2 Samuel 14:5-12

5And the kingH4428 saidH559 to her, What aileth thee? And she answeredH559, I am indeedH61 a widowH490 womanH802, and my husbandH376 is deadH4191.

6And thy handmaidH8198 had twoH8147 sonsH1121, and they twoH8147 strove togetherH5327 in the fieldH7704, and there was none to partH5337 them, but the oneH259 smoteH5221 the otherH259, and slewH4191 him.1

7And, behold, the whole familyH4940 hath risenH6965 against thy handmaidH8198, and they saidH559, DeliverH5414 him that smoteH5221 his brotherH251, that we may killH4191 him, for the lifeH5315 of his brotherH251 whom he slewH2026; and we will destroyH8045 the heirH3423 also: and so they shall quenchH3518 my coalH1513 which is leftH7760, and shall not leaveH7604 to my husbandH376 neither nameH8034 nor remainderH7611 uponH6440 the earthH127.2

8And the kingH4428 saidH559 to the womanH802, GoH3212 to thy houseH1004, and I will issue an orderH6680 concerning thee.

9And the womanH802 of TekoahH8621 saidH559 to the kingH4428, My lordH113, O kingH4428, the iniquityH5771 be on me, and on my father’sH1 houseH1004: and the kingH4428 and his throneH3678 be guiltlessH5355.

10And the kingH4428 saidH559, Whoever saithH1696 any thing to thee, bringH935 him to me, and he shall not touchH5060 thee any moreH3254.

11Then saidH559 she, I pray thee, let the kingH4428 rememberH2142 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, that thou wouldest not permit the avengerH1350 of bloodH1818 to destroyH7843 any moreH7235, lest they destroyH8045 my sonH1121. And he saidH559, As the LORDH3068 livethH2416, there shall not one hairH8185 of thy sonH1121 fallH5307 to the earthH776.3

12Then the womanH802 saidH559, Let thy handmaidH8198, I pray thee, speakH1696 one wordH1697 to my lordH113 the kingH4428. And he saidH559, Say onH1696.
