Absalom said to Joab, “I sent a message to you. I asked you to come here. I wanted to send you to the king. I wanted you to ask him why he asked me to come home from Geshur. {I can’t see him, so} it would have been better for me to stay in Geshur. Now let me see the king. If I have sinned, then he can kill me!”
“But maybe you don’t want to serve the Lord. You must choose for yourselves today. Today you must decide who you will serve.

You must choose for yourselves. But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord!”
