To Abiathar the priest the king said, “Go to Anathoth, to your own fields, for you are worthy of death. But I will not at this time put you to death, because you bore the Lord GOD’s ark before David my father, and because you were afflicted in all in which my father was afflicted.”

ગુજરાતી1 રાજાઓ ૨:૨૬
પછી અબ્યાથાર યાજકને રાજાએ કહ્યું, “તું અનાથોથમાં તારાં પોતાના ખેતરોમાં જતો રહે. તું મૃત્યુદંડને જ લાયક છે, પણ હું તને આ વખતે મારી નાખીશ નહિ. કારણ કે તેં ઈશ્વર યહોવાહનો કોશ મારા પિતા દાઉદ સમક્ષ ઊંચકેલો અને મારા પિતાએ સહન કરેલા સર્વ દુઃખોમાં તું પણ દુઃખી થયો હતો.”
हिन्दी1 राजाओं २:२६
तब एब्यातार याजक से राजा ने कहा, “अनातोत में अपनी भूमि को जा; क्योंकि तू भी प्राणदण्ड के योग्य है। आज के दिन तो मैं तुझे न मार डालूँगा, क्योंकि तू मेरे पिता दाऊद के सामने प्रभु यहोवा का सन्दूक उठाया करता था; और उन सब दुःखों में जो मेरे पिता पर पड़े थे तू भी दुःखी था।”
