8For the battle was there scattered over the face of all the country: and the wood devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.Select 2 Samuel 18:8

9And Absalom met the servants of David. And Absalom rode upon a mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak, and his head caught hold of the oak, and he was taken up between the heaven and the earth; and the mule that was under him went away.Select 2 Samuel 18:9

10And a certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, Behold, I saw Absalom hanged in an oak.Select 2 Samuel 18:10

11And Joab said unto the man that told him, And, behold, thou sawest him, and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? and I would have given thee ten shekels of silver, and a girdle.Select 2 Samuel 18:11

12And the man said unto Joab, Though I should receive a thousand shekels of silver in mine hand, yet would I not put forth mine hand against the king’s son: for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Beware that none touch the young man Absalom.Select 2 Samuel 18:12
