    10And one man seeth, and declareth to Joab, and saith, `Lo, I saw Absalom hanged in an oak.'

    13or I had done against my soul a vain thing, and no matter is hid from the king, and thou -- thou dost station thyself over-against.'

    14And Joab saith, `Not right -- I tarry before thee;' and he taketh three darts in his hand, and striketh them into the heart of Absalom, while he `is' alive, in the midst of the oak.
