1 Samuel 30

וַיָּבֹא דָוִד אֶל-מָאתַיִם הָֽאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶֽׁר-פִּגְּרוּ׀ מִלֶּכֶת׀ אַֽחֲרֵי דָוִד וַיֹּֽשִׁיבֻם בְּנַחַל הַבְּשׂוֹר וַיֵּֽצְאוּ לִקְרַאת דָּוִד וְלִקְרַאת הָעָם אֲשֶׁר-אִתּוֹ וַיִּגַּשׁ דָּוִד אֶת-הָעָם וַיִּשְׁאַל לָהֶם לְשָׁלֽוֹם׃
21
And David came to the two hundred men, which were so faint that they could not follow David, whom they had made also to abide at the brook Besor: and they went forth to meet David, and to meet the people that were with him: and when David came near to the people, he saluted them.
וַיַּעַן כָּל-אִֽישׁ-רָע וּבְלִיַּעַל מֵהָֽאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר הָֽלְכוּ עִם-דָּוִד וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ יַעַן אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-הָלְכוּ עִמִּי לֹֽא-נִתֵּן לָהֶם מֵֽהַשָּׁלָל אֲשֶׁר הִצַּלְנוּ כִּֽי-אִם-אִישׁ אֶת-אִשְׁתּוֹ וְאֶת-בָּנָיו וְיִנְהֲגוּ וְיֵלֵֽכוּ׃
22
Then answered all the wicked men and men of Belial, of those that went with David, and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them ought of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, that they may lead them away, and depart.
וְלַֽאֲשֶׁר בְּחֶבְרוֹן וּֽלְכָל-הַמְּקֹמוֹת אֲשֶֽׁר-הִתְהַלֶּךְ-שָׁם דָּוִד הוּא וַֽאֲנָשָֽׁיו׃
31
And to them which were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men were wont to haunt.

1 Samuel 31

וּפְלִשְׁתִּים נִלְחָמִים בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל וַיָּנֻסוּ אַנְשֵׁי יִשְׂרָאֵל מִפְּנֵי פְלִשְׁתִּים וַיִּפְּלוּ חֲלָלִים בְּהַר הַגִּלְבֹּֽעַ׃
1
Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
וַתִּכְבַּד הַמִּלְחָמָה אֶל-שָׁאוּל וַיִּמְצָאֻהוּ הַמּוֹרִים אֲנָשִׁים בַּקָּשֶׁת וַיָּחֶל מְאֹד מֵֽהַמּוֹרִֽים׃
3
And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him; and he was sore wounded of the archers.
וַיָּמָת שָׁאוּל וּשְׁלֹשֶׁת בָּנָיו וְנֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו גַּם כָּל-אֲנָשָׁיו בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא יַחְדָּֽו׃
6
So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armourbearer, and all his men, that same day together.
וַיִּרְאוּ אַנְשֵֽׁי-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר-בְּעֵבֶר הָעֵמֶק וַֽאֲשֶׁר׀ בְּעֵבֶר הַיַּרְדֵּן כִּֽי-נָסוּ אַנְשֵׁי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְכִי-מֵתוּ שָׁאוּל וּבָנָיו וַיַּֽעַזְבוּ אֶת-הֶֽעָרִים וַיָּנֻסוּ וַיָּבֹאוּ פְלִשְׁתִּים וַיֵּֽשְׁבוּ בָּהֶֽן׃
7
And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the valley, and they that were on the other side Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
וַיָּקוּמוּ כָּל-אִישׁ חַיִל וַיֵּֽלְכוּ כָל-הַלַּיְלָה וַיִּקְחוּ אֶת-גְּוִיַּת שָׁאוּל וְאֵת גְּוִיֹּת בָּנָיו מֵֽחוֹמַת בֵּית שָׁן וַיָּבֹאוּ יָבֵשָׁה וַיִּשְׂרְפוּ אֹתָם שָֽׁם׃
12
All the valiant men arose, and went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth-shan, and came to Jabesh, and burnt them there.

