For I was ashamed H954 (QalPerf) to require H7592 (QalInf) of the king H4428 a band of soldiers H2428 and horsemen H6571 to help H5826 (QalInf) us against the enemy H341 (QalActPtc) in the way: H1870 because we had spoken H559 (QalPerf) unto the king, H4428 saying, H559 (QalInf) The hand H3027 of our God H430 is upon all them for good H2896 that seek H1245 (PielPtc) him; but his power H5797 and his wrath H639 is against all them that forsake H5800 (QalActPtc) him.
