H5046
And it was told
H3097
Joab,
H2009
Behold,
H4428
the king
H1058
weeps
H56
and mourns
H53
for Absalom.
2
H8668
And the victory
H3117
that day
H60
was turned into mourning
H3605
to all
H5971
the people:
H5971
for the people
H8085
heard
H559
say
H3117
that day
H4428
how the king
H6087
was grieved
H1121
for his son.
3
H5971
And the people
H935
got
H1589
them by stealth
H3117
that day
H5892
into the city,
H5971
as people
H3637
being ashamed
H1589
steal
H5127
away when they flee
H4421
in battle.
4
H4428
But the king
H3813
covered
H6440
his face,
H4428
and the king
H2199
cried
H1419
with a loud
H6963
voice,
H1121
O my son
H53
Absalom,
H53
O Absalom,
H1121
my son,
H1121
my son!
5
H3097
And Joab
H935
came
H1004
into the house
H4428
to the king,
H559
and said,
H3001
You have shamed
H3117
this day
H6440
the faces
H3605
of all
H5650
your servants,
H3117
which this day
H4422
have saved
H5315
your life,
H5315
and the lives
H1121
of your sons
H1323
and of your daughters,
H5315
and the lives
H802
of your wives,
H5315
and the lives
H6370
of your concubines;
6
H157
In that you love
H8130
your enemies,
H8130
and hate
H157
your friends.
H5046
For you have declared
H3117
this day,
H369
that you regard neither
H8269
princes
H5650
nor servants:
H3117
for this day
H3045
I perceive,
H3863
that if
H53
Absalom
H2416
had lived,
H3605
and all
H4191
we had died
H3117
this day,
H227
then
H3477
it had pleased
H5869
you well.
7
H6258
Now
H6965
therefore arise,
H3318
go
H3318
forth,
H1696
and speak
H5921
comfortably
H3820
H5650
to your servants:
H7650
for I swear
H3068
by the LORD,
H3588
if
H3318
you go
H3318
not forth,
H3885
there will not tarry
H376
one
H3915
with you this night:
H7489
and that will be worse
H3605
to you than all
H7451
the evil
H935
that befell
H5271
you from your youth
H5704
until
H6258
now.
8
H4428
Then the king
H6965
arose,
H3427
and sat
H8179
in the gate.
H5046
And they told
H3605
to all
H5971
the people,
H559
saying,
H2009
Behold,
H4428
the king
H3427
does sit
H8179
in the gate.
H3605
And all
H5971
the people
H935
came
H6440
before
H4428
the king:
H3478
for Israel
H5127
had fled
H376
every man
H168
to his tent.
9
H3605
And all
H5971
the people
H1777
were at strife
H3605
throughout all
H7626
the tribes
H3478
of Israel,
H559
saying,
H4428
The king
H5337
saved
H3709
us out of the hand
H341
of our enemies,
H4422
and he delivered
H3709
us out of the hand
H6430
of the Philistines;
H6258
and now
H1272
he is fled
H776
out of the land
H53
for Absalom.
10
H53
And Absalom,
H834
whom
H4886
we anointed
H5921
over
H4191
us, is dead
H4421
in battle.
H6258
Now
H4100
therefore why
H2790
speak
H7725
you not a word of bringing
H4428
the king
H7725
back?
11
H4428
And king
H1732
David
H7971
sent
H6659
to Zadok
H54
and to Abiathar
H3548
the priests,
H559
saying,
H1696
Speak
H2205
to the elders
H3063
of Judah,
H559
saying,
H4100
Why
H314
are you the last
H7725
to bring
H4428
the king
H7725
back
H1004
to his house?
H1697
seeing the speech
H3605
of all
H3478
Israel
H935
is come
H4428
to the king,
H1004
even to his house.
12
H251
You are my brothers,
H6106
you are my bones
H1320
and my flesh:
H4100
why
H314
then are you the last
H7725
to bring
H7725
back
H4428
the king?
13
H559
And say
H6021
you to Amasa,
H6106
Are you not of my bone,
H1320
and of my flesh?
H430
God
H6213
do
H3541
so
H3254
to me, and more
H3541
also,
H518
if
H8269
you be not captain
H6635
of the host
H6440
before
H3605
me continually
H3117
H8478
in the room
H3097
of Joab.
14
H5186
And he bowed
H3824
the heart
H3605
of all
H376
the men
H3063
of Judah,
H3824
even as the heart
H259
of one
H376
man;
H7971
so that they sent
H4428
this word to the king,
H7725
Return
H3605
you, and all
H5650
your servants.
15
H4428
So the king
H7725
returned,
H935
and came
H3383
to Jordan.
