13Then a messengerH5046 cameH935 to DavidH1732, sayingH559, “1The heartsH3820 of the peopleH376 of IsraelH3478 are 2with AbsalomH53.” 14So DavidH1732 saidH559 to allH3605 his servantsH5650 whoH834 were with him in JerusalemH3389, “3AriseH6965 and let’s fleeH1272, for otherwise noneH3808 of us will escapeH6413 from AbsalomH53. GoH1980 quicklyH4116, orH6435 he will hurryH4116 and overtakeH5381 us, and bringH5080 disasterH5080H7463 on us and strikeH5221 the cityH5892 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.” 15Then the king’sH4428 servantsH5650 saidH559 to the kingH4428, “BeholdH2009, your servantsH5650 will do whateverH3605H834 my lordH113 the kingH4428 choosesH977.” 16So the kingH4428 leftH3318, and allH3605 his householdH1004 4with him; but 5the kingH4428 leftH5800 tenH6235 concubinesH6370 behindH5800 to takeH8104 careH8104 of the houseH1004. 17The kingH4428 leftH3318, and allH3605 the peopleH5971 6with him, and they stoppedH5975 at the lastH4801 houseH1004. 18Now allH3605 of his servantsH5650 passedH5674 byH5674 besideH5921H3027 him, and 7allH3605 the CherethitesH3774, allH3605 the PelethitesH6432, and allH3605 the GittitesH1663, 8sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376 whoH834 had comeH935 9with him from GathH1661, passedH5674 byH5674 beforeH6440 the kingH4428.
