2 Samuel 15:5-37

And it was [so], that when any man
<0376>
came nigh
<07126> (8800)
[to him] to do him obeisance
<07812> (8692)_,
he put forth
<07971> (8804)
his hand
<03027>_,
and took
<02388> (8689)
him, and kissed
<05401> (8804)
him.
And on this manner
<01697>
did
<06213> (8799)
Absalom
<053>
to all Israel
<03478>
that came
<0935> (8799)
to the king
<04428>
for judgment
<04941>_:
so Absalom
<053>
stole
<01589> (8762)
the hearts
<03820>
of the men
<0582>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And it came to pass after
<07093>
forty
<0705>
years
<08141>_,
that Absalom
<053>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
I pray thee, let me go
<03212> (8799)
and pay
<07999> (8762)
my vow
<05088>_,
which I have vowed
<05087> (8804)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
in Hebron
<02275>_.
For thy servant
<05650>
vowed
<05087> (8804)
a vow
<05088>
while I abode
<03427> (8800)
at Geshur
<01650>
in Syria
<0758>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
If the LORD
<03068>
shall bring me again
<07725> (8799) (8676) <07725> (8686)
indeed to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
then I will serve
<05647> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Go
<03212> (8798)
in peace
<07965>_.
So he arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
to Hebron
<02275>_.
But Absalom
<053>
sent
<07971> (8799)
spies
<07270> (8764)
throughout all the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
As soon as ye hear
<08085> (8800)
the sound
<06963>
of the trumpet
<07782>_,
then ye shall say
<0559> (8804)_,
Absalom
<053>
reigneth
<04427> (8804)
in Hebron
<02275>_.
And with Absalom
<053>
went
<01980> (8804)
two hundred
<03967>
men
<0376>
out of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
[that were] called
<07121> (8803)_;
and they went
<01980> (8802)
in their simplicity
<08537>_,
and they knew
<03045> (8804)
not any thing
<01697>_.
And Absalom
<053>
sent
<07971> (8799)
for Ahithophel
<0302>
the Gilonite
<01526>_,
David's
<01732>
counsellor
<03289> (8802)_,
from his city
<05892>_,
[even] from Giloh
<01542>_,
while he offered
<02076> (8800)
sacrifices
<02077>_.
And the conspiracy
<07195>
was strong
<0533>_;
for the people
<05971>
increased
<07227>
continually
<01980> (8802)
with Absalom
<053>_.
And there came
<0935> (8799)
a messenger
<05046> (8688)
to David
<01732>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The hearts
<03820>
of the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
are after
<0310>
Absalom
<053>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto all his servants
<05650>
that [were] with him at Jerusalem
<03389>_,
Arise
<06965> (8798)_,
and let us flee
<01272> (8799)_;
for we shall not [else] escape
<06413>
from
<06440>
Absalom
<053>_:
make speed
<04116> (8761)
to depart
<03212> (8800)_,
lest he overtake
<05381> (8689)
us suddenly
<04116> (8762)_,
and bring
<05080> (8689)
evil
<07451>
upon us, and smite
<05221> (8689)
the city
<05892>
with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_.
{bring: Heb. thrust}
And the king's
<04428>
servants
<05650>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
Behold, thy servants
<05650>
[are ready to do] whatsoever my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
shall appoint
<0977> (8799)_.
{appoint: Heb. choose}
And the king
<04428>
went forth
<03318> (8799)_,
and all his household
<01004>
after
<07272>
him. And the king
<04428>
left
<05800> (8799)
ten
<06235>
women
<0802>_,
[which were] concubines
<06370>_,
to keep
<08104> (8800)
the house
<01004>_.
{after...: Heb. at his feet}
And the king
<04428>
went forth
<03318> (8799)_,
and all the people
<05971>
after
<07272>
him, and tarried
<05975> (8799)
in a place
<01004>
that was far off
<04801> (8677) <01023>_.
And all his servants
<05650>
passed on
<05674> (8802)
beside
<03027>
him; and all the Cherethites
<03774>_,
and all the Pelethites
<06432>_,
and all the Gittites
<01663>_,
six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>
men
<0376>
which came
<0935> (8804)
after
<07272>
him from Gath
<01661>_,
passed on
<05674> (8802)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the king
<04428>
to Ittai
<0863>
the Gittite
<01663>_,
Wherefore goest
<03212> (8799)
thou also with us? return
<07725> (8798)
to thy place
<04725>_,
and abide
<03427> (8798)
with the king
<04428>_:
for thou [art] a stranger
<05237>_,
and also an exile
<01540> (8802)_.
Whereas thou camest
<0935> (8800)
[but] yesterday
<08543>_,
should I this day
<03117>
make thee go
<03212> (8800)
up and down
<05128> (8686) (8675) <05128> (8799)
with us? seeing I go
<01980> (8802)
whither I may, return
<07725> (8798)
thou, and take back
<07725> (8685)
thy brethren
<0251>_:
mercy
<02617>
and truth
<0571>
[be] with thee. {go up...: Heb. wander in going}
And Ittai
<0863>
answered
<06030> (8799)
the king
<04428>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
[As] the LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_,
and [as] my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
liveth
<02416>_,
surely in what place
<04725>
my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
shall be, whether in death
<04194>
or life
<02416>_,
even there also will thy servant
<05650>
be.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Ittai
<0863>_,
Go
<03212> (8798)
and pass over
<05674> (8798)_.
