2 Samuel 14:15-17
15Now then, 1the reason I have come to speak this word to my lord the king is that the people have made me afraid; so your servant said, ‘Let me now speak to the king, perhaps the king will perform the 2request of his slave. 16For the king will listen, to save his slave from the 3hand of the man who would eliminate 4both me and my son from 5the inheritance of God.’ 17Then your servant said, ‘Please let the word of my lord the king be 6comforting, for as 7the angel of God, so is my lord the king to discern good and evil. And may the Lord your God be with you.’”
