← 2 Samuel 19:10	2 Samuel 19:11 (KJV)	2 Samuel 19:12 →
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.	Ye [are] my brethren, ye [are] my bones and my flesh: wherefore then are ye the last to bring back the king?
