2 Samuel 15:7-10 ▼

7 After a period of four years, Absalom said to the king: “Please let me go to Hebron and fulfill a vow I made to the LORD.

8 For while living in Geshur in Aram, your servant made this vow: ‘If the LORD ever brings me back to Jerusalem, I will worship him in Hebron.’”

9 The king said to him, “Go in peace,” and he went off to Hebron.

10 Then Absalom sent agents throughout the tribes of Israel to say, “When you hear the sound of the horn, say, ‘Absalom is king in Hebron!’”
