Protestant Bible · KJV · Verse 12 of 33

"Then the woman said, Let thine handmaid, I pray thee, speak word unto my lord the king. And he said, Say on."
2 Samuel 14:12

In context

10And the king said, Whosoever saith unto thee, bring him to me, and he shall not touch thee any more.

11Then 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, the LORD liveth, there shall not one hair of thy son fall to the earth.

12Then the woman said, Let thine handmaid, I pray thee, speak word unto my lord the king. And he said, Say on.

13And 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.

14For we must needs die, and as water spilt on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again; neither doth God respect person: yet doth he devise means, that his banished be not expelled from him.
