2 SAMUEL 19:2 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the victory that day was turned into mourning unto all the people: for the people heard say that day how the king was grieved for his son.”
So the victory that day was turned into mourning for all the people, for the people heard that day that the king was grieving for his son — The entire army learns of David's grief, and their victory becomes mourning. The psychological shift is immediate: the soldiers' triumph is negated by the king's sorrow. The people's joy dies as they hear of David's weeping.
