25 O vigilante deu logo vozes, e o fez saber ao rei. E o rei disse: Se está sozinho, boas novas traze. Em tanto que ele vinha aproximando-se,

26 Viu o vigilante outro que corria; e deu vozes o vigilante ao porteiro, dizendo: Eis que outro homem que corre sozinho. E o rei disse: Este também é mensageiro.

27 E o vigilante voltou a dizer: Parece-me o correr do primeiro como o correr de Aimaás filho de Zadoque. E respondeu o rei: Esse é homem de bem, e vem com boa nova.

28 Então Aimaás disse em alta voz ao rei: Paz. E inclinou-se à terra diante do rei, e disse: Bendito seja o SENHOR Deus teu, que entregou aos homens que haviam levantado suas mãos contra meu senhor o rei.

29 E o rei disse: O jovem Absalão tem paz? E Aimaás respondeu: Vi eu um grande alvoroço quando enviou Joabe ao servo do rei e a mim teu servo; mas não sei que era.
