Dejen que nuestros desterrados moren entre ustedes, ocúltenlos de nuestros enemigos. Dios los recompensará por su bondad para con nosotros. Si dejan que los fugitivos de Moab se establezcan entre ustedes, una vez pasado el terror, Dios establecerá el trono de David para siempre, y en ese trono pondrá a un rey justo e íntegro.
