and tarried in a place that was far off.
18 And all his servants passed on by his side; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
19 Then said the king to Ittai the Gittite, Why goest thou also with us? return to thy place, and abide with the king; for thou [art] a stranger, and also an exile.
