27. Absalom had three sons and one daughter. His daughter’s name was Tamar. She was a beautiful woman.

28. So Absalom lived in Jerusalem for two full years without seeing King David.

29. Then Absalom sent for Joab. Absalom wanted to send Joab to the king. But Joab would not come. Absalom sent a message a second time. But Joab still refused to come.

30. Then Absalom said to his servants, “Look, Joab’s field is next to mine. He has barley growing there. Go burn it.” So Absalom’s servants set fire to Joab’s field.
