16:19 When they were few in number,
just a very few, and foreign residents within it,
16:20 they wandered from nation to nation,
and from one kingdom to another. 1
16:21 He let no one oppress them,
he disciplined kings for their sake,
16:22 saying, 2 “Don’t touch my anointed ones!
Don’t harm my prophets!”
