12. 2 Samuel 13:33 (2×)הַמֶּ֤לֶךְ · the king; הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ · of the king

    “Please,” she replied, “may the king invoke the LORD your God to prevent the avenger of blood from increasing the devastation, so that my son may not be destroyed!” “As surely as the LORD lives,” he vowed, “not a hair of your son’s head will fall to the ground.”
25. 2 Samuel 14:12הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ · the king

    The woman asked, “Why have you devised a thing like this against the people of God? When the king says this, does he not convict himself, since he has not brought back his own banished son?

    Now therefore, I have come to present this matter to my lord the king because the people have made me afraid. Your servant thought, ‘I will speak to the king. Perhaps he will grant the request of his maidservant.
28. 2 Samuel 14:16הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ · the king
    For the king will hear and deliver his maidservant from the hand of the man who would cut off both me and my son from God’s inheritance.’

    So the king asked, “Is the hand of Joab behind all this?” The woman answered, “As surely as you live, my lord the king, no one can turn to the right or to the left from anything that my lord the king says. Yes, your servant Joab is the one who gave me orders; he told your maidservant exactly what to say.
32. 2 Samuel 14:21הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ · Then the king
    Then the king said to Joab, “I hereby grant this request. Go, bring back the young man Absalom.”
