Nueva Biblia Viva (NBV)

El rey se dirigió a Itay, el jefe de los seiscientos guititas, y le dijo: ―¿Qué estás haciendo aquí? Vuelve y quédate con el nuevo rey, porque tú eres extranjero en Israel, y estás desterrado de tu patria. Casi acabas de llegar y no encuentro justo que te obligue a ir con nosotros quién sabe por qué lugares. Vuelve y lleva tus tropas contigo, y que el Señor sea misericordioso contigo.
