2 Samuel 19:10-12

21st Century King James Version

¹⁰ And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore, why speak ye not a word of bringing the king back?”

¹¹ And King David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, “Speak unto the elders of Judah, saying, ‘Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house, seeing the speech of all Israel has come to the king, even to his house?

¹² Ye are my brethren, ye are my bones and my flesh. Why then are ye the last to bring back the king?’
