2 Samuel 18:27

²⁵And the watchman cried out, and reported to the king. And the king said, If he be alone, there are good tidings in his mouth. And the man came and drew near.

²⁶And the watchman saw another man running: and the watchman cried at the gate, and said, And look, another man running alone. And the king said, He also brings glad tidings.

— 2 Samuel 18:27 —

²⁸And Ahimaaz cried out and said to the king, Peace. And he did obeisance to the king with his face to the ground, and said, Blessed be the Lord thy God, who has delivered up the men that lifted up their hands against my lord the king.

²⁹And the king said, Is the young man Absalom safe? and Ahimaaz said, I saw a great multitude at the time of Joab’s sending the king’s servant and thy servant, and I knew not what was there.
