22Joab fell to the ground on his face, and did obeisance, and blessed the king: and Joab said, Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your sight, my lord, king, in that the king has performed the request of his servant.
23So Joab arose and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.
24The king said, Let him turn to his own house, but let him not see my face. So Absalom turned to his own house, and didn`t see the king`s face.
25Now in all Israel there was none to be so much praised as Absalom for his beauty: from the sole of his foot even to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him.
26When he cut the hair of his head (now it was at every year`s end that he cut it; because it was heavy on him, therefore he cut it); he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels, after the king`s weight.
27To Absalom there were born three sons, and one daughter, whose name was Tamar: she was a woman of a beautiful face.
28Absalom lived two full years in Jerusalem; and he didn`t see the king`s face.
