2 Samuel 15:7-10 ▼

7 After four years Absalom said to the king, |Let me go and repay my vow that I made to the LORD while I was in Hebron.

8 For I made this vow when I was living in Geshur in Aram: 'If the LORD really does allow me to return to Jerusalem, I will serve the LORD.'|

9 The king replied to him, |Go in peace.| So Absalom got up and went to Hebron.

10 Then Absalom sent spies through all the tribes of Israel who said, |When you hear the sound of the horn, you may assume that Absalom rules in Hebron.|
