2 Samuel 19:40-42

Revised Geneva Translation

⁴⁰ Then the king went to Gilgal, and Chimham went with him. And all the people of Judah crossed over with the king, and also half the people of Israel.

⁴¹ And behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, “Why have our brethren, the men of Judah, stolen you away, and have brought the king and his household and all David’s men with him over Jordan?”

⁴² And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, “Because the king is a close relative to us. And why now are you angry for this matter? Have we eaten at the king’s expense? Or have we taken any bribes?”
