Have I to-day begun to inquire of God for him? be it far from me: let not the king impute anything unto his servant, nor to all the house of my father; for thy servant knoweth nothing of all this, less or more.

Is this the first time I have got directions from God for him? Far be the thought! let the king make no such statement against his servant or my father's family, for your servant has no knowledge, great or small, of this thing.

σημερον ηρχισα να ερωτω τον Θεον περι αυτου; μη γενοιτο· ας μη αναθεση ο βασιλευς μηδεν επι τον δουλον αυτου μηδε επι παντα τον οικον του πατρος μου· διοτι ο δουλος σου δεν εξευρει ουδεν περι παντων τουτων, ουτε μικρον ουτε μεγα.

Did I then begin to enquire of God for him? be it far from me: let not the king impute any thing unto his servant, nor to all the house of my father: for thy servant knew nothing of all this, less or more.
