| 1 וַיֵּ֖דַע [2] Tip'cha יוֹאָ֣ב בֶּן־צְרֻיָ֑ה [1] Etnachta עַל־אַבְשָׁלֽוֹם׃ [1] Silluq |
1 Now Joab the son of Zeruiah perceived that the king’s heart was toward Absalom. [2] |
|||
| 2 וַיִּשְׁלַ֤ח יוֹאָב֙ [3] Pashta תְּק֔וֹעָה [2] Zaqef אִשָּׁ֣ה חֲכָמָ֑ה [1] Etnachta הִֽתְאַבְּלִי־נָ֞א [4] Gershayim וְלִבְשִׁי־נָ֣א בִגְדֵי־אֵ֗בֶל [3] Revi'i שֶׁ֔מֶן [2] Zaqef זֶ֚ה [3] Yetiv יָמִ֣ים רַבִּ֔ים [2] Zaqef עַל־מֵֽת׃ [1] Silluq |
2 Joab sent to Tekoa, and brought a wise woman from there, and said to her, “Please act like a mourner, and put on mourning clothing, please, and don’t anoint yourself with oil, but be as a woman who has mourned a long time for the dead. [3] |
|||
| 3 וּבָאת֙ [3] Pashta אֶל־הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef כַּדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּ֑ה [1] Etnachta אֶת־הַדְּבָרִ֖ים [2] Tip'cha בְּפִֽיהָ׃ [1] Silluq |
3 Go in to the king, and speak like this to him.” So Joab put the words in her mouth. ¶ [3] |
|||
| 4 וַ֠תֹּ֠אמֶר [4 4] TelishaG הָאִשָּׁ֤ה הַתְּקֹעִית֙ [3] Pashta אֶל־הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef אַ֖רְצָה [2] Tip'cha וַתִּשְׁתָּ֑חוּ [1] Etnachta הוֹשִׁ֥עָה הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ [1] Silluq ס |
4 When the woman of Tekoa spoke to the king, she fell on her face to the ground, showed respect, and said, “Help, O king!” ¶ [4 4] |
|||
| 5 וַיֹּֽאמֶר־לָ֥הּ הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ [2] Tip'cha מַה־לָּ֑ךְ [1] Etnachta אֲבָ֛ל [3] Tevir אִשָּֽׁה־אַלְמָנָ֥ה אָ֖נִי [2] Tip'cha וַיָּ֥מׇת אִישִֽׁי׃ [1] Silluq |
5 The king said to her, “What ails you?” ¶She answered, “Truly I am a widow, and my husband is dead. [2] |
|||
| 6 וּלְשִׁפְחָֽתְךָ֙ [3] Pashta שְׁנֵ֣י בָנִ֔ים [2] Zaqef בַּשָּׂדֶ֔ה [2] Zaqef בֵּינֵיהֶ֑ם [1] Etnachta אֶת־הָאֶחָ֖ד [2] Tip'cha וַיָּ֥מֶת אֹתֽוֹ׃ [1] Silluq |
6 Your servant had two sons, and they both fought together in the field, and there was no one to part them, but the one struck the other, and killed him. [3] |
|||
| 7 וְהִנֵּה֩ קָ֨מָה כׇֽל־הַמִּשְׁפָּחָ֜ה [4] Geresh עַל־שִׁפְחָתֶ֗ךָ [3] Revi'i אֶת־מַכֵּ֣ה אָחִ֗יו [3] Revi'i בְּנֶ֤פֶשׁ אָחִיו֙ [3] Pashta אֲשֶׁ֣ר הָרָ֔ג [2] Zaqef גַּ֣ם אֶת־הַיּוֹרֵ֑שׁ [1] Etnachta אֶת־גַּֽחַלְתִּי֙ [3] Pashta אֲשֶׁ֣ר נִשְׁאָ֔רָה [2] Zaqef שֵׁ֥ם וּשְׁאֵרִ֖ית [2] Tip'cha עַל־פְּנֵ֥י הָאֲדָמָֽה׃ [1] Silluq פ |
7 Behold, the whole family has risen against your servant, and they say, ‘Deliver him who struck his brother, that we may kill him for the life of his brother whom he killed, and so destroy the heir also.’ Thus they would quench my coal which is left, and would leave to my husband neither name nor remainder on the surface of the earth.” ¶ [4] |
|||
