2 Samuel 13:34-39 - Absalom Flees

34 But Absalom fled. And the young man that kept the watch lifted up his eyes and looked about. And behold, there came much people by a way that was behind his back along by a hill's side. 35 Then said Jonadab unto the king, "Behold, the king's sons are come; and as thy servant said, so it is." 36 And as soon as he had left speaking: behold, the king's sons came and lifted up their voices and wept. And thereto the king and all his servants wept exceedingly.

37 But Absalom escaped and went to Talmai the son of Ammihud king of Geshur. And the king mourned for his son continually. 38 And so Absalom escaped and went to Geshur, and was there three years. 39 And by that time, the king turned his mind from pursuing Absalom. For he had left mourning for the death of Amnon.
