And it was toldH5046 JoabH3097, Behold, the kingH4428 weepethH1058 and mournethH56 for AbsalomH53.
And the victoryH8668 that dayH3117 was turned into mourningH60 unto all the peopleH5971: for the peopleH5971 heardH8085 sayH559 that dayH3117 how the kingH4428 was grievedH6087 for his sonH1121. {victory: Heb. salvation, or, deliverance}
And the peopleH5971 gatH935 them by stealthH1589 that dayH3117 into the cityH5892, as peopleH5971 being ashamedH3637 steal awayH1589 when they fleeH5127 in battleH4421.
But the kingH4428 coveredH3813 his faceH6440, and the kingH4428 criedH2199 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, O my sonH1121 AbsalomH53, O AbsalomH53, my sonH1121, my sonH1121!
And JoabH3097 cameH935 into the houseH1004 to the kingH4428, and saidH559, Thou hast shamedH3001 this dayH3117 the facesH6440 of all thy servantsH5650, which this dayH3117 have savedH4422 thy lifeH5315, and the livesH5315 of thy sonsH1121 and of thy daughtersH1323, and the livesH5315 of thy wivesH802, and the livesH5315 of thy concubinesH6370;
In that thou lovestH157 thine enemiesH8130, and hatestH8130 thy friendsH157. For thou hast declaredH5046 this dayH3117, that thou regardest neither princesH8269 nor servantsH5650: for this dayH3117 I perceiveH3045, that ifH3863 AbsalomH53 had livedH2416, and all we had diedH4191 this dayH3117, then it had pleased thee wellH3477+H5869. {in…: Heb. By loving, etc} {that thou regardest…: Heb. that princes or servants are not to thee}
Now therefore ariseH6965, go forthH3318, and speakH1696 comfortablyH3820 unto thy servantsH5650: for I swearH7650 by the LORDH3068, if thou go not forthH3318, there will not tarryH3885 oneH376 with thee this nightH3915: and that will be worseH7489 unto thee than all the evilH7451 that befellH935 thee from thy youthH5271 until now. {comfortably…: Heb. to the heart of thy servants}
Then the kingH4428 aroseH6965, and satH3427 in the gateH8179. And they toldH5046 unto all the peopleH5971, sayingH559, Behold, the kingH4428 doth sitH3427 in the gateH8179. And all the peopleH5971 cameH935 beforeH6440 the kingH4428: for IsraelH3478 had fledH5127 every manH376 to his tentH168.
And all the peopleH5971 were at strifeH1777 throughout all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, The kingH4428 savedH5337 us out of the handH3709 of our enemiesH341, and he deliveredH4422 us out of the handH3709 of the PhilistinesH6430; and now he is fledH1272 out of the landH776 for AbsalomH53.
And AbsalomH53, whom we anointedH4886 over us, is deadH4191 in battleH4421. Now therefore why speakH2790 ye not a word of bringingH7725 the kingH4428 backH7725? {speak…: Heb. are ye silent?}
And kingH4428 DavidH1732 sentH7971 to ZadokH6659 and to AbiatharH54 the priestsH3548, sayingH559, SpeakH1696 unto the eldersH2205 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, Why are ye the lastH314 to bringH7725 the kingH4428 backH7725 to his houseH1004? seeing the speechH1697 of all IsraelH3478 is comeH935 to the kingH4428, even to his houseH1004.
Ye are my brethrenH251, ye are my bonesH6106 and my fleshH1320: wherefore then are ye the lastH314 to bring backH7725 the kingH4428?
And sayH559 ye to AmasaH6021, Art thou not of my boneH6106, and of my fleshH1320? GodH430 doH6213 so to me, and moreH3254 also, if thou be not captainH8269 of the hostH6635 beforeH6440 me continuallyH3117 in the roomH8478 of JoabH3097.
And he bowedH5186 the heartH3824 of all the menH376 of JudahH3063, even as the heart of oneH259 manH376; so that they sentH7971 this word unto the kingH4428, ReturnH7725 thou, and all thy servantsH5650.
So the kingH4428 returnedH7725, and cameH935 to JordanH3383. And JudahH3063 cameH935 to GilgalH1537, to goH3212 to meetH7125 the kingH4428, to conductH5674 the kingH4428 overH5674 JordanH3383.
And ShimeiH8096 the sonH1121 of GeraH1617, a BenjamiteH1145, which was of BahurimH980, hastedH4116 and came downH3381 with the menH376 of JudahH3063 to meetH7125 kingH4428 DavidH1732.
