1
And it was told [5046] Joab, [3097] Behold, the king [4428] weepeth [1058] and mourneth [0056] for Absalom. [0053]
2
And the victory [8668] that day [3117] was [turned] into mourning [0060] unto all the people: [5971] for the people [5971] heard [8085] say [0559] that day [3117] how the king [4428] was grieved [6087] for his son. [1121]
3
And the people [5971] gat [0935] them by stealth [1589] that day [3117] into the city, [5892] as people [5971] being ashamed [3637] steal away [1589] when they flee [5127] in battle. [4421]
4
But the king [4428] covered [3813] his face, [6440] and the king [4428] cried [2199] with a loud [1419] voice, [6963] O my son [1121] Absalom, [0053] O Absalom, [0053] my son, [1121] my son! [1121]
5
And Joab [3097] came [0935] into the house [1004] to the king, [4428] and said, [0559] Thou hast shamed [3001] this day [3117] the faces [6440] of all thy servants, [5650] which this day [3117] have saved [4422] thy life, [5315] and the lives [5315] of thy sons [1121] and of thy daughters, [1323] and the lives [5315] of thy wives, [0802] and the lives [5315] of thy concubines; [6370]
6
In that thou lovest [0157] thine enemies, [8130] and hatest [8130] thy friends. [0157] For thou hast declared [5046] this day, [3117] that thou regardest neither princes [8269] nor servants: [5650] for this day [3117] I perceive, [3045] that if [3863] Absalom [0053] had lived, [2416] and all we had died [4191] this day, [3117] then it had pleased [3477] [5869] thee well.
7
Now therefore arise, [6965] go forth, [3318] and speak [1696] comfortably [3820] unto thy servants: [5650] for I swear [7650] by the LORD, [3068] if thou go not forth, [3318] there will not tarry [3885] one [0376] with thee this night: [3915] and that will be worse [7489] unto thee than all the evil [7451] that befell [0935] thee from thy youth [5271] until now.
8
Then the king [4428] arose, [6965] and sat [3427] in the gate. [8179] And they told [5046] unto all the people, [5971] saying, [0559] Behold, the king [4428] doth sit [3427] in the gate. [8179] And all the people [5971] came [0935] before [6440] the king: [4428] for Israel [3478] had fled [5127] every man [0376] to his tent. [0168]
9
And all the people [5971] were at strife [1777] throughout all the tribes [7626] of Israel, [3478] saying, [0559] The king [4428] saved [5337] us out of the hand [3709] of our enemies, [0341] and he delivered [4422] us out of the hand [3709] of the Philistines; [6430] and now he is fled [1272] out of the land [0776] for Absalom. [0053]
10
And Absalom, [0053] whom we anointed [4886] over us, is dead [4191] in battle. [4421] Now therefore why speak ye not a word [2790] of bringing the king [4428] back? [7725]
11
And king [4428] David [1732] sent [7971] to Zadok [6659] and to Abiathar [0054] the priests, [3548] saying, [0559] Speak [1696] unto the elders [2205] of Judah, [3063] saying, [0559] Why are ye the last [0314] to bring the king [4428] back [7725] to his house? [1004] seeing the speech [1697] of all Israel [3478] is come [0935] to the king, [4428] [even] to his house. [1004]
12
Ye [are] my brethren, [0251] ye [are] my bones [6106] and my flesh: [1320] wherefore then are ye the last [0314] to bring back [7725] the king? [4428]
13
And say [0559] ye to Amasa, [6021] [Art] thou not of my bone, [6106] and of my flesh? [1320] God [0430] do [6213] so to me, and more [3254] also, if thou be not captain [8269] of the host [6635] before [6440] me continually [3605] [3117] in the room [8478] of Joab. [3097]
14
And he bowed [5186] the heart [3824] of all the men [0376] of Judah, [3063] even as [the heart of] one [0259] man; [0376] so that they sent [7971] [this word] unto the king, [4428] Return [7725] thou, and all thy servants. [5650]
15
