2 Samuel3:28
28 ¶ And afterward when David heard it, he said , I and my kingdom are guiltless before the LORD for ever, from the blood of Abner the son of Ner:
Publickly before his Courtiers and People; and seriously as in Gods presence.
I call the Lord to Witness, that this was not done by my Instigation or Authority, or by any publick Counsel, but onely by Ioab's malice; and therefore I trust that God will not punish me nor my Kingdom, but Ioab onely.
