2 Samuel 14:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ I had two sons. They were out in the field fighting, and no one was there to ·stop [separate] them. So one ·son [^Lstruck and] killed the other son. ⁷ Now ·all the family group [the whole family/clan] ·is [^Lhas risen] against me. They said to me, ‘·Bring [Hand over; Give up] the son who ·killed [^Lstruck] his brother so we may ·kill [execute] him for ·killing [murdering; taking the life of] his brother. That way we will ·also get rid of the one who would receive what belonged to his father [destroy the heir as well; ^Cso he doesn’t profit from his crime].’ ·My son is like the last spark of a fire. He is all [^LThey want to extinguish/quench the only coal/ember] I have left. ·If they kill him, my [^LMy] husband’s name and ·property [or family; descendents; ^Lremnant] will be gone from the ·earth [^Lface of the earth].”

⁸ Then the king said to the woman, “Go home. I will ·take care of this for [^Lgive orders concerning] you.”
