@ And the
king
said
unto her, What aileth thee? And she
answered
, I am
indeed
a
widow
woman
, and mine
husband
is
dead
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:6
@ And thy
handmaid
had
two
sons
, and they
two
strove
together
in the
field
, and there was none to
part
them, but the
one
smote
the
other
, and
slew
him.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:7
@ And, behold, the whole
family
is
risen
against thine
handmaid

said
,
Deliver
him that
smote
his
brother
, that we may
kill
him, for the
life
of his
brother
whom he
slew
; and we will
destroy
the
heir
also: and so they shall
quench
my
coal

left

husband
neither
name

remainder

earth

@ And the
king
said
unto the
woman
,
Go
to thine
house
, and I will give
charge
concerning thee.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:9
@ And the
woman
of
Tekoah
said
unto the
king
, My
lord
, O
king
, the
iniquity
be on me, and on my
fathers
house
: and the
king
and his
throne
be
guiltless
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:10
@ And the
king
said
, Whosoever
saith
ought unto thee,
bring
him to me, and he shall not
touch
thee any
more
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:11
@ Then
said
she, I pray thee, let the
king
remember
the
LORD
thy
God
, that thou wouldest not suffer the
revengers
of
blood
to
destroy
any
more
, lest they
destroy
my
son
. And he
said
, As the
LORD
liveth
, there shall not one
hair
of thy
son
fall
to the
earth
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:12
@ Then the
woman
said
, Let thine
handmaid
, I pray thee,
speak
one
word
unto my
lord
the
king
. And he
said
, Say
on
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:13
@ And the
woman
said
, Wherefore then hast thou
thought
such a thing against the
people
of
God
? for the
king
doth
speak
this
thing
as one which is
faulty
, in that the
king
doth not fetch home
again
his
banished
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:14
@ For we must
needs
die
, and are as
water
spilt
on the
ground
, which cannot be gathered up
again
; neither doth
God
respect
any
person
: yet doth he
devise
means
, that his
banished
be not
expelled
from him.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:15
@ Now therefore that I am
come
to
speak
of this
thing
unto my
lord
the
king
, it is because the
people
have made me
afraid
: and thy
handmaid
said
, I will now
speak
unto the
king
; it may be that the
king
will
perform
the
request
of his
handmaid
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:16
@ For the
king
will
hear
, to
deliver
his
handmaid
out of the
hand
of the
man
that would
destroy
me and my
son
together
out of the
inheritance
of
God
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:17
@ Then thine
handmaid
said
, The
word
of my
lord
the
king
shall now be
comfortable
: for as an
angel
of
God
, so is my
lord
the
king
to
discern
good
and
bad
: therefore the
LORD
thy
God
will be with thee.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:18
@ Then the
king
answered
and
said
unto the
woman
,
Hide
not from me, I pray thee, the
thing
that I shall
ask
thee. And the
woman
said
, Let my
lord
the
king
now
speak
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:19
@ And the
king
said
, Is not the
hand
of
Joab
with thee in all this? And the
woman
answered
and
said
, As thy
soul
liveth
, my
lord
the
king
,
none
can
turn to the right
hand
or to the
left
from ought that my
lord
the
king
hath
spoken
: for thy
servant
Joab
, he
bade
me, and he
put
all these
words
in the
mouth
of thine
handmaid
:
strkjv@2Samuel:14:20
@
To
fetch
about
this
form
of
speech
hath thy
servant
Joab
done
this
thing
: and my
lord
is
wise
, according to the
wisdom
of an
angel
of
God
, to
know
all things that are in the
earth
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:21
@ And the
king
said
unto
Joab
, Behold now, I have
done
this
thing
:
go
therefore,
bring
the young
man
Absalom
again
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:22
@ And
Joab
fell
to the
ground
on his
face
, and
bowed
himself, and
thanked
the
king
: and
Joab
said
, To
day
thy
servant
knoweth
that I have
found
grace
in thy
sight
, my
lord
, O
king
, in that the
king
hath
fulfilled
the
request
of his
servant
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:23
@ So
Joab
arose
and
went
to
Geshur
, and
brought
Absalom
to
Jerusalem
.
strkjv@2Samuel:14:24
@ And the
king
said
, Let him
turn
to his own
house
, and let him not
see
my
face
. So
Absalom
returned
to his own
house
, and
saw
not the
kings
face
.
