2 Samuel 4:9-11

9DavidH1732 answeredH6030 RechabH7394 and BaanahH1196 his brotherH251, sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 the BeerothiteH886, and saidH559 to them, “As the LordH3068 livesH2416, 1whoH834 has redeemedH6299 my lifeH5315 from allH3605 distressH6869,

102whenH3588 one toldH5046 me, sayingH559, ‘BeholdH2009, SaulH7586 is deadH4191,’ and 3thoughtH5869 he was bringingH1319 good newsH1319, I seizedH270 him and killedH2026 him in ZiklagH6860, whichH834 was the rewardH1309 I gaveH5414 him for his newsH1309.

11HowH637 muchH637H3588 moreH637H3588, whenH3588 wickedH7563 menH376 have killedH2026 a righteousH6662 manH376 in his own houseH1004 on his bedH4904, shall I not nowH6258 4requireH1245 his bloodH1818 from your handH3027 and 5destroyH1197 you from the earthH776?”
