2 Samuel 18:18-20
18During his lifetimeH2416, AbsalomH53H3947 had set upH5324 for himself a pillarH4678 in the King’sH4428 ValleyH6010, forH3588 he had saidH559, “I have noH369 sonH1121 toH5668 preserve the memoryH2142 of my nameH8034.” So he gaveH7121 the pillarH4678H5921 his nameH8034, and toH5704 thisH2088 dayH3117 it is calledH7121 Absalom’sH53 MonumentH3027.
19Then AhimaazH290 sonH1121 of ZadokH6659 saidH559, “PleaseH4994 let me runH7323 and tell the kingH4428 the good newsH1319 thatH3588 the LORDH3068 has avenged himH8199 ofH3027 his enemiesH341.”
20But JoabH3097 repliedH559, “YouH859 are notH3808 the manH376 to take good newsH1309 todayH3117H2088. You may doH1319 it anotherH312 dayH3117, but you must notH3808 do so todayH3117H2088, becauseH3588H5921 the king’sH4428 sonH1121 is deadH4191.”
