But I, your servant, did not see the men my lord sent. 26 Now, my lord, as surely as the Lord lives and as you live, the Lord has kept you from shedding blood and avenging yourself with your own hand. May your enemies and those intent on harming my lord be as foolish as Nabal. 27 Now let this gift that your servant has brought to my lord be given to the young men who follow my lord. 28 Please forgive the offense of your servant, for the Lord will certainly make a lasting dynasty for my lord, because my lord fights the Lord’s battles, and no wrongdoing will be found in you as long as you live. 29 Even though someone pursues you to take your life, the life of my lord will be securely bound in the bundle of the living by the Lord your God. But the lives of your enemies he will hurl away as from the pocket of a sling. 30 When the Lord has fulfilled for my lord all the good things he promised and has appointed you ruler over Israel, 31 my lord will not have on his conscience the staggering burden of needless bloodshed or of having avenged himself. And when the Lord has brought my lord success, remember your servant.
  • 2 Sam 20:16-22 : 16 a wise woman called out from the city, "Listen! Listen! Tell Joab to come here so I can speak to him." 17 When he approached her, the woman asked, "Are you Joab?" "I am," he replied. She said, "Listen to what your servant has to say." "I’m listening," he said. 18 She continued, "In the past, people said, 'Seek advice in Abel,' and that is how matters were settled. 19 I am one of the peaceful and faithful in Israel. You are trying to destroy a city that is a mother in Israel. Why do you want to devour the LORD's inheritance?" 20 Joab replied, "Far be it from me to devour or destroy the city! 21 That is not the case. A man named Sheba, son of Bichri, from the hill country of Ephraim, has raised his hand against King David. Hand him over, and I will withdraw from the city." The woman said to Joab, "His head will be thrown to you from the wall." 22 Then the woman went to all the people with her wise counsel, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bichri and threw it to Joab. He blew the horn, and the troops dispersed from the city, each returning to his home. And Joab went back to the king in Jerusalem.

Therefore, My wrath is kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched.’ 18 As for the king of Judah who sent you to inquire of the LORD, you shall say to him: ‘Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Regarding the words you have heard, 19 Because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard what I spoke against this place and its inhabitants—that they would become a desolation and a curse—and because you tore your clothes and wept before Me, I also have heard you, declares the LORD. 20 Therefore, behold, I will gather you to your ancestors, and you will be buried in peace. Your eyes will not see all the disaster that I am going to bring upon this place.’” Then they brought back word to the king.

If we had merely been sold as slaves, I would have remained silent, because no harm to the king would justify disturbing him in this way." 5 King Ahasuerus asked Queen Esther, "Who is he, and where is the one who has dared to do this?" 6 Esther said, "The adversary and enemy is this vile Haman."
