2 Samuel 18:13 in Context — 2 Samuel 18
11 E Joabe respondeu ao homem que lhe dava a nova: E vendo-o tu, por que não lhe feriste logo ali lançando-lhe à terra? E sobre mim, que te haveria dado dez siclos de prata, e um cinto.
12 E o homem disse a Joabe: Ainda que me importasse em minhas mãos mil siclos de prata, não estenderia eu minha mão contra o filho do rei; porque nós o ouvimos quando o rei te mandou a ti e a Abisai e a Itai, dizendo: Olhai que ninguém toque no jovem Absalão.
13 Por outra parte, haveria eu feito traição contra minha vida (pois que ao rei nada se lhe esconde), e tu mesmo estarias contra mim.
14 E respondeu Joabe: Não perderei tempo contigo. E tomando três dardos em suas mãos, fincou-os no coração de Absalão, que ainda estava vivo em meio do carvalho.
15 Cercando-o logo dez rapazes escudeiros de Joabe, feriram a Absalão, e acabaram-lhe.
