← 2 Samuel 19:2	2 Samuel 19:3 (KJV)	2 Samuel 19:4 →
And the victory that day was [turned] into mourning unto all the people: for the people heard say that day how the king was grieved for his son.	And the people gat them by stealth that day into the city, as people being ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.	But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!
