2 Samuel 14:29-33

29Then AbsalomH53 sentH7971 for JoabH3097, to sendH7971 him to the kingH4428; but he wouldH14 not comeH935 to him: and he sentH7971 againH5750 a secondH8145 timeH8145, but he wouldH14 not comeH935. 30Therefore he saidH559 unto his servantsH5650, SeeH7200, Joab’s field is near mine, and he hath barleyH8184 there; go and setH3341 it on fireH784. And Absalom’s servantsH5650 setH3341 the field on fireH784. 31Then JoabH3097 aroseH6965, and cameH935 to AbsalomH53 unto his houseH1004, and saidH559 unto him, Wherefore have thy servantsH5650 setH6965 my field on fireH784? 32And AbsalomH53 answered JoabH3097, Behold, I sentH7971 unto thee, sayingH559, ComeH935 hither, that I may sendH7971 thee to the kingH4428, to sayH559, Wherefore am I comeH935 from GeshurH1650? it were betterH2896 for me to be there stillH5750. NowH6258 thereforeH6258 let me seeH7200 the king’sH4428 faceH6440; and if there be iniquityH5771 in me, let him killH4191 me. 33So JoabH3097 cameH935 to the kingH4428, and toldH5046 him; and when he had calledH7121 for AbsalomH53, he cameH935 to the kingH4428, and bowedH7812 himself on his faceH6440 to the groundH776 before the kingH4428: and the kingH4428 kissedH5401 AbsalomH53.
