absalom <2SA3 -3> And his second, Chileab, of Abigail the wife

of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, {Absalom} the son of

Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur;


absalom <2SA13 -1> And it came to pass after this, that

{Absalom} the son of David had a fair sister, whose name [was]

Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.


absalom <2SA13 -20> And {Absalom} her brother said unto her,

Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but hold now thy peace,

my sister: he [is] thy brother; regard not this thing. So Tamar

remained desolate in her brother Absalom's house.


absalom <2SA13 -22> And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon

neither good nor bad: for {Absalom} hated Amnon, because he had

forced his sister Tamar.


absalom <2SA13 -22> And {Absalom} spake unto his brother Amnon

neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had

forced his sister Tamar.


absalom <2SA13 -23> And it came to pass after two full years,

that {Absalom} had sheepshearers in Baalhazor, which [is] beside

Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king's sons.


absalom <2SA13 -23> And it came to pass after two full years,

that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baalhazor, which [is] beside

Ephraim: and {Absalom} invited all the king's sons.


absalom <2SA13 -24> And {Absalom} came to the king, and said,

Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers; let the king, I

beseech thee, and his servants go with thy servant.


absalom <2SA13 -25> And the king said to {Absalom}, Nay, my son,

let us not all now go, lest we be chargeable unto thee. And he

pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.


absalom <2SA13 -26> Then said {Absalom}, If not, I pray thee,

let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why

should he go with thee?


absalom <2SA13 -27> But {Absalom} pressed him, that he let Amnon

and all the king's sons go with him.


absalom <2SA13 -28> Now {Absalom} had commanded his servants,

saying, Mark ye now when Amnon's heart is merry with wine, and

when I say unto you, Smite Amnon; then kill him, fear not: have

not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.


absalom <2SA13 -29> And the servants of {Absalom} did unto Amnon

as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and

every man gat him up upon his mule, and fled.


absalom <2SA13 -29> And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon

as {Absalom} had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and

every man gat him up upon his mule, and fled.


absalom <2SA13 -30> And it came to pass, while they were in the

way, that tidings came to David, saying, {Absalom} hath slain

all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.


absalom <2SA13 -32> And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's

brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose [that] they

have slain all the young men the king's sons; for Amnon only is

dead: for by the appointment of {Absalom} this hath been

determined


 from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.


absalom <2SA13 -34> But {Absalom} fled. And the young man that

kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold,

there came much people by the way of the hill side behind him.


absalom <2SA13 -37> But {Absalom} fled, and went to Talmai, the

son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And [David] mourned for his son

every day.


absalom <2SA13 -38> So {Absalom} fled, and went to Geshur, and

was there three years.


absalom <2SA13 -39> And [the soul of] king David longed to go

forth unto {Absalom}: for he was comforted concerning Amnon,

seeing he was dead.


absalom <2SA14 -1> Now Joab the son of Zeruiah perceived that

the king's heart [was] toward {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA14 -21> And the king said unto Joab, Behold now, I

have done this thing: go therefore, bring the young man

{Absalom} again.


absalom <2SA14 -23> So Joab arose and went to Geshur, and

brought {Absalom} to Jerusalem.


absalom <2SA14 -24> And the king said, Let him turn to his own

house, and let him not see my face. So {Absalom} returned to his

own house, and saw not the king's face.


absalom <2SA14 -25> But in all Israel there was none to be so

much praised as {Absalom} for his beauty: from the sole of his

foot even to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him.


absalom <2SA14 -27> And unto {Absalom} there were born three

sons, and one daughter, whose name [was] Tamar: she was a woman

of a fair countenance.


absalom <2SA14 -28> So {Absalom} dwelt two full years in

Jerusalem, and saw not the king's face.


absalom <2SA14 -29> Therefore {Absalom} sent for Joab, to have

sent him to the king; but he would not come to him: and when he

sent again the second time, he would not come.


absalom <2SA14 -31> Then Joab arose, and came to {Absalom} unto

[his] house, and said unto him, Wherefore have thy servants set

my field on fire?


absalom <2SA14 -32> And {Absalom} answered Joab, Behold, I sent

unto thee, saying, Come hither, that I may send thee to the king,

 to say, Wherefore am I come from Geshur? [it had been] good for

me [to have been] there still: now therefore let me see the k


ing's face; and if there be [any] iniquity in me, let him kill

me.


