But the people answered, Thou shalt not go forth: for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us: but now [thou art] worth ten thousand of us: therefore now [it is] better that thou succour us out of the city.
But the people {H5971} answered {H559}, Thou shalt not go forth {H3318}: for if we flee {H5127} away {H5127}, they will not care {H7760}{H3820} for us; neither if half {H2677} of us die {H4191}, will they care {H7760}{H3820} for us: but now thou art worth {H3644} ten {H6235} thousand {H505} of us: therefore now it is better {H2896} that thou succour {H5826}{H5826} us out of the city {H5892}.
But the people replied, "Don't go out; because if we flee, they won't care about us. Even if half of us die, they won't care about us. But you are worth ten thousand of us; so it is better now that you stay in the city and be ready if we need help."
But the people pleaded, “You must not go out! For if we have to flee, they will pay no attention to us. Even if half of us die, they will not care; but you are worth ten thousand of us. It is better for now if you support us from the city.”
But the people said, Thou shalt not go forth: for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us: but thou art worth ten thousand of us; therefore now it is better that thou be ready to succor us out of the city.
