2 Samuel 19:9-11

Darby Translation

⁹ And all the people were at strife throughout the tribes of Israel, saying, The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land because of Absalom.

¹⁰ And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle; and now why are ye silent as to bringing the king back?

¹¹ And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak to the elders of Judah saying, Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house? seeing the speech of all Israel is come to the king, to his house.
