2 Samuel 19:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
19 7 Joab encourageth the king. 8 David is restored. 23 Shimei is pardoned. 24 Mephibosheth meeteth the king. 39 Barzillai departeth. 41 Israel striveth with Judah.
1 And it was told Joab, Behold, the King weepeth and mourneth for Absalom.
2 Therefore the [a]victory of that day was turned into mourning to all the people: for the people heard say that day, The King sorroweth for his son.
3 And the people went that day into the city [b]secretly, as people confounded hide themselves when they flee in battle.
