gltv - 2Samuel:18:19-19:8

gltv@2Samuel:18:19 @ And Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said, Please let me run, and I will bear news to the king. For Jehovah has vindicated him from the hand of his enemies.

gltv@2Samuel:18:20 @ And Joab said to him, You are not a man of tidings today. But you shall bear tidings another day. And today you shall not bear tidings, because the king's son is dead.

gltv@2Samuel:18:21 @ And Joab said to Cushi, Go, tell the king that which you have seen. And Cushi bowed to Joab, and ran.

gltv@2Samuel:18:22 @ And Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said yet again to Joab, Yet whatever may be, please let me run after the Cushite, I also. And Joab said, Why is this that you are running, my son? Also for you there are no tidings found.

gltv@2Samuel:18:23 @ And he said, Yet whatever it may be, let me run. And he said to him, Run. And Ahimaaz ran the way of the circuit and passed by the Cushite.

gltv@2Samuel:18:24 @ And David was sitting between the two gates. And the watchman went to the roof of the gate and lifted up his eyes, and looked. And, behold, a man running by himself!

gltv@2Samuel:18:25 @ And the watchman called and told the king. And the king said, If he is by himself, tidings are in his mouth. And he came, coming on, and drawing near.

gltv@2Samuel:18:26 @ And the watchman saw another man running. And the watchman called to the gatekeeper and said, Behold, a man running by himself! And the king said, Also this one is bearing tidings.

gltv@2Samuel:18:27 @ And the watchman said, I see the running of the first as the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok. And the king said, This is a good man and he comes with good news.

gltv@2Samuel:18:28 @ And Ahimaaz called and said to the king, Peace! And he bowed on his face to the earth to the king and said, Blessed be Jehovah your God who has shut up the men who lifted up their hand against my lord the king.

gltv@2Samuel:18:29 @ And the king said, Peace to the young man, to Absalom? And Ahimaaz said, I saw the great tumult, at the sending away of the servant of the king, even your servant sent by Joab, but I do not know what.

gltv@2Samuel:18:30 @ And the king said, Turn aside, stand here. And he turned aside and stood.

gltv@2Samuel:18:31 @ And, behold, the Cushite had come. And the Cushite said, News is borne, m y lord, O king! For Jehovah has vindicated you today out of the hand of those rising up against you.

gltv@2Samuel:18:32 @ And the king said to the Cushite, Peace to the young man, to Absalom? And the Cushite said, Let them be as the young man, the enemies of my lord the king, and all who have risen up against you for evil.

gltv@2Samuel:18:33 @ And the king trembled. And he went up to the upper room of the gate and wept. And he said this as he went, My son! My son Absalom! My son Absalom! Oh that I had died instead of you, my son Absalom, my son!

gltv@2Samuel:19:1 @ And it was announced to Joab, Behold, the king is weeping and mourning over Absalom.

gltv@2Samuel:19:2 @ And the deliverance on that day became mourning to all the people, for the people had heard on that day, saying, The king is grieving for his son.

gltv@2Samuel:19:3 @ And the people stole away on that day to go into the city, as the people steal away who are ashamed as they flee in battle.

gltv@2Samuel:19:4 @ And the king had covered his face. Yea, the king cried with a loud voice, My son Absalom! Absalom my son, my son!

gltv@2Samuel:19:5 @ And Joab came in to the king to the house, and said, You have put to shame today the faces of all your servants, those delivering your life today, and the life of your sons, and of your daughters, and the life of your wives, and the life of your concubines,

gltv@2Samuel:19:6 @ by loving those who hate you, and by hating those who love you, for you have declared today that there are no leaders nor servants to you. For I know today that if Absalom were alive and all of us dead today, that it would be right in your eyes.

gltv@2Samuel:19:7 @ And now rise up; go out and speak to the heart of your servants. For I have sworn by Jehovah that if you do not go out, not a man shall remain with you tonight. And this would be worse for you than all the evil that has come on you from your youth until now.

gltv@2Samuel:19:8 @ And the king rose up and sat in the gate. And they announced it to all the people, saying, Behold, the king is sitting in the gate. And all the people came in before the king. And Israel had fled, each one to his tents.
