2 Samuel 14:22-24

New American Standard Bible 1995

²² Joab fell on his face to the ground, prostrated himself and blessed the king; then Joab said, “Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your sight, O my lord, the king, in that the king has performed the ^[a]request of his servant.” ²³ So Joab arose and went to ^(A)Geshur and brought Absalom to Jerusalem. ²⁴ However the king said, “Let him turn to ^(B)his own house, and let him not see my face.” So Absalom turned to his own house and did not see the king’s face.
