2 Samuel 19:1--20:26

19:1
And it was told
<05046> (8714)
Joab
<03097>_,
Behold, the king
<04428>
weepeth
<01058> (8802)
and mourneth
<056> (8691)
for Absalom
<053>_.
19:2
And the victory
<08668>
that day
<03117>
was [turned] into mourning
<060>
unto all the people
<05971>_:
for the people
<05971>
heard
<08085> (8804)
say
<0559> (8800)
that day
<03117>
how the king
<04428>
was grieved
<06087> (8738)
for his son
<01121>_.
{victory: Heb. salvation, or, deliverance}
19:3
And the people
<05971>
gat
<0935> (8800)
them by stealth
<01589> (8691)
that day
<03117>
into the city
<05892>_,
as people
<05971>
being ashamed
<03637> (8737)
steal away
<01589> (8691)
when they flee
<05127> (8800)
in battle
<04421>_.
19:4
But the king
<04428>
covered
<03813> (8804)
his face
<06440>_,
and the king
<04428>
cried
<02199> (8799)
with a loud
<01419>
voice
<06963>_,
O my son
<01121>
Absalom
<053>_,
O Absalom
<053>_,
my son
<01121>_,
my son
<01121>_!
19:5
And Joab
<03097>
came
<0935> (8799)
into the house
<01004>
to the king
<04428>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thou hast shamed
<03001> (8689)
this day
<03117>
the faces
<06440>
of all thy servants
<05650>_,
which this day
<03117>
have saved
<04422> (8764)
thy life
<05315>_,
and the lives
<05315>
of thy sons
<01121>
and of thy daughters
<01323>_,
and the lives
<05315>
of thy wives
<0802>_,
and the lives
<05315>
of thy concubines
<06370>_;
19:6
In that thou lovest
<0157> (8800)
thine enemies
<08130> (8802)_,
and hatest
<08130> (8800)
thy friends
<0157> (8802)_.
For thou hast declared
<05046> (8689)
this day
<03117>_,
that thou regardest neither princes
<08269>
nor servants
<05650>_:
for this day
<03117>
I perceive
<03045> (8804)_,
that if
<03863>
Absalom
<053>
had lived
<02416>_,
and all we had died
<04191> (8801)
this day
<03117>_,
then it had pleased thee well
<03477> <05869>_.
{in...: Heb. By loving, etc} {that thou regardest...: Heb. that princes or servants are not to thee}
19:7
Now therefore arise
<06965> (8798)_,
go forth
<03318> (8798)_,
and speak
<01696> (8761)
comfortably
<03820>
unto thy servants
<05650>_:
for I swear
<07650> (8738)
by the LORD
<03068>_,
if thou go not forth
<03318> (8802)_,
there will not tarry
<03885> (8799)
one
<0376>
with thee this night
<03915>_:
and that will be worse
<07489> (8804)
unto thee than all the evil
<07451>
that befell
<0935> (8804)
thee from thy youth
<05271>
until now. {comfortably...: Heb. to the heart of thy servants}
19:8
Then the king
<04428>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and sat
<03427> (8799)
in the gate
<08179>_.
And they told
<05046> (8689)
unto all the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold, the king
<04428>
doth sit
<03427> (8802)
in the gate
<08179>_.
And all the people
<05971>
came
<0935> (8799)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_:
for Israel
<03478>
had fled
<05127> (8804)
every man
<0376>
to his tent
<0168>_.
19:9
And all the people
<05971>
were at strife
<01777> (8737)
throughout all the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The king
<04428>
saved
<05337> (8689)
us out of the hand
<03709>
of our enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
and he delivered
<04422> (8765)
us out of the hand
<03709>
of the Philistines
<06430>_;
and now he is fled
<01272> (8804)
out of the land
<0776>
for Absalom
<053>_.
19:10
And Absalom
<053>_,
whom we anointed
<04886> (8804)
over us, is dead
<04191> (8804)
in battle
<04421>_.
Now therefore why speak
<02790> (8688)
ye not a word of bringing
<07725> (0)
the king
<04428>
back
<07725> (8687)_?
