← 2 Samuel 19:9	2 Samuel 19:10 (KJV)	2 Samuel 19:11 →
And all the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, The king saved us out of the hand of our enemies, and he delivered us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land for Absalom.	And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why speak ye not a word of bringing the king back?	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 is come to the king, [even] to his house.
