2 Samuel 14:30 WEB

²⁸  Absalom lived two full years in Jerusalem; and he didn't see the king's face.

²⁹  Then Absalom sent for Joab, to send him to the king; but he would not come to him: and he sent again a second time, but he would not come.

³⁰  Therefore he said to his servants, Behold, Joab's field is near mine, and he has barley there; go and set it on fire. Absalom's servants set the field on fire.

³¹  Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom to his house, and said to him, Why have your servants set my field on fire?

³²  Absalom answered Joab, Behold, I sent to you, saying, Come here, that I may send you to the king, to say, Why am I come from Geshur? it were better for me to be there still. Now therefore let me see the king's face; and if there be iniquity in me, let him kill me.
