2 Samuel 19:2

Hebrew Names version (HNV)

The victory that day was turned into mourning to all the people; for the people heard say that day, The king grieves for his son.

See the chapter Copy

Now Yo'av the son of Tzeru'yah perceived that the king's heart was toward Avshalom.

It was told Yo'av, Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Avshalom.

The people got them by stealth that day into the city, as people who are ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.

In the light of the king's face is life. His favor is like a cloud of the spring rain.

The king's wrath is like the roaring of a lion, but his favor is like dew on the grass.
