2 Samuel 18:12-14

The Voice

Soldier: ¹² If you put 1,000 pieces of silver into my hand, I wouldn’t raise it against the king’s son. We all heard the king say to you generals, “For my sake, protect young Absalom.” ¹³ If I had taken his life despite that, you would stand back and watch as they strung me up. Nothing is hidden from the king.

Joab: ¹⁴ I can’t stand here talking to you all day.
