2 Samuel 14:30

Therefore he said unto his servants, See, Joab’s field is near mine, and he hath barley there; go and set it on fire. And Absalom’s servants set the field on fire.

KJV

dixit servis suis : Scitis agrum Joab juxta agrum meum, habentem messem hordei : ite igitur, et succendite eum igni. Succenderunt ergo servi Absalom segetem igni. Et venientes servi Joab, scissis vestibus suis, dixerunt : Succenderunt servi Absalom partem agri igni.

Vulgate

καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ Ἀβεσσαλώμ Ἴδετε ἡ μερὶς ἐν ἀγρῷ τοῦ Ἰωὰβ ἐχόμενά μου, καὶ αὐτῷ κριθαὶ ἐκεῖ· πορεύεσθε καὶ ἐμπρήσατε αὐτὴν ἐν πυρί· καὶ ἐνέπρησαν αὐτὰς οἱ παῖδες Ἀβεσσαλώμ, τὴν μερίδα. καὶ παραγίνονται οἱ δοῦλοι Ἰωὰβ πρὸς αὐτὸν διερρηχότες τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτῶν καὶ εἶπαν Ἐνεπύρισαν οἱ δοῦλοι Ἀβεσσαλὼμ τὴν μερίδα ἐν πυρί.

LXX

Therefore he said unto his servants, See, Joab’s field is near mine, and he hath barley there; go and set it on fire. And Absalom’s servants set the field on fire.
