The King James Version Bible

2 Samuel 14:26-30

  1. And when he polled his head, (for it was at every year's end that he polled it: because the hair was heavy on him, therefore he polled it:) he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels after the king's weight.

  2. And unto Absalom there were born three sons, and one daughter, whose name was Tamar: she was a woman of a fair countenance.

  3. So Absalom dwelt two full years in Jerusalem, and saw not the king's face.

  4. Therefore Absalom sent for Joab, to have sent him to the king; but he would not come to him: and when he sent again the second time, he would not come.

  5. Therefore he said unto his servants, See, Joab's field is near mine, and he hath barley there; go and set it on fire. And Absalom's servants set the field on fire.
