Indeed, it was ^(A)your servant Joab who commanded me, and it was he who put all these words in the mouth of your servant-woman; ²⁰ in order to change the appearance of things your servant Joab has done this thing. But my lord is wise, ^(B)like the wisdom of the angel of God, to know all that is in the earth.”