H3063
And Judah
H935
came
H1537
to Gilgal,
H3212
to go
H7125
to meet
H4428
the king,
H5674
to conduct
H4428
the king
H5674
over
H3383
Jordan.
16
H8096
And Shimei
H1121
the son
H1617
of Gera,
H1145
a Benjamite,
H834
which
H980
was of Bahurim,
H4116
hurried
H3381
and came
H3381
down
H376
with the men
H3063
of Judah
H7125
to meet
H4428
king
H1732
David.
17
H505
And there were a thousand
H376
men
H1144
of Benjamin
H6717
with him, and Ziba
H5288
the servant
H1004
of the house
H7586
of Saul,
H2568
and his fifteen
H6240
H1121
sons
H6242
and his twenty
H5650
servants
H6743
with him; and they went
H6743
over
H3383
Jordan
H6440
before
H4428
the king.
18
H5674
And there went
H5674
over
H5679
a ferry
H5679
boat
H5674
to carry
H5674
over
H4428
the king’s
H1004
household,
H6213
and to do
H5869
what he thought
H2896
good.
H8096
And Shimei
H1121
the son
H1617
of Gera
H5307
fell
H6440
down before
H4428
the king,
H5674
as he was come
H5674
over
H3383
Jordan;
19
H559
And said
H4428
to the king,
H113
Let not my lord
H2803
impute
H5771
iniquity
H408
to me, neither
H2142
do you remember
H834
that which
H5650
your servant
H5753
did perversely
H3117
the day
H113
that my lord
H4428
the king
H3318
went
H3389
out of Jerusalem,
H4428
that the king
H7760
should take
H3820
it to his heart.
20
H5650
For your servant
H3045
does know
H2398
that I have sinned:
H2009
therefore, behold,
H935
I am come
H7223
the first
H3117
this day
H3605
of all
H1004
the house
H3130
of Joseph
H3381
to go
H3381
down
H7125
to meet
H113
my lord
H4428
the king.
21
H52
But Abishai
H1121
the son
H6870
of Zeruiah
H6030
answered
H559
and said,
H8096
Shall not Shimei
H4191
be put to death
H2063
for this,
H3588
because
H7043
he cursed
H3068
the LORD’s
H4899
anointed?
22
H1732
And David
H559
said,
H4100
What
H1121
have I to do with you, you sons
H6870
of Zeruiah,
H3117
that you should this day
H7854
be adversaries
H376
to me? shall there any man
H4191
be put to death
H3117
this day
H3478
in Israel?
H3045
for do not I know
H3117
that I am this day
H4428
king
H5921
over
H3478
Israel?
23
H4428
Therefore the king
H559
said
H8096
to Shimei,
H4191
You shall not die.
H4428
And the king
H7650
swore to him.
24
H4648
And Mephibosheth
H1121
the son
H7586
of Saul
H3381
came
H3381
down
H7125
to meet
H4428
the king,
H3808
and had neither
H6213
dressed
H7272
his feet,
H3808
nor
H6213
trimmed
H8222
his beard,
H3808
nor
H3526
washed
H899
his clothes,
H3117
from the day
H4428
the king
H3212
departed
H5704
until
H3117
the day
H935
he came
H7965
again in peace.
25
H1961
And it came
H3588
to pass, when
H935
he was come
H3389
to Jerusalem
H7125
to meet
H4428
the king,
H4428
that the king
H559
said
H4100
to him, Why
H1980
went
H4648
not you with me, Mephibosheth?
26
H559
And he answered,
H113
My lord,
H4428
O king,
H5650
my servant
H7411
deceived
H5650
me: for your servant
H559
said,
H2280
I will saddle
H2543
me an ass,
H7392
that I may ride
H5921
thereon,
H3212
and go
H4428
to the king;
H3588
because
H5650
your servant
H6455
is lame.
27
H7270
And he has slandered
H5650
your servant
H113
to my lord
H4428
the king;
H113
but my lord
H4428
the king
H4397
is as an angel
H430
of God:
H6213
do
H2896
therefore what is good
H5869
in your eyes.
28
H3605
For all
H1
of my father’s
H1004
house
H4194
were but dead
H582
men
H113
before my lord
H4428
the king:
H7896
yet did you set
H5650
your servant
H398
among them that did eat
H7979
at your own table.
H4100
What
H6666
right
H3426
therefore have
H2199
I yet to cry
H5750
any more
H4428
to the king?
29
H4428
And the king
H559
said
H4100
to him, Why
H1696
speak
H5750
you any more
H1697
of your matters?
H559
I have said,
H6717
You and Ziba
H2505
divide
H7704
the land.
