1

And David [1732] numbered [6485] the people [5971] that [were] with him, and set [7760] captains [8269] of thousands [0505] and captains [8269] of hundreds [3967] over them.

2

And David [1732] sent forth [7971] a third part [7992] of the people [5971] under the hand [3027] of Joab, [3097] and a third part [7992] under the hand [3027] of Abishai [0052] the son [1121] of Zeruiah, [6870] Joab's [3097] brother, [0251] and a third part [7992] under the hand [3027] of Ittai [0863] the Gittite. [1663] And the king [4428] said [0559] unto the people, [5971] I will surely [3318] go forth [3318] with you myself [0589] also.

3

But the people [5971] answered, [0559] Thou shalt not go forth: [3318] for if we flee [5127] away, [5127] they will not care [7760] [3820] for us; neither if half [2677] of us die, [4191] will they care [7760] [3820] for us: but now [thou art] worth [3644] ten [6235] thousand [0505] of us: therefore now [it is] better [2896] that thou succour [5826] us out of the city. [5892]

4

And the king [4428] said [0559] unto them, What seemeth [5869] you best [3190] I will do. [6213] And the king [4428] stood [5975] by the gate [8179] side, [3027] and all the people [5971] came out [3318] by hundreds [3967] and by thousands. [0505]

5

And the king [4428] commanded [6680] Joab [3097] and Abishai [0052] and Ittai, [0863] saying, [0559] [Deal] gently [0328] for my sake with the young man, [5288] [even] with Absalom. [0053] And all the people [5971] heard [8085] when the king [4428] gave all the captains [8269] charge [6680] concerning [1697] Absalom. [0053]

6

So the people [5971] went out [3318] into the field [7704] against [7125] Israel: [3478] and the battle [4421] was in the wood [3293] of Ephraim; [0669]

7

Where the people [5971] of Israel [3478] were slain [5062] before [6440] the servants [5650] of David, [1732] and there was there a great [1419] slaughter [4046] that day [3117] of twenty [6242] thousand [0505] [men].

8

For the battle [4421] was there scattered [6327] over the face [6440] of all the country: [0776] and the wood [3293] devoured [0398] more [7235] people [5971] that day [3117] than the sword [2719] devoured. [0398]

9

And Absalom [0053] met [7122] the servants [6440] [5650] of David. [1732] And Absalom [0053] rode [7392] upon a mule, [6505] and the mule [6505] went [0935] under the thick boughs [7730] of a great [1419] oak, [0424] and his head [7218] caught hold [2388] of the oak, [0424] and he was taken up [5414] between the heaven [8064] and the earth; [0776] and the mule [6505] that [was] under him went away. [5674]

10

And a certain [0259] man [0376] saw [7200] [it], and told [5046] Joab, [3097] and said, [0559] Behold, I saw [7200] Absalom [0053] hanged [8518] in an oak. [0424]

11

And Joab [3097] said [0559] unto the man [0376] that told [5046] him, And, behold, thou sawest [7200] [him], and why didst thou not smite [5221] him there to the ground? [0776] and I would have given [5414] thee ten [6235] [shekels] of silver, [3701] and a [0259] girdle. [2290]

12

And the man [0376] said [0559] unto Joab, [3097] Though [3863] I should receive [8254] a thousand [0505] [shekels] of silver [3701] in mine hand, [3709] [yet] would I not put forth [7971] mine hand [3027] against the king's [4428] son: [1121] for in our hearing [0241] the king [4428] charged [6680] thee and Abishai [0052] and Ittai, [0863] saying, [0559] Beware [8104] that none [touch] the young man [5288] Absalom. [0053]

13

Otherwise [0176] I should have wrought [6213] falsehood [8267] against mine own life: [5315] for there is no matter [1697] hid [3582] from the king, [4428] and thou thyself wouldest have set [3320] thyself against [me].

14

Then said [0559] Joab, [3097] I may not tarry [3176] thus with [6440] thee. And he took [3947] three [7969] darts [7626] in his hand, [3709] and thrust [8628] them through the heart [3820] of Absalom, [0053] while he [was] yet alive [2416] in the midst [3820] of the oak. [0424]

15

And ten [6235] young men [5288] that bare [5375] Joab's [3097] armour [3627] compassed about [5437] and smote [5221] Absalom, [0053] and slew [4191] him.

