2 Samuel 15:1-2

New American Standard Bible

Absalom’s Conspiracy

15 Now it came about after this that ^(A)Absalom provided for himself a chariot and horses, and fifty men ^[a]to run ahead of him. ² And Absalom used to rise early and ^(B)stand beside the road to the gate; and when any man who had a lawsuit was to come before the king for judgment, Absalom would call out to him and say, “From what city are you?” And he would say, “Your servant is from one of the tribes of Israel.”