{speak...: Heb. are ye silent?}
19:11
And king
<04428>
David
<01732>
sent
<07971> (8804)
to Zadok
<06659>
and to Abiathar
<054>
the priests
<03548>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Speak
<01696> (8761)
unto the elders
<02205>
of Judah
<03063>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Why are ye the last
<0314>
to bring
<07725> (0)
the king
<04428>
back
<07725> (8687)
to his house
<01004>_?
seeing the speech
<01697>
of all Israel
<03478>
is come
<0935> (8804)
to the king
<04428>_,
[even] to his house
<01004>_.
19:12
Ye [are] my brethren
<0251>_,
ye [are] my bones
<06106>
and my flesh
<01320>_:
wherefore then are ye the last
<0314>
to bring back
<07725> (8687)
the king
<04428>_?
19:13
And say
<0559> (8799)
ye to Amasa
<06021>_,
[Art] thou not of my bone
<06106>_,
and of my flesh
<01320>_?
God
<0430>
do
<06213> (8799)
so to me, and more
<03254> (8686)
also, if thou be not captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>
before
<06440>
me continually
<03117>
in the room
<08478>
of Joab
<03097>_.
19:14
And he bowed
<05186> (8686)
the heart
<03824>
of all the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>_,
even as [the heart of] one
<0259>
man
<0376>_;
so that they sent
<07971> (8799)
[this word] unto the king
<04428>_,
Return
<07725> (8798)
thou, and all thy servants
<05650>_.
19:15
So the king
<04428>
returned
<07725> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to Jordan
<03383>_.
And Judah
<03063>
came
<0935> (8804)
to Gilgal
<01537>_,
to go
<03212> (8800)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
the king
<04428>_,
to conduct
<05674> (0)
the king
<04428>
over
<05674> (8687)
Jordan
<03383>_.
19:16
And Shimei
<08096>
the son
<01121>
of Gera
<01617>_,
a Benjamite
<01145>_,
which [was] of Bahurim
<0980>_,
hasted
<04116> (8762)
and came down
<03381> (8799)
with the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>
to meet
<07125> (8800)
king
<04428>
David
<01732>_.
19:17
And [there were] a thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>
of Benjamin
<01145>
with him, and Ziba
<06717>
the servant
<05288>
of the house
<01004>
of Saul
<07586>_,
and his fifteen
<02568> <06240>
sons
<01121>
and his twenty
<06242>
servants
<05650>
with him; and they went over
<06743> (8804)
Jordan
<03383>
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_.
19:18
And there went over
<05674> (8804)
a ferry boat
<05679>
to carry over
<05674> (8687)
the king's
<04428>
household
<01004>_,
and to do
<06213> (8800)
what he thought
<05869>
good
<02896>_.
And Shimei
<08096>
the son
<01121>
of Gera
<01617>
fell down
<05307> (8804)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_,
as he was come over
<05674> (8800)
Jordan
<03383>_;
{what...: Heb. the good in his eyes}
19:19
And said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
Let not my lord
<0113>
impute
<02803> (8799)
iniquity
<05771>
unto me, neither do thou remember
<02142> (8799)
that which thy servant
<05650>
did perversely
<05753> (8689)
the day
<03117>
that my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
went out
<03318> (8804)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that the king
<04428>
should take
<07760> (8800)
it to his heart
<03820>_.
19:20
For thy servant
<05650>
doth know
<03045> (8804)
that I have sinned
<02398> (8804)_:
therefore, behold, I am come
<0935> (8804)
the first
<07223>
this day
<03117>
of all the house
<01004>
of Joseph
<03130>
to go down
<03381> (8800)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_.
19:21
But Abishai
<052>
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Shall not Shimei
<08096>
be put to death
<04191> (8714)
for this, because he cursed
<07043> (8765)
the LORD'S
<03068>
anointed
<04899>_?
19:22
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
What have I to do with you, ye sons
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>_,
that ye should this day
<03117>
be adversaries
<07854>
unto me? shall there any man
<0376>
be put to death
<04191> (8714)
this day
<03117>
in Israel
<03478>_?
for do not I know
<03045> (8804)
that I [am] this day
<03117>
king
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>_?
19:23
Therefore the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Shimei
<08096>_,
Thou shalt not die
<04191> (8799)_.
And the king
<04428>
sware
<07650> (8735)
unto him.