2 Samuel 1

וַיְהִי׀ בַּיּוֹם הַשְּׁלִישִׁי וְהִנֵּה אִישׁ בָּא מִן-הַֽמַּחֲנֶה מֵעִם שָׁאוּל וּבְגָדָיו קְרֻעִים וַֽאֲדָמָה עַל-רֹאשׁוֹ וַֽיְהִי בְּבֹאוֹ אֶל-דָּוִד וַיִּפֹּל אַרְצָה וַיִּשְׁתָּֽחוּ׃
2
It came even to pass on the third day, that, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his clothes rent, and earth upon his head: and so it was, when he came to David, that he fell to the earth, and did obeisance.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַנַּעַר׀ הַמַּגִּיד לוֹ נִקְרֹא נִקְרֵיתִי בְּהַר הַגִּלְבֹּעַ וְהִנֵּה שָׁאוּל נִשְׁעָן עַל-חֲנִיתוֹ וְהִנֵּה הָרֶכֶב וּבַֽעֲלֵי הַפָּֽרָשִׁים הִדְבִּקֻֽהוּ׃
6
And the young man that told him said, As I happened by chance upon mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned upon his spear; and, lo, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.
וַיַּֽחֲזֵק דָּוִד ‫(בבגדו)‬ בִּבְגָדָיו וַיִּקְרָעֵם וְגַם כָּל-הָֽאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר אִתּֽוֹ׃
11
Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him:
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד אֶל-הַנַּעַר הַמַּגִּיד לוֹ אֵי מִזֶּה אָתָּה וַיֹּאמֶר בֶּן-אִישׁ גֵּר עֲמָֽלֵקִי אָנֹֽכִי׃
13
And David said unto the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he answered, I am the son of a stranger, an Amalekite.

2 Samuel 2

3
And his men that were with him did David bring up, every man with his household: and they dwelt in the cities of Hebron.
וַיָּבֹאוּ אַנְשֵׁי יְהוּדָה וַיִּמְשְׁחוּ-שָׁם אֶת-דָּוִד לְמֶלֶךְ עַל-בֵּית יְהוּדָה וַיַּגִּדוּ לְדָוִד לֵאמֹר אַנְשֵׁי יָבֵישׁ גִּלְעָד אֲשֶׁר קָֽבְרוּ אֶת-שָׁאֽוּל׃
4
And the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, That the men of Jabesh-gilead were they that buried Saul.
וַיִּשְׁלַח דָּוִד מַלְאָכִים אֶל-אַנְשֵׁי יָבֵישׁ גִּלְעָד וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם בְּרֻכִים אַתֶּם לַֽיהוָה אֲשֶׁר עֲשִׂיתֶם הַחֶסֶד הַזֶּה עִם-אֲדֹֽנֵיכֶם עִם-שָׁאוּל וַֽתִּקְבְּרוּ אֹתֽוֹ׃
5
And David sent messengers unto the men of Jabesh-gilead, and said unto them, Blessed be ye of the LORD, that ye have shewed this kindness unto your lord, even unto Saul, and have buried him.
וַֽיַּחֲזִקוּ אִישׁ׀ בְּרֹאשׁ רֵעֵהוּ וְחַרְבּוֹ בְּצַד רֵעֵהוּ וַֽיִּפְּלוּ יַחְדָּו וַיִּקְרָא לַמָּקוֹם הַהוּא חֶלְקַת הַצֻּרִים אֲשֶׁר בְּגִבְעֽוֹן׃
16
And they caught every one his fellow by the head, and thrust his sword in his fellow's side; so they fell down together: wherefore that place was called Helkath-hazzurim, which is in Gibeon.
וַתְּהִי הַמִּלְחָמָה קָשָׁה עַד-מְאֹד בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא וַיִּנָּגֶף אַבְנֵר וְאַנְשֵׁי יִשְׂרָאֵל לִפְנֵי עַבְדֵי דָוִֽד׃
17
And there was a very sore battle that day; and Abner was beaten, and the men of Israel, before the servants of David.
וַיֹּאמֶר יוֹאָב חַי הָֽאֱלֹהִים כִּי לוּלֵא דִּבַּרְתָּ כִּי אָז מֵֽהַבֹּקֶר נַֽעֲלָה הָעָם אִישׁ מֵאַֽחֲרֵי אָחִֽיו׃
27
And Joab said, As God liveth, unless thou hadst spoken, surely then in the morning the people had gone up every one from following his brother.
וְאַבְנֵר וַֽאֲנָשָׁיו הָֽלְכוּ בָּֽעֲרָבָה כֹּל הַלַּיְלָה הַהוּא וַיַּֽעַבְרוּ אֶת-הַיַּרְדֵּן וַיֵּֽלְכוּ כָּל-הַבִּתְרוֹן וַיָּבֹאוּ מַֽחֲנָֽיִם׃
29
And Abner and his men walked all that night through the plain, and passed over Jordan, and went through all Bithron, and they came to Mahanaim.
וְיוֹאָב שָׁב מֵאַֽחֲרֵי אַבְנֵר וַיִּקְבֹּץ אֶת-כָּל-הָעָם וַיִּפָּקְדוּ מֵֽעַבְדֵי דָוִד תִּשְׁעָֽה-עָשָׂר אִישׁ וַעֲשָׂה-אֵֽל׃
30
And Joab returned from following Abner: and when he had gathered together, all the people there lacked of David's servants nineteen men and Asahel.
וְעַבְדֵי דָוִד הִכּוּ מִבִּנְיָמִן וּבְאַנְשֵׁי אַבְנֵר שְׁלֹשׁ-מֵאוֹת וְשִׁשִּׁים אִישׁ מֵֽתוּ׃
31
But the servants of David had smitten of Benjamin, and of Abner's men, so that three hundred and threescore men died.
וַיִּשְׂאוּ אֶת-עֲשָׂהאֵל וַֽיִּקְבְּרֻהוּ בְּקֶבֶר אָבִיו אֲשֶׁר בֵּית לָחֶם וַיֵּֽלְכוּ כָל-הַלַּיְלָה יוֹאָב וַֽאֲנָשָׁיו וַיֵּאֹר לָהֶם בְּחֶבְרֽוֹן׃
32
And they took up Asahel, and buried him in the sepulchre of his father, which was in Bethlehem. And Joab and his men went all night, and they came to Hebron at break of day.

