18 And_ Dāvid _he _mustered DOM the_people which with_him/it and_he/it _assigned over_them commanders _of thousands and_commanders _of hundreds.

2 And_ Dāvid _he _sent _out DOM the_people the_third was_in_the _hand _of Yōʼāⱱ and_the_third was_in_the _hand _of ʼAⱱīshay the _son _of Tsərū^yāh the _brother _of Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) and_the_third was_in_the _hand _of ʼIttay the_Gittiy and_he/it _said the_king to the_people certainly _(go _out) I _will _go _out also I with_you(pl).

3 And_he/it _said the_people not you _must _go _out if/because if actually _(flee) we _will _flee not they _will _set to_us heart and_if they _will _die of _us _of_half not they _will _set to_us heart if/because now like_us ten thousand(s) and_now is_good (cmp) you _will _be to/for_ourselves from_the_city to_help[fn].

4 and_he/it _said to_them the_king that_which it _will _be _good in_eyes _of_your(pl) I _will _do and_he _stood the_king to the _side _of the _gate and_all the_people they _went _out to_hundreds and_to_thousands.

5 And_he/it _commanded the_king DOM Yōʼāⱱ and_DOM ʼAⱱīshay and_DOM ʼIttay to_say to_gentleness to_me to_man to_ʼAⱱīshālōm and_all the_people they _heard when_commanded the_king DOM all _of the_commanders on the _matter _of ʼAⱱīshālōm.

6 And_he/it _went _out the_people the_field to_ Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) _meet and_it _became the_battle in_the _forest _of ʼEfrayim.

7 And_they _were _defeated there the _people _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) to_(the)_face _of/in _front _of/before the _servants _of Dāvid and_it _became there the_slaughter great in _the_day (the)_that twenty thousand.

8 And_it _became there the_battle scattered[fn][fn] over the _surface _of all _of the_earth/land and_it _increased the_forest to_consume among_people more_than_those_whom it _consumed the_drought//sword/knife in _the_day (the)_that.

9 And_ ʼAⱱīshālōm _he _was _met to_(the)_face _of/in _front _of/before the _servants _of Dāvid and_ʼAⱱīshālōm was_riding on the_mule and_it _went the_mule under the _branche[s]_of the _terebinth (the)_great his/its_head and_it _was _firm in_terebinth and_he _was _put between the_heavens and_between the_earth/land and_the_mule which was_under_him it _passed _on.

10 And_ a _man _he/it _saw one and_he _told to_Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) and_he/it _said THERE I _saw DOM ʼAⱱīshālōm hung _up in_terebinth.

11 And_ Yōʼāⱱ _he/it _said to_man who_had_told to_him/it and_BEHOLD/LO/SEE you _saw and_why not did_you _strike _him _down there ground_to_the and_on_me to_give to/for_yourself(m) ten silver and_a _belt one.

12 And_he/it _said the_man to Yōʼāⱱ and_if[fn][fn] I was_weighing on palms _of_my a _thousand silver not I _will _stretch _out hand _of_my against the _son _of the_king if/because in_ears _of_our he _commanded the_king you and_DOM ʼAⱱīshay and_DOM ʼIttay to_say protect whoever (in)_the_man (in)_ʼAⱱīshālōm.

13 Or I _had _done on_life _of_my[fn] falsehood and_all thing not it _is _hidden from the_king and_you(ms) you _will _stand from_in _front.

14 And_ Yōʼāⱱ _he/it _said not thus I _will _wait to_your_face and_he/it _took three spears in_palm _of_his and_he_thrust _them in_the _heart _of ʼAⱱīshālōm still_he was_alive in_the _heart _of the _terebinth.

15 And_they _surrounded_him ten young _men of _the _armour(s)_of the _bearers _of Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) and_they _struck DOM ʼAⱱīshālōm and_they_killed _him.

16 And_ Yōʼāⱱ _he _gave _a _blast on_trumpet and_it _turned _back the_people from_pursuing after Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) if/because Yōʼāⱱ he _restrained DOM the_people.

