2 Samuel 15:14-16

Living Bible

¹⁴ “Then we must flee at once or it will be too late!” was David’s instant response to his men. “If we get out of the city before he arrives, both we and the city of Jerusalem will be saved.”

¹⁵ “We are with you,” his aides replied. “Do as you think best.”

¹⁶ So the king and his household set out at once. He left no one behind except ten of his young wives to keep the palace in order.