So the king [4428] returned, [7725] and came [0935] to Jordan. [3383] And Judah [3063] came [0935] to Gilgal, [1537] to go [3212] to meet [7125] the king, [4428] to conduct the king [4428] over [5674] Jordan. [3383]
16
And Shimei [8096] the son [1121] of Gera, [1617] a Benjamite, [1145] which [was] of Bahurim, [0980] hasted [4116] and came down [3381] with the men [0376] of Judah [3063] to meet [7125] king [4428] David. [1732]
17
And [there were] a thousand [0505] men [0376] of Benjamin [1144] with him, and Ziba [6717] the servant [5288] of the house [1004] of Saul, [7586] and his fifteen [2568] [6240] sons [1121] and his twenty [6242] servants [5650] with him; and they went over [6743] Jordan [3383] before [6440] the king. [4428]
18
And there went over [5674] a ferry boat [5679] to carry over [5674] the king's [4428] household, [1004] and to do [6213] what he thought [5869] good. [2896] And Shimei [8096] the son [1121] of Gera [1617] fell down [5307] before [6440] the king, [4428] as he was come over [5674] Jordan; [3383]
19
And said [0559] unto the king, [4428] Let not my lord [0113] impute [2803] iniquity [5771] unto me, neither do thou remember [2142] that which thy servant [5650] did perversely [5753] the day [3117] that my lord [0113] the king [4428] went out [3318] of Jerusalem, [3389] that the king [4428] should take [7760] it to his heart. [3820]
20
For thy servant [5650] doth know [3045] that I have sinned: [2398] therefore, behold, I am come [0935] the first [7223] this day [3117] of all the house [1004] of Joseph [3130] to go down [3381] to meet [7125] my lord [0113] the king. [4428]
21
But Abishai [0052] the son [1121] of Zeruiah [6870] answered [6030] and said, [0559] Shall not Shimei [8096] be put to death [4191] for this, because he cursed [7043] the LORD'S [3068] anointed? [4899]
22
And David [1732] said, [0559] What have I to do with you, ye sons [1121] of Zeruiah, [6870] that ye should this day [3117] be adversaries [7854] unto me? shall there any man [0376] be put to death [4191] this day [3117] in Israel? [3478] for do not I know [3045] that I [am] this day [3117] king [4428] over Israel? [3478]
23
Therefore the king [4428] said [0559] unto Shimei, [8096] Thou shalt not die. [4191] And the king [4428] sware [7650] unto him.
24
And Mephibosheth [4648] the son [1121] of Saul [7586] came down [3381] to meet [7125] the king, [4428] and had neither [3808] dressed [6213] his feet, [7272] nor [3808] trimmed [6213] his beard, [8222] nor [3808] washed [3526] his clothes, [0899] from the day [3117] the king [4428] departed [3212] until the day [3117] he came [0935] [again] in peace. [7965]
25
And it came to pass, when he was come [0935] to Jerusalem [3389] to meet [7125] the king, [4428] that the king [4428] said [0559] unto him, Wherefore wentest [1980] not thou with me, Mephibosheth? [4648]
26
And he answered, [0559] My lord, [0113] O king, [4428] my servant [5650] deceived [7411] me: for thy servant [5650] said, [0559] I will saddle [2280] me an ass, [2543] that I may ride [7392] thereon, and go [3212] to the king; [4428] because thy servant [5650] [is] lame. [6455]
27
And he hath slandered [7270] thy servant [5650] unto my lord [0113] the king; [4428] but my lord [0113] the king [4428] [is] as an angel [4397] of God: [0430] do [6213] therefore [what is] good [2896] in thine eyes. [5869]
28
For all [of] my father's [0001] house [1004] were but [3808] dead [4194] men [0582] before my lord [0113] the king: [4428] yet didst thou set [7896] thy servant [5650] among them that did eat [0398] at thine own table. [7979] What right [6666] therefore have [3426] I yet to cry [2199] any more unto the king? [4428]
29
And the king [4428] said [0559] unto him, Why speakest [1696] thou any more of thy matters? [1697] I have said, [0559] Thou and Ziba [6717] divide [2505] the land. [7704]
