2 Samuel 17:18-20

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁸ Nevertheless, a young man saw them and told Absalom, but both of them went away quickly and came to a man’s house in Bahurim, who had a well in his court, and they went down into it.

¹⁹ And the woman of the house took and spread a covering over the well’s mouth and spread ground wheat upon it, and the thing was not known.

²⁰ And when Absalom’s slaves came to the woman to the house, they said, Where is Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said unto them, They have gone over the brook of water. And when they had sought and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.
