2 Samuel 14:31-33
31Then Joab arose, came to Absalom at his house and said to him, “Why have your servants set my 1field on fire?”
32Absalom 2answered Joab, “Behold, I sent for you, saying, ‘Come here, that I may send you to the king, to say, “Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me still to be there.”’ Now therefore, let me see the king’s face, 3and if there is iniquity in me, let him put me to death.”
33So when Joab came to the king and told him, he called for Absalom. Thus he came to the king and prostrated himself on his face to the ground before the king, and 4the king kissed Absalom.