2 Samuel 3

15
And Ish-bosheth sent, and took her from her husband, even from Phaltiel the son of Laish.

16
And her husband went with her along weeping behind her to Bahurim. Then said Abner unto him, Go, return. And he returned.
וַיָּבֹא אַבְנֵר אֶל-דָּוִד חֶבְרוֹן וְאִתּוֹ עֶשְׂרִים אֲנָשִׁים וַיַּעַשׂ דָּוִד לְאַבְנֵר וְלַֽאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר-אִתּוֹ מִשְׁתֶּֽה׃
20
So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. And David made Abner and the men that were with him a feast.
וְאָֽנֹכִי הַיּוֹם רַךְ וּמָשׁוּחַ מֶלֶךְ וְהָֽאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה בְּנֵי צְרוּיָה קָשִׁים מִמֶּנִּי יְשַׁלֵּם יְהוָה לְעֹשֵׂה הָֽרָעָה כְּרָֽעָתֽוֹ׃

2
And Saul's son had two men that were captains of bands: the name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon a Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin: (for Beeroth also was reckoned to Benjamin:
אַף כִּֽי-אֲנָשִׁים רְשָׁעִים הָֽרְגוּ אֶת-אִישׁ-צַדִּיק בְּבֵיתוֹ עַל-מִשְׁכָּבוֹ וְעַתָּה הֲלוֹא אֲבַקֵּשׁ אֶת-דָּמוֹ מִיֶּדְכֶם וּבִֽעַרְתִּי אֶתְכֶם מִן-הָאָֽרֶץ׃
11
How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house upon his bed? shall I not therefore now require his blood of your hand, and take you away from the earth?

And she took a pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said, Have out all men from me. And they went out every man from him.

7
And, behold, the whole family is risen against thine handmaid, and they said, Deliver him that smote his brother, that we may kill him, for the life of his brother whom he slew; and we will destroy the heir also: and so they shall quench my coal which is left, and shall not leave to my husband neither name nor remainder upon the earth.
כִּי יִשְׁמַע הַמֶּלֶךְ לְהַצִּיל אֶת-אֲמָתוֹ מִכַּף הָאִישׁ לְהַשְׁמִיד אֹתִי וְאֶת-בְּנִי יַחַד מִֽנַּחֲלַת אֱלֹהִֽים׃
16
For the king will hear, to deliver his handmaid out of the hand of the man that would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God.
וּכְאַבְשָׁלוֹם לֹֽא-הָיָה אִישׁ-יָפֶה בְּכָל-יִשְׂרָאֵל לְהַלֵּל מְאֹד מִכַּף רַגְלוֹ וְעַד קָדְקֳדוֹ לֹא-הָיָה בוֹ מֽוּם׃
25
But in all Israel there was none 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 blemish in him.

