Tad zazvaše Jahvu i rekoše: "Ah, Jahve, ne daj da poginemo zbog života ovoga čovjeka i ne svali na nas krv nevinu, jer ti si Jahve: činiš kako ti je milo."
Wherefore they cried unto the LORD, and said, We beseech thee, O LORD, we beseech thee, let us not perish for this man's life, and lay not upon us innocent blood: for thou, O LORD, hast done as it pleased thee.
