Shmuel Bais 15:4-6

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁴ Avshalom said moreover, Oh that I were made Shofet in the land, that every ish which hath any riv or mishpat might come unto me, and I would bring him justice!

⁵ And it was so, that when any ish came near to him to prostrate himself before him, he put forth his yad, and took him, and kissed him.

⁶ And on this manner did Avshalom to kol Yisroel that came to HaMelech for mishpat; so Avshalom stole the lev anshei Yisroel.