And there were a thousandH505 menH376 of BenjaminH1145 with him, and ZibaH6717 the servantH5288 of the houseH1004 of SaulH7586, and his fifteenH2568+H6240 sonsH1121 and his twentyH6242 servantsH5650 with him; and they went overH6743 JordanH3383 beforeH6440 the kingH4428.
And there went overH5674 a ferry boatH5679 to carry overH5674 the king'sH4428 householdH1004, and to doH6213 what he thoughtH5869 goodH2896. And ShimeiH8096 the sonH1121 of GeraH1617 fell downH5307 beforeH6440 the kingH4428, as he was come overH5674 JordanH3383; {what…: Heb. the good in his eyes}
And saidH559 unto the kingH4428, Let not my lordH113 imputeH2803 iniquityH5771 unto me, neither do thou rememberH2142 that which thy servantH5650 did perverselyH5753 the dayH3117 that my lordH113 the kingH4428 went outH3318 of JerusalemH3389, that the kingH4428 should takeH7760 it to his heartH3820.
For thy servantH5650 doth knowH3045 that I have sinnedH2398: therefore, behold, I am comeH935 the firstH7223 this dayH3117 of all the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 to go downH3381 to meetH7125 my lordH113 the kingH4428.
But AbishaiH52 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 answeredH6030 and saidH559, Shall not ShimeiH8096 be put to deathH4191 for this, because he cursedH7043 the LORD'SH3068 anointedH4899?
And DavidH1732 saidH559, What have I to do with you, ye sonsH1121 of ZeruiahH6870, that ye should this dayH3117 be adversariesH7854 unto me? shall there any manH376 be put to deathH4191 this dayH3117 in IsraelH3478? for do not I knowH3045 that I am this dayH3117 kingH4428 over IsraelH3478?
Therefore the kingH4428 saidH559 unto ShimeiH8096, Thou shalt not dieH4191. And the kingH4428 swareH7650 unto him.
And MephiboshethH4648 the sonH1121 of SaulH7586 came downH3381 to meetH7125 the kingH4428, and had neitherH3808 dressedH6213 his feetH7272, nor trimmedH6213 his beardH8222, nor washedH3526 his clothesH899, from the dayH3117 the kingH4428 departedH3212 until the dayH3117 he cameH935 again in peaceH7965.
And it came to pass, when he was comeH935 to JerusalemH3389 to meetH7125 the kingH4428, that the kingH4428 saidH559 unto him, Wherefore wentestH1980 not thou with me, MephiboshethH4648?
And he answeredH559, My lordH113, O kingH4428, my servantH5650 deceivedH7411 me: for thy servantH5650 saidH559, I will saddleH2280 me an assH2543, that I may rideH7392 thereon, and goH3212 to the kingH4428; because thy servantH5650 is lameH6455.
And he hath slanderedH7270 thy servantH5650 unto my lordH113 the kingH4428; but my lordH113 the kingH4428 is as an angelH4397 of GodH430: doH6213 therefore what is goodH2896 in thine eyesH5869.
For all of my father'sH1 houseH1004 were butH3808 deadH4194 menH582 before my lordH113 the kingH4428: yet didst thou setH7896 thy servantH5650 among them that did eatH398 at thine own tableH7979. What rightH6666 therefore haveH3426 I yet to cryH2199 any more unto the kingH4428? {dead…: Heb. men of death}
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto him, Why speakestH1696 thou any more of thy mattersH1697? I have saidH559, Thou and ZibaH6717 divideH2505 the landH7704.
And MephiboshethH4648 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, Yea, let him takeH3947 all, forasmuchH310 asH834 my lordH113 the kingH4428 is come againH935 in peaceH7965 unto his own houseH1004.
And BarzillaiH1271 the GileaditeH1569 came downH3381 from RogelimH7274, and went overH5674 JordanH3383 with the kingH4428, to conductH7971 him over JordanH3383.
Now BarzillaiH1271 was a veryH3966 agedH2204 man, even fourscoreH8084 yearsH8141 oldH1121: and he had provided the kingH4428 of sustenanceH3557 while he layH7871 at MahanaimH4266; for he was a veryH3966 greatH1419 manH376.
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto BarzillaiH1271, Come thou overH5674 with me, and I will feedH3557 thee with me in JerusalemH3389.
And BarzillaiH1271 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, How longH3117 have I to liveH8141+H2416, that I should go upH5927 with the kingH4428 unto JerusalemH3389? {How…: Heb. How many days are the years of my life}
I am this dayH3117 fourscoreH8084 yearsH8141 oldH1121: and can I discernH3045 between goodH2896 and evilH7451? can thy servantH5650 tasteH2938 whatH834 I eatH398 or whatH834 I drinkH8354? can I hearH8085 any more the voiceH6963 of singing menH7891 and singing womenH7891? wherefore then should thy servantH5650 be yet a burdenH4853 unto my lordH113 the kingH4428?
