34 Meanwhile, Absalom (my father is peace) had fled. When the young man standing watch looked up, he saw many people coming down the road west of him (behind him), along the side of the hill. And the watchman went and reported to the king, “I see men coming from the direction of Horonaim, along the side of the hill.” 35 So Jonadab (YHWH is willing) 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 (my father is peace) fled and went to Talmai (furrowed) son of Ammihud (people of majesty), the king of Geshur (proud beholder). But David mourned for his son every day. 38 After Absalom (my father is peace) had fled and gone to Geshur (proud beholder), he stayed there three years. 39 And King David [And the spirit of the king] longed to go to Absalom (ceased to go out after Absalom), for he had been consoled over Amnon’s (faithful) death. 2 Samuel 13:34-39, Berean Annotated Bible.