absalom <2SA14 -33> So Joab came to the king, and told him: and

when he had called for {Absalom}, he came to the king, and bowed

himself on his face to the ground before the king: and the king

kissed Absalom.


absalom <2SA14 -33> So Joab came to the king, and told him: and

when he had called for Absalom, he came to the king, and bowed

himself on his face to the ground before the king: and the king

kissed {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA15 -1> And it came to pass after this, that

{Absalom} prepared him chariots and horses, and fifty men to run

before him.


absalom <2SA15 -2> And Absalom rose up early, and stood beside

the way of the gate: and it was [so], that when any man that had

a controversy came to the king for judgment, then {Absalom}

called unto him, and said, Of what city [art] thou? And he said,

Th


y servant [is] of one of the tribes of Israel.


absalom <2SA15 -2> And {Absalom} rose up early, and stood beside

the way of the gate: and it was [so], that when any man that had

a controversy came to the king for judgment, then Absalom called

unto him, and said, Of what city [art] thou? And he said, Th


y servant [is] of one of the tribes of Israel.


absalom <2SA15 -3> And {Absalom} said unto him, See, thy matters

[are] good and right; but [there is] no man [deputed] of the

king to hear thee.


absalom <2SA15 -4> {Absalom} said moreover, Oh that I were made

judge in the land, that every man which hath any suit or cause

might come unto me, and I would do him justice!


absalom <2SA15 -6> And on this manner did {Absalom} to all

Israel that came to the king for judgment: so Absalom stole the

hearts of the men of Israel.


absalom <2SA15 -6> And on this manner did Absalom to all Israel

that came to the king for judgment: so {Absalom} stole the

hearts of the men of Israel.


absalom <2SA15 -7> And it came to pass after forty years, that

{Absalom} said unto the king, I pray thee, let me go and pay my

vow, which I have vowed unto the LORD, in Hebron.


absalom <2SA15 -10> But {Absalom} sent spies throughout all the

tribes of Israel, saying, As soon as ye hear the sound of the

trumpet, then ye shall say, Absalom reigneth in Hebron.


absalom <2SA15 -10> But Absalom sent spies throughout all the

tribes of Israel, saying, As soon as ye hear the sound of the

trumpet, then ye shall say, {Absalom} reigneth in Hebron.


absalom <2SA15 -11> And with {Absalom} went two hundred men out

of Jerusalem, [that were] called; and they went in their

simplicity, and they knew not any thing.


absalom <2SA15 -12> And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite,

 David's counsellor, from his city, [even] from Giloh, while he

offered sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong; for the

people increased continually with {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA15 -12> And {Absalom} sent for Ahithophel the

Gilonite, David's counsellor, from his city, [even] from Giloh,

while he offered sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong; for

the people increased continually with Absalom.


absalom <2SA15 -13> And there came a messenger to David, saying,

The hearts of the men of Israel are after {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA15 -14> And David said unto all his servants that

[were] with him at Jerusalem, Arise, and let us flee; for we

shall not [else] escape from {Absalom}: make speed to depart,

lest he overtake us suddenly, and bring evil upon us, and smite

the ci


ty with the edge of the sword.


absalom <2SA15 -31> And [one] told David, saying, Ahithophel

[is] among the conspirators with {Absalom}. And David said, O

LORD, I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into

foolishness.


absalom <2SA15 -34> But if thou return to the city, and say unto

{Absalom}, I will be thy servant, O king; [as] I [have been] thy

father's servant hitherto, so [will] I now also [be] thy servant:

 then mayest thou for me defeat the counsel of Ahithophel.


absalom <2SA15 -37> So Hushai David's friend came into the city,

and {Absalom} came into Jerusalem.


absalom <2SA16 -8> The LORD hath returned upon thee all the

blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned;

and the LORD hath delivered the kingdom into the hand of

{Absalom} thy son: and, behold, thou [art taken] in thy mischief,

 because th


ou [art] a bloody man.


absalom <2SA16 -15> And {Absalom}, and all the people the men of

Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.


absalom <2SA16 -16> And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite,

 David's friend, was come unto {Absalom}, that Hushai said unto

Absalom, God save the king, God save the king.


absalom <2SA16 -16> And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite,

 David's friend, was come unto Absalom, that Hushai said unto

{Absalom}, God save the king, God save the king.


