2 Samuel 13:16

Context

13:16 But she said to him, “No I won’t, for sending me away now would be worse than what you did to me earlier!” 1  But he refused to listen to her.

2 Samuel 19:14

Context

19:14 He 2  won over the hearts of all the men of Judah as though they were one man. Then they sent word to the king saying, “Return, you and all your servants as well.”

1 tn Heb “No, because this great evil is [worse] than the other which you did with me, by sending me away.” Perhaps the broken syntax reflects her hysteria and outrage.

2 tn The referent of “he” is not entirely clear: cf. NCV “David”; TEV “David’s words”; NRSV, NLT “Amasa.”
