Absalom Flees to Geshur

Absalom Flees to Geshur


34Meanwhile, Absalom had fled. When the young man standing watch looked up, he saw many people coming down the road west of him,[fn] along the side of the hill. And the watchman went and reported to the king, “I see men coming from the direction of Horonaim, along the side of the hill.”[fn]


35So Jonadab said to the king, “Look, the sons of the king have arrived! It is just as your servant said.”


36And as he finished speaking, the sons of the king came in, wailing loudly. Then the king and all his servants also wept very bitterly.


37Now Absalom fled and went to Talmai son of Ammihud, the king of Geshur. But David mourned for his son every day.


38After Absalom had fled and gone to Geshur, he stayed there three years. 39And King David [fn] longed to go to Absalom,[fn] for he had been consoled over Amnon’s death.
