2 Samuel 14:19

Det Norsk Bibelselskap

Da sa kongen: Har ikke Joab sin hånd med i alt dette? Kvinnen svarte: Så sant du lever, herre konge: Ingen kan komme utenom noget av det min herre kongen taler, hverken til høire eller venstre. Det var din tjener Joab som påla mig dette og la alle disse ord i din tjenerinnes munn.

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.
