1 And it was tolde Ioab, Behold, the King weepeth and mourneth for Absalom.

2 Therefore the victorie of that day was turned into mourning to all the people: for the people heard say that day, The King soroweth for his sonne.

3 And the people went that day into the citie secretly, as people confounded hide them selues when they flee in battell.

4 So the King hid his face, and the King cryed with a loude voyce, My sonne Absalom, Absalom my sonne, my sonne.
