* Therefore Absalom sent for Joab , to have sent him to the king ; but he would not come to him : and when he sent again the second time , he would not come . * Therefore he said unto his servants , See , Joab 's field is near mine , and he hath barley there ; go and set it on fire . And Absalom 's servants set the field on fire . * Then Joab arose , and came to Absalom unto his house , and said unto him , Wherefore have thy servants set my field on fire ? * And Absalom answered Joab , Behold , I sent unto thee , saying , Come hither , that I may send thee to the king , to say , Wherefore am I come from Geshur ? it had been good for me to have been there still : now therefore let me see the king 's face ; and if there be any iniquity in me , let him kill me . * So Joab came to the king , and told him : and when he had called for Absalom , he came to the king , and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king : and the king kissed Absalom .
