²¹ The king said to Joab, ‘Very well, I will do it. Go, bring back the young man Absalom.’

²² Joab fell with his face to the ground to pay him honour, and he blessed the king. Joab said, ‘Today your servant knows that he has found favour in your eyes, my lord the king, because the king has granted his servant’s request.’
