2 Samuel 19:5-7
5Then JoabH3097 cameH935 into the houseH1004 to the kingH4428 and saidH559, “TodayH3117 you have coveredH954 with shameH954 the facesH6440 of allH3605 your servantsH5650, who todayH3117 have savedH4422 your lifeH5315 and the livesH5315 of your sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323, the livesH5315 of your wivesH802, and the livesH5315 of your concubinesH6370,
6by lovingH157 those who hateH8130 you, and by hatingH8130 those who loveH157 you. For you have shownH5046 todayH3117 that 1princesH8269 and servantsH5650 are nothingH369 to you; for I knowH3045 this dayH3117 that ifH3863 AbsalomH53 were aliveH2416 and allH3605 of us were deadH4191 todayH3117, thenH227 2you would be pleasedH3474H5869.
7NowH6258 therefore ariseH6965, goH3318 out and speakH1696 3kindlyH3820 to your servantsH5650, for I swearH7650 by the LordH3068, ifH3588 you do not goH3318 out, surelyH518 4not a manH376 will passH3885 the nightH3915 with you, and thisH2088 will be worseH7489 for you thanH4480 allH3605 the evilH7463 that has comeH935 upon you from your youthH5271 untilH5704 nowH6258.”
