36 And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of speaking, that, behold, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voice and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept very sore.
37 But Ab´salom fled, and went to Tal´mai, the son of Ammi´hud, king of Geshur. And David mourned for his son every day.
38 So Ab´salom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.
39 And the soul of king David longed to go forth unto Ab´salom: for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.
