Löydetty 2488 Tulokset: King Saul
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)
The sentry said, 'I recognise the way the first man runs; Ahimaaz son of Zadok runs like that.' 'He is a good man', said the king, 'and comes with good news.' (2 Samuel 18, 27)
Ahimaaz went up to the king. 'All hail!' he said, prostrating himself on the ground before the king. 'Blessed be Yahweh your God', he said, 'who has handed over the men who rebelled against my lord the king!' (2 Samuel 18, 28)
'Is all well with young Absalom?' the king asked. Ahimaaz replied, 'I saw a great commotion when Joab, the king's servant, sent your servant off, but I do not know what it was.' (2 Samuel 18, 29)
The king said, 'Go and stand over there.' He stood to one side and waited. (2 Samuel 18, 30)
Then the Cushite arrived. 'Good news for my lord the king!' the Cushite shouted. 'Today Yahweh has vindicated your cause, by ridding you of all who had risen up against you.' (2 Samuel 18, 31)
