2 Samuel 19:42-43
Lexham English Bible

Did we take by any means anything that was not ours?”[a] 43 Then the people of Israel answered the men of Judah and said, “I have ten times as much[b] in the king, moreover in David I have more than you. Why did you treat me with contempt by not giving me first chance[c] to bring back my king?” But the words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the word of the men of Israel.
