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.
De lo contrario, habría estado engañándome a mí mismo y arriesgando mi propia vida, porque nada se le oculta al rey, y tú mismo te habrías puesto en mi contra.
El soldado reconoce que desobedecer al rey sería autodestrucción, ya que nada escapa a su conocimiento.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This verse comes from the story of Absalom's rebellion against his father King David. A soldier is speaking to Joab (David's military commander) about why he wouldn't kill Absalom even for money, knowing that David had commanded his men to deal gently with his son. The soldier understands that David's intelligence network would discover any deception, and that loyalty to the king's wishes was paramount.
