2 Samuel 14:27--15:4

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>_.
And it came to pass after this
<0310>_,
that Absalom
<053>
prepared
<06213> (8799)
him chariots
<04818>
and horses
<05483>_,
and fifty
<02572>
men
<0376>
to run
<07323> (8801)
before
<06440>
him.
And Absalom
<053>
rose up early
<07925> (8689)_,
and stood
<05975> (8804)
beside
<03027>
the way
<01870>
of the gate
<08179>_:
and it was [so], that when any man
<0376>
that had a controversy
<07379>
came
<0935> (8800)
to the king
<04428>
for judgment
<04941>_,
then Absalom
<053>
called
<07121> (8799)
unto him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Of what
<0335>
city
<05892>
[art] thou? And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thy servant
<05650>
[is] of one
<0259>
of the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{came: Heb. to come}
And Absalom
<053>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, See
<07200> (8798)_,
thy matters
<01697>
[are] good
<02896>
and right
<05228>_;
but [there is] no man [deputed] of the king
<04428>
to hear
<08085> (8802)
thee. {there...: or, none will hear thee from the king downward}
Absalom
<053>
said
<0559> (8799)
moreover, Oh that I were made
<07760> (8799)
judge
<08199> (8802)
in the land
<0776>_,
that every man
<0376>
which hath any suit
<07379>
or cause
<04941>
might come
<0935> (8799)
unto me, and I would do him justice
<06663> (8689)_!