19:24
And Mephibosheth
<04648>
the son
<01121>
of Saul
<07586>
came down
<03381> (8804)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
the king
<04428>_,
and had neither
<03808>
dressed
<06213> (8804)
his feet
<07272>_,
nor trimmed
<06213> (8804)
his beard
<08222>_,
nor washed
<03526> (8765)
his clothes
<0899>_,
from the day
<03117>
the king
<04428>
departed
<03212> (8800)
until the day
<03117>
he came
<0935> (8804)
[again] in peace
<07965>_.
19:25
And it came to pass, when he was come
<0935> (8804)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
to meet
<07125> (8800)
the king
<04428>_,
that the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Wherefore wentest
<01980> (8804)
not thou with me, Mephibosheth
<04648>_?
19:26
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
My lord
<0113>_,
O king
<04428>_,
my servant
<05650>
deceived
<07411> (8765)
me: for thy servant
<05650>
said
<0559> (8804)_,
I will saddle
<02280> (8799)
me an ass
<02543>_,
that I may ride
<07392> (8799)
thereon, and go
<03212> (8799)
to the king
<04428>_;
because thy servant
<05650>
[is] lame
<06455>_.
19:27
And he hath slandered
<07270> (8762)
thy servant
<05650>
unto my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_;
but my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
[is] as an angel
<04397>
of God
<0430>_:
do
<06213> (8798)
therefore [what is] good
<02896>
in thine eyes
<05869>_.
19:28
For all [of] my father's
<01>
house
<01004>
were but
<03808>
dead
<04194>
men
<0582>
before my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_:
yet didst thou set
<07896> (8799)
thy servant
<05650>
among them that did eat
<0398> (8802)
at thine own table
<07979>_.
What right
<06666>
therefore have
<03426>
I yet to cry
<02199> (8800)
any more unto the king
<04428>_?
{dead...: Heb. men of death}
19:29
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Why speakest
<01696> (8762)
thou any more of thy matters
<01697>_?
I have said
<0559> (8804)_,
Thou and Ziba
<06717>
divide
<02505> (8799)
the land
<07704>_.
19:30
And Mephibosheth
<04648>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
Yea, let him take
<03947> (8799)
all, forasmuch
<0310>
as
<0834>
my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
is come again
<0935> (8804)
in peace
<07965>
unto his own house
<01004>_.
19:31
And Barzillai
<01271>
the Gileadite
<01569>
came down
<03381> (8804)
from Rogelim
<07274>_,
and went over
<05674> (8799)
Jordan
<03383>
with the king
<04428>_,
to conduct
<07971> (8763)
him over Jordan
<03383>_.
19:32
Now Barzillai
<01271>
was a very
<03966>
aged
<02204> (8804)
man, [even] fourscore
<08084>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>_:
and he had provided the king
<04428>
of sustenance
<03557> (8773)
while he lay
<07871>
at Mahanaim
<04266>_;
for he [was] a very
<03966>
great
<01419>
man
<0376>_.
19:33
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Barzillai
<01271>_,
Come thou over
<05674> (8798)
with me, and I will feed
<03557> (8773)
thee with me in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
19:34
And Barzillai
<01271>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
How long
<03117>
have I to live
<08141> <02416>_,
that I should go up
<05927> (8799)
with the king
<04428>
unto Jerusalem
<03389>_?
{How...: Heb. How many days are the years of my life}
19:35
I [am] this day
<03117>
fourscore
<08084>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>_:
[and] can I discern
<03045> (8799)
between good
<02896>
and evil
<07451>_?
can thy servant
<05650>
taste
<02938> (8799)
what
<0834>
I eat
<0398> (8799)
or what
<0834>
I drink
<08354> (8799)_?
can I hear
<08085> (8799)
any more the voice
<06963>
of singing men
<07891> (8802)
and singing women
<07891> (8802)_?
wherefore then should thy servant
<05650>
be yet a burden
<04853>
unto my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_?
19:36
Thy servant
<05650>
will go
<05674> (0)
a little way
<04592>
over
<05674> (8799)
Jordan
<03383>
with the king
<04428>_:
and why should the king
<04428>
recompense
<01580> (8799)
it me with such a reward
<01578>_?
19:37
Let thy servant
<05650>_,
I pray thee, turn back again
<07725> (8799)_,
that I may die
<04191> (8799)
in mine own city
<05892>_,
[and be buried] by the grave
<06913>
of my father
<01>
and of my mother
<0517>_.
