Jochebed
You may and you must, since her life is at stake.
Ahab
Do you believe I should do rightly to summon Jeremiah without awaiting her command?
Jochebed
By God’s mercy I believe it. Thus will you save her alive.
God be praised, Jochebed. In my sore need I have already done what you wish.
Jochebed
A blessing on you therefor!