And Ittai
<0863>
the Gittite
<01663>
passed over
<05674> (8799)_,
and all his men
<0582>_,
and all the little ones
<02945>
that [were] with him.
And all the country
<0776>
wept
<01058> (8802)
with a loud
<01419>
voice
<06963>_,
and all the people
<05971>
passed over
<05674> (8802)_:
the king
<04428>
also himself passed over
<05674> (8802)
the brook
<05158>
Kidron
<06939>_,
and all the people
<05971>
passed over
<05674> (8802)_,
toward
<06440>
the way
<01870>
of the wilderness
<04057>_.
{Kidron: Gr. Cedron}
And lo Zadok
<06659>
also, and all the Levites
<03881>
[were] with him, bearing
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of God
<0430>_:
and they set down
<03332> (8686)
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>_;
and Abiathar
<054>
went up
<05927> (8799)_,
until all the people
<05971>
had done
<08552> (8800)
passing
<05674> (8800)
out of the city
<05892>_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Zadok
<06659>_,
Carry back
<07725> (8685)
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
into the city
<05892>_:
if I shall find
<04672> (8799)
favour
<02580>
in the eyes
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
he will bring me again
<07725> (8689)_,
and shew
<07200> (8689)
me [both] it, and his habitation
<05116>_:
But if he thus say
<0559> (8799)_,
I have no delight
<02654> (8804)
in thee; behold, [here am] I, let him do
<06213> (8799)
to me as seemeth
<05869>
good
<02896>
unto him.
The king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
also unto Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>_,
[Art not] thou a seer
<07200> (8802)_?
return
<07725> (8798)
into the city
<05892>
in peace
<07965>_,
and your two
<08147>
sons
<01121>
with you, Ahimaaz
<0290>
thy son
<01121>_,
and Jonathan
<03083>
the son
<01121>
of Abiathar
<054>_.
See
<07200> (8798)_,
I will tarry
<04102> (8700)
in the plain
<06160> (8675) <05679>
of the wilderness
<04057>_,
until there come
<0935> (8800)
word
<01697>
from you to certify
<05046> (8687)
me.
Zadok
<06659>
therefore and Abiathar
<054>
carried
<07725> (0)
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
again
<07725> (8686)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_:
and they tarried
<03427> (8799)
there.
And David
<01732>
went up
<05927> (8802)
by the ascent
<04608>
of [mount] Olivet
<02132>_,
and wept
<01058> (8802)
as he went up
<05927> (8802)_,
and had his head
<07218>
covered
<02645> (8802)_,
and he went
<01980> (8802)
barefoot
<03182>_:
and all the people
<05971>
that [was] with him covered
<02645> (8804)
every man
<0376>
his head
<07218>_,
and they went up
<05927> (8804)_,
weeping
<01058> (8800)
as they went up
<05927> (8800)_.
{and wept...: Heb. going up and weeping}
And [one] told
<05046> (8689)
David
<01732>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ahithophel
<0302>
[is] among the conspirators
<07194> (8802)
with Absalom
<053>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
I pray thee, turn the counsel
<06098>
of Ahithophel
<0302>
into foolishness
<05528> (8761)_.
And it came to pass, that [when] David
<01732>
was come
<0935> (8804)
to the top
<07218>
[of the mount], where he worshipped
<07812> (8691)
God
<0430>_,
behold, Hushai
<02365>
the Archite
<0757>
came to meet
<07125> (8800)
him with his coat
<03801>
rent
<07167> (8803)_,
and earth
<0127>
upon his head
<07218>_:
Unto whom David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
If thou passest on
<05674> (8804)
with me, then thou shalt be a burden
<04853>
unto me:
But if thou return
<07725> (8799)
to the city
<05892>_,
and say
<0559> (8804)
unto Absalom
<053>_,
I will be thy servant
<05650>_,
O king
<04428>_;
[as] I [have been] thy father's
<01>
servant
<05650>
hitherto
<0227>_,
so [will] I now also [be] thy servant
<05650>_:
then mayest thou for me defeat
<06565> (8689)
the counsel
<06098>
of Ahithophel
<0302>_.
And [hast thou] not there with thee Zadok
<06659>
and Abiathar
<054>
the priests
<03548>_?
therefore it shall be, [that] what thing
<01697>
soever thou shalt hear
<08085> (8799)
out of the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
thou shalt tell
<05046> (8686)
[it] to Zadok
<06659>
and Abiathar
<054>
the priests
<03548>_.
Behold, [they have] there with them their two
<08147>
sons
<01121>_,
Ahimaaz
<0290>
Zadok's
<06659>
[son], and Jonathan
<03083>
Abiathar's
<054>
[son]; and by them
<03027>
ye shall send
<07971> (8804)
unto me every thing
<01697>
that ye can hear
<08085> (8799)_.
So Hushai
<02365>
David's
<01732>
friend
<07463>
came
<0935> (8799)
into the city
<05892>_,
and Absalom
<053>
came
<0935> (8799)
into Jerusalem
<03389>_.
