← 2 Samuel 18:28	2 Samuel 18:29 (KJV)	2 Samuel 18:30 →
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.	And the king said, Is the young man Absalom safe? And Ahimaaz answered, When Joab sent the king's servant, and [me] thy servant, I saw a great tumult, but I knew not what [it was].	And the king said [unto him], Turn aside, [and] stand here. And he turned aside, and stood still.