2 Samuel 15

וַֽיְהִי מֵאַחֲרֵי כֵן וַיַּעַשׂ לוֹ אַבְשָׁלוֹם מֶרְכָּבָה וְסֻסִים וַֽחֲמִשִּׁים אִישׁ רָצִים לְפָנָֽיו׃
1
And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared him chariots and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
וְהִשְׁכִּים אַבְשָׁלוֹם וְעָמַד עַל-יַד דֶּרֶךְ הַשָּׁעַר וַיְהִי כָּל-הָאִישׁ אֲשֶֽׁר-יִֽהְיֶה-לּוֹ-רִיב לָבוֹא אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ לַמִּשְׁפָּט וַיִּקְרָא אַבְשָׁלוֹם אֵלָיו וַיֹּאמֶר אֵֽי-מִזֶּה עִיר אַתָּה וַיֹּאמֶר מֵֽאַחַד שִׁבְטֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל עַבְדֶּֽךָ׃
2
And Absalom rose up early, and stood beside the way of the gate: and it was so, that when any man that had a controversy came to the king for judgment, then Absalom called unto him, and said, Of what city art thou? And he said, Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.
וַיֹּאמֶר אַבְשָׁלוֹם מִי-יְשִׂמֵנִי שֹׁפֵט בָּאָרֶץ וְעָלַי יָבוֹא כָּל-אִישׁ אֲשֶֽׁר-יִֽהְיֶה-לּוֹ-רִיב וּמִשְׁפָּט וְהִצְדַּקְתִּֽיו׃
4
Absalom said moreover, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man which hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice!
וְהָיָה בִּקְרָב-אִישׁ לְהִשְׁתַּחֲוֹת לוֹ וְשָׁלַח אֶת-יָדוֹ וְהֶֽחֱזִיק לוֹ וְנָשַׁק לֽוֹ׃
5
And it was so, that when any man came nigh to him to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took him, and kissed him.
וַיַּעַשׂ אַבְשָׁלוֹם כַּדָּבָר הַזֶּה לְכָל-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר-יָבֹאוּ לַמִּשְׁפָּט אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיְגַנֵּב אַבְשָׁלוֹם אֶת-לֵב אַנְשֵׁי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
6
And on this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment: so Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
וְאֶת-אַבְשָׁלוֹם הָֽלְכוּ מָאתַיִם אִישׁ מִירוּשָׁלִַם קְרֻאִים וְהֹֽלְכִים לְתֻמָּם וְלֹא יָֽדְעוּ כָּל-דָּבָֽר׃
11
And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem, that were called; and they went in their simplicity, and they knew not any thing.
וַיָּבֹא הַמַּגִּיד אֶל-דָּוִד לֵאמֹר הָיָה לֶב-אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל אַֽחֲרֵי אַבְשָׁלֽוֹם׃
13
And there came a messenger to David, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.
וְכָל-עֲבָדָיו עֹֽבְרִים עַל-יָדוֹ וְכָל-הַכְּרֵתִי וְכָל-הַפְּלֵתִי וְכָֽל-הַגִּתִּים שֵׁשׁ-מֵאוֹת אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר-בָּאוּ בְרַגְלוֹ מִגַּת עֹֽבְרִים עַל-פְּנֵי הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
18
And all his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men which came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד אֶל-אִתַּי לֵךְ וַֽעֲבֹר וַֽיַּעֲבֹר אִתַּי הַגִּתִּי וְכָל-אֲנָשָׁיו וְכָל-הַטַּף אֲשֶׁר אִתּֽוֹ׃
22
And David said to Ittai, Go and pass over. And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that were with him.
וְדָוִד עֹלֶה בְמַֽעֲלֵה הַזֵּיתִים עֹלֶה׀ וּבוֹכֶה וְרֹאשׁ לוֹ חָפוּי וְהוּא הֹלֵךְ יָחֵף וְכָל-הָעָם אֲשֶׁר-אִתּוֹ חָפוּ אִישׁ רֹאשׁוֹ וְעָלוּ עָלֹה וּבָכֹֽה׃
30
And David went up by the ascent of mount Olivet, and wept as he went up, and had his head covered, and he went barefoot: and all the people that was with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.