absalom <2SA16 -17> And {Absalom} said to Hushai, [Is] this thy

kindness to thy friend? why wentest thou not with thy friend?


absalom <2SA16 -18> And Hushai said unto {Absalom}, Nay; but

whom the LORD, and this people, and all the men of Israel,

choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.


absalom <2SA16 -20> Then said {Absalom} to Ahithophel, Give

counsel among you what we shall do.


absalom <2SA16 -21> And Ahithophel said unto {Absalom}, Go in

unto thy father's concubines, which he hath left to keep the

house; and all Israel shall hear that thou art abhorred of thy

father: then shall the hands of all that [are] with thee be

strong.


absalom <2SA16 -22> So they spread {Absalom} a tent upon the top

of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father's concubines

in the sight of all Israel.


absalom <2SA16 -22> So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top

of the house; and {Absalom} went in unto his father's concubines

in the sight of all Israel.


absalom <2SA16 -23> And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he

counselled in those days, [was] as if a man had inquired at the

oracle of God: so [was] all the counsel of Ahithophel both with

David and with {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA17 -1> Moreover Ahithophel said unto {Absalom}, Let

me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I will arise and

pursue after David this night:


absalom <2SA17 -4> And the saying pleased {Absalom} well, and

all the elders of Israel.


absalom <2SA17 -5> Then said {Absalom}, Call now Hushai the

Archite also, and let us hear likewise what he saith.


absalom <2SA17 -6> And when Hushai was come to Absalom,

{Absalom} spake unto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken after

this manner: shall we do [after] his saying? if not; speak thou.


absalom <2SA17 -6> And when Hushai was come to {Absalom},

Absalom spake unto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken after

this manner: shall we do [after] his saying? if not; speak thou.


absalom <2SA17 -7> And Hushai said unto {Absalom}, The counsel

that Ahithophel hath given [is] not good at this time.


absalom <2SA17 -9> Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or in some

[other] place: and it will come to pass, when some of them be

overthrown at the first, that whosoever heareth it will say,

There is a slaughter among the people that follow {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA17 -14> And {Absalom} and all the men of Israel said,

 The counsel of Hushai the Archite [is] better than the counsel

of Ahithophel. For the LORD had appointed to defeat the good

counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring ev


il upon Absalom.


absalom <2SA17 -14> And Absalom and all the men of Israel said,

The counsel of Hushai the Archite [is] better than the counsel

of Ahithophel. For the LORD had appointed to defeat the good

counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring

evil


 upon {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA17 -15> Then said Hushai unto Zadok and to Abiathar

the priests, Thus and thus did Ahithophel counsel {Absalom} and

the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counselled.


absalom <2SA17 -18> Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told

{Absalom}: but they went both of them away quickly, and came to

a man's house in Bahurim, which had a well in his court; whither

they went down.


absalom <2SA17 -24> Then David came to Mahanaim. And {Absalom}

passed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.


absalom <2SA17 -25> And {Absalom} made Amasa captain of the host

instead of Joab: which Amasa [was] a man's son, whose name [was]

Ithra an Israelite, that went in to Abigail the daughter of

Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Joab's mother.


absalom <2SA17 -26> So Israel and {Absalom} pitched in the land

of Gilead.


absalom <2SA18 -5> And the king commanded Joab and Abishai and

Ittai, saying, [Deal] gently for my sake with the young man,

[even] with {Absalom}. And all the people heard when the king

gave all the captains charge concerning Absalom.


absalom <2SA18 -5> And the king commanded Joab and Abishai and

Ittai, saying, [Deal] gently for my sake with the young man,

[even] with Absalom. And all the people heard when the king gave

all the captains charge concerning {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA18 -9> And Absalom met the servants of David. And

{Absalom} rode upon a mule, and the mule went under the thick

boughs of a great oak, and his head caught hold of the oak, and

he was taken up between the heaven and the earth; and the mule

that


 [was] under him went away.


absalom <2SA18 -9> And {Absalom} met the servants of David. And

Absalom rode upon a mule, and the mule went under the thick

boughs of a great oak, and his head caught hold of the oak, and

he was taken up between the heaven and the earth; and the mule

that


 [was] under him went away.


absalom <2SA18 -10> And a certain man saw [it], and told Joab,

and said, Behold, I saw {Absalom} hanged in an oak.


