29 Therefore Absalom sent for Joab to send him to the King, but he would not come to him: and when he sent again, he would not come.
30 Therefore he said unto his servants, Behold, Joab hath a [a]field by my place, and hath barley therein: go, and set it [b]on fire: and Absalom’s servants set the field on fire.
31 Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom unto his house, and said unto him, Wherefore have thy servants burnt my field with fire?
