And Joab fell to the ground on his face, and bowed himself, and thanked the king: and Joab said, To day thy servant knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, my lord, O king, in that the king hath fulfilled the request of his servant.
Joab se postró rostro en tierra, se inclinó y agradeció al rey. Joab dijo: 'Hoy sé que he hallado favor delante de ti, mi señor el rey, porque has concedido lo que tu siervo pidió.'
Joab reconoció con gratitud que había encontrado favor ante el rey porque este le concedió su petición.
