2 Samuel 18:8-10

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁸ For the battle spread over the face of all the country, and the forest devoured more men that day than did the sword.

⁹ Then Absalom [unavoidably] met the servants of David. Absalom rode on a mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak, and Absalom’s head caught fast [in a fork] of the oak; and the mule under him ran away, leaving him hanging between the heavens and the earth.

¹⁰ A certain man saw it and told Joab, Behold, I saw Absalom hanging in an oak.
