1 Chronicles 12:15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ These are they who passed over the Jordan in the first month, when it is used to how over its banks: and they put to flight all that dwelt in the valleys both toward the east and toward the west.

¹⁶ And there came also of the men of Benjamin, and of Juda to the hold, in which David abode.

¹⁷ And David went out to meet them, and said: If you are come peaceably to me to help me, let my heart be joined to you: but if you plot against me for my enemies whereas I have no iniquity in my hands, let the God of our fathers see, and judge.
