2 Samuel 18:7 WBT

⁵  And the king commanded Joab and Abishai and Ittai, saying, [Deal] gently for my sake with the young man, [even] with Absalom. And all the people heard when the king gave all the captains charge concerning Absalom.

⁶  So the people went out into the field against Israel: and the battle was in the wood of Ephraim;

⁷  Where the people of Israel were slain before the servants of David, and there was there a great slaughter that day of twenty thousand [men].

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

⁹  And 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 suspended between the heaven and the earth; and the mule that [was] under him went away.
