And Absalom put Amasa at the head of the army in place of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man named Ithra the Ishmaelite, who had been the lover of Abigail, the daughter of Jesse, sister of Zeruiah, Joab's mother.

And David sent the people out, a third of them under the orders of Joab, and a third under the orders of Abishai, son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third under Ittai the Gittite. And the king said to the people, And I myself will certainly go out wit

But the people said, It is better for you not to go out: for if we are put to flight, they will not give a thought to us, and if death overtakes half of us, it will be nothing to them: but you are of more value than ten thousand of us: so it is better fo

הָעָ֜ם (הָ) ha. “the”

And the king said to them, I will do whatever seems best to you. So the king took his place by the door of the town, and all the people went out by hundreds and by thousands.

And the people of Israel were overcome there by the servants of David, and there was a great destruction that day, and twenty thousand men were put to the sword.

הַמַּגֵּפָ֧ה (הַ) ha. “the”הַה֖וּא (הַ) ha. “<the>”

And the fighting went on over all the face of the country: and the woods were responsible for more deaths than the sword.

And Absalom came across some of David's men. And Absalom was seated on his mule, and the mule went under the thick branches of a great tree, and his head became fixed in the tree and he was lifted up between earth and heaven, and the beast under him went

And Joab said to the man who had given him the news, If you saw this, why did you not put your sword through him, and I would have given you ten bits of silver and a band for your robe?

הַמַּגִּ֣יד (הַ) ha. “who”

And the man said to Joab, Even if you gave me a thousand bits of silver, I would not put out my hand against the king's son: for in our hearing the king gave orders to you and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Take care that the young man Absalom is not touched

הָאִישׁ֙ (הָ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֗לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

And if I had falsely put him to death (and nothing may be kept secret from the king), you would have had nothing to do with me.

הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

Then Joab said, I would have made it safe for you. And he took three spears in his hand, and put them through Absalom's heart, while he was still living, in the branches of the tree.

הָאֵלָֽה׃ (הָ) ha. “the”

And Joab had the horn sounded, and the people came back from going after Israel, for Joab kept them back.

Now Absalom, before his death, had put up for himself a pillar in the king's valley, naming it after himself; for he said, I have no son to keep my name in memory: and to this day it is named Absalom's pillar.

Then Ahimaaz, the son of Zadok, said, Let me go and give the king news of how the Lord has done right in his cause against those who took up arms against him.

הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

And Joab said, You will take no news today; another day you may give him the news, but you will take no news today, because the king's son is dead.

הַיּ֣וֹם (הַ) hai. “<the>”הַזֶּ֔ה (הַ) ha. “<the>”וְהַיּ֤וֹם (הַ) hai. “<the>”הַזֶּה֙ (הַ) ha. “<the>”הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

Then Ahimaaz, the son of Zadok, said to Joab again, Whatever may come of it, let me go after the Cushite. And Joab said, Why have you a desire to go, my son, seeing that you will get no reward for your news?

הַכּוּשִׁ֑י (הַ) ha. “the”

Whatever may come of it, he said, I will go. Then he said to him, Go. So Ahimaaz went running by the lowland road and overtook the Cushite.
