2 Samuel 14:5-12

5And the kingH4428 saidH559 to her, What aileth thee? And she saidH559, I am indeed a widowH490 womanH802, and my husbandH376 is deadH4191.

6And thy bondmaid had twoH8147 sonsH1121, and they twoH8147 strove together in the fieldH7704, and there was none to part them, but the oneH259 smote the other and slew him.

7And behold, the whole familyH4940 is risenH6965 against thy bondmaid, and they sayH559, Deliver him that smote his brotherH251, that we may putH5414 him to deathH4191, for the lifeH5315 of his brotherH251 whom he killedH2026; and we will destroyH8045 the heir alsoH1571: so they will quenchH3518 my coalH1513 which is leftH7604, and will not leaveH7604 to my husbandH376 a nameH8034 or remnantH7611 on the earthH127.

8And the kingH4428 saidH559 to the womanH802, Go to thy houseH1004, and I will give charge concerning thee.

9And the womanH802 of Tekoah saidH559 to the kingH4428, Upon me, my lordH113, O kingH4428, be the iniquityH5771, and upon my father's houseH1004; and the kingH4428 and his throneH3678 be guiltless.

10And the kingH4428 saidH559, Whoever speaksH1696 to thee, bringH935 him to me, and he shall not touchH5060 thee any more.

11Then she saidH559, I pray thee, let the kingH4428 rememberH2142 Jehovah thy 1GodH430, that thou wouldest not suffer the revengers of bloodH1818 to destroyH7843 any more, lest they cut off my sonH1121. And he saidH559, [As] Jehovah liveth, there shall not one hairH8185 of thy sonH1121 fallH5307 to the earthH776.

12And the womanH802 saidH559, Let thy bondmaid, I pray thee, speakH1696 a wordH1697 to my lordH113 the kingH4428. And he saidH559, SpeakH1696.