2 Samuel 16

וּבָא הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִד עַד-בַּֽחוּרִים וְהִנֵּה מִשָּׁם אִישׁ יוֹצֵא מִמִּשְׁפַּחַת בֵּית-שָׁאוּל וּשְׁמוֹ שִׁמְעִי בֶן-גֵּרָא יֹצֵא יָצוֹא וּמְקַלֵּֽל׃
5
And when king David came to Bahurim, behold, thence came out a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera: he came forth, and cursed still as he came.
וְכֹֽה-אָמַר שִׁמְעִי בְּקַֽלְלוֹ צֵא צֵא אִישׁ הַדָּמִים וְאִישׁ הַבְּלִיָּֽעַל׃
7
And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Come out, come out, thou bloody man, and thou man of Belial:
הֵשִׁיב עָלֶיךָ יְהוָה כֹּל׀ דְּמֵי בֵית-שָׁאוּל אֲשֶׁר מָלַכְתָּ ‫(תחתו)‬ תַּחְתָּיו וַיִּתֵּן יְהוָה אֶת-הַמְּלוּכָה בְּיַד אַבְשָׁלוֹם בְּנֶךָ וְהִנְּךָ בְּרָעָתֶךָ כִּי אִישׁ דָּמִים אָֽתָּה׃
8
The LORD hath returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned; and the LORD hath delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son: and, behold, thou art taken in thy mischief, because thou art a bloody man.
וַיֵּלֶךְ דָּוִד וַֽאֲנָשָׁיו בַּדָּרֶךְ וְשִׁמְעִי הֹלֵךְ בְּצֵלַע הָהָר לְעֻמָּתוֹ הָלוֹךְ וַיְקַלֵּל וַיְסַקֵּל בָּֽאֲבָנִים לְעֻמָּתוֹ וְעִפַּר בֶּֽעָפָֽר׃
13
And as David and his men went by the way, Shimei went along on the hill's side over against him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him, and cast dust.
וְאַבְשָׁלוֹם וְכָל-הָעָם אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל בָּאוּ יְרֽוּשָׁלִָם וַֽאֲחִיתֹפֶל אִתּֽוֹ׃
15
And Absalom, and all the people the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
וַיֹּאמֶר חוּשַׁי אֶל-אַבְשָׁלֹם לֹא כִּי אֲשֶׁר בָּחַר יְהוָה וְהָעָם הַזֶּה וְכָל-אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל ‫(לא)‬ לוֹ אֶֽהְיֶה וְאִתּוֹ אֵשֵֽׁב׃
18
And Hushai said unto Absalom, Nay; but whom the LORD, and this people, and all the men of Israel, choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.
וַֽעֲצַת אֲחִיתֹפֶל אֲשֶׁר יָעַץ בַּיָּמִים הָהֵם כַּֽאֲשֶׁר יִשְׁאַל-אִישׁ בִּדְבַר הָֽאֱלֹהִים כֵּן כָּל-עֲצַת אֲחִיתֹפֶל גַּם-לְדָוִד גַּם לְאַבְשָׁלֹֽם׃
23
And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man had inquired at the oracle of God: so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.

