18:31 Then the Cushite arrived and said , “May my lord the king now receive the good news ! The Lord has vindicated you today and delivered you from the hand of all who have rebelled against you!”
18:32 The king asked the Cushite , “How is the young man Absalom ?” The Cushite replied , “May the enemies of my lord the king and all who have plotted against you be like that young man !”
18:33 The king then became very upset . He went up to the upper room over the gate and wept . As he went he said , “My son , Absalom ! My son , my son , Absalom ! If only I could have died in your place ! Absalom , my son , my son !”
