H0853–אֵת–et

It happened, while they were in the way, that the news came to David, saying, Absalom has slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then the king arose, and tore his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes torn.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother, answered, Don't let my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men the king's sons; for Amnon only is dead; for by the appointment of Absalom this has been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.

אֵ֣ת 'et “<obj.>”אֵ֖ת 'et “<obj.>”

But Absalom fled. The young man who kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came much people by the way of the hill-side behind him.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

and go in to the king, and speak on this manner to him. So Joab put the words in her mouth.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Your handmaid had two sons, and they two strove together in the field, and there was none to part them, but the one struck the other, and killed him.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֹתֽוֹ׃ (אֹתֽ) 'o.T “<obj.>”

Behold, the whole family is risen against your handmaid, and they say, Deliver him who struck his brother, that we may kill him for the life of his brother whom he killed, and so destroy the heir also. Thus will they quench my coal which is left, and will leave to my husband neither name nor remainder on the surface of the earth.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then said she, Please let the king remember Yahweh your God, that the avenger of blood destroy not any more, lest they destroy my son. He said, As Yahweh lives, there shall not one hair of your son fall to the earth.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

The woman said, Why then have you devised such a thing against the people of God? for in speaking this word the king is as one who is guilty, in that the king does not bring home again his banished one.

אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Now therefore seeing that I have come to speak this word to my lord the king, it is because the people have made me afraid: and your handmaid said, I will now speak to the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his servant.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

For the king will hear, to deliver his servant out of the hand of the man who would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֹתִ֤י (אֹתִ֤) 'o.T “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Then the king answered the woman, Please don't hide anything from me that I shall ask you. The woman said, Let my lord the king now speak.

אֹתָ֑ךְ (אֹתָ֑) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

The king said, Is the hand of Joab with you in all this? The woman answered, As your soul lives, my lord the king, none can turn to the right hand or to the left from anything that my lord the king has spoken; for your servant Joab, he bade me, and he put all these words in the mouth of your handmaid;

אֵ֥ת 'et “<obj.>”

to change the face of the matter has your servant Joab done this thing: and my lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all things that are in the earth.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

The king said to Joab, Behold now, I have done this thing: go therefore, bring the young man Absalom back.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Joab fell to the ground on his face, and did obeisance, and blessed the king: and Joab said, Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your sight, my lord, king, in that the king has performed the request of his servant.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

So Joab arose and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

When he cut the hair of his head (now it was at every year's end that he cut it; because it was heavy on him, therefore he cut it); he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels, after the king's weight.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then Absalom sent for Joab, to send him to the king; but he would not come to him: and he sent again a second time, but he would not come.

אֹתוֹ֙ (אֹת) 'o.T “<obj.>”

Therefore he said to his servants, Behold, Joab's field is near mine, and he has barley there; go and set it on fire. Absalom's servants set the field on fire.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom to his house, and said to him, Why have your servants set my field on fire?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Absalom answered Joab, Behold, I sent to you, saying, Come here, that I may send you to the king, to say, Why am I come from Geshur? it were better for me to be there still. Now therefore let me see the king's face; and if there be iniquity in me, let him kill me.

אֹתְךָ֨ (אֹתְ) 'o.te. “<obj.>”

It was so, that when any man came near to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took hold of him, and kissed him.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

In this manner Absalom did to all Israel who came to the king for judgment: so Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

It happened at the end of forty years, that Absalom said to the king, please let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to Yahweh, in Hebron.
