2 Samuel 14:22 In-Context

20 But he did it in order to straighten out this whole matter. Your Majesty is as wise as the angel of God and knows everything that happens."
21 Later on the king said to Joab, "I have decided to do what you want. Go and get the young man Absalom and bring him back here."
22 Joab threw himself to the ground in front of David in respect, and said, "God bless you, Your Majesty! Now I know that you are pleased with me, because you have granted my request."
23 Then he got up and went to Geshur and brought Absalom back to Jerusalem.
24 The king, however, gave orders that Absalom should not live in the palace. "I don't want to see him," the king said. So Absalom lived in his own house and did not appear before the king.