But behold thy servant
<05650>
Chimham
<03643>_;
let him go over
<05674> (8799)
with my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_;
and do
<06213> (8798)
to him what shall seem good
<02896> <05869>
unto thee.
19:38
And the king
<04428>
answered
<0559> (8799)_,
Chimham
<03643>
shall go
<05674> (8799)
over with me, and I will do
<06213> (8799)
to him that which shall seem good
<02896> <05869>
unto thee: and whatsoever thou shalt require
<0977> (8799)
of me, [that] will I do
<06213> (8799)
for thee. {require: Heb. choose}
19:39
And all the people
<05971>
went over
<05674> (8799)
Jordan
<03383>_.
And when the king
<04428>
was come over
<05674> (8804)_,
the king
<04428>
kissed
<05401> (8799)
Barzillai
<01271>_,
and blessed
<01288> (8762)
him; and he returned
<07725> (8799)
unto his own place
<04725>_.
19:40
Then the king
<04428>
went on
<05674> (8799)
to Gilgal
<01537>_,
and Chimham
<03643>
went on
<05674> (8804)
with him: and all the people
<05971>
of Judah
<03063>
conducted
<05674> (8689) (8675) <05674> (8686)
the king
<04428>_,
and also half
<02677>
the people
<05971>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{Chimham: Heb. Chimhan}
19:41
And, behold, all the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
came
<0935> (8802)
to the king
<04428>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
Why have our brethren
<0251>
the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>
stolen thee away
<01589> (8804)_,
and have brought
<05674> (8686)
the king
<04428>_,
and his household
<01004>_,
and all David's
<01732>
men
<0582>
with him, over Jordan
<03383>_?
19:42
And all the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>
answered
<06030> (8799)
the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Because the king
<04428>
[is] near of kin
<07138>
to us: wherefore then be ye angry
<02734> (8804)
for this matter
<01697>_?
have we eaten
<0398> (8804)
at all
<0398> (8800)
of the king's
<04428>
[cost]? or hath he given
<05375> (8765)
us any gift
<05379>_?
19:43
And the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
answered
<06030> (8799)
the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
We have ten
<06235>
parts
<03027>
in the king
<04428>_,
and we
<0589>
have also more [right] in David
<01732>
than ye: why then did ye despise
<07043> (8689)
us, that our advice
<01697>
should not be first
<07223>
had in bringing back
<07725> (8687)
our king
<04428>_?
And the words
<01697>
of the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>
were fiercer
<07185> (8799)
than the words
<01697>
of the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{despise...: Heb. set us at light}
20:1
And there happened
<07122> (8738)
to be there a man
<0376>
of Belial
<01100>_,
whose name
<08034>
[was] Sheba
<07652>_,
the son
<01121>
of Bichri
<01075>_,
a Benjamite
<01145>_:
and he blew
<08628> (8799)
a trumpet
<07782>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
We have no part
<02506>
in David
<01732>_,
neither have we inheritance
<05159>
in the son
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>_:
every
<0376>
man
<0376>
to his tents
<0168>_,
O Israel
<03478>_.
20:2
So every man
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
went up
<05927> (8799)
from after
<0310>
David
<01732>_,
[and] followed
<0310>
Sheba
<07652>
the son
<01121>
of Bichri
<01075>_:
but the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>
clave
<01692> (8804)
unto their king
<04428>_,
from Jordan
<03383>
even to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
20:3
And David
<01732>
came
<0935> (8799)
to his house
<01004>
at Jerusalem
<03389>_;
and the king
<04428>
took
<03947> (8799)
the ten
<06235>
women
<0802>
[his] concubines
<06370>_,
whom he had left
<03240> (8689)
to keep
<08104> (8800)
the house
<01004>_,
and put
<05414> (8799)
them in ward
<04931>_,
and fed
<03557> (8770)
them, but went not in
<0935> (8804)
unto them. So they were shut up
<06887> (8803)
unto the day
<03117>
of their death
<04191> (8800)_,
living
<02424>
in widowhood
<0491>_.
{ward: Heb. an house of ward} {shut...: Heb. bound} {living...: Heb. in widowhood of life}
20:4
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the king
<04428>
to Amasa
<06021>_,
Assemble
<02199> (8685)
me the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>
within three
<07969>
days
<03117>_,
and be thou here present
<05975> (8798)_.
