2 Samuel 14:30 in Context — 2 Samuel 14

28 Absalom demeura deux ans à Jérusalem, sans voir la face du roi.

29 Il fit demander Joab, pour l’envoyer vers le roi; mais Joab ne voulut point venir auprès de lui. Il le fit demander une seconde fois; et Joab ne voulut point venir.

30 Absalom dit alors à ses serviteurs: Voyez, le champ de Joab est à côté du mien; il y a de l’orge; allez et mettez-y le feu. Et les serviteurs d’Absalom mirent le feu au champ.

31 Joab se leva et se rendit auprès d’Absalom, dans sa maison. Il lui dit: Pourquoi tes serviteurs ont-ils mis le feu au champ qui m’appartient?

32 Absalom répondit à Joab: Voici, je t’ai fait dire: Viens ici, et je t’enverrai vers le roi, afin que tu lui dises: Pourquoi suis-je revenu de Gueschur? Il vaudrait mieux pour moi que j’y fusse encore. Je désire maintenant voir la face du roi; et s’il y a quelque crime en moi, qu’il me fasse mourir.
