2 Samuel 18:26-28

Good News Translation

²⁶ Then the lookout saw another man running alone, and he called down to the gatekeeper, “Look! There's another man running!”

The king answered, “This one also is bringing good news.”

²⁷ The lookout said, “I can see that the first man runs like Ahimaaz.”

“He's a good man,” the king said, “and he is bringing good news.”

²⁸ Ahimaaz called out a greeting to the king, threw himself down to the ground before him, and said, “Praise the Lord your God, who has given you victory over the men who rebelled against Your Majesty!”
