2 Samuel 3:34-36
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
34 Thy hands were not bound, nor thy feet laden with fetters: but as men fall before the children of iniquity, so didst thou fall. And all the people repeating it wept over him.
35 And when all the people came to take meat with David, while it was yet broad day, David swore, saying: So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread or any thing else before sunset.
36 And all the people heard, and they were pleased, and all that the king did seemed good in the sight of all the people.
