2 Samuel 14:21-33

21And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto JoabH3097, Behold now, I have doneH6213 this thingH1697: goH3212 therefore, bringH7725 the young manH5288 AbsalomH53 againH7725. 22And JoabH3097 fellH5307 to the groundH776 on his faceH6440, and bowedH7812 himself, and thankedH1288 the kingH4428: and JoabH3097 saidH559, To dayH3117 thy servantH5650 knowethH3045 that I have foundH4672 graceH2580 in thy sightH5869, my lordH113, O kingH4428, in that the kingH4428 hath fulfilledH6213 the requestH1697 of his servantH5650.12 23So JoabH3097 aroseH6965 and wentH3212 to GeshurH1650, and broughtH935 AbsalomH53 to JerusalemH3389. 24And the kingH4428 saidH559, Let him turnH5437 to his own houseH1004, and let him not seeH7200 my faceH6440. So AbsalomH53 returnedH5437 to his own houseH1004, and sawH7200 not the king’sH4428 faceH6440.

25But in all IsraelH3478 there was noneH376 to be so muchH3966 praisedH1984 as AbsalomH53 for his beautyH3303: from the soleH3709 of his footH7272 even to the crown of his headH6936 there was no blemishH3971 in him.3 26And when he polledH1548 his headH7218, (for it was at every year’sH3117 endH7093 that he polledH1548 it: because the hair was heavyH3513 on him, therefore he polledH1548 it:) he weighedH8254 the hairH8181 of his headH7218 at two hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 after the king’sH4428 weightH68. 27And unto AbsalomH53 there were bornH3205 threeH7969 sonsH1121, and oneH259 daughterH1323, whose nameH8034 was TamarH8559: she was a womanH802 of a fairH3303 countenanceH4758.

28So AbsalomH53 dweltH3427 two fullH3117 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389, and sawH7200 not the king’sH4428 faceH6440. 29Therefore AbsalomH53 sentH7971 for JoabH3097, to have sentH7971 him to the kingH4428; but he wouldH14 not comeH935 to him: and when he sent againH7971 the second timeH8145, he wouldH14 not comeH935. 30Therefore he saidH559 unto his servantsH5650, SeeH7200, Joab’sH3097 fieldH2513 is nearH413 mineH3027, and he hath barleyH8184 there; goH3212 and setH3341 it on fireH784. And Absalom’sH53 servantsH5650 setH3341 the fieldH2513 on fireH784.4 31Then JoabH3097 aroseH6965, and cameH935 to AbsalomH53 unto his houseH1004, and saidH559 unto him, Wherefore have thy servantsH5650 setH3341 my fieldH2513 on fireH784? 32And AbsalomH53 answeredH559 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 had been goodH2896 for me to have been there still: now therefore let me seeH7200 the king’sH4428 faceH6440; and if there beH3426 any 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 faceH639 to the groundH776 beforeH6440 the kingH4428: and the kingH4428 kissedH5401 AbsalomH53.