Thy servantH5650 will goH5674 a little wayH4592 overH5674 JordanH3383 with the kingH4428: and why should the kingH4428 recompenseH1580 it me with such a rewardH1578?
Let thy servantH5650, I pray thee, turn back againH7725, that I may dieH4191 in mine own cityH5892, and be buried by the graveH6913 of my fatherH1 and of my motherH517. But behold thy servantH5650 ChimhamH3643; let him go overH5674 with my lordH113 the kingH4428; and doH6213 to him what shall seem goodH2896+H5869 unto thee.
And the kingH4428 answeredH559, ChimhamH3643 shall goH5674 over with me, and I will doH6213 to him that which shall seem goodH2896+H5869 unto thee: and whatsoever thou shalt requireH977 of me, that will I doH6213 for thee. {require: Heb. choose}
And all the peopleH5971 went overH5674 JordanH3383. And when the kingH4428 was come overH5674, the kingH4428 kissedH5401 BarzillaiH1271, and blessedH1288 him; and he returnedH7725 unto his own placeH4725.
Then the kingH4428 went onH5674 to GilgalH1537, and ChimhamH3643 went onH5674 with him: and all the peopleH5971 of JudahH3063 conductedH5674+H5674 the kingH4428, and also halfH2677 the peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478. {Chimham: Heb. Chimhan}
And, behold, all the menH376 of IsraelH3478 cameH935 to the kingH4428, and saidH559 unto the kingH4428, Why have our brethrenH251 the menH376 of JudahH3063 stolen thee awayH1589, and have broughtH5674 the kingH4428, and his householdH1004, and all David'sH1732 menH582 with him, over JordanH3383?
And all the menH376 of JudahH3063 answeredH6030 the menH376 of IsraelH3478, Because the kingH4428 is near of kinH7138 to us: wherefore then be ye angryH2734 for this matterH1697? have we eatenH398 at allH398 of the king'sH4428 cost? or hath he givenH5375 us any giftH5379?
And the menH376 of IsraelH3478 answeredH6030 the menH376 of JudahH3063, and saidH559, We have tenH6235 partsH3027 in the kingH4428, and weH589 have also more right in DavidH1732 than ye: why then did ye despiseH7043 us, that our adviceH1697 should not be firstH7223 had in bringing backH7725 our kingH4428? And the wordsH1697 of the menH376 of JudahH3063 were fiercerH7185 than the wordsH1697 of the menH376 of IsraelH3478. {despise…: Heb. set us at light}

If the spiritH7307 of the rulerH4910 rise upH5927 against thee, leaveH3240 not thy placeH4725; for yieldingH4832 pacifiethH3240 greatH1419 offencesH2399.
Did I thenH3117 beginH2490 to enquireH7592 of GodH430 for him? be it far from meH2486: let not the kingH4428 imputeH7760 any thingH1697 unto his servantH5650, nor to all the houseH1004 of my fatherH1: for thy servantH5650 knewH3045 nothingH1697 of all this, lessH6996 or moreH1419. {less…: Heb. little or great}
O rememberH2142 not against us formerH7223 iniquitiesH5771: let thy tender merciesH7356 speedilyH4118 preventH6923 us: for we are broughtH1809 veryH3966 lowH1809. {former…: or, the iniquities of them that were before us}
And when kingH4428 DavidH1732 cameH935 to BahurimH980, behold, thence came outH3318 a manH376 of the familyH4940 of the houseH1004 of SaulH7586, whose nameH8034 was ShimeiH8096, the sonH1121 of GeraH1617: he came forthH3318, and cursedH7043 still as he cameH3318. {he came forth…: or, he still came forth and cursed}
And he castH5619 stonesH68 at DavidH1732, and at all the servantsH5650 of kingH4428 DavidH1732: and all the peopleH5971 and all the mighty menH1368 were on his right handH3225 and on his leftH8040.
And thus saidH559 ShimeiH8096 when he cursedH7043, Come outH3318, come outH3318, thou bloodyH1818 manH376, and thou manH376 of BelialH1100: {bloody…: Heb. man of blood}
The LORDH3068 hath returnedH7725 upon thee all the bloodH1818 of the houseH1004 of SaulH7586, in whose stead thou hast reignedH4427; and the LORDH3068 hath deliveredH5414 the kingdomH4410 into the handH3027 of AbsalomH53 thy sonH1121: and, behold, thou art taken in thy mischiefH7451, because thou art a bloodyH1818 manH376. {behold…: Heb. behold thee in thy evil}
Then saidH559 AbishaiH52 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 unto the kingH4428, Why should this deadH4191 dogH3611 curseH7043 my lordH113 the kingH4428? let me go overH5674, I pray thee, and take offH5493 his headH7218.
