2 Samuel 14:29-31

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁹ Then Absalom sent for Joab, to send him to the king, but he would not come to him. So he sent again a second time, but he would not come. ³⁰ Therefore he said to his servants, “See, ^(A)Joab’s ^[a]field is next to mine, and he has barley there; go and set it on fire.” So Absalom’s servants set the ^[b]field on fire. ³¹ Then Joab arose, came to Absalom at his house and said to him, “Why have your servants set my ^[c]field on fire?”
