H9009–/ה–ha

Now David was seated between the two town doors; and the watchman went up to the roof of the doorways, on the wall, and, lifting up his eyes, saw a man running by himself.

הַשְּׁעָרִ֑ים (הַ) ha. “the”הַצֹּפֶ֜ה (הַ) ha. “the”הַשַּׁ֙עַר֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הַ֣חוֹמָ֔ה (הַ֣) ha. “the”

And the watchman gave news of it to the king. And the king said, If he is coming by himself, then he has news. And the man was travelling quickly, and came near.

הַצֹּפֶה֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

Then the watchman saw another man running: and crying out in the direction of the door he said, Here is another man running by himself. And the king said, He, like the other, comes with news.

הַצֹּפֶה֮ (הַ) ha. “the”הַצֹּפֶה֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הַשֹּׁעֵ֔ר (הַ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

And the watchman said, It seems to me that the running of the first is like the running of Ahimaaz, the son of Zadok. And the king said, He is a good man, and his news will be good.

הַצֹּפֶ֔ה (הַ) ha. “the”הָרִאשׁ֔וֹן (הָ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ (הַ) ha. “the”

And Ahimaaz, crying out to the king, said, It is well. And falling down before the king, with his face to the earth, he said, May the Lord your God be praised, who has given up the men who took up arms against my lord the king!

הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הָ֣אֲנָשִׁ֔ים (הָ֣) ha. “the”הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ (הַ) ha. “the”

And the king said, Is it well with the young man Absalom? And Ahimaaz said in answer, When Joab sent me, your servant, I saw a great outcry going on, but I had no knowledge of what it was.

הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הֶהָמ֨וֹן (הֶ) he. “the”הַגָּד֜וֹל (הַ) ha. “<the>”הַמֶּ֤לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

And the king said, Get back and take your place here. So turning to one side, he took his place there.

הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

And then the Cushite came and said, I have news for my lord the king: today the Lord has done right in your cause against all those who took up arms against you.

הַכּוּשִׁ֖י (הַ) ha. “the”הַכּוּשִׁ֗י (הַ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הַיּ֔וֹם (הַ) hai. “this”הַקָּמִ֥ים (הַ) ha. “those”

And the king said to the Cushite, Is the young man Absalom safe? And the Cushite said in answer, May all the king's haters and those who do evil against the king, be as that young man is!

הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הַכּוּשִׁ֔י (הַ) ha. “the”הַכּוּשִׁ֗י (הַ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

Then the king was much moved, and went up into the room over the door, weeping, and saying, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! if only my life might have been given for yours, O Absalom, my son, my son!

הַמֶּ֗לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הַשַּׁ֖עַר (הַ) ha. “the”

And word was given to Joab that the king was weeping and sorrowing for Absalom.

הַמֶּ֧לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

And the salvation of that day was changed to sorrow for all the people: for it was said to the people, The king is in bitter grief for his son.

הַתְּשֻׁעָ֜ה (הַ) ha. “the”הַה֛וּא (הַ) ha. “<the>”הָעָ֑ם (הָ) ha. “the”הָעָ֗ם (הָ) ha. “the”הַהוּא֙ (הַ) ha. “<the>”הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

And the people made their way back to the town quietly and secretly, as those who are shamed go secretly when they go in flight from the war.

הָעָ֛ם (הָ) ha. “the”הַה֖וּא (הַ) ha. “<the>”הָעִ֑יר (הָ) ha. “the”הָעָם֙ (הָ) ha. “<the>”הַנִּכְלָמִ֔ים (הַ) ha. “who”

But the king, covering his face, gave a great cry, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!

וְהַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

And Joab came into the house to the king and said, Today you have put to shame the faces of all your servants who even now have kept you and your sons and your daughters and your wives and all your women safe from death;

הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הַבָּ֑יִת (הַ) ha. “the”הַיּ֜וֹם (הַ) hai. “this”הַֽמְמַלְּטִ֤ים (הַֽ) ha. “who”הַיּ֔וֹם (הַ) hai. “this”

For your haters, it seems, are dear to you, and your friends are hated. For you have made it clear that captains and servants are nothing to you: and now I see that if Absalom was living and we had all been dead today, it would have been right in your ey

הַיּ֗וֹם (הַ) hai. “this”הַיּ֗וֹם (הַ) hai. “this”הַיּוֹם֙ (הַ) hai. “this”

So get up now, and go out and say some kind words to your servants; for, by the Lord, I give you my oath, that if you do not go out, not one of them will keep with you tonight; and that will be worse for you than all the evil which has overtaken you from

הַלַּ֔יְלָה (הַ) ha. “this”הָרָעָה֙ (הָ) ha. “the”

Then the king got up and took his seat near the town-door. And word was given to all the people that the king was in the public place: and all the people came before the king. Now all the men of Israel had gone back in flight to their tents.

הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הָעָ֞ם (הָ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ (הַ) ha. “the”הָעָם֙ (הָ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

And through all the tribes of Israel the people were having arguments, saying, The king made us safe from the hands of those who were against us and made us free from the hands of the Philistines; and now he has gone in flight from the land, because of A

הָעָם֙ (הָ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֜לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הָאָ֖רֶץ (הָ) ha. “the”

And Absalom, whom we made a ruler over us, is dead in the fight. So now why do you say nothing about getting the king back? And word of what all Israel was saying came to the king.

הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ (הַ) ha. “the”

And King David sent word to Zadok and Abiathar, the priests, Say to the responsible men of Judah, Why are you the last to take steps to get the king back to his house?

וְהַמֶּ֣לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הַכֹּהֲנִים֮ (הַ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

You are my brothers, my bone and my flesh; why are you the last to get the king back again?

הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ (הַ) ha. “the”

And say to Amasa, Are you not my bone and my flesh? May God's punishment be on me, if I do not make you chief of the army before me at all times in place of Joab!

הַיָּמִ֖ים (הַ) hai. “the”

And the hearts of the men of Judah were moved like one man; so that they sent to the king, saying, Come back, with all your servants.

הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”

So the king came back, and came as far as Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, meeting the king there, to take him back with them over Jordan.

הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הַיַּרְדֵּ֑ן (הַ) hai. “the”הַגִּלְגָּ֗לָה (הַ) ha. “<the>”הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ (הַ) ha. “the”הַיַּרְדֵּֽן׃ (הַ) hai. “the”
