2 Samuel 14:5-7

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁵ The king asked her, What troubles you? She said, I am a widow; my husband is dead.

⁶ And your handmaid had two sons, and they quarreled with one another in the field. There was no one to separate them, and one struck the other and killed him.

⁷ And behold, our whole family has risen against your handmaid, and they say, Deliver him who slew his brother, that we may kill him for the life of his brother whom he slew; and so they would destroy the heir also. And so quenching my coal which is left, they would leave to my husband neither name nor remnant upon the earth.
