2 Samuel 17:17-21
Magandang Balita Biblia
17 Para walang makakita sa kanila, sina Jonatan at Ahimaaz ay hindi na pumasok ng lunsod; doon na lamang sila naghintay sa En-rogel. Ang anumang balita para kay David ay dinadala sa kanila ng isang aliping babae. 18 Ngunit may binatilyo palang nakakita sa kanila at ito ang nagsumbong kay Absalom. Nang malaman nila ito, umalis agad ang dalawa at nagtago sa Bahurim. Lumusong sila sa balon sa loob ng bakuran ng isang tagaroon. 19 Tinakpan agad ng asawa nito ang balon at kinalatan ng trigo ang ibabaw niyon upang hindi paghinalaang may nagtatago roon. 20 Dumating ang mga alipin ni Absalom at nagtanong sa babae, “Saan naroon sina Ahimaaz at Jonatan?”
“Tumawid na sila sa ilog,” tugon ng babae.
Ginalugad nila ang lugar na iyon, ngunit walang nakita, kaya't nagbalik na sila sa Jerusalem. 21 Pagkaalis ng mga tauhan, umahon sa balon ang dalawa. Nagpunta agad sila kay David at ipinagtapat ang masamang binabalak ni Ahitofel. Pagkatapos, sinabi nila, “Tumawid kayo agad ng ilog.”

2 Samuel 17:17-21
New International Version
17 Jonathan(A) and Ahimaaz were staying at En Rogel.(B) A female servant was to go and inform them, and they were to go and tell King David, for they could not risk being seen entering the city. 18 But a young man saw them and told Absalom. So the two of them left at once and went to the house of a man in Bahurim.(C) He had a well in his courtyard, and they climbed down into it. 19 His wife took a covering and spread it out over the opening of the well and scattered grain over it. No one knew anything about it.(D)
20 When Absalom’s men came to the woman(E) at the house, they asked, “Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?”
The woman answered them, “They crossed over the brook.”[a] The men searched but found no one, so they returned to Jerusalem.
21 After they had gone, the two climbed out of the well and went to inform King David. They said to him, “Set out and cross the river at once; Ahithophel has advised such and such against you.”