| 8 וַיֹּ֧אמֶר הַמֶּ֛לֶךְ [3] Tevir אֶל־הָאִשָּׁ֖ה [2] Tip'cha לְכִ֣י לְבֵיתֵ֑ךְ [1] Etnachta אֲצַוֶּ֥ה עָלָֽיִךְ׃ [1] Silluq |
8 The king said to the woman, “Go to your house, and I will give a command concerning you.” ¶ [3] |
|||
| 9 וַתֹּ֜אמֶר [4] Geresh הָאִשָּׁ֤ה הַתְּקוֹעִית֙ [3] Pashta אֶל־הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef אֲדֹנִ֥י הַמֶּ֛לֶךְ [3] Tevir הֶעָוֺ֖ן [2] Tip'cha וְעַל־בֵּ֣ית אָבִ֑י [1] Etnachta נָקִֽי׃ [1] Silluq ס |
9 The woman of Tekoa said to the king, “My lord, O king, may the iniquity be on me, and on my father’s house; and may the king and his throne be guiltless.” ¶ [4] |
|||
| 10 וַיֹּ֖אמֶר [2] Tip'cha הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ [1] Etnachta וַהֲבֵאת֣וֹ אֵלַ֔י [2] Zaqef לָגַ֥עַת בָּֽךְ׃ [1] Silluq |
10 The king said, “Whoever says anything to you, bring him to me, and he will not bother you any more.” ¶ [2] |
|||
| 11 וַתֹּ֩אמֶר֩ יִזְכׇּר־נָ֨א הַמֶּ֜לֶךְ [4] Geresh אֶת־יְהֹוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ [3] Revi'i גֹּאֵ֤ל הַדָּם֙ [3] Pashta לְשַׁחֵ֔ת [2] Zaqef אֶת־בְּנִ֑י [1] Etnachta חַי־יְהֹוָ֔ה [2] Zaqef מִשַּׂעֲרַ֥ת בְּנֵ֖ךְ [2] Tip'cha אָֽרְצָה׃ [1] Silluq |
11 Then she said, “Please let the king remember the LORD your God, that the avenger of blood destroy not any more, lest they destroy my son.” ¶He said, “As the LORD lives, not one hair of your son shall fall to the earth.” ¶ [4] |
|||
| 12 וַתֹּ֙אמֶר֙ [3 3] Pashta הָאִשָּׁ֔ה [2] Zaqef אֶל־אֲדֹנִ֥י הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ [2] Tip'cha דָּבָ֑ר [1] Etnachta דַּבֵּֽרִי׃ [1] Silluq ס |
12 Then the woman said, “Please let your servant speak a word to my lord the king.” ¶He said, “Say on.” ¶ [3 3] |
|||
| 13 וַתֹּ֙אמֶר֙ [3 3] Pashta הָאִשָּׁ֔ה [2] Zaqef כָּזֹ֖את [2] Tip'cha עַל־עַ֣ם אֱלֹהִ֑ים [1] Etnachta הַדָּבָ֤ר הַזֶּה֙ [3] Pashta כְּאָשֵׁ֔ם [2] Zaqef הָשִׁ֥יב הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ [2] Tip'cha אֶֽת־נִדְּחֽוֹ׃ [1] Silluq |
13 The woman said, “Why then have you devised such a thing against the people of God? For in speaking this word the king is as one who is guilty, in that the king does not bring home again his banished one. [3 3] |
|||
| 14 כִּי־מ֣וֹת נָמ֔וּת [2] Zaqef הַנִּגָּרִ֣ים אַ֔רְצָה [2] Zaqef לֹ֣א יֵאָסֵ֑פוּ [1] Etnachta נֶ֔פֶשׁ [2] Zaqef מַחֲשָׁב֔וֹת [2] Zaqef יִדַּ֥ח מִמֶּ֖נּוּ [2] Tip'cha נִדָּֽח׃ [1] Silluq |
14 For we must die, and are like water spilled on the ground, which can’t be gathered up again; neither does God take away life, but devises means, that he who is banished not be an outcast from him. [2] |
|||
