2 Samuel 3:34

3:34 Your hands ¹  were not bound,

and your feet were not put into irons.

You fell the way one falls before criminals.”

All the people ²  wept over him again.

2 Samuel 15:11

15:11 Now two hundred men had gone with Absalom from Jerusalem. Since they were invited, they went naively and were unaware of what Absalom was planning. ³

¹ tc The translation follows many medieval Hebrew manuscripts and several ancient versions in reading “your hands,” rather than “your hand.”

² tc 4QSam^a lacks the words “all the people.”

³ tn Heb “being invited and going naively and they did not know anything.”
