2 Samuel 18:25-27

Lexham English Bible

²⁵ The sentry called and told the king, and the king said, “If he is alone, good news is in his mouth.” He kept coming closer.^{[a] 26} Then the sentinel saw another man running, so the sentinel called to the gatekeeper and said, “Look, a man running alone.” The king said, “This one also is bringing good news.” ²⁷ The sentinel said, “I am seeing that the running of the first is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zakok.” The king said, “He is a good man; he will come, for good news.”
