2 Samuel 18:24-27

24Now 1DavidH1732 was sittingH3427 betweenH996 the twoH8147 gatesH8179; and 2the 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. 26Then the watchmanH6822 sawH7200 anotherH312 manH376 runningH7323; and the watchmanH6822 calledH7121 to the gatekeeperH7778 and saidH559, “BeholdH2009, another manH376 is runningH7323 byH905 himselfH905.” And the kingH4428 saidH559, “ThisH2088 oneH2088 alsoH1571 is bringingH1319 goodH1319 newsH1319.” 27The watchmanH6822 saidH559, “I 3thinkH7200 the runningH4794 formH4794 of the firstH7223 oneH7223 4is like the runningH4794 formH4794 of AhimaazH290 the sonH1121 of ZadokH6659.” And the kingH4428 saidH559, “5ThisH2088 is a goodH2896 manH376, and he is comingH935 with goodH2896 newsH1309.”
