2 Samuel 14:24-28

24And the kingH4428 saidH559, Let him turnH5437 to his own houseH1004, and let him not seeH7200 my faceH6440. And AbsalomH53 withdrew to his own houseH1004, and sawH7200 not the king's faceH6440.

25But in all IsraelH3478 there wasH1961 none to beH1961 so much praisedH1984 as AbsalomH53 for his beauty: from the soleH3709 of his footH7272 even to the crown of his head there wasH1961 no blemishH3971 in him.

26And when he shavedH1548 his headH7218 (for it wasH1961 at every year's endH7093 that he shavedH1548 it, because it wasH1961 heavyH3513 on him, therefore he shavedH1548 it), he weighedH8254 the hairH8181 of his headH7218 at twoH3967 hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 after the king's weightH68.

27And to AbsalomH53 there wereH1961 bornH3205 threeH7969 sonsH1121, and oneH259 daughterH1323, whose nameH8034 was TamarH8559: she was a womanH802 of a beautifulH3303 countenance.

28So AbsalomH53 dweltH3427 two full yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389, and did not seeH7200 the king's faceH6440.
