2 Samuel 18:24-27 ▼

24 And David was sitting between the two gates, and the watchman went up to the roof of the gate to the wall, and he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man was running by himself.

25 And the watchman cried out and told the king. And the king said, “If he is by himself, news is in his mouth.” And he came, coming on and drawing near.

26 And the watchman saw another man running, and the watchman called to the gatekeeper, and said, “Behold, a man is running by himself.” And the king said, “Also this one brings news.”

27 And the watchman said, “I think the running of the first is like the running of Ahimaaz son of Zadok.” And the king said, “This one is a good man, and with good news he comes.”
