2 Samuel 18:17 in Context — 2 Samuel 18
15 Cercando-o logo dez rapazes escudeiros de Joabe, feriram a Absalão, e acabaram-lhe.
16 Então Joabe tocou a trombeta, e o povo deixou de seguir a Israel, porque Joabe deteve ao povo.
17 Tomando depois a Absalão, lançaram-lhe em um grande fosso no bosque, e levantaram sobre ele um muito grande amontoado de pedras; e todo Israel fugiu, cada um a suas moradas.
18 E havia Absalão em sua vida tomado e levantado-se uma coluna, a qual está no vale do rei; porque havia dito: Eu não tenho filho que conserve a memória de meu nome. E chamou aquela coluna de seu nome: e assim se chamou o Lugar de Absalão, até hoje.
19 Então Aimaás filho de Zadoque disse: Correrei agora, e darei as novas ao rei de como o SENHOR defendeu sua causa da mão de seus inimigos?
