2 Samuel 18:9 WBT

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.

¹⁰  And a certain man saw [it], and told Joab, and said, Behold, I saw Absalom hanging in an oak.

¹¹  And Joab said to the man that told him, And behold, thou sawest [him], and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? and I would have given thee ten [shekels] of silver, and a girdle.
