2 Samuel 14:21-24

21Then the king said to Joab, “All right! I will do this thing! Go and bring back the young man Absalom!

22Then Joab bowed down with his face toward the ground and thanked the king. Joab said, “Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your sight, my lord the king, because the king has granted the request of your servant!”

23So Joab got up and went to Geshur and brought Absalom back to Jerusalem.

24But the king said, “Let him go over to his own house. He may not see my face.” So Absalom went over to his own house; he did not see the king’s face.