17 And_they _took DOM ʼAⱱīshālōm and_they _threw DOM_him/it in_forest into the_pit (the)_great and_they _set _up on/upon/above_him/it a _heap _of stones great very and_all Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) they _fled each to_tents _of_his[fn].

18 and_ʼAⱱīshālōm he _had _taken and_he _had _set _up to_him/it in_life _of_his[fn] DOM a _pillar which is_in_the _valley _of the_king if/because he _said there_belongs_not to_me a _son in_account _of to _cause _to _be _remembered name _of_my and_he/it _called (to)_pillar on his/its_name and_it _has _been _called to/for_her/it the _monument _of ʼAⱱīshālōm until the_day (the)_this.

19 and_ʼAḩīmaˊaʦ the _son _of Tsādōq/(Zadok) he _said let _me _run please and_let _me _bear _the _news DOM the_king if/because _that he_has _vindicated _him YHWH from_the _hand _of his _enemies _of_his.

20 And_he/it _said to_him/it Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) not are_a _man _of news you the_day the_this and_you _will _bear _news in/on_day another and_the_day the_this not you _will _bear _the _news if/because therefore[fn][fn] the _son _of the_king he _has _died.

21 And_ Yōʼāⱱ _he/it _said to_Kūshiy/(Cushite) go tell to/for_the _king that_which you _have _seen and_ the_Kūshiy _he _bowed _down to_Yōʼāⱱ and_he _ran.

22 And_he _repeated again ʼAḩīmaˊaʦ the _son _of Tsādōq and_he/it _said to Yōʼāⱱ and_let _it _be whatever let _me _run please also I after the_Kūshiy and_ Yōʼāⱱ _he/it _said to/for_what this are_you running my _son _of_my and_for_you there_will_not_be news which _will_find.

23 And_let _it _be whatever I _will _run and_he/it _said to_him/it run and_ ʼAḩīmaˊaʦ _he _ran the _way _of the _plain and_he _passed _by DOM the_Kūshiy.

24 And_Dāvid was_sitting between the _two _of the_gates and_he/it _went the_watchman to the _roof of_the _gate to the_wall and_he _lifted _up DOM eyes _of_his and_he/it _saw and_BEHOLD/LO/SEE a _man was_running for_him/it_being _alone.

25 And_he/it _called the_watchman and_he _told to/for_the _king and_he/it _said the_king if for_him/it_being _alone news is_in_mouth _of_his and_he/it _went coming and_approaching.

26 And_he/it _saw the_ a _man _watchman another running and_he/it _called the_watchman to the_gatekeeper and_he/it _said THERE a _man is_running for_him/it_being _alone and_he/it _said the_king also this _one is_bearing _news.

27 And_he/it _said the_watchman I am_seeing DOM the _running _of the _first_one like_the _running _of ʼAḩīmaˊaʦ the _son _of Tsādōq/(Zadok) and_he/it _said the_king is_a _man good this and_near/to news good he _is _coming.

28 And_ ʼAḩīmaˊaʦ _he/it _called and_he/it _said to the_king peace and_he _bowed _down to/for_the _king to_face _of_his ground_to_the and_he/it _said YHWH be_blessed god _of_your who he _has _delivered _up DOM the_men who they _lifted _up DOM hand _of_their against_master _of_my the_king.

29 And_he/it _said the_king does_peace belong_to_man to_ʼAⱱīshālōm and_ ʼAḩīmaˊaʦ _he/it _said I _saw the_multitude (the)_great to_send DOM the _servant _of the_king Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) and_DOM servant _of_your and_not I _know whatever.

30 And_he/it _said the_king go _around stand thus and_he _went _around and_he _stood.

31 And_BEHOLD/LO/SEE the_Kūshiy/(Cushite) was_coming and_he/it _said the_Kūshiy my_master let _him _receive _the _news the_king if/because he_has _vindicated _you YHWH the_day from_the _hand _of all _of those_who_rose _up on_you.

32 and_he/it _said the_king to the_Kūshiy does_peace belong_to_man to_ʼAⱱīshālōm and_he/it _said the_Kūshiy let _them _be like_man the _enemies _of my_master the_king and_all/each/any/every those_who they _have _risen _up on_you for_harm.
