NASB
"The king covered his face and cried out with a loud voice, "O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!""
— 2 Samuel 19:4, NASB
“But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!”
“And the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son! ”
“The king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, "My son Absalom, Absalom, my son, my son!"”
“The king covered his face and cried out loudly,“My son, Absalom! Absalom, my son, my son!””
“And the king covered his head, and cried with a loud voice: O my son Absalom, O Absalom my son, O my son.”
“But the king, covering his face, gave a great cry, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!”
“But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!”
Then it was told Joab, "Behold, the king is weeping and mourns for Absalom."
The victory that day was turned to mourning for all the people, for the people heard it said that day, "The king is grieved for his son."
So the people went by stealth into the city that day, as people who are humiliated steal away when they flee in battle.
The king covered his face and cried out with a loud voice, "O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!"
Then Joab came into the house to the king and said, "Today you have covered with shame the faces of all your servants, who today have saved your life and the lives of your sons and daughters, the lives of your wives, and the lives of your concubines,
by loving those who hate you, and by hating those who love you. For you have shown today that princes and servants are nothing to you; for I know this day that if Absalom were alive and all of us were dead today, then you would be pleased.
"Now therefore arise, go out and speak kindly to your servants, for I swear by the LORD, if you do not go out, surely not a man will pass the night with you, and this will be worse for you than all the evil that has come upon you from your youth until now."
