2 Samuel 14:32-33

Context
14:32 Absalom said to Joab, “Look, I sent a message to you saying, ‘Come here so that I can send you to the king with this message: 1  “Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me if I were still there.”’ Let me now see the face of the king. If I am at fault, let him put me to death!”

14:33 So Joab went to the king and informed him. The king 2  summoned Absalom, and he came to the king. Absalom 3  bowed down before the king with his face toward the ground and the king kissed him. 4 

1 tn Heb “saying.”

2 tn Heb “he.” Joab, acting on behalf of the king, may be the implied subject.

3 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Absalom) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

4 tn Heb “Absalom.” For stylistic reasons the name has been replaced by the pronoun (“him”) in the translation.
