2 Samuel 19:27-29

Tree of Life Version

²⁷ “My lord the king, my own servant deceived me,” he answered. “For your servant had said, ‘I will saddle a donkey for myself, ride on it and go with the king,’ because your servant is lame. ²⁸ However, he has slandered your servant to my lord the king. But my lord the king is like an angel of God. So do what is good in your eyes. ²⁹ For all my father’s household deserved only death at the hand of my lord the king; yet you set your servant among those eating at your own table! What right do I have yet to cry to the king?”
