2 Samuel 2:23

2 Samuel 3:8

Then was Abner very angry for the words of Ishbosheth, and said, "Am I a dog's head that belongs to Judah?

2 Samuel 11:19

2 Samuel 11:21

who struck Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? Didn't a woman cast an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died at Thebez? Why did you go so near the wall?' then you shall say, 'Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.'"

2 Samuel 12:2

The servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and every man got up on his mule, and fled.

2 Samuel 14:4

When the woman of Tekoa spoke to the king, she fell on her face to the ground, and did obeisance, and said, "Help, O king!"

2 Samuel 14:8

The king said to the woman, "Go to your house, and I will give a command concerning you."

The king said, "Is the hand of Joab with you in all this?" The woman answered, "As your soul lives, my lord the king, no one can turn to the right hand or to the left from anything that my lord the king has spoken; for your servant Joab, he urged me, and he put all these words in the mouth of your handmaid;

2 Samuel 15:3

Absalom said to him, "Behold, your matters are good and right; but there is no man deputized by the king to hear you."
