2 Samuel 13:37

Context
13:37 But Absalom fled and went to King Talmai son of Ammihud of Geshur. And David 1  grieved over his son every day.

2 Samuel 15:8

Context
15:8 For I made this vow 2  when I was living in Geshur in Aram: ‘If the Lord really does allow me to return to Jerusalem, 3  I will serve the Lord.’”

1 tc The Hebrew text leaves the word “David” to be inferred. The Syriac Peshitta and Vulgate add the word “David.” Most of the Greek tradition includes the words “King David” here.

2 tn Heb “for your servant vowed a vow.” The formal court style of referring to one’s self in third person (“your servant”) has been translated here as first person for clarity.
