2 And Abessalom rose early, and stood by the side of the way of the gate: and it came to pass that every man who had a cause, came to the king for judgment, and Abessalom cried to him, and said to him, Of what city art thou? And he said, Thy servant of one of the tribes of Israel.

3 And Abessalom said to him, See, thy affairs right and clear, yet thou hast no one of the king to hear thee.
