5And the king ordered Joab and Abishai and Ittai, “Deal gently for my sake with the young man Absalom. ” And all the people heard when the king gave orders to all the commanders about Absalom.
12But the man said to Joab, “Even if I felt in my hand the weight of a thousand pieces of silver, I would not reach out my hand against the king’s son, for in our hearing the king commanded you and Abishai and Ittai, ‘For my sake protect the young man Absalom. ’
14Joab said, “I will not waste time like this with you. ” And he took three javelins in his hand and thrust them into the heart of Absalom while he was still alive in the oak.
