2 Samuel 14:16

Context
14:16 Yes! 1  The king may 2  listen and deliver his female servant 3  from the hand of the man who seeks to remove 4  both me and my son from the inheritance God has given us!’ 5 

1 tn Or “for.”

2 tn Or “will.” The imperfect verbal form can have either an indicative or modal nuance. The use of “perhaps” in v. 15b suggests the latter here.

3 tn Heb “in order to deliver his maid.”

4 tn Heb “destroy.”

5 tn Heb “from the inheritance of God.” The expression refers to the property that was granted to her family line in the division of the land authorized by God.
