2 Samuel 17:19-20

Leeser(i) 19 And the wife took and spread a covering over the well’s mouth, and scattered ground corn thereupon; so that nothing was perceived. 20 And Abshalom’s servants came to the woman into the house, and they said, Where are Achima’az and Jonathan? And the woman said unto them, They are passed over the brook of water. And they sought, but could not find them; and they returned to Jerusalem.
