2 Samuel 17:21-29

21

AfterH310 the men had goneH1980, Ahimaaz and Jonathan climbed upH5927 out of the wellH875 and wentH1980 to informH5046 KingH4428 DavidH1732, sayingH559, “Get upH6965 and cross overH5674 the riverH4325 at onceH4120, forH3588 AhithophelH302 has given thisH3602 adviceH3289 against youH5921.”

22So DavidH1732 and allH3605 the peopleH5971 with himH854 got upH6965 and crossedH5674 the JordanH3383. ByH5704 daybreakH216H1242H5704, there was noH3808 oneH259 leftH5737 whoH834 had notH3808 crossedH5674 the JordanH3383.

23When AhithophelH302 sawH7200 thatH3588 his adviceH6098 had notH3808 been followedH6213, he saddledH2280 his donkeyH2543 and set outH6965H1980 forH413 his houseH1004 inH413 his hometownH5892. He put his affairsH413H1004 in orderH6680 and hanged himselfH2614. So he diedH4191 and was buriedH6912 in his father’sH1 tombH6913.

24Then DavidH1732 wentH935 to MahanaimH4266, and AbsalomH53 crossedH5674 the JordanH3383H1931 withH5973 allH3605 the menH376 of IsraelH3478. 25AbsalomH53 had appointedH7760 AmasaH6021 overH5921 the armyH6635 in placeH8478 of JoabH3097. AmasaH6021 was the sonH1121 of a manH376 namedH8034 IthraH3501,1 the IshmaeliteH34812 whoH834 had marriedH935H413 AbigailH26,3 the daughterH1323 of NahashH51764 and sisterH269 of ZeruiahH6870 the motherH517 of JoabH3097. 26So the IsraelitesH3478 and AbsalomH53 campedH2583 in the landH776 of GileadH1568.

When DavidH1732 cameH935 to MahanaimH4266, he was met by ShobiH7629 sonH1121 of NahashH5176 from RabbahH7237 of the AmmonitesH1121H5983, MachirH4353 sonH1121 of AmmielH5988 from Lo-debarH3810, and BarzillaiH1271 the GileaditeH1569 from RogelimH7274. 28They brought bedsH4904, basinsH5592, and earthenH3335 vesselsH3627, as well as wheatH2406, barleyH8184, flourH7058, roasted grainH7039, beansH6321, lentilsH5742H7039,5 29honeyH1706, curdsH2529, sheepH6629, and cheeseH8194 from the herdH1241H5066 for DavidH1732 and his peopleH5971 to eatH398. ForH3588 they saidH559, “The peopleH5971 have become hungryH7457, exhaustedH5889, and thirstyH6771 in the wildernessH4057.”
