93 Hashem reigneth, He is robed with majesty; Hashem is clothed with strength, wherewith He hath girded Himself; the tevel (world) also is established, that it cannot be moved.

² Thy kisse is established of old; Thou art me’olam (from everlasting).

³ The floods have lifted up, Hashem, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.

⁴ Hashem on high is mightier than the noise of mayim rabbim, yea, than the mighty waves of the yam.

^16 (17) And there came of the Bnei Binyamin and Yehudah to the stronghold unto Dovid.

^17 (18) And Dovid went out before them, and answered and said unto them, If ye be come in shalom unto me to help me, mine lev shall be united unto you, but if ye be come to betray me to mine enemies, seeing there is no chamas in mine hands, Elohei Avoteinu look thereon, and pass [His] judgment.

^18 (19) Then the Ruach [HaKodesh] came upon Amasai, who was head of the Thirty, and he said, Thine are we, Dovid, and on thy side, thou Ben Yishai. Shalom, shalom be unto thee, and shalom be to thine helpers; for Eloheicha helpeth thee. Then Dovid received them, and made them heads of the gedud (raiding band, troop).

^19 (20) And there defected some of Menasheh to Dovid, when he went with the Pelishtim (Philistines) against Sha’ul for milchamah, but they helped them [Pelishtim] not; for the rulers of the Pelishtim after etzah (counsel) sent him [Dovid] away, saying, He [Dovid] will defect to his adon Sha’ul to the jeopardy of our heads.

^20 (21) As he went to Tziklag, there defected to him those of Menasheh, Adnach, and Yozavad, and Yedia’el, and Micha’el, and Yozavad, and Elihu, and Tziltai, heads of the alafim that were of Menasheh.

^21 (22) And they helped Dovid against the gedud, for they were all gibborei chayil, and were sarim in the tzava (army).

^22 (23) For at that time day by day there came men to Dovid to help him, until it was a machaneh gadol, like the Machaneh Elohim.
