Talált 116 Eredmények: Absalom's rebellion
Absalom sent spies throughout the tribes of Israel with this instruction, "As soon as you hear the trumpet sound, proclaim: 'Absalom is king in Hebron!" (2 Samuel 15, 10)
Two hundred men from Jerusalem had left with Absalom as invited guests. But nothing of his purpose dawned on them. (2 Samuel 15, 11)
While Absalom was offering the sacrifices, he sent for Ahitophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city Giloh. Meantime, the conspiracy grew strong and the number of people with Absalom kept increasing. (2 Samuel 15, 12)
A messenger came to report to David that the Israelites were siding with Absalom. (2 Samuel 15, 13)
Then David said to all his servants who were with him in Jerusalem, "Let us flee, for we cannot resist Absalom. Go quickly, lest he come hurriedly and overtake us. Surely he will put the city to the sword if he can bring disaster upon us." (2 Samuel 15, 14)
When David was informed that Ahitophel was among the conspirators with Absalom, he said, "O Yahweh, turn the counsel of Ahitophel into folly." (2 Samuel 15, 31)
It would be better for you to return to the city and say to Absalom, 'I will be your servant, O king! Just as I have been your father's servant in the past, I will now be your servant.' In that way you will be useful to me in thwarting the counsel of Ahitophel. (2 Samuel 15, 34)
So David's friend Hushai arrived in the city just as Absalom was entering Jerusalem. (2 Samuel 15, 37)
Yahweh has brought down on your head all the blood of the family of Saul. You became king in his place, but God has now placed the kingdom in the hands of your son Absalom. Ruin has come upon you because you are a bloodthirsty man." (2 Samuel 16, 8)
Now Absalom, accompanied by Ahitophel, entered Jerusalem with all the Israelites. (2 Samuel 16, 15)
When Hushai the Archite, David's friend, appeared before Absalom and exclaimed, "Long live the king!" (2 Samuel 16, 16)
Absalom said to Hushai, "Is this your loyalty to your friend? Why did you not go with your friend?" (2 Samuel 16, 17)
