2 Samuel 15:7-12

7And it came to pass at the endH7093 of fortyH705 yearsH8141, that AbsalomH53 saidH559 to the kingH4428, I pray thee, let me go and payH7999 in HebronH2275 my vowH5088 which I have vowedH5087 to Jehovah.

8For thy servantH5650 vowedH5087 a vowH5088 while I abode in GeshurH1650 in Syria, sayingH559, If Jehovah shall bringH7725 me again indeed to JerusalemH3389, then I will serveH5647 Jehovah.

9And the kingH4428 saidH559 to him, Go in peaceH7965. And he roseH6965 up and went to HebronH2275.

10And AbsalomH53 sentH7971 emissaries into all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, When ye hearH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, ye shall sayH559, AbsalomH53 reignsH4427 in HebronH2275.

11And with AbsalomH53 wentH1980 two hundredH3967 menH376 out of JerusalemH3389, that were invited; and they wentH1980 in their simplicity, and they knewH3045 nothing.

12And AbsalomH53 sentH7971 for AhithophelH302 the GiloniteH1526, David's counsellor, from his cityH5892, from GilohH1542, while he offeredH2076 the sacrificesH2077. And the conspiracyH7195 gathered strength; and the peopleH5971 increased continually with AbsalomH53.
