The king asked, “Is young Absalom all right?”
But Ahimaaz son of Zadok begged Joab again, “No matter what happens, please let me also run after the Ethiopian!”
Then the king said, “Step over here and wait.” Ahimaaz went there and stood there waiting.
The king asked the Ethiopian, “Is young Absalom all right?”
Joab asked Amasa, “How are you doing, brother?”
Please run now to meet her! Say to her, ‘{What’s wrong?} Are you all right? Is your husband all right? Is the child all right?’”
