TSK · 1 Chronicles 3:2

The fourth, Adonia the sonne of Haggith: the fyft, Sephatia the sonne of Abital:

And Absalom her brother saide vnto her: Hath Amnon thy brother ben with thee? Now yet be still my sister, he is thy brother, let not this thing greeue thyne heart. And so Thamar remayned desolate in her brother Absaloms house.

And so Ioab arose, and went to Gesur, and brought Absalom to Hierusalem.

For thy seruaunt vowed a vowe (when I was in Gesur in Siria) saying: If the Lorde shall bring me againe in deede to Hierusalem, I wil serue the Lorde.

And this Absalom yet in his lyfe time toke and reared vp a piller, whiche is in the kinges dale: For he sayd, I haue no sonne to kepe my name in remembraunce, and he called the piller after his owne name, and it is called vnto this day Absaloms place.

But the king hyd his face, and cryed with a loude voyce: O my sonne Absalom, O Absalom my sonne, my sonne.

And his father for his time would not displease him, to say why hast thou done so? And he was a very goodly man: and his mother bare him next after Absalom.

And he ouercame Gessur and Aram the townes of Iair, from them which dwelt in them and Kenath and the townes therof, euen threescore townes: All these were the sonnes of Machir the father of Gilead.
