Over the company of the tribe of the Manassehites was Gamaliel son of Pedahzur,

<p class="poetry">He redeemed my life<n id="1" />p> <p class="poetry">from going down to the place of corruption,p> <p class="poetry">and my life sees the light!&#8217;p>

<p class="bodytext">On the eighth day Gamaliel son of Pedahzur, leader of the Manassehites, presented an offering.

The king swore an oath: &#8220;As certainly as the <sc>Lordsc> lives (he who has rescued me<n id="1" /> from every danger),

<p class="poetry">Certainly a man cannot rescue his brother;<n id="1" />p> <p class="poetry">he cannot pay God an adequate ransom price<n id="2" />p>

<p class="poetry">He will rescue<n id="1" /> me and protect me from those who attack me,<n id="2" />p> <p class="poetry">even though<n id="3" /> they greatly outnumber me.<n id="4" />p>
