Berean Standard Bible
2 Samuel 14:25-27
25Now there was not a man in all Israel as handsome and highly praised as Absalom. From the sole of his foot to the top of his head, he did not have a single flaw. 26And when he cut the hair of his head—he shaved it every year because his hair got so heavy—he would weigh it out to be two hundred shekels,1 according to the royal standard.
27Three sons were born to Absalom, and a daughter named Tamar, who was a beautiful woman.
