H559Then said[H8804] H290AhimaazH1121the sonH6659of ZadokH7323, Let me now run[H8799] H1319, and bearH4428the kingH1319tidings[H8762] H3068, how that the LORDH8199hath avenged[H8804] H3027him of his enemiesH341 [H8802] .
H8147Behold, they have there with them their twoH1121sonsH290, AhimaazH6659Zadok'sH3083son, and JonathanH54Abiathar'sH3027son; and by themH7971ye shall send[H8804] H1697unto me every thingH8085that ye can hear[H8799] .
H3569And, behold, CushiH935came[H8802] H3569; and CushiH559said[H8799] H1319, Tidings[H8691] H113, my lordH4428the kingH3068: for the LORDH8199hath avenged[H8804] H3117thee this dayH3027of all themH6965that rose up[H8801] against thee.
G27Dearly belovedG1556, avenge[G5723] G3361notG1438yourselvesG235, butG1325rather give[G5628] G5117placeG3709unto wrathG1063: forG1125it is written[G5769] G1557, VengeanceG1698is mineG1473; IG467will repay[G5692] G3004, saith[G5719] G2962the Lord.
H8199To judge[H8800] H3490the fatherlessH1790and the oppressedH582, that the manH776of the earthH3254may no more[H8686] H6206oppress[H8800] .
H7200Thou hast seen[H8804] H5027it; for thou beholdest[H8686] H5999mischiefH3708and spiteH5414, to requite[H8800] H3027it with thy handH2489: the poorH5800committeth[H8799] H5826himself unto thee; thou art the helper[H8802] H3490of the fatherless.
H3068The LORDH3045is known[H8738] H4941by the judgmentH6213which he executeth[H8804] H7563: the wickedH5367is snared[H8804] H6467in the workH3709of his own handsH1902. HiggaionH5542. Selah.
H6213For thou hast maintained[H8804] H4941my rightH1779and my causeH3427; thou satest[H8804] H3678in the throneH8199judging[H8802] H6664right.
H6965Arise[H8798] H3068, O LORDH639, in thine angerH5375, lift up[H8734] H5678thyself because of the rageH6887of mine enemies[H8802] H5782: and awake[H8798] H4941for me to the judgmentH6680that thou hast commanded[H8765] .
H7323But howsoever, said he, let me run[H8799] H559. And he said[H8799] H7323unto him, Run[H8798] H290. Then AhimaazH7323ran[H8799] H1870by the wayH3603of the plainH5674, and overran[H8799] H3569Cushi.
H3083Now JonathanH290and AhimaazH5975stayed[H8802] H5883by EnrogelH3201; for they might[H8799] H7200not be seen[H8736] H935to come[H8800] H5892into the cityH8198: and a wenchH1980went[H8804] H5046and told[H8689] H3212them; and they went[H8799] H5046and told[H8689] H4428kingH1732David.
H3097And JoabH559said[H8799] H376unto him, ThouH1309shalt not bear tidingsH3117this dayH1319, but thou shalt bear tidings[H8765] H312anotherH3117dayH3117: but this dayH1319thou shalt bear no tidings[H8762] H4428, because the king'sH1121sonH4191is dead[H8804] .
H7323One post[H8801] H7323shall run[H8799] H7125to meet[H8800] H7323another[H8801] H5046, and one messenger[H8688] H7125to meet[H8800] H5046another[H8688] H5046, to shew[H8687] H4428the kingH894of BabylonH5892that his cityH3920is taken[H8738] H7097at one end,
H4428The kingH559said[H8799] H6659also unto ZadokH3548the priestH7200, Art not thou a seer[H8802] H7725? return[H8798] H5892into the cityH7965in peaceH8147, and your twoH1121sonsH290with you, AhimaazH1121thy sonH3083, and JonathanH1121the sonH54of Abiathar.
