2 Samuel 19:1-4 ▼

1 Joab was told, “The king is weeping and mourning for Absalom.”

2 And for the whole army the victory that day was turned into mourning, because on that day the troops heard it said, “The king is grieving for his son.”

3 The men stole into the city that day as men steal in who are ashamed when they flee from battle.

4 The king covered his face and cried aloud, “O my son Absalom! O Absalom, my son, my son!”
