Context of 2 Samuel 14:10
8Then David said to the woman, “Go to your home, and I will give orders concerning you.” 9The woman of Tekoa said to the king, “My lord, O king, the guilt is on me and on my father’s house, but the king and his throne are guiltless.” The king said, “If anyone speaks to you [about this matter], bring him to me [for judgment], and he will not touch you again.” 11Then she said, “Please let the king remember the Lord your God, so that the avenger of blood will not continue to destroy, otherwise they will destroy my son.” And David said, “As the Lord lives, not a single hair [from the head] of your son shall fall to the ground.” 12Then the woman said, “Please let your maidservant speak one more word to my lord the king.” He said, “Speak.”
