- Ahimaaz called and said to the king, "All is well." And he prostrated himself before the king with his face to the ground And he said, "Blessed is the LORD your God, who has delivered up the men who lifted their hands against my lord the king."
- The king said, "Is it well with the young man Absalom?" And Ahimaaz answered, "When Joab sent the king's servant, and your servant, I saw a great tumult, but I did not know what it was."
- Then the king said, "Turn aside and stand here." So he turned aside and stood still.

- 王问说,少年人押沙龙平安不平安。亚希玛斯回答说,约押打发王的仆人,那时仆人听见众民大声喧哗,却不知道是什么事。
- 王说,你退去,站在旁边。他就退去,站在旁边。
