And he goeth thence, and findeth Jehonadab son of Rechab--to meet him, and blesseth him, and saith unto him, `Is thy heart right, as my heart [is] with thy heart?' and Jehonadab saith, `It is;' --`Then it is; give thy hand;' and he giveth his hand, and he causeth him to come up into him into the chariot,
