Read in context

2 Samuel 13:35–39 · Berean Standard Bible

35 So Jonadab said to the king, “Look, the sons of the king have arrived! It is just as your servant said.”

36 And as he finished speaking, the sons of the king came in, wailing loudly. Then the king and all his servants also wept very bitterly.

37 Now Absalom fled and went to Talmai son of Ammihud, the king of Geshur. But David mourned for his son every day.

38 After Absalom had fled and gone to Geshur, he stayed there three years.

39 And King David longed to go to Absalom, for he had been consoled over Amnon’s death.
