2 Samuel 15:13-15

Amplified Bible

David Flees Jerusalem

¹³ Then a messenger came to David, saying, “The hearts of the men of Israel are with Absalom.” ¹⁴ David said to all his ^[a]servants who were with him at Jerusalem, “Arise, let us flee, or none of us will escape from Absalom! Go in haste, or he will overtake us quickly and bring disaster on us and strike the city with the edge of the sword.” ¹⁵ The king’s servants said to him, “Listen, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king decides.”