30
H4648
And Mephibosheth
H559
said
H4428
to the king,
H637
Yes,
H3947
let him take
H3605
all,
H310
for as much
H834
H113
as my lord
H4428
the king
H935
is come
H7725
again
H7965
in peace
H1004
to his own house.
31
H1271
And Barzillai
H1569
the Gileadite
H3381
came
H3381
down
H7274
from Rogelim,
H5674
and went
H5674
over
H3383
Jordan
H4428
with the king,
H7971
to conduct
H5674
him over
H3383
Jordan.
32
H1271
Now Barzillai
H3966
was a very
H2204
aged
H8084
man, even fourscore
H8141
years
H1121
old:
H4428
and he had provided the king
H3557
of sustenance
H7871
while he lay
H4266
at Mahanaim;
H3966
for he was a very
H1419
great
H376
man.
33
H4428
And the king
H559
said
H1271
to Barzillai,
H5674
Come
H5674
you over
H3557
with me, and I will feed
H3389
you with me in Jerusalem.
34
H1271
And Barzillai
H559
said
H4428
to the king,
H4100
How
H3117
long
H2416
have I to live,
H5927
that I should go
H4428
up with the king
H3389
to Jerusalem?
35
H3117
I am this day
H8084
fourscore
H8141
years
H1121
old:
H3045
and can I discern
H996
between
H2896
good
H7451
and evil?
H5650
can your servant
H2938
taste
H853
what
H834
H398
I eat
H854
or
H853
what
H834
H8354
I drink?
H8085
can I hear
H5750
any more
H693
the voice
H7891
of singing
H7891
men and singing
H4100
women? why
H5650
then should your servant
H5750
be yet
H4853
a burden
H113
to my lord
H4428
the king?
36
H5650
Your servant
H5674
will go
H4592
a little
H5674
way over
H3383
Jordan
H4428
with the king:
H4100
and why
H4428
should the king
H1580
recompense
H2063
it me with such
H1578
a reward?
37
H5650
Let your servant,
H4994
I pray
H7725
you, turn
H7725
back
H7725
again,
H4191
that I may die
H5892
in my own city,
H6913
and be buried by the grave
H1
of my father
H517
and of my mother.
H2009
But behold
H5650
your servant
H3643
Chimham;
H5674
let him go
H5674
over
H113
with my lord
H4428
the king;
H6213
and do
H853
to him what
H834
H1961
shall seem
H5869
H2896
good to you.
38
H4428
And the king
H559
answered,
H3643
Chimham
H5674
shall go
H5674
over
H6213
with me, and I will do
H1961
to him that which shall seem
H5869
H2896
good
H3605
to you: and whatever
H834
H977
you shall require
H6213
of me, that will I do for you.
39
H3605
And all
H5971
the people
H5674
went
H5674
over
H3383
Jordan.
H4428
And when the king
H5674
was come
H5674
over,
H4428
the king
H5401
kissed
H1271
Barzillai,
H1288
and blessed
H7725
him; and he returned
H4725
to his own place.
40
H4428
Then the king
H5674
went
H1537
on to Gilgal,
H3643
and Chimham
H5674
went
H3605
on with him: and all
H5971
the people
H3063
of Judah
H5674
conducted
H4428
the king,
H1571
and also
H2677
half
H5971
the people
H3478
of Israel.
41
H2009
And, behold,
H3605
all
H376
the men
H3478
of Israel
H935
came
H4428
to the king,
H559
and said
H4428
to the king,
H4069
Why
H251
have our brothers
H376
the men
H3063
of Judah
H1589
stolen
H5674
you away, and have brought
H4428
the king,
H1004
and his household,
H3605
and all
H1732
David’s
H582
men
H5674
with him, over
H3383
Jordan?
42
H3605
And all
H376
the men
H3063
of Judah
H6030
answered
H376
the men
H3478
of Israel,
H3588
Because
H4428
the king
H7138
is near
H4100
of kin to us: why
H2734
then be you angry
H2088
for this
H1697
matter?
H398
have we eaten
H4428
at all of the king’s
H5375
cost? or has he given
H5379
us any gift?
43
H376
And the men
H3478
of Israel
H6030
answered
H376
the men
H3063
of Judah,
H559
and said,
H6235
We have ten
H4428
parts in the king,
H1571
and we have also
H1732
more right in David
H4069
than you: why
H7043
then did you despise
H1697
us, that our advice
H7223
should not be first
H7725
had in bringing
H7725
back
H4428
our king?
H1697
And the words
H376
of the men
H3063
of Judah
H7185
were fiercer
H1697
than the words
H376
of the men
H3478
of Israel.
