2 Samuel 18:10-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 18
10
When a certain man saw
him,
he informed Joab and said, 'Behold, I saw Absalom hanging in an oak.'
11
Then Joab said to the man who had informed him, 'So behold, you saw
him!
Why then did you not strike him there to the ground? And
it would have been
my duty to give you ten
pieces
of silver and a belt.'
12
But the man said to Joab, 'Even if I were to receive a thousand
pieces of
silver in my hand, I would not put out my hand against the king’s son; for in our hearing the king commanded you, Abishai, and Ittai, saying, ‘ Protect the young man Absalom for me!’
King James Version
Chapter 18
10
And a certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, Behold, I saw Absalom hanged in an oak.
11
And Joab said unto the man that told him, And, behold, thou sawest him, and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? and I would have given thee ten shekels of silver, and a girdle.
12
And the man said unto Joab, Though I should receive a thousand shekels of silver in mine hand, yet would I not put forth mine hand against the king's son: for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Beware that none touch the young man Absalom.

11
"You just saw him!" Joab exclaimed. "Why didn’t you strike him to the ground right there? I would have given you ten silver pieces and a belt!"
12
The man replied to Joab, "Even if I had the weight of a thousand pieces of silver in my hand, I would not raise my hand against the king’s son. For we heard the king command you, Abishai, and Ittai, ‘Protect the young man Absalom for me.’

10
One of David’s men saw what had happened and told Joab, 'I saw Absalom dangling from a great tree.'

What?' Joab demanded. 'You saw him there and didn’t kill him? I would have rewarded you with ten pieces of silver and a hero’s belt!'
12
I would not kill the king’s son for even a thousand pieces of silver, ' the man replied to Joab. 'We all heard the king say to you and Abishai and Ittai, ‘For my sake, please spare young Absalom.’
