2 Samuel 19:1-3

New American Standard Bible

Joab Disapproves of David’s Mourning

19 ^[a]Then it was reported to Joab, “Behold, ^(A)the king is weeping and he mourns for Absalom.” ² So the ^[b]victory that day was turned into mourning for all the people, because the people heard it said that day, “The king is in mourning over his son.” ³ And the people entered the city surreptitiously that day, just as people who are humiliated surreptitiously flee in battle.
