What does 2 Samuel 18:13 mean?
ESV: On the other hand, if I had dealt treacherously against his life (and there is nothing hidden from the king), then you yourself would have stood aloof."
NIV: And if I had put my life in jeopardy —and nothing is hidden from the king—you would have kept your distance from me."
NASB: Otherwise, if I had dealt treacherously against his life (and there is nothing hidden from the king), then you yourself would have avoided me.'
CSB: If I had jeopardized my own life—and nothing is hidden from the king—you would have abandoned me."
NLT: And if I had betrayed the king by killing his son — and the king would certainly find out who did it — you yourself would be the first to abandon me.'
KJV: Otherwise I should have wrought falsehood against mine own life: for there is no matter hid from the king, and thou thyself wouldest have set thyself against me.
NKJV: Otherwise I would have dealt falsely against my own life. For there is nothing hidden from the king, and you yourself would have set yourself against me.
