2 Samuel 19:40-43
Legacy Standard Bible

40 Now the king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went on with him; and all the people of Judah and also (A)half the people of Israel [a]accompanied the king. 41 And behold, all the men of Israel came to the king and said to the king, “(B)Why had our brothers (C)the men of Judah stolen you away, and caused the king and his household and all David’s men with him to pass over the Jordan?” 42 Then all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, “Because (D)the king is a close relative to [b]us. Why then [c]are you angry about this matter? Have we eaten at all at the king’s expense, or has [d]anything been taken for us?” 43 But the men of Israel answered the men of Judah and said, “[e](E)We have ten parts in the king, therefore [f]we also have more claim on David than you. Why then did you treat us with contempt? Was it not [g]our word first to have [h]our king return?” Yet the words of the men of Judah were harsher than the words of the men of Israel.

2 Samuel 19:40-43
Christian Standard Bible

40 The king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went with him. All the troops of Judah and half of Israel’s escorted the king. 41 Suddenly, all the men of Israel came to the king. They asked him, “Why did our brothers, the men of Judah, take you away secretly and transport the king and his household across the Jordan, along with all of David’s men?”

42 All the men of Judah responded to the men of Israel, “Because the king is our relative. Why does this make you angry? Have we ever eaten anything of the king’s or been honored at all?” [a]

43 The men of Israel answered the men of Judah, “We have ten shares in the king,(A) so we have a greater claim to David than you. Why then do you despise us? Weren’t we the first to speak of restoring our king?” (B) But the words of the men of Judah were harsher than those of the men of Israel.
