Scriptures

³² And Absalom answered Joab, Behold, I sent unto thee, saying, Come hither, that I may send thee to the king, to say, Wherefore am I come from Geshur? it had been good for me to have been there still: now therefore let me see the king's face; and if there be any iniquity in me, let him kill me.

³² And Absalom replied, “Because I wanted you to ask the king why he brought me back from Geshur if he didn’t intend to see me. I might as well have stayed there. Let me see the king; if he finds me guilty of anything, then let him kill me.”

³² Absalom answered Joab, "Behold, I sent for you, saying, ’Come here, that I may send you to the king, to say, "Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me still to be there."’ Now therefore, let me see the king’s face, and if there is iniquity in me, let him put me to death."

³² And Absalom answered Joab, "Look, I sent to you, saying, ’Come here, so that I may send you to the king, to say, "Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me to be there still." ’ Now therefore, let me see the king’s face; but if there is iniquity in me, let him execute me."
