2 Samuel 14:17 in Context — 2 Samuel 14

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.

18 Então ele respondeu, e disse à mulher: Eu te rogo que não me encubras nada do que eu te perguntar. E a mulher disse: Fale meu senhor o rei.

19 E o rei disse: Não foi a mão de Joabe contigo em todas estas coisas? E a mulher respondeu e disse: Vive tua alma, rei senhor meu, que não há que desviar-se à direita nem à esquerda de tudo o que meu senhor o rei falou: porque teu servo Joabe, ele me mandou, e ele pôs na boca de tua serva todas estas palavras.
