2 Samuel 14:19-21

Tree of Life Version

¹⁹ Then the king said, “Is the hand of Joab with you in all this?”

“As your soul lives, my lord the king,” the woman answered, “no one can turn to the right or to the left from anything that my lord the king has spoken. Yes, your servant Joab was the one who commanded me and put all these words in the mouth of your handmaid. ²⁰ Your servant Joab did this thing in order to bring about a change in the situation. But my lord is wise—like the wisdom of an angel of God—to know all that goes on in the land.”

²¹ Then the king said to Joab, “Behold now, I will do this thing. So go, bring the young man Absalom back.”
