Listen to 2 Samuel 17:21
21 Depois que eles partiram, Aimaaz e Jônatas, saindo do poço, foram e avisaram a Davi; e disseram-lhe: Levantai-vos, e passai depressa as águas, porque assim e assim aconselhou contra vós Aitofel.

2 Samuel 17:21 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 17:21

And it came to pass after they were departed
The servants of Absalom:

that they came up out of the well;
the sons of the priests, being informed by the woman that they were gone; Josephus F19 says they were drawn up by the woman with a rope:

and went and told King David;
who was now in the plain of the wilderness, perhaps near Jericho, and not a great way from Jordan, to whom they related the whole of their message:

and said unto David;
as they were directed:

arise, and pass quickly over the water;
the river Jordan:

for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you;
to come with twelve thousand men, and fall upon him that very night; and it was not certain his counsel would be rejected; and therefore it was advisable for David to prepare against the worst.

2 Samuel 17:21 In-Context

19 E a mulher, tomando a tampa, colocou-a sobre a boca do poço, e espalhou grão triturado sobre ela; assim nada se soube.
20 Chegando, pois, os servos de Absalão �quela casa, perguntaram � mulher: Onde estão Aimaaz e Jônatas? Respondeu-lhes a mulher: Já passaram a corrente das águas. E, havendo-os procurado sem os encontrarem, voltaram para Jerusalém.
21 Depois que eles partiram, Aimaaz e Jônatas, saindo do poço, foram e avisaram a Davi; e disseram-lhe: Levantai-vos, e passai depressa as águas, porque assim e assim aconselhou contra vós Aitofel.
22 Então se levantou Davi e todo o povo que com ele estava, e passaram o Jordão; e ao raiar da manhã não faltava nem um só que não o tivesse passado.
23 Vendo, pois, Aitofel que não se havia seguido o seu conselho, albardou o jumento e, partindo, foi para casa, para a sua cidade; e, tendo posto em ordem a sua casa, se enforcou e morreu; e foi sepultado na sepultura de seu pai.