2 Samuel 17

וַיֹּאמֶר אֲחִיתֹפֶל אֶל-אַבְשָׁלֹם אֶבְחֲרָה נָּא שְׁנֵים-עָשָׂר אֶלֶף אִישׁ וְאָקוּמָה וְאֶרְדְּפָה אַֽחֲרֵי-דָוִד הַלָּֽיְלָה׃
1
Moreover Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Let me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David this night:
וְאָשִׁיבָה כָל-הָעָם אֵלֶיךָ כְּשׁוּב הַכֹּל הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר אַתָּה מְבַקֵּשׁ כָּל-הָעָם יִֽהְיֶה שָׁלֽוֹם׃
3
And I will bring back all the people unto thee: the man whom thou seekest is as if all returned: so all the people shall be in peace.
וַיֹּאמֶר חוּשַׁי אַתָּה יָדַעְתָּ אֶת-אָבִיךָ וְאֶת-אֲנָשָׁיו כִּי גִבֹּרִים הֵמָּה וּמָרֵי נֶפֶשׁ הֵמָּה כְּדֹב שַׁכּוּל בַּשָּׂדֶה וְאָבִיךָ אִישׁ מִלְחָמָה וְלֹא יָלִין אֶת-הָעָֽם׃
8
For, said Hushai, thou knowest thy father and his men, that they be mighty men, and they be chafed in their minds, as a bear robbed of her whelps in the field: and thy father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.
וּבָאנוּ אֵלָיו ‫(באחת)‬ בְּאַחַד הַמְּקוֹמֹת אֲשֶׁר נִמְצָא שָׁם וְנַחְנוּ עָלָיו כַּֽאֲשֶׁר יִפֹּל הַטַּל עַל-הָֽאֲדָמָה וְלֹא-נוֹתַר בּוֹ וּבְכָל-הָֽאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר-אִתּוֹ גַּם-אֶחָֽד׃
12
So shall we come upon him in some place where he shall be found, and we will light upon him as the dew falleth on the ground: and of him and of all the men that are with him there shall not be left so much as one.
וַיֹּאמֶר אַבְשָׁלוֹם וְכָל-אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל טוֹבָה עֲצַת חוּשַׁי הָֽאַרְכִּי מֵֽעֲצַת אֲחִיתֹפֶל וַֽיהוָה צִוָּה לְהָפֵר אֶת-עֲצַת אֲחִיתֹפֶל הַטּוֹבָה לְבַֽעֲבוּר הָבִיא יְהוָה אֶל-אַבְשָׁלוֹם אֶת-הָֽרָעָֽה׃
14
And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel. For the LORD had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil upon Absalom.
וַיַּרְא אֹתָם נַעַר וַיַּגֵּד לְאַבְשָׁלֹם וַיֵּֽלְכוּ שְׁנֵיהֶם מְהֵרָה וַיָּבֹאוּ׀ אֶל-בֵּֽית-אִישׁ בְּבַֽחוּרִים וְלוֹ בְאֵר בַּֽחֲצֵרוֹ וַיֵּרְדוּ שָֽׁם׃
18
Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told Absalom: but they went both of them away quickly, and came to a man's house in Bahurim, which had a well in his court; whither they went down.
וְדָוִד בָּא מַֽחֲנָיְמָה וְאַבְשָׁלֹם עָבַר אֶת-הַיַּרְדֵּן הוּא וְכָל-אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל עִמּֽוֹ׃
24
Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
וְאֶת-עֲמָשָׂא שָׂם אַבְשָׁלֹם תַּחַת יוֹאָב עַל-הַצָּבָא וַֽעֲמָשָׂא בֶן-אִישׁ וּשְׁמוֹ יִתְרָא הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִי אֲשֶׁר-בָּא אֶל-אֲבִיגַל בַּת-נָחָשׁ אֲחוֹת צְרוּיָה אֵם יוֹאָֽב׃
25
And Absalom made Amasa captain of the host instead of Joab: which Amasa was a man's son, whose name was Ithra an Israelite, that went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Joab's mother.

