2 Samuel 18:14-17

14“I won’t wait for you!” Joab said. So he took three darts in his hand and thrust them through Absalom’s heart while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak.

15Then ten young men who were Joab’s armor-bearers surrounded Absalom, struck and finished him off.

16Then Joab blew the shofar and the troops returned from pursuing Israel, for Joab held back the troops.

17They took Absalom and threw him into a deep pit in the forest and piled over him a very large heap of stones. Then all Israel fled, everyone to his tent.
