2 Samuel 18:21-25
21Then JoabH3097 saidH559 to the CushiteH3569, “GoH1980, tellH5046 the kingH4428 whatH834 you have seenH7200.” So the CushiteH3569 bowedH2331 to JoabH3097 and ranH7323. 22However, AhimaazH290 the sonH1121 of ZadokH6659 saidH559 onceH3254H5750 moreH3254H5750 to JoabH3097, “But whateverH4100 happensH1961, pleaseH4994 let me alsoH1571 runH7323 afterH310 the CushiteH3569.” And JoabH3097 saidH559, “WhyH4100H2088 would you runH7323, my sonH1121, since 1you will haveH369 noH369 messenger’sH1309 rewardH1309 for goingH3318?” 23“But whateverH4100 happensH1961,” he said, “I will runH7323.” So he saidH559 to him, “RunH7323.” Then AhimaazH290 ranH7323 by wayH1870 of the plainH3603 and passedH5674 byH5674 the CushiteH3569.
24Now 2DavidH1732 was sittingH3427 betweenH996 the twoH8147 gatesH8179; and 3the watchmanH6822 wentH1980 to the roofH1406 of the gateH8179 by the wallH2346, and raisedH5375 his eyesH5869 and lookedH7200; and beholdH2009, a manH376 was runningH7323 byH905 himselfH905. 25So the watchmanH6822 calledH7121 outH7121 and toldH5046 the kingH4428. And the kingH4428 saidH559, “IfH518 he is byH905 himselfH905 there is goodH1309 newsH1309 in his mouthH6310.” And he cameH1980 nearerH7131H1980 and nearerH7131.
