2 Samuel 18:23-25

International Children’s Bible

²³ Ahimaaz answered, “No matter what happens, I will run.”

So Joab said to Ahimaaz, “Run!” Then Ahimaaz ran by way of the Jordan Valley and passed the Cushite.

²⁴ Now David was sitting between the inner and outer gates of the city. The watchman went up to the roof by the gate walls. As he looked up, he saw a man running alone. ²⁵ He shouted to tell King David.

The king said, “If he is alone, he is bringing good news!”

The man came nearer and nearer to the city.
