2 Samuel 14:32

Absalom answered Joab , Behold , I sent word to you, Come here , that I may send you to the king , to ask , Why have I come from Geshur ? It would be better for me to be there still . Now therefore let me go into the presence of the king , and if there is guilt in me, let him put me to death .

Absalom said to Joab, “Look, I sent word to you and said, ‘Come here so I can send you to the king to ask, “Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me if I were still there!”` Now then, I want to see the king`s face, and if I am guilty of anything, let him put me to death.”

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.
