4 But the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him; and the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Make the man return, that he may go back to his place where thou hast appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he become an adversary to us: for wherewith should this fellow reconcile himself unto his lord? should it not be with the heads of these men?

And the leaders of the Philistines were angry with him, and they said to him, "Return the man and let him go back to his place that you have appointed for him, and let him not go down with us to the battle, and let him not be a stumbling block to us in the battle; for with what could this one please his master? Is it not with the heads of these men?"
