1 Chronicles 12:16-18

The Voice

David (to the Benjaminites and Judahites): ¹⁷ If you are joining my army because you agree with my rule, then I welcome your help. We will unify the land of Israel as brothers. But if you are joining me as spies for my enemies, even though I have done nothing wrong, then our God, the God of our fathers, will judge your actions.

Amasai, the Chief of the 30 (inspired by the Spirit): ¹⁸ We are at your command, David, son of Jesse! May peace reward you and your allies, for your God is your ally.
