2 Samuel 14:17-20
17And now your servantH8198H4994 saysH559, ‘MayH1961 the wordH1697 of my lordH113 the kingH4428 bring me restH4496, forH3588 my lordH113 the kingH4428 is able to discernH8085 goodH2896 and evilH7451, just like the angelH43971 of GodH430H3651. May the LORDH3068 your GodH430 beH1961 with youH5973.’”
18Then the kingH4428 saidH6030 toH413 the womanH802, “I amH595 going to askH7592 youH853 somethingH1697; do notH408H4994 concealH3582 it from meH4480!”
“Let my lordH113 the kingH4428 speakH1696H4994,” sheH802 repliedH559.
19So the kingH4428 askedH559, “Is the handH3027 of JoabH3097 behindH854 allH3605 thisH2063?”
The womanH802H559 answeredH6030, “As surely as youH5315 liveH2416, my lordH113 the kingH4428, no oneH518 can turnH786 to the rightH3231 or to the leftH8041 from anythingH3605 thatH834 my lordH113 the kingH4428 saysH1696. YesH3588, your servantH5650 JoabH3097 is the one whoH1931 gave me ordersH6680; heH1931 toldH7760H6310 your maidservantH8198 exactly what to sayH1697H428. 20JoabH3097 your servantH5650 has doneH6213 thisH2088 toH5668 bring aboutH5437 this changeH6440 of affairsH1697, but my lordH113 has wisdomH2450 like the wisdomH2451 of the angelH4397 of GodH430, to knowH3045 everythingH3605 thatH834 happens in the landH776.”
