2 Samuel 18:8-10

World English Bible

⁸ For the battle was there spread over the surface of all the country, and the forest devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.

⁹ Absalom happened to meet David’s servants. Absalom was riding on his mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak; and his head caught hold of the oak, and he was hanging between the sky and earth; and the mule that was under him went on. ¹⁰ A certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, “Behold, I saw Absalom hanging in an oak.”
