2 Samuel 3:34-36
New American Standard Bible
34 Your hands were not bound, nor your feet put in bronze shackles;
As one falls before the [a]wicked, you have fallen.”
And all the people wept over him again. 35 Then all the people came (A)to provide [b]food for David in his distress while it was still day; but David vowed, saying, “(B)May God do so to me, and more so, if I taste bread or anything else (C)before the sun goes down.” 36 Now all the people took note of David’s vow, and it [c]pleased them, just as everything that the king did [d]pleased all the people.