{Assemble: Heb. Call}
20:5
So Amasa
<06021>
went
<03212> (8799)
to assemble
<02199> (8687)
[the men of] Judah
<03063>_:
but he tarried longer
<0309> (8799) (8675) <03186> (8799)
than the set time
<04150>
which he had appointed
<03259> (8804)
him. {Assemble: Heb. Call}
20:6
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Abishai
<052>_,
Now shall Sheba
<07652>
the son
<01121>
of Bichri
<01075>
do us more harm
<03415> (8799)
than [did] Absalom
<053>_:
take
<03947> (8798)
thou thy lord's
<0113>
servants
<05650>_,
and pursue
<07291> (8798)
after
<0310>
him, lest he get
<04672> (8804)
him fenced
<01219> (8803)
cities
<05892>_,
and escape
<05337> (8689)
us
<05869>_.
{escape...: Heb. deliver himself from our eyes}
20:7
And there went out
<03318> (8799)
after
<0310>
him Joab's
<03097>
men
<0582>_,
and the Cherethites
<03774>_,
and the Pelethites
<06432>_,
and all the mighty men
<01368>_:
and they went out
<03318> (8799)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
to pursue
<07291> (8800)
after
<0310>
Sheba
<07652>
the son
<01121>
of Bichri
<01075>_.
20:8
When they [were] at the great
<01419>
stone
<068>
which [is] in Gibeon
<01391>_,
Amasa
<06021>
went
<0935> (8804)
before
<06440>
them. And Joab's
<03097>
garment
<04055>
that he had put on
<03830>
was girded
<02296> (8803)
unto him, and upon it a girdle
<02289>
[with] a sword
<02719>
fastened
<06775> (8794)
upon his loins
<04975>
in the sheath
<08593>
thereof; and as he went forth
<03318> (8804)
it fell out
<05307> (8799)_.
20:9
And Joab
<03097>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Amasa
<06021>_,
[Art] thou in health
<07965>_,
my brother
<0251>_?
And Joab
<03097>
took
<0270> (8799)
Amasa
<06021>
by the beard
<02206>
with the right
<03225>
hand
<03027>
to kiss
<05401> (8800)
him.
20:10
But Amasa
<06021>
took no heed
<08104> (8738)
to the sword
<02719>
that [was] in Joab's
<03097>
hand
<03027>_:
so he smote
<05221> (8686)
him therewith in the fifth
<02570>
[rib], and shed out
<08210> (8799)
his bowels
<04578>
to the ground
<0776>_,
and struck him not again
<08138> (8804)_;
and he died
<04191> (8799)_.
So Joab
<03097>
and Abishai
<052>
his brother
<0251>
pursued
<07291> (8804)
after
<0310>
Sheba
<07652>
the son
<01121>
of Bichri
<01075>_.
{struck...: Heb. doubled not his stroke}
20:11
And one
<0376>
of Joab's
<03097>
men
<05288>
stood
<05975> (8804)
by him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
He
<04310>
that favoureth
<02654> (8804)
Joab
<03097>_,
and he that [is] for David
<01732>_,
[let him go] after
<0310>
Joab
<03097>_.
20:12
And Amasa
<06021>
wallowed
<01556> (8706)
in blood
<01818>
in the midst
<08432>
of the highway
<04546>_.
And when the man
<0376>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that all the people
<05971>
stood still
<05975> (8804)_,
he removed
<05437> (8686)
Amasa
<06021>
out of the highway
<04546>
into the field
<07704>_,
and cast
<07993> (8686)
a cloth
<0899>
upon him, when he saw
<07200> (8804)
that every one that came
<0935> (8802)
by him stood still
<05975> (8804)_.
20:13
When he was removed
<03014> (8689)
out of the highway
<04546>_,
all the people
<0376>
went on
<05674> (8804)
after
<0310>
Joab
<03097>_,
to pursue
<07291> (8800)
after
<0310>
Sheba
<07652>
the son
<01121>
of Bichri
<01075>_.
20:14
And he went
<05674> (8799)
through all the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>
unto Abel
<059>_,
and to Bethmaachah
<01038>_,
and all the Berites
<01276>_:
and they were gathered together
<06950> (8735) (8675) <07035> (8735)_,
and went
<0935> (8799)
also after
<0310>
him.
