31Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom unto his house, and said unto him, Wherefore have thy servants set my field on fire?Select 2 Samuel 14:31

32And 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.Select 2 Samuel 14:32

33So 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.Select 2 Samuel 14:33
