They’ll say to the Lord,“ We didn’t kill that person. We didn’t see it happen.

Yahweh has returned on you all the blood of Saul’s house, in whose place you have reigned! Yahweh has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son! Behold, you are caught by your own mischief, because you are a man of blood!”

Yahweh, my God, if I have done this, if there is iniquity in my hands,if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me( yes, I have delivered him who without cause was my adversary),

Who will declare his way to his face? Who will repay him what he has done?Yet he will be borne to the grave. Men will keep watch over the tomb.The clods of the valley will be sweet to him. All men will draw after him, as there were innumerable before him.So how can you comfort me with nonsense, because in your answers there remains only falsehood?”

For what does he care for his house after him, when the number of his months is cut off?“ Shall any teach God knowledge, since he judges those who are high?One dies in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet.
