¹⁹ Now therefore, please let my lord the king listen to the words of his servant. If ^(A)the Lord has stirred you up against me, ^(B)let Him ^[a]accept an offering; but ^(C)if it is ^[b]men, cursed are they before the Lord, for ^(D)they have driven me out today so that I would have no attachment with the inheritance of the Lord, saying, ‘Go, serve other gods.’

¹⁹ I am of those who are peaceable and faithful in Israel. ^(A)You are seeking to destroy a city, even a mother in Israel. Why would you swallow up ^(B)the inheritance of the Lord?”