2 Samuel 18

וַיַּרְא אִישׁ אֶחָד וַיַּגֵּד לְיוֹאָב וַיֹּאמֶר הִנֵּה רָאִיתִי אֶת-אַבְשָׁלֹם תָּלוּי בָּֽאֵלָֽה׃
10
And a certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, Behold, I saw Absalom hanged in an oak.
וַיֹּאמֶר יוֹאָב לָאִישׁ הַמַּגִּיד לוֹ וְהִנֵּה רָאִיתָ וּמַדּוּעַ לֹֽא-הִכִּיתוֹ שָׁם אָרְצָה וְעָלַי לָתֶת לְךָ עֲשָׂרָה כֶסֶף וַֽחֲגֹרָה אֶחָֽת׃
11
And Joab said unto the man that told him, And, behold, thou sawest him, and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? and I would have given thee ten shekels of silver, and a girdle.
וַיֹּאמֶר הָאִישׁ אֶל-יוֹאָב ‫(ולא)‬ וְלוּא אָֽנֹכִי שֹׁקֵל עַל-כַּפַּי אֶלֶף כֶּסֶף לֹֽא-אֶשְׁלַח יָדִי אֶל-בֶּן-הַמֶּלֶךְ כִּי בְאָזְנֵינוּ צִוָּה הַמֶּלֶךְ אֹֽתְךָ וְאֶת-אֲבִישַׁי וְאֶת-אִתַּי לֵאמֹר שִׁמְרוּ-מִי בַּנַּעַר בְּאַבְשָׁלֽוֹם׃
12
And the man said unto Joab, Though I should receive a thousand shekels of silver in mine hand, yet would I not put forth mine hand against the king's son: for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Beware that none touch the young man Absalom.
וַיִּקְחוּ אֶת-אַבְשָׁלוֹם וַיַּשְׁלִכוּ אֹתוֹ בַיַּעַר אֶל-הַפַּחַת הַגָּדוֹל וַיַּצִּבוּ עָלָיו גַּל-אֲבָנִים גָּדוֹל מְאֹד וְכָל-יִשְׂרָאֵל נָסוּ אִישׁ ‫(לאהלו)‬ לְאֹהָלָֽיו׃
17
And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in the wood, and laid a very great heap of stones upon him: and all Israel fled every one to his tent.
וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ יוֹאָב לֹא אִישׁ בְּשֹׂרָה אַתָּה הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה וּבִשַּׂרְתָּ בְּיוֹם אַחֵר וְהַיּוֹם הַזֶּה לֹא תְבַשֵּׂר כִּֽי ‫(על)‬ עַל-‫(כן)‬ בֶּן-הַמֶּלֶךְ מֵֽת׃
20
And Joab said unto him, Thou shalt not bear tidings this day, but thou shalt bear tidings another day: but this day thou shalt bear no tidings, because the king's son is dead.
וְדָוִד יוֹשֵׁב בֵּין-שְׁנֵי הַשְּׁעָרִים וַיֵּלֶךְ הַצֹּפֶה אֶל-גַּג הַשַּׁעַר אֶל-הַחוֹמָה וַיִּשָּׂא אֶת-עֵינָיו וַיַּרְא וְהִנֵּה-אִישׁ רָץ לְבַדּֽוֹ׃
24
And David sat between the two gates: and the watchman went up to the roof over the gate unto the wall, and lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold a man running alone.
וַיַּרְא הַצֹּפֶה אִישׁ-אַחֵר רָץ וַיִּקְרָא הַצֹּפֶה אֶל-הַשֹּׁעֵר וַיֹּאמֶר הִנֵּה-אִישׁ רָץ לְבַדּוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ גַּם-זֶה מְבַשֵּֽׂר׃
26
And the watchman saw another man running: and the watchman called unto the porter, and said, Behold another man running alone. And the king said, He also bringeth tidings.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַצֹּפֶה אֲנִי רֹאֶה אֶת-מְרוּצַת הָֽרִאשׁוֹן כִּמְרֻצַת אֲחִימַעַץ בֶּן-צָדוֹק וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ אִֽישׁ-טוֹב זֶה וְאֶל-בְּשׂוֹרָה טוֹבָה יָבֽוֹא׃
27
And the watchman said, Me thinketh the running of the foremost is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok. And the king said, He is a good man, and cometh with good tidings.
וַיִּקְרָא אֲחִימַעַץ וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ שָׁלוֹם וַיִּשְׁתַּחוּ לַמֶּלֶךְ לְאַפָּיו אָרְצָה וַיֹּאמֶר בָּרוּךְ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ אֲשֶׁר סִגַּר אֶת-הָאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר-נָֽשְׂאוּ אֶת-יָדָם בַּֽאדֹנִי הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
28
And Ahimaaz called, and said unto the king, All is well. And he fell down to the earth upon his face before the king, and said, Blessed be the LORD thy God, which hath delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king.

