2 Samuel 14:4-20

And when the woman
<0802>
of Tekoah
<08621>
spake
<0559> (8799)
to the king
<04428>_,
she fell
<05307> (8799)
on her face
<0639>
to the ground
<0776>_,
and did obeisance
<07812> (8691)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Help
<03467> (8685)_,
O king
<04428>_.
{Help: Heb. Save}
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered
<0559> (8799)_,
I [am] indeed
<061>
a widow
<0490>
woman
<0802>_,
and mine husband
<0376>
is dead
<04191> (8799)_.
And thy handmaid
<08198>
had two
<08147>
sons
<01121>_,
and they two
<08147>
strove together
<05327> (8735)
in the field
<07704>_,
and [there was] none to part
<05337> (8688)
them, but the one
<0259>
smote
<05221> (8686)
the other
<0259>_,
and slew
<04191> (8686)
him. {none...: Heb. no deliverer between them}
And, behold, the whole family
<04940>
is risen
<06965> (8804)
against thine handmaid
<08198>_,
and they said
<0559> (8799)_,
Deliver
<05414> (8798)
him that smote
<05221> (8688)
his brother
<0251>_,
that we may kill
<04191> (8686)
him, for the life
<05315>
of his brother
<0251>
whom he slew
<02026> (8804)_;
and we will destroy
<08045> (8686)
the heir
<03423> (8802)
also: and so they shall quench
<03518> (8765)
my coal
<01513>
which is left
<07760> (8800)_,
and shall not leave
<07604> (8738)
to my husband
<0376>
[neither] name
<08034>
nor remainder
<07611>
upon
<06440>
the earth
<0127>_.
{upon...: Heb. upon the face of the earth}
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the woman
<0802>_,
Go
<03212> (8798)
to thine house
<01004>_,
and I will give charge
<06680> (8762)
concerning thee.
And the woman
<0802>
of Tekoah
<08621>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
My lord
<0113>_,
O king
<04428>_,
the iniquity
<05771>
[be] on me, and on my father's
<01>
house
<01004>_:
and the king
<04428>
and his throne
<03678>
[be] guiltless
<05355>_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Whosoever saith
<01696> (8764)
[ought] unto thee, bring
<0935> (8689)
him to me, and he shall not touch
<05060> (8800)
thee any more
<03254> (8686)_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
she, I pray thee, let the king
<04428>
remember
<02142> (8799)
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
that thou wouldest not suffer the revengers
<01350> (8802)
of blood
<01818>
to destroy
<07843> (8763)
any more
<07235> (8687)_,
lest they destroy
<08045> (8686)
my son
<01121>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
[As] the LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_,
there shall not one hair
<08185>
of thy son
<01121>
fall
<05307> (8799)
to the earth
<0776>_.
{that...: Heb. that the revenger of blood do not multiply to destroy}
Then the woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Let thine handmaid
<08198>_,
I pray thee, speak
<01696> (8762)
[one] word
<01697>
unto my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Say on
<01696> (8761)_.
And the woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Wherefore then hast thou thought
<02803> (8804)
such a thing against the people
<05971>
of God
<0430>_?
for the king
<04428>
doth speak
<01696> (8693)
this thing
<01697>
as one which is faulty
<0818>_,
in that the king
<04428>
doth not fetch home again
<07725> (8687)
his banished
<05080> (8737)_.
For we must needs
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8799)_,
and [are] as water
<04325>
spilt
<05064> (8737)
on the ground
<0776>_,
which cannot be gathered up again
<0622> (8735)_;
neither doth God
<0430>
respect
<05375> (8799)
[any] person
<05315>_:
yet doth he devise
<02803> (8804)
means
<04284>_,
that his banished
<05080> (8737)
be not expelled
<05080> (8799)
from him. {neither...: or, because God hath not taken away his life, he hath also devised means, etc}
Now therefore that I am come
<0935> (8804)
to speak
<01696> (8763)
of this thing
<01697>
unto my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_,
[it is] because the people
<05971>
have made me afraid
<03372> (8765)_:
and thy handmaid
<08198>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
I will now speak
<01696> (8762)
unto the king
<04428>_;
it may be that the king
<04428>
will perform
<06213> (8799)
the request
<01697>
of his handmaid
<0519>_.
For the king
<04428>
will hear
<08085> (8799)_,
to deliver
<05337> (8687)
his handmaid
<0519>
out of the hand
<03709>
of the man
<0376>
[that would] destroy
<08045> (8687)
me and my son
<01121>
together
<03162>
out of the inheritance
<05159>
of God
<0430>_.
Then thine handmaid
<08198>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
The word
<01697>
of my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
shall now be comfortable
<04496>_:
for as an angel
<04397>
of God
<0430>_,
so [is] my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
to discern
<08085> (8800)
good
<02896>
and bad
<07451>_:
therefore the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
will be with thee. {comfortable: Heb. for rest} {to discern: Heb. to hear}
Then the king
<04428>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto the woman
<0802>_,
Hide
<03582> (8762)
not from me, I pray thee, the thing
<01697>
that I shall ask
<07592> (8802)
thee. And the woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Let my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
now speak
<01696> (8762)_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
[Is not] the hand
<03027>
of Joab
<03097>
with thee in all this? And the woman
<0802>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
[As] thy soul
<05315>
liveth
<02416>_,
my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_,
none
<0376>
can
<0786>
turn to the right hand
<03231> (8687)
or to the left
<08041> (8687)
from ought that my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)_:
for thy servant
<05650>
Joab
<03097>_,
he bade
<06680> (8765)
me, and he put
<07760> (8804)
all these words
<01697>
in the mouth
<06310>
of thine handmaid
<08198>_:
To
<05668>
fetch about
<05437> (8763)
this form
<06440>
of speech
<01697>
hath thy servant
<05650>
Joab
<03097>
done
<06213> (8804)
this thing
<01697>_:
and my lord
<0113>
[is] wise
<02450>_,
according to the wisdom
<02451>
of an angel
<04397>
of God
<0430>_,
to know
<03045> (8800)
all [things] that [are] in the earth
<0776>_.
