2 Samuel 18:9-17

And Absalom
<053>
met
<07122> (8735)
the servants
<06440> <05650>
of David
<01732>_.
And Absalom
<053>
rode
<07392> (8802)
upon a mule
<06505>_,
and the mule
<06505>
went
<0935> (8799)
under the thick boughs
<07730>
of a great
<01419>
oak
<0424>_,
and his head
<07218>
caught hold
<02388> (8799)
of the oak
<0424>_,
and he was taken up
<05414> (8714)
between the heaven
<08064>
and the earth
<0776>_;
and the mule
<06505>
that [was] under him went away
<05674> (8804)_.
And a certain
<0259>
man
<0376>
saw
<07200> (8799)
[it], and told
<05046> (8686)
Joab
<03097>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold, I saw
<07200> (8804)
Absalom
<053>
hanged
<08518> (8803)
in an oak
<0424>_.
And Joab
<03097>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the man
<0376>
that told
<05046> (8688)
him, And, behold, thou sawest
<07200> (8804)
[him], and why didst thou not smite
<05221> (8689)
him there to the ground
<0776>_?
and I would have given
<05414> (8800)
thee ten
<06235>
[shekels] of silver
<03701>_,
and a
<0259>
girdle
<02290>_.
And the man
<0376>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joab
<03097>_,
Though
<03863>
I should receive
<08254> (8802)
a thousand
<0505>
[shekels] of silver
<03701>
in mine hand
<03709>_,
[yet] would I not put forth
<07971> (8799)
mine hand
<03027>
against the king's
<04428>
son
<01121>_:
for in our hearing
<0241>
the king
<04428>
charged
<06680> (8765)
thee and Abishai
<052>
and Ittai
<0863>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Beware
<08104> (8798)
that none [touch] the young man
<05288>
Absalom
<053>_.
{receive: Heb. weigh upon mine hand} {Beware...: Heb. Beware whosoever ye be of, etc}
Otherwise
<0176>
I should have wrought
<06213> (8804)
falsehood
<08267>
against mine own life
<05315>_:
for there is no matter
<01697>
hid
<03582> (8735)
from the king
<04428>_,
and thou thyself wouldest have set
<03320> (8691)
thyself against [me].
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Joab
<03097>_,
I may not tarry
<03176> (8686)
thus with thee
<06440>_.
And he took
<03947> (8799)
three
<07969>
darts
<07626>
in his hand
<03709>_,
and thrust
<08628> (8799)
them through the heart
<03820>
of Absalom
<053>_,
while he [was] yet alive
<02416>
in the midst of the oak
<0424>_.
{with...: Heb. before thee} {midst: Heb. heart}
And ten
<06235>
young men
<05288>
that bare
<05375> (8802)
Joab's
<03097>
armour
<03627>
compassed about
<05437> (8799)
and smote
<05221> (8686)
Absalom
<053>_,
and slew
<04191> (8686)
him.
And Joab
<03097>
blew
<08628> (8799)
the trumpet
<07782>_,
and the people
<05971>
returned
<07725> (8799)
from pursuing
<07291> (8800)
after
<0310>
Israel
<03478>_:
for Joab
<03097>
held back
<02820> (8804)
the people
<05971>_.
And they took
<03947> (8799)
Absalom
<053>_,
and cast
<07993> (8686)
him into a great
<01419>
pit
<06354>
in the wood
<03293>_,
and laid
<05324> (8686)
a very
<03966>
great
<01419>
heap
<01530>
of stones
<068>
upon him: and all Israel
<03478>
fled
<05127> (8804)
every one
<0376>
to his tent
<0168>_.
