Exegesis
Finally, the clause ve-hammēleḵ wə-kisʾô nāqqî {וְהַמֶּלֶךְ וְכִסְא֖וֹ נָקִֽי | wəhammēleḵ wəkiśʾô nāqqî} links king and throne as moral subjects, with the adjective nakkî affirming cleanness and legal innocence. The balanced parallelism underscores her voluntary acceptance of blame juxtaposed with the king’s declared blamelessness.
In context — 2 Samuel 14:9
The woman of Tekoa said to the king, “May the guilt be on me and on my father’s house; but the king and his throne shall be innocent .”