absalom <2SA18 -12> And the man said unto Joab, Though I should

receive a thousand [shekels] of silver in mine hand, [yet] would

I not put forth mine hand against the king's son: for in our

hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Bewa


re that none [touch] the young man {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA18 -14> Then said Joab, I may not tarry thus with

thee. And he took three darts in his hand, and thrust them

through the heart of {Absalom}, while he [was] yet alive in the

midst of the oak.


absalom <2SA18 -15> And ten young men that bare Joab's armour

compassed about and smote {Absalom}, and slew him.


absalom <2SA18 -17> And they took {Absalom}, and cast him into a

great pit in the wood, and laid a very great heap of stones upon

him: and all Israel fled every one to his tent.


absalom <2SA18 -18> Now {Absalom} in his lifetime had taken and

reared up for himself a pillar, which [is] in the king's dale:

for he said, I have no son to keep my name in remembrance: and

he called the pillar after his own name: and it is called unto th


is day, Absalom's place.


absalom <2SA18 -29> And the king said, Is the young man

{Absalom} safe? And Ahimaaz answered, When Joab sent the king's

servant, and [me] thy servant, I saw a great tumult, but I knew

not what [it was].


absalom <2SA18 -32> And the king said unto Cushi, Is the young

man {Absalom} safe? And Cushi answered, The enemies of my lord

the king, and all that rise against thee to do [thee] hurt, be

as [that] young man [is].


absalom <2SA18 -33> And the king was much moved, and went up to

the chamber over the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he

said, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had

died for thee, O {Absalom}, my son, my son!


absalom <2SA18 -33> And the king was much moved, and went up to

the chamber over the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he

said, O my son {Absalom}, my son, my son Absalom! would God I

had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son!


absalom <2SA18 -33> And the king was much moved, and went up to

the chamber over the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he

said, O my son Absalom, my son, my son {Absalom}! would God I

had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son!


absalom <2SA19 -1> And it was told Joab, Behold, the king

weepeth and mourneth for {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA19 -4> But the king covered his face, and the king

cried with a loud voice, O my son {Absalom}, O Absalom, my son,

my son!


absalom <2SA19 -4> But the king covered his face, and the king

cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O {Absalom}, my son,

my son!


absalom <2SA19 -6> In that thou lovest thine enemies, and hatest

thy friends. For thou hast declared this day, that thou

regardest neither princes nor servants: for this day I perceive,

that if {Absalom} had lived, and all we had died this day, then

it ha


d pleased thee well.


absalom <2SA19 -9> And all the people were at strife throughout

all the tribes of Israel, saying, The king saved us out of the

hand of our enemies, and he delivered us out of the hand of the

Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land for {Absalom}.


absalom <2SA19 -10> And {Absalom}, whom we anointed over us, is

dead in battle. Now therefore why speak ye not a word of

bringing the king back?


absalom <2SA20 -6> And David said to Abishai, Now shall Sheba

the son of Bichri do us more harm than [did] {Absalom}: take

thou thy lord's servants, and pursue after him, lest he get him

fenced cities, and escape us.


absalom <1KI1 -6> And his father had not displeased him at any

time in saying, Why hast thou done so? and he also [was a] very

goodly [man]; and [his mother] bare him after {Absalom}.


absalom <1KI2 -7> But show kindness unto the sons of Barzillai

the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table:

for so they came to me when I fled because of {Absalom} thy

brother.


absalom <1KI2 -28> Then tidings came to Joab: for Joab had

turned after Adonijah, though he turned not after {Absalom}. And

Joab fled unto the tabernacle of the LORD, and caught hold on

the horns of the altar.


absalom <1CH3 -2> The third, {Absalom} the son of Maachah the

daughter of Talmai king of Geshur: the fourth, Adonijah the son

of Haggith:


absalom <2CH11 -20> And after her he took Maachah the daughter

of {Absalom}; which bare him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and

Shelomith.


absalom <2CH11 -21> And Rehoboam loved Maachah the daughter of

{Absalom} above all his wives and his concubines: (for he took

eighteen wives, and threescore concubines; and begat twenty and

eight sons, and threescore daughters.)


absalom <PSA3 -1> A Psalm of David, when he fled from {Absalom}

his son. LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many

[are] they that rise up against me.
