2 Samuel 20:19-21
19I am of those who are peaceableH7999 and faithfulH539 in IsraelH3478. 1You are seekingH1245 to destroyH4191 a cityH5892, even a motherH517 in IsraelH3478. WhyH4100 would you swallowH1104 up 2the inheritanceH5159 of the LordH3068?”
20JoabH3097 repliedH6030, “FarH2486 be it, farH2486 be it from me that I should swallowH1104 up or destroyH7843!
21SuchH3651 is not the caseH1697. But a manH376 from 3the hillH2022 countryH2022 of EphraimH669, 4ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075 by nameH8034, has liftedH5375 up his handH3027 against KingH4428 DavidH1732. OnlyH905 handH5414 him overH5414, and I will departH1980 from the cityH5892.” And the womanH802 saidH559 to JoabH3097, “BeholdH2009, his headH7218 will be thrownH7993 to you overH1157 the wallH2346.”
