2 Samuel 18:18-20
18Now AbsalomH53 in his lifetimeH2416 had takenH3947 and reared upH5324 for himself a pillarH4678, which is in the king’sH4428 daleH6010: for he saidH559, I have no sonH1121 to keep my nameH8034 in remembranceH2142: and he calledH7121 the pillarH4678 after his own nameH8034: and it is calledH7121 unto this dayH3117, Absalom’sH53 placeH3027.
19Then saidH559 AhimaazH290 the sonH1121 of ZadokH6659, Let me now runH7323, and bearH1319 the kingH4428 tidingsH1319, how that YhwhH3068 hath avengedH8199 him of his enemiesH341H3027.1 20And JoabH3097 saidH559 unto him, ThouH376 shalt not bear tidingsH1309 this dayH3117, but thou shalt bear tidingsH1319 anotherH312 dayH3117: but this dayH3117 thou shalt bear no tidingsH1319, because the king’sH4428 sonH1121 is deadH4191.2
