2 Samuel

  • Absalom Killed

  • |2 Samuel 18:1| Then David mustered the men who were with him and set over them commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds.

  • |2 Samuel 18:2| And David sent out the army, one third under the command of Joab, one third under the command of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and one third under the command of a Ittai the Gittite. And the king said to the men, “I myself will also go out with you.”

  • |2 Samuel 18:3| b But the men said, “You shall not go out. For if we flee, they will not care about us. If half of us die, they will not care about us. But you are worth ten thousand of us. Therefore it is better that you send us help from the city.”

  • |2 Samuel 18:4| The king said to them, “Whatever seems best to you I will do.” So the king stood at the side of the gate, while all the army marched out by hundreds and by thousands.

  • |2 Samuel 18:5| And the king ordered Joab and Abishai and Ittai, “Deal gently for my sake with the young man Absalom.” c And all the people heard when the king gave orders to all the commanders about Absalom.

  • |2 Samuel 18:6| So the army went out into the field against Israel, and the battle was fought in the d forest of Ephraim.

  • |2 Samuel 18:7| And the men of Israel were defeated there by the servants of David, and the loss there was great on that day, twenty thousand men.

  • |2 Samuel 18:8| The battle spread over the face of all the country, and the forest devoured more people that day than the sword.

  • |2 Samuel 18:9| And Absalom happened to meet the servants of David. Absalom was riding on his mule, and the mule went under the thick branches of a great oak, 1 e and his head caught fast in the oak, and he was suspended between heaven and earth, while the mule that was under him went on.

  • |2 Samuel 18:10| And a certain man saw it and told Joab, “Behold, I saw Absalom hanging in an oak.”
