2 Samuel 18:15-17

Good News Translation

¹⁵ Then ten of Joab's soldiers closed in on Absalom and finished killing him.

¹⁶ Joab had the trumpet blown to stop the fighting, and his troops came back from pursuing the Israelites. ¹⁷ They took Absalom's body, threw it into a deep pit in the forest, and covered it with a huge pile of stones. All the Israelites fled to their own hometowns.
