2 Samuel 14:19-21
Modern English Version
19 The king said, “Is the hand of Joab with you in all of this?”
The woman answered and said, “As your soul lives, my lord the king, there is no turning right or left from anything that you spoke, my lord the king, for your servant Joab is the very one who commanded me and placed all of these words in my mouth. 20 In order to change this situation, your servant Joab did this thing; but my lord is wise, as with the wisdom of the angel of God, so as to discern everything happening in the land.”
21 Then the king said to Joab, “This is what I will do. Go and bring back the young man Absalom.”

2 Samuel 14:19-21
New International Version
19 The king asked, “Isn’t the hand of Joab(A) with you in all this?”
The woman answered, “As surely as you live, my lord the king, no one can turn to the right or to the left from anything my lord the king says. Yes, it was your servant Joab who instructed me to do this and who put all these words into the mouth of your servant. 20 Your servant Joab did this to change the present situation. My lord has wisdom(B) like that of an angel of God—he knows everything that happens in the land.(C)”
21 The king said to Joab, “Very well, I will do it. Go, bring back the young man Absalom.”