20:15
And they came
<0935> (8799)
and besieged
<06696> (8799)
him in Abel
<059>
of Bethmaachah
<01038>_,
and they cast up
<08210> (8799)
a bank
<05550>
against the city
<05892>_,
and it stood
<05975> (8799)
in the trench
<02426>_:
and all the people
<05971>
that [were] with Joab
<03097>
battered
<07843> (8688)
the wall
<02346>_,
to throw it down
<05307> (8687)_.
{in the trench: or, against the outmost wall} {battered: Heb. marred to throw down}
20:16
Then cried
<07121> (8799)
a wise
<02450>
woman
<0802>
out of the city
<05892>_,
Hear
<08085> (8798)_,
hear
<08085> (8798)_;
say
<0559> (8798)_,
I pray you, unto Joab
<03097>_,
Come near
<07126> (8798)
hither, that I may speak
<01696> (8762)
with thee.
20:17
And when he was come near
<07126> (8799)
unto her, the woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
[Art] thou Joab
<03097>_?
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
I [am he]. Then she said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Hear
<08085> (8798)
the words
<01697>
of thine handmaid
<0519>_.
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
I do hear
<08085> (8802)_.
20:18
Then she spake
<0559> (8799)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
They were wont
<01696> (8763)
to speak
<01696> (8762)
in old time
<07223>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
They shall surely
<07592> (8800)
ask
<07592> (8762)
[counsel] at Abel
<059>_:
and so they ended
<08552> (8689)
[the matter]. {They were...: or, They plainly spoke in the beginning, saying, Surely they will ask of Abel, and so make and end}
20:19
I [am one of them that are] peaceable
<07999> (8803)
[and] faithful
<0539> (8803)
in Israel
<03478>_:
thou seekest
<01245> (8764)
to destroy
<04191> (8687)
a city
<05892>
and a mother
<0517>
in Israel
<03478>_:
why wilt thou swallow up
<01104> (8762)
the inheritance
<05159>
of the LORD
<03068>_?
20:20
And Joab
<03097>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Far be it
<02486>_,
far be it
<02486>
from me, that I should swallow up
<01104> (8762)
or destroy
<07843> (8686)_.
20:21
The matter
<01697>
[is] not so: but a man
<0376>
of mount
<02022>
Ephraim
<0669>_,
Sheba
<07652>
the son
<01121>
of Bichri
<01075>
by name
<08034>_,
hath lifted up
<05375> (8804)
his hand
<03027>
against the king
<04428>_,
[even] against David
<01732>_:
deliver
<05414> (8798)
him only, and I will depart
<03212> (8799)
from the city
<05892>_.
And the woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joab
<03097>_,
Behold, his head
<07218>
shall be thrown
<07993> (8716)
to thee over
<01157>
the wall
<02346>_.
{by name: Heb. by his name}
20:22
Then the woman
<0802>
went
<0935> (8799)
unto all the people
<05971>
in her wisdom
<02451>_.
And they cut off
<03772> (8799)
the head
<07218>
of Sheba
<07652>
the son
<01121>
of Bichri
<01075>_,
and cast
<07993> (8686)
[it] out to Joab
<03097>_.
And he blew
<08628> (8799)
a trumpet
<07782>_,
and they retired
<06327> (8799)
from the city
<05892>_,
every man
<0376>
to his tent
<0168>_.
And Joab
<03097>
returned
<07725> (8804)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
unto the king
<04428>_.
{retired: Heb. were scattered}
20:23
Now Joab
<03097>
[was] over all the host
<06635>
of Israel
<03478>_:
and Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>
[was] over the Cherethites
<03774> (8675) <03746>
and over the Pelethites
<06432>_:
20:24
And Adoram
<0151>
[was] over the tribute
<04522>_:
and Jehoshaphat
<03092>
the son
<01121>
of Ahilud
<0286>
[was] recorder
<02142> (8688)_:
{recorder: or, remembrancer}
20:25
And Sheva
<07864> (8675) <07724>
[was] scribe
<05608> (8802)_:
and Zadok
<06659>
and Abiathar
<054>
[were] the priests
<03548>_:
20:26
And Ira
<05896>
also the Jairite
<02972>
was a chief ruler
<03548>
about David
<01732>_.
{a chief...: or, a prince}
