2 Samuel 18:15-17

International Children’s Bible

¹⁵ Ten young men who carried Joab’s armor also gathered around Absalom. They struck him and killed him.

¹⁶ Then Joab blew the trumpet. So the troops stopped chasing Absalom’s Israelites. ¹⁷ Then Joab’s men took Absalom’s body. They threw it into a large pit in the forest. Then they filled the pit with many stones. All the Israelites who followed Absalom ran away and went home.
