2 Samuel 15:1-3

1After this it happened that Absalom provided himself with chariots and horses, and fifty men to run before him.

2Now Absalom would rise early and stand beside the way to the gate. So it was, whenever anyone who had a lawsuit came to the king for a decision, that Absalom would call to him and say, “What city are you from?” And he would say, “Your servant is from such and such a tribe of Israel.”

3Then Absalom would say to him, “Look, your case is good and right; but there is no deputy of the king to hear you.”
