2 Samuel 19:4-6

Modern English Version

⁴ The king covered his face and called with a loud voice, “My son Absalom, my son, my son!”

⁵ Then Joab came to the king in his house and said, “Today you have shamed the faces of all of your servants who saved your life today, as well as the lives of your sons and daughters, the lives of your wives, and the lives of your concubines, ⁶ by loving those who hated you and hating those who love you. You have shown today that commanders and servants are nothing to you. I know that if Absalom were alive instead today and all of us were dead, then this would be right in your eyes.
