2 Samuel 18:28-32
28AhimaazH290 calledH7121 and saidH559 to the kingH4428, “1All is wellH7965.” And 2he prostratedH7812 himself before the kingH4428 with his faceH639 to the groundH776. And he saidH559, “3BlessedH1288 is the LordH3068 your GodH430, whoH834 has deliveredH5462 up the menH376 whoH834 liftedH5375 their handsH3027 against my lordH113 the kingH4428.” 29The kingH4428 saidH559, “4Is it wellH7965 with the youngH5288 manH5288 AbsalomH53?” And AhimaazH290 answeredH559, “When JoabH3097 sentH7971 the king’sH4428 servantH5650, and your servantH5650, I sawH7200 a greatH1419 tumultH1995, but 5I did not knowH3045 whatH4100 it was.” 30Then the kingH4428 saidH559, “TurnH5437 asideH5437 and standH3320 hereH3541.” So he turnedH5437 asideH5437 and stoodH5975 stillH5975.
31BeholdH2009, the CushiteH3569 arrivedH935, and the CushiteH3569 saidH559, “Let my lordH113 the kingH4428 receiveH1319 good newsH1319, for 6the LordH3068 has 7freedH8199 you this dayH3117 from the handH3027 of allH3605 those who roseH6965 up againstH5921 you.” 32Then the kingH4428 saidH559 to the CushiteH3569, “8Is it wellH7965 with the youngH5288 manH5288 AbsalomH53?” And the CushiteH3569 answeredH559, “9Let the enemiesH340 of my lordH113 the kingH4428, and allH3605 whoH834 riseH6965 up againstH5921 you for evilH7463, be as that youngH5288 manH5288!”
