2 Samuel 14:27

23So Joab arose and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.

24The king said, “Let him return to his own house, but let him not see my face.” So Absalom returned to his own house, and didn’t see the king’s face.

25Now in all Israel there was no one to be so much praised as Absalom for his beauty. From the sole of his foot even to the crown of his head there was no defect in him.

26When he cut the hair of his head (now it was at every year’s end that he cut it; because it was heavy on him, therefore he cut it), he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels, after the king’s weight.

27Three sons were born to Absalom, and one daughter, whose name was Tamar. She was a woman with a beautiful face.

28Absalom lived two full years in Jerusalem, and he didn’t see the king’s face.

29Then Absalom sent for Joab, to send him to the king, but he would not come to him. Then he sent again a second time, but he would not come.

30Therefore he said to his servants, “Behold, Joab’s field is near mine, and he has barley there. Go and set it on fire.” So Absalom’s servants set the field on fire.

31Then Joab arose and came to Absalom to his house, and said to him, “Why have your servants set my field on fire?”
