2 Samuel 19:10-12

10However, Absalom, whom we anointed to rule us, has died in battle. Why is no one talking about bringing back the king?”

11What all Israel was saying reached the king at his house. So King David sent ⌞this message⌟ to the priests Zadok and Abiathar: “Ask the leaders of Judah, ‘Why should you be the last ⌞tribe⌟ to bring the king back to his palace?

12You are my relatives, my own flesh and blood. Why should you be the last to bring back the king?’