And AbsalomH53 her brotherH251 saidH559 unto her, Hath AmnonH550 thy brotherH251 been with thee? but hold now thy peaceH2790, my sisterH269: he is thy brotherH251; regardH7896+H3820 not this thingH1697. So TamarH8559 remainedH3427 desolateH8074 in her brotherH251 Absalom'sH53 houseH1004. {Amnon: Heb. Aminon} {regard…: Heb. set not thy heart} {desolate: Heb. and desolate}
BlessedH835 is the manH120 unto whom the LORDH3068 imputethH2803 not iniquityH5771, and in whose spiritH7307 there is no guileH7423.
I, even I, am he that blotteth outH4229 thy transgressionsH6588 for mine own sake, and will not rememberH2142 thy sinsH2403.
And the kingH4428 saidH559, What have I to do with you, ye sonsH1121 of ZeruiahH6870? so let him curseH7043, because the LORDH3068 hath saidH559 unto him, CurseH7043 DavidH1732. Who shall then sayH559, Wherefore hast thou done soH6213?
And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbishaiH52, and to all his servantsH5650, Behold, my sonH1121, which came forthH3318 of my bowelsH4578, seekethH1245 my lifeH5315: how much more now may this BenjamiteH1145 do it? let him aloneH3240, and let him curseH7043; for the LORDH3068 hath biddenH559 him.
It may be that the LORDH3068 will lookH7200 on mine afflictionH5869+H6040, and that the LORDH3068 will requiteH7725 me goodH2896 for his cursingH7045 this dayH3117. {affliction: or, tears: Heb. eye}
And as DavidH1732 and his menH582 wentH3212 by the wayH1870, ShimeiH8096 went alongH1980 on the hill'sH2022 sideH6763 over againstH5980 him, and cursedH7043 as he wentH1980, and threwH5619 stonesH68 atH5980 him, and castH6080 dustH6083. {cast…: Heb. dusted him with dust}
And the kingH4428, and all the peopleH5971 that were with him, cameH935 wearyH5889, and refreshedH5314 themselves there.
Now therefore let not my lordH113 the kingH4428 takeH7760 the thingH1697 to his heartH3820, to thinkH559 that all the king'sH4428 sonsH1121 are deadH4191: for AmnonH550 only is deadH4191.
Even asG2509 DavidG1138 alsoG2532 describethG3004 the blessednessG3108 of the manG444, unto whomG3739 GodG2316 imputethG3049 righteousnessG1343 withoutG5565 worksG2041,
Saying, BlessedG3107 are they whoseG3739 iniquitiesG458 are forgivenG863, andG2532 whoseG3739 sinsG266 are coveredG1943.
BlessedG3107 is the manG435 to whomG3739 the LordG2962 willG3049 notG3364 imputeG3049 sinG266.
And they shall teachH3925 no more every manH376 his neighbourH7453, and every manH376 his brotherH251, sayingH559, KnowH3045 the LORDH3068: for they shall all knowH3045 me, from the leastH6996 of them unto the greatestH1419 of them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: for I will forgiveH5545 their iniquityH5771, and I will rememberH2142 their sinH2403 no more.
Then PharaohH6547 calledH7121 for MosesH4872 and AaronH175 in hasteH4116; and he saidH559, I have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068 your GodH430, and against you. {called: Heb. hastened to call}
LetH7760 not my lordH113, I pray thee, regardH3820 this manH376 of BelialH1100, even NabalH5037: for as his nameH8034 is, so is he; NabalH5037 is his nameH8034, and follyH5039 is with him: but I thine handmaidH519 sawH7200 not the young menH5288 of my lordH113, whom thou didst sendH7971. {regard: Heb. lay it to his heart} {Nabal: that is, Fool}
To witG5613, thatG3754 GodG2316 wasG2258 inG1722 ChristG5547, reconcilingG2644 the worldG2889 unto himselfG1438, notG3361 imputingG3049 theirG846 trespassesG3900 unto themG846; andG2532 hath committedG5087 untoG1722 usG2254 the wordG3056 of reconciliationG2643. {committed…: Gr. put in us}
Now therefore forgiveH5375, I pray thee, my sinH2403 only this onceH6471, and intreatH6279 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, that he may take awayH5493 from me this deathH4194 only.
