2 Samuel 15:7-10 ▼

7 When four years had passed, Absalom said to the king, “Please let me go to Hebron to fulfill a vow I made to the LORD.

8 For your servant made a vow when I lived in Geshur of Aram, saying, ‘If the LORD really brings me back to Jerusalem, I will worship the LORD in Hebron.’ ”

9 “Go in peace,” the king said to him. So he went to Hebron.

10 Then Absalom sent agents throughout the tribes of Israel with this message: “When you hear the sound of the ram’s horn, you are to say, ‘Absalom has become king in Hebron! ’ ”
