2 Samuel 4:10 · בְּשֹׂרָֽה׃when someone told me, ‘Look, Saul is dead,’ and thought he was a bearer of good news, I seized him and put him to death at Ziklag. That was his reward for his news!2 Samuel 18:20 · בְּשֹׂרָ֤הBut Joab replied, “You are not the man to take good news today. You may do it another day, but you must not do so today, because the king’s son is dead.”2 Samuel 18:22 · בְּשׂוֹרָ֥הAhimaaz son of Zadok, however, persisted and said to Joab, “No matter what, please let me also run behind the Cushite!” “My son,” Joab replied, “why do you want to run, since you will not receive a reward?”2 Samuel 18:25 · בְּשׂוֹרָ֣הSo he called out and told the king. “If he is alone,” the king replied, “he bears good news.” As the first runner drew near,2 Samuel 18:27 · בְּשׂוֹרָ֥הThe watchman said, “The first man appears to me to be running like Ahimaaz son of Zadok.” “This is a good man,” said the king. “He comes with good news.”2 Kings 7:9 · בְּשֹׂרָ֣הFinally, they said to one another, “We are not doing what is right. Today is a day of good news. If we are silent and wait until morning light, our sin will overtake us. Now, therefore, let us go and tell the king’s household.”
