2 Samuel 19:4-6

International Standard Version

⁴ Meanwhile, the king veiled his face and kept on crying loudly, “My son Absalom! Absalom my son, my son!”

⁵ Joab went up to the palace and rebuked the king: “Today you’ve humiliated your entire army who just saved your life, the lives of your sons and daughters, and the lives of your wives and mistresses! ⁶ You love those who hate you and hate those who love you! You’ve made it abundantly clear today that your officers and the men under them^[a] mean nothing to you! I’ve learned today that you would rather have Absalom alive today and all the rest of us dead!
