20 However, one son of A·himʹe·lech the son of A·hiʹtub, whose name was A·biʹa·thar,+ escaped and ran away to follow David.

26 To A·biʹa·thar+ the priest, the king said: “Go to your fields in Anʹa·thoth!+ You deserve to die, but on this day I will not put you to death because you carried the Ark of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah before David my father+ and because you shared in all the hardships that my father suffered.”+
