2 Samuel 14:23-33

So Joab
<03097>

arose
<06965> (8799)

and went
<03212> (8799)

to Geshur
<01650>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

Absalom
<053>

to Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let him turn
<05437> (8735)

to his own house
<01004>_,

and let him not see
<07200> (8799)

my face
<06440>_.

So Absalom
<053>

returned
<05437> (8735)

to his own house
<01004>_,

and saw
<07200> (8804)

not the king's
<04428>

face
<06440>_.

But in all Israel
<03478>

there was none
<0376>

to be so much
<03966>

praised
<01984> (8763)

as Absalom
<053>

for his beauty
<03303>_:

from the sole
<03709>

of his foot
<07272>

even to the crown of his head
<06936>

there was no blemish
<03971>

in him. {But...: Heb. And as Absalom there was not a beautiful man in all Israel to praise greatly}

And when he polled
<01548> (8763)

his head
<07218>_,

(for it was at every year's
<03117> <03117>

end
<07093>

that he polled
<01548> (8762)

[it]: because [the hair] was heavy
<03513> (8804)

on him, therefore he polled
<01548> (8765)

it:) he weighed
<08254> (8804)

the hair
<08181>

of his head
<07218>

at two hundred
<03967>

shekels
<08255>

after the king's
<04428>

weight
<068>_.

And unto Absalom
<053>

there were born
<03205> (8735)

three
<07969>

sons
<01121>_,

and one
<0259>

daughter
<01323>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Tamar
<08559>_:

she was a woman
<0802>

of a fair
<03303>

countenance
<04758>_.

So Absalom
<053>

dwelt
<03427> (8799)

two full
<03117>

years
<08141>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and saw
<07200> (8804)

not the king's
<04428>

face
<06440>_.

Therefore Absalom
<053>

sent
<07971> (8799)

for Joab
<03097>_,

to have sent
<07971> (8800)

him to the king
<04428>_;

but he would
<014> (8804)

not come
<0935> (8800)

to him: and when he sent again
<07971> (8799)

the second time
<08145>_,

he would
<014> (8804)

not come
<0935> (8800)_.

Therefore he said
<0559> (8799)

unto his servants
<05650>_,

See
<07200> (8798)_,

Joab's
<03097>

field
<02513>

is near
<0413>

mine
<03027>_,

and he hath barley
<08184>

there; go
<03212> (8798)

and set
<03341> (8685)

it on fire
<0784>_.

And Absalom's
<053>

servants
<05650>

set
<03341> (8686)

the field
<02513>

on fire
<0784>_.

{near...: Heb. near my place}

Then Joab
<03097>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to Absalom
<053>

unto [his] house
<01004>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Wherefore have thy servants
<05650>

set
<03341> (8689)

my field
<02513>

on fire
<0784>_?

And Absalom
<053>

answered
<0559> (8799)

Joab
<03097>_,

Behold, I sent
<07971> (8804)

unto thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Come
<0935> (8798)

hither, that I may send
<07971> (8799)

thee to the king
<04428>_,

to say
<0559> (8800)_,

Wherefore am I come
<0935> (8804)

from Geshur
<01650>_?

[it had been] good
<02896>

for me [to have been] there still: now therefore let me see
<07200> (8799)

the king's
<04428>

face
<06440>_;

and if there be
<03426>

[any] iniquity
<05771>

in me, let him kill
<04191> (8689)

me.

So Joab
<03097>

came
<0935> (8799)

to the king
<04428>_,

and told
<05046> (8686)

him: and when he had called
<07121> (8799)

for Absalom
<053>_,

he came
<0935> (8799)

to the king
<04428>_,

and bowed
<07812> (8691)

himself on his face
<0639>

to the ground
<0776>

before
<06440>

the king
<04428>_:

and the king
<04428>

kissed
<05401> (8799)

Absalom
<053>_.