30
And Mephibosheth [4648] said [0559] unto the king, [4428] Yea, let him take [3947] all, forasmuch [0310] as [0834] my lord [0113] the king [4428] is come [0935] again in peace [7965] unto his own house. [1004]
31
And Barzillai [1271] the Gileadite [1569] came down [3381] from Rogelim, [7274] and went over [5674] Jordan [3383] with the king, [4428] to conduct [7971] him over Jordan. [3383]
32
Now Barzillai [1271] was a very [3966] aged [2204] man, [even] fourscore [8084] years [8141] old: [1121] and he had provided the king [4428] of sustenance [3557] while he lay [7871] at Mahanaim; [4266] for he [was] a very [3966] great [1419] man. [0376]
33
And the king [4428] said [0559] unto Barzillai, [1271] Come thou over [5674] with me, and I will feed [3557] thee with me in Jerusalem. [3389]
34
And Barzillai [1271] said [0559] unto the king, [4428] How long [3117] have I to live, [8141] [2416] that I should go up [5927] with the king [4428] unto Jerusalem? [3389]
35
I [am] this day [3117] fourscore [8084] years [8141] old: [1121] [and] can I discern [3045] between good [2896] and evil? [7451] can thy servant [5650] taste [2938] what [0834] I eat [0398] or what [0834] I drink? [8354] can I hear [8085] any more the voice [6963] of singing [7891] men and singing [7891] women? wherefore then should thy servant [5650] be yet a burden [4853] unto my lord [0113] the king? [4428]
36
Thy servant [5650] will go a little [4592] way over [5674] Jordan [3383] with the king: [4428] and why should the king [4428] recompense [1580] it me with such a reward? [1578]
37
Let thy servant, [5650] I pray thee, turn back again, [7725] that I may die [4191] in mine own city, [5892] [and be buried] by the grave [6913] of my father [0001] and of my mother. [0517] But behold thy servant [5650] Chimham; [3643] let him go over [5674] with my lord [0113] the king; [4428] and do [6213] to him what shall seem good [2896] [5869] unto thee.
38
And the king [4428] answered, [0559] Chimham [3643] shall go over [5674] with me, and I will do [6213] to him that which shall seem good [2896] [5869] unto thee: and whatsoever thou shalt require [0977] of me, [that] will I do [6213] for thee.
39
And all the people [5971] went over [5674] Jordan. [3383] And when the king [4428] was come over, [5674] the king [4428] kissed [5401] Barzillai, [1271] and blessed [1288] him; and he returned [7725] unto his own place. [4725]
40
Then the king [4428] went on [5674] to Gilgal, [1537] and Chimham [3643] went on [5674] with him: and all the people [5971] of Judah [3063] conducted [5674] the king, [4428] and also half [2677] the people [5971] of Israel. [3478]
41
And, behold, all the men [0376] of Israel [3478] came [0935] to the king, [4428] and said [0559] unto the king, [4428] Why have our brethren [0251] the men [0376] of Judah [3063] stolen thee away, [1589] and have brought [5674] the king, [4428] and his household, [1004] and all David's [1732] men [0582] with him, over Jordan? [3383]
42
And all the men [0376] of Judah [3063] answered [6030] the men [0376] of Israel, [3478] Because the king [4428] [is] near of kin [7138] to us: wherefore then be ye angry [2734] for this matter? [1697] have we eaten [0398] at all [0398] of the king's [4428] [cost]? or hath he given [5375] us any gift? [5379]
43
And the men [0376] of Israel [3478] answered [6030] the men [0376] of Judah, [3063] and said, [0559] We have ten [6235] parts [3027] in the king, [4428] and we [0589] have also more [right] in David [1732] than ye: why then did ye despise [7043] us, that our advice [1697] should not be first [7223] had in bringing back [7725] our king? [4428] And the words [1697] of the men [0376] of Judah [3063] were fiercer [7185] than the words [1697] of the men [0376] of Israel. [3478]
