2 Samuel 17:16-18

New King James Version

¹⁶ Now therefore, send quickly and tell David, saying, ‘Do not spend this night ^(A)in the plains of the wilderness, but speedily cross over, lest the king and all the people who are with him be swallowed up.’ ” ^17 (B)Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz ^(C)stayed at ^(D)En Rogel, for they dared not be seen coming into the city; so a female servant would come and tell them, and they would go and tell King David. ¹⁸ Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told Absalom. But both of them went away quickly and came to a man’s house ^(E)in Bahurim, who had a well in his court; and they went down into it.
