2 Samuel 18:24-26

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁴ Now David was sitting between the two gates; and the watchman went up to the roof over the gate by the wall, and when he looked, he saw a man running alone.

²⁵ The watchman called out and told the king. The king said, If he is alone, he has news to tell. And he came on and drew near.

²⁶ Then the watchman saw another man running, and the watchman called to the gatekeeper, Behold, another man running alone. The king said, He also brings news.
