*
And David sat between the two gates sha #
ar #:
and the watchman went up to the roof over the gate unto the wall ,
and lifted up his eyes ,
and looked ,
and behold a man running alone .
*
And the watchman cried ,
and told the king .
And the king said ,
If he be alone ,
there is tidings in his mouth .
And he came apace ,
and drew near .
*
And the watchman saw another man running :
and the watchman called unto the porter show #
er #,
and said ,
Behold another man running alone .
And the king said ,
He also bringeth tidings .
*
And the watchman said ,
Me thinketh the running of the foremost is like the running of Ahimaaz #
Achiyma #
ats #
the son of Zadok .
And the king said ,
He is a good man ,
and cometh with good tidings .
*
And Ahimaaz #
Achiyma #
ats #
called ,
and said unto the king ,
All is well .
And he fell down to the earth upon his face before the king ,
and said ,
Blessed be the LORD thy God ,
which hath delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king .
*
And the king said ,
Is the young man Absalom safe ?
And Ahimaaz #
Achiyma #
ats #
answered ,
When Joab sent the kings servant ,
and me thy servant ,
I saw a great tumult ,
but I knew not what it was .
*
And the king said unto him ,
Turn aside ,
and stand here .
And he turned aside ,
and stood still .
*
And ,
behold ,
Cushi came ;
and Cushi said ,
Tidings ,
my lord the king :
for the LORD hath avenged thee this day of all them that rose up against thee .
*
And the king said unto Cushi ,
Is the young man Absalom safe ?
And Cushi answered ,
The enemies of my lord the king ,
and all that rise against thee to do thee hurt ,
be as that young man is .