| 15 וְ֠עַתָּ֠ה [4 4] TelishaG אֲשֶׁר־בָּ֜אתִי [4] Geresh לְדַבֵּ֨ר אֶל־הַמֶּ֤לֶךְ אֲדֹנִי֙ [3] Pashta אֶת־הַדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּ֔ה [2] Zaqef הָעָ֑ם [1] Etnachta אֲדַבְּרָה־נָּ֣א אֶל־הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef יַעֲשֶׂ֥ה הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ [2] Tip'cha אֶת־דְּבַ֥ר אֲמָתֽוֹ׃ [1] Silluq |
15 Now therefore seeing that I have come to speak this word to my lord the king, it is because the people have made me afraid. Your servant said, ‘I will now speak to the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his servant.’ [4 4] |
|||
| 16 כִּ֚י [3] Yetiv יִשְׁמַ֣ע הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef מִכַּ֣ף הָאִ֑ישׁ [1] Etnachta יַ֔חַד [2] Zaqef אֱלֹהִֽים׃ [1] Silluq |
16 For the king will hear, to deliver his servant out of the hand of the man who would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God. [3] |
|||
| 17 וַתֹּ֙אמֶר֙ [3 3] Pashta שִׁפְחָ֣תְךָ֔ [2] Zaqef דְּבַר־אֲדֹנִ֥י הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ [2] Tip'cha לִמְנֻחָ֑ה [1] Etnachta כְּמַלְאַ֣ךְ הָאֱלֹהִ֗ים [3] Revi'i לִשְׁמֹ֙עַ֙ [3 3] Pashta הַטּ֣וֹב וְהָרָ֔ע [2] Zaqef יְהִ֥י עִמָּֽךְ׃ [1] Silluq פ |
17 Then your servant said, ‘Please let the word of my lord the king bring rest; for as an angel of God, so is my lord the king to discern good and bad. May the LORD, your God, be with you.’ ” ¶ [3 3] |
|||
| 18 וַיַּ֣עַן הַמֶּ֗לֶךְ [3] Revi'i וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ [3 3] Pashta אֶל־הָ֣אִשָּׁ֔ה [2] Zaqef דָּבָ֔ר [2] Zaqef שֹׁאֵ֣ל אֹתָ֑ךְ [1] Etnachta הָֽאִשָּׁ֔ה [2] Zaqef אֲדֹנִ֥י הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ [1] Silluq |
18 Then the king answered the woman, “Please don’t hide anything from me that I ask you.” ¶The woman said, “Let my lord the king now speak.” ¶ [3] |
|||
| 19 וַיֹּ֣אמֶר הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef אִתָּ֖ךְ [2] Tip'cha בְּכׇל־זֹ֑את [1] Etnachta חֵי־נַפְשְׁךָ֩ אֲדֹנִ֨י הַמֶּ֜לֶךְ [4] Geresh אִם־אִ֣שׁ ׀ [4] Legarmeh לְהֵמִ֣ין וּלְהַשְׂמִ֗יל [3] Revi'i אֲדֹנִ֣י הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef ה֣וּא צִוָּ֔נִי [2] Zaqef שָׂ֚ם [3] Yetiv בְּפִ֣י שִׁפְחָֽתְךָ֔ [2] Zaqef הָאֵֽלֶּה׃ [1] Silluq |
19 The king said, “Is the hand of Joab with you in all this?” ¶The woman answered, “As your soul lives, my lord the king, no one can turn to the right hand or to the left from anything that my lord the king has spoken; for your servant Joab urged me, and he put all these words in the mouth of your servant. [2] |
|||
| 20 לְבַעֲב֤וּר סַבֵּב֙ [3] Pashta אֶת־פְּנֵ֣י הַדָּבָ֔ר [2] Zaqef עַבְדְּךָ֥ יוֹאָ֖ב [2] Tip'cha אֶת־הַדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּ֑ה [1] Etnachta כְּחׇכְמַת֙ [3] Pashta מַלְאַ֣ךְ הָאֱלֹהִ֔ים [2] Zaqef אֶֽת־כׇּל־אֲשֶׁ֥ר בָּאָֽרֶץ׃ [1] Silluq ס |
