9And Absalom went to meet the servants of David: and Absalom was mounted on his mule, and the mule came under the thick boughs of a great oak; and his head was entangled in the oak, and he was suspended between heaven and earth; and the mule passed on from under him.
10And a man saw it, and reported to Joab, and said, Behold, I saw Absalom hanging in an oak.
— 2 Samuel 18:11 —
12And the man said to Joab, Were I even to receive a thousand shekels of silver, I would not lift my hand against the king’s son; for in our ears the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Take care of the young man Absalom for me,
13so as to do no harm to his life: and nothing of the matter will be concealed from the king, and thou wilt set thyself against me.
