2 Samuel 18:21-32

21Then saidH559 JoabH3097 to the CushiteH3569, Go, tellH5046 the kingH4428 what thou hast seenH7200. And the CushiteH3569 bowedH7812 himself unto JoabH3097, and ranH7323. 22Then saidH559 AhimaazH290 the sonH1121 of ZadokH6659 yetH5750 againH5750 to JoabH3097, But come what may, let me, I pray thee, alsoH1571 runH7323 after the CushiteH3569. And JoabH3097 saidH559, Wherefore wilt thou runH7323, my sonH1121, seeing that thou wilt have no reward for the tidings? 23But come what may, saidH559 he, I will runH7323. And he saidH559 unto him, RunH7323. Then AhimaazH290 ranH7323 by the wayH1870 of the Plain, and outran the CushiteH3569.

24Now DavidH1732 was sittingH3427 between the twoH8147 gatesH8179: and the watchmanH6822 went up to the roofH1406 of the gateH8179 unto the wallH2346, and liftedH5375 up his eyesH5869, and lookedH7200, and, behold, a manH376 runningH7323 aloneH905. 25And the watchmanH6822 cried, and toldH5046 the kingH4428. And the kingH4428 saidH559, If he be aloneH905, there is tidings in his mouthH6310. And he cameH1980 apace, and drew near. 26And the watchmanH6822 sawH7200 another manH376 runningH7323; and the watchmanH6822 calledH7121 unto the porter, and saidH559, Behold, another manH376 runningH7323 aloneH905. And the kingH4428 saidH559, He alsoH1571 bringeth tidings. 27And the watchmanH6822 saidH559, I think the running of the foremost is like the running of AhimaazH290 the sonH1121 of ZadokH6659. And the kingH4428 saidH559, He is a goodH2896 manH376, and cometh with goodH2896 tidings.

28And AhimaazH290 calledH7121, and saidH559 unto the kingH4428, All is well. And he bowedH7812 himself before the kingH4428 with his faceH639 to the earthH776, and saidH559, BlessedH1288 be Jehovah thy GodH430, who hath deliveredH5462 up the menH376 that liftedH5375 up their handH3027 against my lord the kingH4428. 29And the kingH4428 saidH559, Is it well with the youngH5288 manH5288 AbsalomH53? And AhimaazH290 answered, When JoabH3097 sentH7971 the king’sH4428 servantH5650, even me thy servantH5650, I sawH7200 a greatH1419 tumultH1995, but I knewH3045 not what it was. 30And the kingH4428 saidH559, TurnH5437 aside, and standH5975 here. And he turnedH5437 aside, and stoodH5975 stillH5975.

31And, behold, the CushiteH3569 cameH935; and the CushiteH3569 saidH559, Tidings for my lord the kingH4428; for Jehovah hath avenged thee this dayH3117 of all them that roseH6965 up against thee. 32And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto the CushiteH3569, Is it well with the youngH5288 manH5288 AbsalomH53? And the CushiteH3569 answered, The enemiesH341 of my lordH113 the kingH4428, and all that riseH6965 up against thee to do thee hurt, beH1961 as that youngH5288 manH5288 is.
