וַיָּקׇם יוֹאָב וַיָּבֹא אֶל־אַבְשָׁלוֹם הַבָּיְתָה וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו לָמָּה הִצִּיתוּ עֲבָדֶיךָ אֶת־הַחֶלְקָה אֲשֶׁר־לִי בָּאֵֽשׁ׃
Yoav got up and went to Avsholom in [his] house. He said to him, why did your servants set my plantation on fire?"

וַיֹּאמֶר אַבְשָׁלוֹם אֶל־יוֹאָב הִנֵּה שָׁלַחְתִּי אֵלֶיךָ ׀ לֵאמֹר בֹּא הֵנָּה וְאֶשְׁלְחָה אֹתְךָ אֶל־הַמֶּלֶךְ לֵאמֹר לָמָּה בָּאתִי מִגְּשׁוּר טוֹב לִי עֹד אֲנִי־שָׁם וְעַתָּה אֶרְאֶה פְּנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאִם־יֶשׁ־בִּי עָוֺן וֶהֱמִתָֽנִי׃
Avsholom said to Yoav, "Behold I sent [a message] to you saying, 'Come here and I will send you to king saying, 'Why have you brought me from Geshur? It would be better for me if I were still there. And now, let me see the king's face and if I have a sin [then] kill me.' "

וַיָּבֹא יוֹאָב אֶל־הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיַּגֶּד־לוֹ וַיִּקְרָא אֶל־אַבְשָׁלוֹם וַיָּבֹא אֶל־הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיִּשְׁתַּחוּ לוֹ עַל־אַפָּיו אַרְצָה לִפְנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיִּשַּׁק הַמֶּלֶךְ לְאַבְשָׁלֽוֹם׃ {ס}
Yoav came to the king and told him [the message]. He [Dovid] summoned Avsholom. He came to the king he prostrated himself on his face to the ground before the king, and the king kissed Avsholom.

והמיתני. ויהרוג אותי המלך:
