«So Joab arose and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.»
«So Joab came to the king, and told him: and when he had called for Absalom, he came to the king, and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king: and the king kissed Absalom.»
«Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.»
«Then said Hushai unto Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, Thus and thus did Ahithophel counsel Absalom and the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counselled.»
«Then tidings came to Joab: for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he turned not after Absalom. And Joab fled unto the tabernacle of the LORD, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.»
«Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee? / But Absalom pressed him, that he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.»
«So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.»
«Therefore he said unto his servants, See, Joab's field is near mine, and he hath barley there; go and set it on fire. And Absalom's servants set the field on fire.»
«Then said Absalom to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do.»
«Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom unto his house, and said unto him, Wherefore have thy servants set my field on fire? / And Absalom answered Joab, Behold, I sent unto thee, saying, Come hither, that I may send thee to the king, to say, Wherefore am I come from Geshur? it had been good for me to have been there still: now therefore let me see the king's face; and if there be any iniquity in me, let him kill me.»
