2 Samuel 19:26-27

English Standard Version

²⁶ He answered, “My lord, O king, my servant deceived me, for your servant said to him, ‘I will saddle a donkey for myself,^[a] that I may ride on it and go with the king.’ For ^(A)your servant is lame. ^27 (B)He has slandered your servant to my lord the king. But my lord the king is ^(C)like the angel of God; do therefore what seems good to you.
