Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But the people pleaded, “You must not go out! For if we have to flee, they will pay no attention to us. Even if half of us die, they will not care; but you are worth ten thousand of us. It is better for now if you support us from the city.”
World English Bible (WEB)
But the people said, “You shall not go forth; for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us. But you are worth ten thousand of us. Therefore now it is better that you are ready to help us out of the city.”
Strong's King James
But the people{H5971} answered{H559}{(H8799)}, Thou shalt not go forth{H3318}{(H8799)}: for if we flee{H5127}{(H8799)} away{H5127}{(H8800)}, they will not care{H7760}{(H8799)}{H3820} for us; neither if half{H2677} of us die{H4191}{(H8799)}, will they care{H7760}{(H8799)}{H3820} for us: but now thou art worth{H3644} ten{H6235} thousand{H505} of us: therefore now it is better{H2896} that thou succour{H5826}{(H8800)}{(H8675)}{H5826}{(H8687)} us out of the city{H5892}.

Young's Literal Translation
And the people say, ‘Thou dost not go out, for if we utterly flee, they do not set their heart upon us; and if half of us die, they do not set their heart unto us—for now like us are ten thousand; and now, better that thou be to us from the city for an helper.’
