Löydetty 2202 Tulokset: King Joash
Send with all speed to David and say, "Do not camp in the desert passes tonight, but get through them as fast as you can, or the king and his whole army may be annihilated." ' (2 Samuel 17, 16)
Jonathan and Ahimaaz were posted at the Fuller's Spring; a servant-girl was to go and warn them and they in turn were to warn King David, since they could not give themselves away by coming into the city themselves. (2 Samuel 17, 17)
When they had gone, the men climbed out of the storage-well and went to warn King David. 'Set out!' they told David. 'Cross the water quickly, for Ahithophel has given such and such advice against you!' (2 Samuel 17, 21)
David said, 'I will do what you think best.' And the king stood beside the gate as the troops marched out by their hundreds and their thousands. (2 Samuel 18, 4)
The king gave orders to Joab, Abishai and Ittai, 'For my sake, treat young Absalom gently!' And the troops all heard the king give all the commanders these orders about Absalom. (2 Samuel 18, 5)
The man replied to Joab, 'Even if I could feel the weight of a thousand silver shekels in my hand, I would not lift my hand against the king's son. In our own hearing, the king gave you and Abishai and Ittai these orders, "For my sake, spare young Absalom." (2 Samuel 18, 12)
Even if I had deceived myself, nothing stays hidden from the king and you would have dissociated yourself from me.' (2 Samuel 18, 13)
Now, during his lifetime, Absalom had made and erected a pillar to himself, which is in the Valley of the King. 'I have no son', he said, 'to preserve the memory of my name.' He gave his own name to the pillar, and today it is still called Absalom's Monument. (2 Samuel 18, 18)
Ahimaaz son of Zadok said, 'Let me run and tell the king the good news that Yahweh has vindicated his cause by ridding him of his enemies.' (2 Samuel 18, 19)
But Joab said, 'Today you would be no bearer of good news, some other day you may be; but today you would not be bringing good news, since the king's son is dead.' (2 Samuel 18, 20)
Joab then said to the Cushite, 'Go and tell the king what you have seen.' The Cushite prostrated himself to Joab and ran off. (2 Samuel 18, 21)
The sentry called down to the king and told him. The king said, 'If he is alone, he is bringing good news.' (2 Samuel 18, 25)
