Abner conferred with the elders of Israel: “In the past you wanted David to be king over you.
They brought Ish-bosheth’s head to David at Hebron and said to the king, “Here’s the head of Ish-bosheth son of Saul, your enemy who intended to take your life. Today the LORD has granted vengeance to my lord the king against Saul and his offspring.”
“How much more when wicked men kill a righteous man in his own house on his own bed! So now, should I not require his blood from you and purge you from the earth? ”
When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, they all went in search of David, but he heard about it and went down to the stronghold.
David pleaded with God for the boy. He fasted, went home, and spent the night lying on the ground.
Then David said to Abishai and all his servants, “Look, my own son, my own flesh and blood,[fn] intends to take my life — how much more now this Benjaminite! Leave him alone and let him curse me; the LORD has told him to.
“and bring all the people back to you. When everyone returns except the man you’re looking for, all[fn] the people will be at peace.”
Absalom’s servants came to the woman at the house and asked, “Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan? ”
“They passed by toward the water,”[fn] the woman replied to them. The men searched but did not find them, so they returned to Jerusalem.
“I am one of the peaceful and faithful in Israel, but you’re trying to destroy a city that is like a mother in Israel. Why would you devour the LORD’s inheritance? ”
During David’s reign there was a famine for three successive years, so David inquired[fn] of the LORD. The LORD answered, “It is due to Saul and to his bloody family, because he killed the Gibeonites.”
