Thy servant would but just go over the Jordan with the king: and why should the king recompense it me with such a reward?

Your servant's desire was only to take the king over Jordan; why is the king to give me such a reward?

ο δουλος σου θελει διαβη τον Ιορδανην μετα του βασιλεως μεχρις ολιγου διαστηματος· και δια τι ο βασιλευς ηθελε καμει εις εμε την ανταποδοσιν ταυτην;

Thy servant will go a little way over Jordan with the king: and why should the king recompense it me with such a reward?