2 Samuel 19

וְעַתָּה קוּם צֵא וְדַבֵּר עַל-לֵב עֲבָדֶיךָ כִּי בַֽיהוָה נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי כִּֽי-אֵינְךָ יוֹצֵא אִם-יָלִין אִישׁ אִתְּךָ הַלַּיְלָה וְרָעָה לְךָ זֹאת מִכָּל-הָֽרָעָה אֲשֶׁר-בָּאָה עָלֶיךָ מִנְּעֻרֶיךָ עַד-עָֽתָּה׃
7
Now therefore arise, go forth, and speak comfortably unto thy servants: for I swear by the LORD, if thou go not forth, there will not tarry one with thee this night: and that will be worse unto thee than all the evil that befell thee from thy youth until now.
וַיָּקָם הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֵּשֶׁב בַּשָּׁעַר וּֽלְכָל-הָעָם הִגִּידוּ לֵאמֹר הִנֵּה הַמֶּלֶךְ יוֹשֵׁב בַּשַּׁעַר וַיָּבֹא כָל-הָעָם לִפְנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וְיִשְׂרָאֵל נָס אִישׁ לְאֹֽהָלָֽיו׃
8
Then the king arose, and sat in the gate. And they told unto all the people, saying, Behold, the king doth sit in the gate. And all the people came before the king: for Israel had fled every man to his tent.
וַיַּט אֶת-לְבַב כָּל-אִישׁ-יְהוּדָה כְּאִישׁ אֶחָד וַֽיִּשְׁלְחוּ אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ שׁוּב אַתָּה וְכָל-עֲבָדֶֽיךָ׃
14
And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as the heart of one man; so that they sent this word unto the king, Return thou, and all thy servants.
וַיְמַהֵר שִׁמְעִי בֶן-גֵּרָא בֶּן-הַיְמִינִי אֲשֶׁר מִבַּֽחוּרִים וַיֵּרֶד עִם-אִישׁ יְהוּדָה לִקְרַאת הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִֽד׃
16
And Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite, which was of Bahurim, hasted and came down with the men of Judah to meet king David.
וְאֶלֶף אִישׁ עִמּוֹ מִבִּנְיָמִן וְצִיבָא נַעַר בֵּית שָׁאוּל וַֽחֲמֵשֶׁת עָשָׂר בָּנָיו וְעֶשְׂרִים עֲבָדָיו אִתּוֹ וְצָֽלְחוּ הַיַּרְדֵּן לִפְנֵי הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
17
And there were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went over Jordan before the king.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִד מַה-לִּי וְלָכֶם בְּנֵי צְרוּיָה כִּֽי-תִֽהְיוּ-לִי הַיּוֹם לְשָׂטָן הַיּוֹם יוּמַת אִישׁ בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי הֲלוֹא יָדַעְתִּי כִּי הַיּוֹם אֲנִי-מֶלֶךְ עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
22
And David said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries unto me? shall there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?
כִּי לֹא הָיָה כָּל-בֵּית אָבִי כִּי אִם-אַנְשֵׁי-מָוֶת לַֽאדֹנִי הַמֶּלֶךְ וַתָּשֶׁת אֶֽת-עַבְדְּךָ בְּאֹֽכְלֵי שֻׁלְחָנֶךָ וּמַה-יֶּשׁ-לִי עוֹד צְדָקָה וְלִזְעֹק עוֹד אֶל-הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
28
For all of my father's house were but dead men before my lord the king: yet didst thou set thy servant among them that did eat at thine own table. What right therefore have I yet to cry any more unto the king?
וּבַרְזִלַּי זָקֵן מְאֹד בֶּן-שְׁמֹנִים שָׁנָה וְהֽוּא-כִלְכַּל אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּשִֽׁיבָתוֹ בְמַֽחֲנַיִם כִּי-אִישׁ גָּדוֹל הוּא מְאֹֽד׃
32
Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even fourscore years old: and he had provided the king of sustenance while he lay at Mahanaim; for he was a very great man.
וְהִנֵּה כָּל-אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל בָּאִים אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ מַדּוּעַ גְּנָבוּךָ אַחֵינוּ אִישׁ יְהוּדָה וַיַּֽעֲבִרוּ אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֶת-בֵּיתוֹ אֶת-הַיַּרְדֵּן וְכָל-אַנְשֵׁי דָוִד עִמּֽוֹ׃
41
And, behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said unto the king, Why have our brethren the men of Judah stolen thee away, and have brought the king, and his household, and all David's men with him, over Jordan?
וַיַּעַן כָּל-אִישׁ יְהוּדָה עַל-אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּֽי-קָרוֹב הַמֶּלֶךְ אֵלַי וְלָמָּה זֶּה חָרָה לְךָ עַל-הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה הֶֽאָכוֹל אָכַלְנוּ מִן-הַמֶּלֶךְ אִם-נִשֵּׂאת נִשָּׂא לָֽנוּ׃
42
And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, Because the king is near of kin to us: wherefore then be ye angry for this matter? have we eaten at all of the king's cost? or hath he given us any gift?
וַיַּעַן אִֽישׁ-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת-אִישׁ יְהוּדָה וַיֹּאמֶר עֶֽשֶׂר-יָדוֹת לִי בַמֶּלֶךְ וְגַם-בְּדָוִד אֲנִי מִמְּךָ וּמַדּוּעַ הֱקִלֹּתַנִי וְלֹֽא-הָיָה דְבָרִי רִאשׁוֹן לִי לְהָשִׁיב אֶת-מַלְכִּי וַיִּקֶשׁ דְּבַר-אִישׁ יְהוּדָה מִדְּבַר אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
43
And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more right in David than ye: why then did ye despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king? And the words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
