25 The watchman called out to the king and reported it.
The king said, “If he is alone, he must have good news.” And the runner came closer and closer.
26 Then the watchman saw another runner, and he called down to the gatekeeper, “Look, another man running alone!”
The king said, “He must be bringing good news,(A) too.”
27 The watchman said, “It seems to me that the first one runs like(B) Ahimaaz son of Zadok.”
“He’s a good man,” the king said. “He comes with good news.”
