17 David sortit au-devant d’eux, et leur adressa la parole, en disant: Si vous venez à moi dans de bonnes intentions pour me secourir, mon cœur s’unira à vous; mais si c’est pour me tromper au profit de mes ennemis, quand je ne commets aucune violence, que le Dieu de nos pères le voie et qu’il fasse justice!
18 Amasaï, l’un des principaux officiers, fut revêtu de l’esprit, et dit: Nous sommes à toi, David, et avec toi, fils d’Isaï! Paix, paix à toi, et paix à ceux qui te secourent, car ton Dieu t’a secouru! Et David les accueillit, et les plaça parmi les chefs de la troupe.
19 Des hommes de Manassé se joignirent à David, lorsqu’il alla faire la guerre à Saül avec les Philistins.
