2 Samuel 14:15 in Context — 2 Samuel 14
13 Então a mulher disse: Por que pois pensas tu outro tanto contra o povo de Deus? que falando o rei esta palavra, é como culpado, porquanto o rei não faz voltar a seu fugitivo.
14 Porque de certo morremos, e somos como águas derramadas por terra, que não podem voltar a recolher-se: nem Deus tira a vida, mas sim planeja meio para que seu desviado não seja dele excluído.
15 E que eu vim agora para dizer isto ao rei meu senhor, é porque o povo me pôs medo. Mas tua serva disse: Falarei agora ao rei: talvez ele faça o que sua serva diga.
16 Pois o rei ouvirá, para livrar à sua serva da mão do homem que me quer exterminar a mim, e a meu filho juntamente, da propriedade de Deus.
17 Tua serva, pois, disse: Que seja agora a resposta de meu senhor o rei para descanso; pois que meu senhor o rei é como um anjo de Deus para escutar o bem e o mal. Assim o SENHOR teu Deus seja contigo.
