Parallel
2 Samuel 18:12
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
εἶπεν δὲ ὁ άνὴρ πρὸς Ἰωάβ Καὶ ἐγώ εἰμι ἴστημι ἐπὶ τὰς χεῖράς μου χιλίους σίκλους ἀργυρίου, οὐ μὴ ἐπιβάλω χεὶρά μου ἐπὶ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ βασιλέως· ὄτι ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶν ἡμῶν ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεὺς σοὶ καὶ Ἀβειςὰ καὶ τῷ Ἐθθεὶ λέγων φυλάξατέ μοι τὸ παιδάριον τὸν Αβεσσαλώμ,
The man replied, “Even if a thousand shekels of silver (note: 1,000 shekels is approximately 25.1 pounds or 11.4 kilograms of silver.) were weighed out into my hands, I would not raise my hand against the son of the king. For we heard the king command you and Abishai and Ittai, ‘Protect the young man Absalom for my sake.’
