Evil shall slay the wicked
Read 2 Samuel 18

- The end of every treachery, betrayal, conspiracy, and wickedness is always evil.
- All the people who conspired against David – Saul, Abner, Ishbosheth, Absalom- all ended their lives tragically.
- Absalom, David’s son, rebelled against his father, pursued him from the throne and slept with his concubines.
- At the end, Absalom died in disgrace with his head caught in an oak tree and his body hanging in the air – vs 9, And Absalom met the servants of David. And Absalom rode upon a mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak, and his head caught hold of the oak, and he was taken up between the heaven and the earth; and the mule that was under him went away.
