David Authorizes Absalom’s Return
21 Then the king addressed Joab, “Look! I’ll do this thing that you’ve requested.[a] Go bring back the young man Absalom.”
22 At this, Joab fell on his face to the ground, prostrating himself to bless the king, and then[b] said, “Today your servant realizes that he’s found favor with you, your majesty, in that the king has acted on the request of his servant.” 23 Then Joab got up, went to Geshur, and brought Absalom back to Jerusalem.
