← 2 Samuel 15:3 2 Samuel 15:4 (KJV) 2 Samuel 15:5 →
And Absalom said unto him, See, thy matters are good and right; but there is no man deputed of the king to hear thee.
Absalom said moreover, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man which hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice!
