Schlachter Bibel (1951)
Der König sprach: Ist nicht Joabs Hand mit dir bei alledem? Das Weib antwortete und sprach: So wahr deine Seele lebt, mein H err und König, es ist nicht möglich, weder zur Rechten noch zur Linken auszuweichen bei allem, was mein H err, der König, sagt. Ja, dein Knecht Joab hat es mir befohlen, und er selbst hat alle diese Worte deiner Magd in den Mund gelegt.
Elberfelder Bibel (1905)
Und der K�nig sprach: Ist die Hand Joabs mit dir in diesem allem? Und das Weib antwortete und sprach: So wahr deine Seele lebt, mein Herr K�nig, wenn zur Rechten oder zur Linken zu weichen ist von allem, was mein Herr, der K�nig, redet! Denn dein Knecht Joab, er hat es mir geboten, und er hat deiner Magd alle diese Worte in den Mund gelegt.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the king said, [is not] the hand of Joab with thee in all this?.... That is, is not this done by the advice, assistance, and direction of Joab? did not he form this scheme for thee, and direct thee to this method, and put thee upon prosecuting it?

and the woman answered and said, [as] thy soul liveth, my lord the king; what I am about to say is as sure as thou art alive; though this may be only a wish that he might long live and be happy; nothing is more desirable than thy valuable life:

none can turn to the right hand or the left from ought that my lord the king hath spoken; he has hit upon the truth of the matter; there is no dissimulation or prevarication to be used; the thing cannot be denied; for thy servant Joab he bade me, and put all these words in the mouth of thine handmaid: he sent for me, and laid his commands on me, and directed me what to say to the king, and how to conduct this affair.