20 Your servant Joab has done this thing to change the face of the matter. My lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all things that are in the earth.” ¶ [3] |
|||
| 21 וַיֹּ֤אמֶר הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ [3 3] Pashta אֶל־יוֹאָ֔ב [2] Zaqef אֶת־הַדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּ֑ה [1] Etnachta הָשֵׁ֥ב אֶת־הַנַּ֖עַר [2] Tip'cha אֶת־אַבְשָׁלֽוֹם׃ [1] Silluq |
21 The king said to Joab, “Behold now, I have done this thing. Go therefore, and bring the young man Absalom back.” ¶ [3 3] |
|||
| 22 וַיִּפֹּל֩ יוֹאָ֨ב אֶל־פָּנָ֥יו אַ֛רְצָה [3] Tevir וַיִּשְׁתַּ֖חוּ [2] Tip'cha וַיְבָ֣רֶךְ אֶת־הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ [1] Etnachta הַיּוֹם֩ יָדַ֨ע עַבְדְּךָ֜ [4] Geresh כִּֽי־מָצָ֨אתִי חֵ֤ן בְּעֵינֶ֙יךָ֙ [3 3] Pashta אֲדֹנִ֣י הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef אֶת־דְּבַ֥ר *עבדו **עַבְדֶּֽךָ׃ [1] Silluq |
22 Joab fell to the ground on his face, showed respect, and blessed the king. Joab said, “Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your sight, my lord, king, in that the king has performed the request of his servant.” ¶ [3] |
|||
| 23 וַיָּ֥קׇם יוֹאָ֖ב [2] Tip'cha וַיֵּ֣לֶךְ גְּשׁ֑וּרָה [1] Etnachta יְרֽוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃ [1] Silluq ס |
23 So Joab arose and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem. [2] |
|||
| 24 וַיֹּ֤אמֶר הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ [3 3] Pashta יִסֹּ֣ב אֶל־בֵּית֔וֹ [2] Zaqef לֹ֣א יִרְאֶ֑ה [1] Etnachta אֶל־בֵּית֔וֹ [2] Zaqef לֹ֥א רָאָֽה׃ [1] Silluq ס |
24 The king said, “Let him return to his own house, but let him not see my face.” So Absalom returned to his own house, and didn’t see the king’s face. [3 3] |
|||
| 25 וּכְאַבְשָׁל֗וֹם [3] Revi'i לֹֽא־הָיָ֧ה אִישׁ־יָפֶ֛ה [3] Tevir בְּכׇל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל [2] Tip'cha לְהַלֵּ֣ל מְאֹ֑ד [1] Etnachta וְעַ֣ד קׇדְקֳד֔וֹ [2] Zaqef מֽוּם׃ [1] Silluq |
25 Now in all Israel there was no one to be so much praised as Absalom for his beauty. From the sole of his foot even to the crown of his head there was no defect in him. [3] |
|||
| 26 וּֽבְגַלְּחוֹ֮ [3] Zarqa אֶת־רֹאשׁוֹ֒ [2] Segol מִקֵּ֨ץ יָמִ֤ים ׀ לַיָּמִים֙ [3] Pashta אֲשֶׁ֣ר יְגַלֵּ֔חַ [2] Zaqef וְגִלְּח֑וֹ [1] Etnachta אֶת־שְׂעַ֣ר רֹאשׁ֔וֹ [2] Zaqef בְּאֶ֥בֶן הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ [1] Silluq |
26 When he cut the hair of his head (now it was at every year’s end that he cut it; because it was heavy on him, therefore he cut it); he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels, after the king’s weight. [3] |
|||
