David Hears of Absalom’s Death
19Then Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said, i“Let me run and carry news to the king that jthe Lord has delivered him from the hand of his enemies.”2 Samuel 18:22
22Then Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said again to Joab, “Come what may, let me also run after the Cushite.” And Joab said, “Why will you run, my son, seeing that you will have no reward for the news?”2 Samuel 18:27-29
27The watchman said, “I think the running of the first is klike the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok.” And the king said, l“He is a good man and comes with good news.”28Then Ahimaaz cried out to the king, “All is well.” And he bowed before the king with his face to the earth and said, m“Blessed be the Lord your God, who has delivered up the men who raised their hand against my lord the king.” 29And the king said, n“Is it well with the young man Absalom?” Ahimaaz answered, “When Joab sent the king’s servant, your servant, I saw a great commotion, but I do not know what it was.”
