2 Samuel 18:26-28
American Standard Version
26 And the watchman saw another man running; and the watchman called unto the porter, and said, Behold, another man running alone. And the king said, He also bringeth tidings. 27 And the watchman said, I think the running of the foremost is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok. And the king said, He is a good man, and cometh with good tidings.
28 And Ahimaaz called, and said unto the king, [a]All is well. And he bowed himself before the king with his face to the earth, and said, Blessed be Jehovah thy God, who hath delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king.

The king said, “He must be bringing good news,(A) too.”
27 The watchman said, “It seems to me that the first one runs like(B) Ahimaaz son of Zadok.”
“He’s a good man,” the king said. “He comes with good news.”
