2 Samuel 3:37 YLT

³⁵  And all the people come to cause David to eat bread while yet day, and David sweareth, saying, 'Thus doth God to me, and thus He doth add, for -- before the going in of the sun, I taste no bread or any other thing.'

³⁶  And all the people have discerned 'it', and it is good in their eyes, as all that the king hath done is good in the eyes of all the people;

³⁷  and all the people know, even all Israel, in that day, that it hath not been from the king -- to put to death Abner son of Ner.

³⁸  And the king saith unto his servants, 'Do ye not know that a prince and a great one hath fallen this day in Israel?

³⁹  and I to-day 'am' tender, and an anointed king: and these men, sons of Zeruiah, 'are' too hard for me; Jehovah doth recompense to the doer of the evil according to his evil.'
