15And ten young men that bare Joab’s armour compassed about and smote Absalom, and slew him.Select 2 Samuel 18:15

18Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and reared up for himself a pillar, which is in the king’s dale: for he said, I have no son to keep my name in remembrance: and he called the pillar after his own name: and it is called unto this day, Absalom’s place.Select 2 Samuel 18:18
