2 Samuel 18:12
"The man said to Joab, "Though I should receive a thousand pieces of silver in my hand, I still wouldn't put forth my hand against the king's son; for in our hearing the king commanded you and Abishai and Ittai, saying, 'Beware that none touch the young man Absalom.'"

Gill's Exposition
And the man said unto Joab,.... Disdaining his proposal: though I should receive a thousand shekels of silver in mine hand; or such a sum should be offered to me;
the Arabic version is a million: yet would I not put forth my hand against the king's son; to smite him, and slay him: for in our hearing the king charged thee, and Abishai, and Ittai; his three generals: saying, beware that none touch the young man Absalom; so as to slay him; they were charged to abstain from it themselves, and to watch and observe others, and keep them from doing it.
