1 Davi, pois, revistou o povo que tinha consigo, e pôs sobre eles comandantes de mil e comandantes de cem.
2 E enviou a terça parte do povo ao mando de Joabe, e outra terça parte ao mando de Abisai, filho de Zeruia, irmão de Joabe, e a outra terceira parte ao mando de Itai geteu. E disse o rei ao povo: Eu também sairei convosco.
3 Mas o povo disse: Não sairás; porque se nós fugirmos, não farão caso de nós; e ainda que a metade de nós morra, não farão caso de nós: mas tu agora vales tanto quanto dez mil de nós. Será pois melhor que da cidade tu nos ajudes.
4 Então o rei lhes disse: Eu farei o que bem vos parecer. E pôs-se o rei à entrada da porta, enquanto saía todo aquele povo de cento em cento e de mil em mil.
