2 Samuel 17:16-18

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁶ “Now, therefore, send quickly, and tell David, saying, “Do not stay in the fields of the wilderness this night. But cross over, lest the king and all the people who are with him are devoured.”

¹⁷ Now, Jonathan and Ahimaaz stayed by En Rogel, for they could not be seen coming into the city. And a maid went and told them, and they went and told King David.

¹⁸ Nevertheless, a young man saw them, and told it to Absalom. Therefore, they both departed quickly and came to a man’s house in Bahurim who had a well in his court, into which they went down.
