And the king said unto the guard that stood about him, Turn, and slay the priests of Jehovah; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew that he fled, and did not disclose it to me. But the servants of the king would not put forth their hand to fall upon the priests of Jehovah.
And þe kyng seide to men able to be sent out, þat stoden aboute hym, Turne ye, and sle þe preestis of þe Lord, for þe hond of hem is with Dauid; and þei wisten þat he fledde, and þei schewiden not to me. Soþeli þe seruauntis of þe kyng nolden holde forth her hond in to þe preestis of þe Lord.
