28 Achimaats cria, et il dit au roi: Tout va bien! Il se prosterna devant le roi la face contre terre, et dit: Béni soit l’Éternel, ton Dieu, qui a livré les hommes qui levaient la main contre le roi mon seigneur!

29 Le roi dit: Le jeune Absalom est-il en bonne santé? Achimaats répondit: J’ai aperçu un grand tumulte au moment où Joab envoya le serviteur du roi et moi ton serviteur; mais je ne sais ce que c’était.

30 Et le roi dit: Mets-toi là de côté. Et Achimaats se tint de côté.
