2 Samuel 18:12

וַיֹּאמֶר הָאִישׁ אֶל ־ יוֹאָב ולא אָנֹכִי שֹׁקֵל עַל ־ כַּפַּי אֶלֶף כֶּסֶף לֹֽא ־ אֶשְׁלַח יָדִי אֶל ־ בֶּן ־ הַמֶּלֶךְ כִּי בְאָזְנֵינוּ צִוָּה הַמֶּלֶךְ אֹתְךָ וְאֶת ־ אֲבִישַׁי וְאֶת ־ אִתַּי לֵאמֹר שִׁמְרוּ ־ מִי בַּנַּעַר בְּאַבְשָׁלֽוֹם ׃

Hebrew Tanakh (Original)

In The King James Version
