2 Samuel 14:26 in Context — 2 Samuel 14
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.
27 E nasceram-lhe a Absalão três filhos, e uma filha que se chamou Tamar, a qual era bela de ver.
28 E esteve Absalão por espaço de dois anos em Jerusalém, e não viu a cara do rei.
