Ale ona niewiasta z Tekuj odpowiedziała królowi: Królu mój panie, niechaj ta złość przyjdzie na mię i na dom ojca mego, a król i z stolicą swoją niechaj tego winien nie będzie.
I odpowiedziała niewiasta Tekuicka królowi: Królu, panie mój, niech będzie na mnie ta nieprawość, i na dom ojca mego; ale król i stolica jego niech będzie niewinna.
Lecz kobieta z Tekoa powiedziała: Już wkrótce, mój panie, królu, na mnie i na dom mojego ojca mogą spaść skutki tej winy. Król i jego tron w niczym nie ucierpią.
Wtedy kobieta z Tekoa odpowiedziała królowi: Na mnie, mój panie i królu, niech spadnie wina oraz na dom mojego ojca; zaś król i jego tron niech będzie czysty!
I kobieta z Tekoa odpowiedziała królowi: Mój panie, królu, niech ta nieprawość spadnie na mnie i na dom mego ojca. A król i jego tron niech będzie bez winy.
Lecz kobieta z Tekoa rzekła do króla: Na mnie, mój panie, królu, niech spadnie wina i na dom mojego ojca, król zaś i jego tron niech będą bez winy.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the woman of Tekoah said unto the king, my lord and king,.... With much vehemence, and yet with great respect, fearing an inquisition into her case; which it would not bear, being a fable, and being very desirous of having sentence on it immediately pronounced:
the iniquity [be] on me and on my father's house; let the crime be imputed to me and my family, and punishment inflicted on us for it, if I have misrepresented the case, told lies, and deceived the king:
and the king and his throne [be] guiltless; let neither he nor his kingdom be charged with any sin, or suffer any damage on that account: or else the sense is, supposing that the king through much business should forget and neglect this affair; and her son should be put to death, through the violence and rage of the family; then she wishes that the fault and punishment of such neglect might not fall upon the king and his kingdom, but upon her and her family: in this form she put it, for the honour of the king, and because she would not be thought to wish ill to him and his kingdom; yet tacitly suggests, that should this be the case, he and his kingdom must expect to answer and suffer for it.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The iniquity be on me ... - Compare the principle in Genesis 9:5-6; Numbers 35:30-34. The woman therefore says, if there is any such guilt in sparing my son, may it rest upon me and my house, not on David and his throne. Compare 2 Samuel 3:28. The cunning speech of the woman extracted a more direct promise of protection from the king 2 Samuel 14:1.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Samuel 14:9. The iniquity be on me — She intimates that, if the king should suppose that the not bringing the offender to the assigned punishment might reflect on the administration of justice in the land, she was willing that all blame should attach to her and her family, and the king and his throne be guiltless.
