NHEB(i)
2 I will come on him while he is weary and exhausted, and will make him afraid. All the people who are with him shall flee. I will strike the king only,
3 and I will bring back all the people to you, as a bride returns to her husband. You seek the life of only one man; then all the people will be in peace."
4 The saying pleased Absalom well, and all the elders of Israel.
