NASB

— 2 Samuel 14:16, NASB
“For the king will hear, to deliver his handmaid out of the hand of the man that would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God.”
“For the king will hear, to deliver his servant out of the hand of the man that would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God. ”
