And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that tidings came to David, saying, Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.

Verse 30 is found in chapter 13 of 2 Samuel. Absalom flees to Geshur and remains there for three years while David mourns the situation involving his son. Their relationship remains suspended without genuine reconciliation. The king desires to see Absalom but does not fully resolve the moral and family problem between them. The physical distance reflects an internal rupture that will prepare Absalom’s later return and ultimately his rebellion against David.

Und da sie noch auf dem Wege waren, kam das Gerücht vor David, daß Absalom hätte alle Kinder des Königs erschlagen, daß nicht einer von ihnen übrig wäre.
Y estando aún ellos en el camino, llegó a David el rumor que decía: Absalom ha muerto a todos los hijos del rey, que ninguno de ellos ha quedado.
Comme ils étaient en chemin, le bruit parvint à David qu'Absalom avait tué tous les fils du roi, et qu'il n'en était pas resté un seul.
Ora, mentre erano ancora per cammino, il grido venne a Davide, che Absalom avea percossi tutti i figliuoli del re, e che niuno di loro era scampato.
E aconteceu que, estando eles ainda no caminho, chegou a nova a Davi, dizendo-se: Absalão feriu a todos os filhos do rei, e nenhum deles ficou.
他們還在路上,就有風聲傳到 大衛 那裏,說:「 押沙龍 擊殺了王所有的兒子,沒有留下一個。」
