2 Samuel 15:7-12

7And it came to pass at the endH7093 of fortyH705 yearsH8141, that AbsalomH53 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, I pray thee, let me go and payH7999 my vowH5088, which I have vowedH5087 unto Jehovah, in HebronH2275. 8For thy servantH5650 vowedH5087 a vowH5088 while I abode at GeshurH1650 in Syria, sayingH559, If Jehovah shall indeed bringH7725 me again to JerusalemH3389, then I will serveH5647 Jehovah. 9And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto him, Go in peaceH7965. So he aroseH6965, and went to HebronH2275. 10But AbsalomH53 sentH7971 spiesH7270 throughout all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, As soon as ye hearH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, then ye shall sayH559, AbsalomH53 is kingH4427 in HebronH2275. 11And with AbsalomH53 wentH1980 two hundredH3967 menH376 out of JerusalemH3389, that were invited, and wentH1980 in their simplicity; and they knewH3045 not anything. 12And AbsalomH53 sentH7971 for AhithophelH302 the GiloniteH1526, David’s counsellor, from his cityH5892, even from GilohH1542, while he wasH1961 offeringH2076 the sacrificesH2077. And the conspiracyH7195 wasH1961 strongH533; for the peopleH5971 increased continually with AbsalomH53.
