2 Samuel 14:21-24
Evangelical Heritage Version
21 The king said to Joab, “All right! I will do this. Go and bring back the young man Absalom.”
22 Joab fell down with his face to the ground. He bowed down and blessed the king and said, “Today your servant has become aware that I have found favor in your sight, my lord the king, because the king has carried out the request of his servant.”
23 So Joab got up and went to Geshur and brought Absalom back to Jerusalem.
24 But the king said, “He must go to his own house. He is not to see me face-to-face.” So Absalom went to his own house, and he did not see the face of the king.