16

And Joab [3097] blew [8628] the trumpet, [7782] and the people [5971] returned [7725] from pursuing [7291] after [0310] Israel: [3478] for Joab [3097] held back [2820] the people. [5971]

17

And they took [3947] Absalom, [0053] and cast [7993] him into a great [1419] pit [6354] in the wood, [3293] and laid [5324] a very [3966] great [1419] heap [1530] of stones [0068] upon him: and all Israel [3478] fled [5127] every one [0376] to his tent. [0168]

18

Now Absalom [0053] in his lifetime [2416] had taken [3947] and reared up [5324] for himself a pillar, [4678] which [is] in the king's [4428] dale: [6010] for he said, [0559] I have no son [1121] to keep my name [8034] in remembrance: [2142] and he called [7121] the pillar [4678] after his own name: [8034] and it is called [7121] unto this day, [3117] Absalom's [0053] place. [3027]

19

Then said [0559] Ahimaaz [0290] the son [1121] of Zadok, [6659] Let me now run, [7323] and bear the king [4428] tidings, [1319] how that the LORD [3068] hath avenged [8199] him [3027] of his enemies. [0341]

20

And Joab [3097] said [0559] unto him, Thou shalt not bear tidings [1309] [0376] this day, [3117] but thou shalt bear tidings [1319] another [0312] day: [3117] but this day [3117] thou shalt bear no tidings, [1319] because the king's [4428] son [1121] is dead. [4191]

21

Then said [0559] Joab [3097] to Cushi, [3569] Go [3212] tell [5046] the king [4428] what thou hast seen. [7200] And Cushi [3569] bowed [7812] himself unto Joab, [3097] and ran. [7323]

22

Then said [0559] Ahimaaz [0290] the son [1121] of Zadok [6659] yet again [3254] to Joab, [3097] But howsoever, [4100] let me, I pray thee, also run [7323] after [0310] Cushi. [3569] And Joab [3097] said, [0559] Wherefore wilt thou run, [7323] my son, [1121] seeing that thou hast no tidings [1309] ready? [4672]

23

But howsoever, [said he], let me run. [7323] And he said [0559] unto him, Run. [7323] Then Ahimaaz [0290] ran [7323] by the way [1870] of the plain, [3603] and overran [5674] Cushi. [3569]

24

And David [1732] sat [3427] between the two [8147] gates: [8179] and the watchman [6822] went up [3212] to the roof [1406] over the gate [8179] unto the wall, [2346] and lifted up [5375] his eyes, [5869] and looked, [7200] and behold a man [0376] running [7323] alone.

25

And the watchman [6822] cried, [7121] and told [5046] the king. [4428] And the king [4428] said, [0559] If he [be] alone, [there is] tidings [1309] in his mouth. [6310] And he came [3212] apace, [1980] and drew near. [7131]

26

And the watchman [6822] saw [7200] another [0312] man [0376] running: [7323] and the watchman [6822] called [7121] unto the porter, [7778] and said, [0559] Behold [another] man [0376] running [7323] alone. And the king [4428] said, [0559] He also bringeth tidings. [1319]

27

And the watchman [6822] said, [0559] Me thinketh [7200] the running [4794] of the foremost [7223] is like the running [4794] of Ahimaaz [0290] the son [1121] of Zadok. [6659] And the king [4428] said, [0559] He [is] a good [2896] man, [0376] and cometh [0935] with good [2896] tidings. [1309]

28

And Ahimaaz [0290] called, [7121] and said [0559] unto the king, [4428] All is well. [7965] And he fell down [7812] to the earth [0776] upon his face [0639] before the king, [4428] and said, [0559] Blessed [1288] [be] the LORD [3068] thy God, [0430] which hath delivered up [5462] the men [0582] that lifted up [5375] their hand [3027] against my lord [0113] the king. [4428]

29

And the king [4428] said, [0559] Is the young man [5288] Absalom [0053] safe? [7965] And Ahimaaz [0290] answered, [0559] When Joab [3097] sent [7971] the king's [4428] servant, [5650] and [me] thy servant, [5650] I saw [7200] a great [1419] tumult, [1995] but I knew [3045] not what [it was].

30

And the king [4428] said [0559] [unto him], Turn aside, [5437] [and] stand [3320] here. [3541] And he turned aside, [5437] and stood still. [5975]

31

And, behold, Cushi [3569] came; [0935] and Cushi [3569] said, [0559] Tidings, [1319] my lord [0113] the king: [4428] for the LORD [3068] hath avenged [8199] thee [3027] this day [3117] of all them that rose up [6965] against thee.

32

And the king [4428] said [0559] unto Cushi, [3569] Is the young man [5288] Absalom [0053] safe? [7965] And Cushi [3569] answered, [0559] The enemies [0341] of my lord [0113] the king, [4428] and all that rise [6965] against thee to do [thee] hurt, [7451] be as [that] young man [5288] [is].

33

And the king [4428] was much moved, [7264] and went up [5927] to the chamber [5944] over the gate, [8179] and wept: [1058] and as he went, [3212] thus he said, [0559] O my son [1121] Absalom, [0053] my son, [1121] my son [1121] Absalom! [0053] would God [5414] I had died [4191] for thee, O Absalom, [0053] my son, [1121] my son! [1121]
