KJV - 1 Kings 2:31

And the king said unto him, Do as he hath said, and fall upon him, and bury him; that thou mayest take away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from me, and from the house of my father.

And the king told him, Follow his instructions, attack him, and kill him. This will help remove the guilt of Joab's unjust killing from me and my family's household.
