20 Joab lui dit: Ce n’est pas toi qui dois porter aujourd’hui les nouvelles; tu les porteras un autre jour, mais non aujourd’hui, puisque le fils du roi est mort.

22 Achimaats, fils de Tsadok, dit encore à Joab: Quoi qu’il arrive, laisse-moi courir après Cuschi. Et Joab dit: Pourquoi veux-tu courir, mon fils? Ce n’est pas un message qui te sera profitable.
23 Quoi qu’il arrive, je veux courir, reprit Achimaats. Et Joab lui dit: Cours! Achimaats courut par le chemin de la plaine, et il devança Cuschi.
24 David était assis entre les deux portes. La sentinelle alla sur le toit de la porte vers la muraille; elle leva les yeux et regarda. Et voici, un homme courait tout seul.
