2 Samuel 3:39

And I [am] this day weak, though anointed king; and these men the sons of Zeruiah [be] too hard for me: the LORD shall reward the doer of evil according to his wickedness.

And I am this day {H3117} weak {H7390}, though anointed {H4886} king {H4428}; and these men {H582} the sons {H1121} of Zeruiah {H6870} be too hard {H7186} for me: the LORD {H3068} shall reward {H7999} the doer of evil {H6213} according to his wickedness {H7451}.

Even though I have just been anointed king, I feel weak today; and these men, the sons of Tz'ruyah, are too brutal for me. May ADONAI repay the criminal as his crime deserves!"

And I am weak this day, though anointed as king, and these men, the sons of Zeruiah, are too fierce for me. May the LORD repay the evildoer according to his evil!”

And I am this day weak, though anointed king; and these men the sons of Zeruiah are too hard for me: Jehovah reward the evil-doer according to his wickedness.
