2 Samuel 14:7-11

7And, behold, the whole familyH4940 is risenH6965 against thy handmaid, and they sayH559, Deliver him that smote his brotherH251, that we may killH2026 him for the lifeH5315 of his brotherH251 whom he slewH2026, and so destroyH8045 the heir alsoH1571. Thus will they quenchH3518 my coalH1513 which is leftH7604, and will leaveH7604 to my husbandH376 neither nameH8034 nor remainder upon the faceH6440 of the earthH127.

8And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto the womanH802, Go to thy houseH1004, and I will give charge concerning thee. 9And the womanH802 of Tekoa saidH559 unto the kingH4428, My lordH113, O kingH4428, the iniquityH5771 be on me, and on my father’sH1 houseH1004; and the kingH4428 and his throneH3678 be guiltless. 10And the kingH4428 saidH559, Whosoever saith aught unto thee, bringH935 him to me, and he shall not touchH5060 thee any more. 11Then saidH559 she, I pray thee, let the kingH4428 rememberH2142 Jehovah thy GodH430, that the avengerH1350 of bloodH1818 destroyH7843 not any more, lest they destroyH7843 my sonH1121. And he saidH559, As Jehovah liveth, there shall not one hairH8185 of thy sonH1121 fallH5307 to the earthH776.
