2 Samuel 14:24 in Context — 2 Samuel 14

22 E Joabe se prostrou em terra sobre seu rosto, e fez reverência, e depois que abençoou ao rei, disse: Hoje há entendido teu servo que achei favor em teus olhos, rei senhor meu; pois que fez o rei o que seu servo disse.

23 Levantou-se logo Joabe, e foi a Gesur, e voltou a Absalão a Jerusalém.

24 Mas o rei disse: Vá-se à sua casa, e não veja meu rosto. E voltou-se Absalão à sua casa, e não viu o rosto do rei.

25 E não havia em todo Israel homem tão elogiado por sua beleza como Absalão; desde a planta de seu pé até ao topo da cabeça não havia nele defeito.

26 E quando se cortava o cabelo, (o qual fazia ao fim de cada ano, pois lhe incomodava, e por isso se o cortava,) pesava o cabelo de sua cabeça duzentos siclos de peso real.
