2 Samuel 14:12-14

2 Samuel 14:12-14 MEV

Then the woman said, “Allow your servant to speak a word to my lord the king.” So he said, “Speak.” The woman said, “Why have you planned like this against the people of God? The king’s speaking this word is like a self-conviction, for the king has not brought back his own banished one. We will surely die and are like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again. Yet God does not take away a life; He devises plans so that His banished ones will not be cast out from Him.
