2 Samuel 14:32-33

New American Standard Bible

³² Absalom ^[a]answered Joab, “Behold, I sent for you, saying, ‘Come here, so that I may send you to the king, to say, “Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me still to be there.”’ Now then, let me see the king’s face, ^(A)and if there is guilt in me, he can have me executed.” ³³ So when Joab came to the king and told him, he summoned Absalom. Then Absalom came to the king and prostrated himself ^[b]with his face to the ground before the king; and ^(B)the king kissed Absalom.