| 27 וַיִּוָּלְד֤וּ לְאַבְשָׁלוֹם֙ [3] Pashta שְׁלוֹשָׁ֣ה בָנִ֔ים [2] Zaqef וּשְׁמָ֣הּ תָּמָ֑ר [1] Etnachta אִשָּׁ֖ה [2] Tip'cha יְפַ֥ת מַרְאֶֽה׃ [1] Silluq פ |
27 Three sons were born to Absalom, and one daughter, whose name was Tamar. She was a woman with a beautiful face. [3] |
|||
| 28 וַיֵּ֧שֶׁב אַבְשָׁל֛וֹם [3] Tevir בִּירוּשָׁלַ֖͏ִם [2] Tip'cha שְׁנָתַ֣יִם יָמִ֑ים [1] Etnachta לֹ֥א רָאָֽה׃ [1] Silluq |
28 Absalom lived two full years in Jerusalem, and he didn’t see the king’s face. [3] |
|||
| 29 וַיִּשְׁלַ֨ח אַבְשָׁל֜וֹם [4] Geresh אֶל־יוֹאָ֗ב [3] Revi'i אֶל־הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef לָב֣וֹא אֵלָ֑יו [1] Etnachta שֵׁנִ֔ית [2] Zaqef לָבֽוֹא׃ [1] Silluq |
29 Then Absalom sent for Joab, to send him to the king, but he would not come to him. Then he sent again a second time, but he would not come. [4] |
|||
| 30 וַיֹּ֨אמֶר אֶל־עֲבָדָ֜יו [4] Geresh רְאוּ֩ חֶלְקַ֨ת יוֹאָ֤ב אֶל־יָדִי֙ [3] Pashta וְלוֹ־שָׁ֣ם שְׂעֹרִ֔ים [2] Zaqef *והוצתיה **וְהַצִּית֣וּהָ בָאֵ֑שׁ [1] Etnachta עַבְדֵ֧י אַבְשָׁל֛וֹם [3] Tevir אֶת־הַחֶלְקָ֖ה [2] Tip'cha בָּאֵֽשׁ׃ [1] Silluq פ |
30 Therefore he said to his servants, “Behold, Joab’s field is near mine, and he has barley there. Go and set it on fire.” So Absalom’s servants set the field on fire. ¶ [4] |
|||
| 31 וַיָּ֣קׇם יוֹאָ֔ב [2] Zaqef וַיָּבֹ֥א אֶל־אַבְשָׁל֖וֹם [2] Tip'cha הַבָּ֑יְתָה [1] Etnachta אֶת־הַחֶלְקָ֥ה אֲשֶׁר־לִ֖י [2] Tip'cha בָּאֵֽשׁ׃ [1] Silluq |
31 Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom to his house, and said to him, “Why have your servants set my field on fire?” ¶ [2] |
|||
| 32 וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אַבְשָׁל֣וֹם אֶל־יוֹאָ֡ב [4] Pazer הִנֵּ֣ה שָׁלַ֣חְתִּי אֵלֶ֣יךָ ׀ לֵאמֹ֡ר [4] Pazer בֹּ֣א הֵ֠נָּה [4] TelishaG וְאֶשְׁלְחָה֩ אֹתְךָ֨ אֶל־הַמֶּ֜לֶךְ [4] Geresh לֵאמֹ֗ר [3] Revi'i מִגְּשׁ֔וּר [2] Zaqef עֹ֣ד אֲנִי־שָׁ֑ם [1] Etnachta אֶרְאֶה֙ [3] Pashta פְּנֵ֣י הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef וֶהֱמִתָֽנִי׃ [1] Silluq |
32 Absalom answered Joab, “Behold, I sent to you, saying, ‘Come here, that I may send you to the king, to say, “Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me to be there still. Now therefore let me see the king’s face, and if there is iniquity in me, let him kill me.” ’ ” ¶ [4] |
|||
| 33 וַיָּבֹ֨א יוֹאָ֣ב אֶל־הַמֶּ֘לֶךְ֮ [3 3] Zarqa וַיַּגֶּד־לוֹ֒ [2] Segol וַיָּבֹ֣א אֶל־הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ [2] Zaqef אַ֖רְצָה [2] Tip'cha לִפְנֵ֣י הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ [1] Etnachta לְאַבְשָׁלֽוֹם׃ [1] Silluq ס |
33 So Joab came to the king, and told him; and when he had called for Absalom, he came to the king, and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king; and the king kissed Absalom. ¶ [3 3] |
