Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:11 - She replied, "In that case, let the king invoke the name of the LORD your God so that the avenger of blood may not kill! Then they will not destroy my son!" He replied, "As surely as the LORD lives, not a single hair of your son's head will fall to the ground."
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:13 - The woman said, "Why have you devised something like this against God's people? When the king speaks in this fashion, he makes himself guilty, for the king has not brought back the one he has banished.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:19 - The king said, "Did Joab put you up to all of this?"
